Researchers were investigating whether there is a significant difference between two medications, R and S, designed to reduce fleas found on cats. From a sample of 300 cat owners, the researchers randomly assigned 150 cat owners to use medication R on their cats and the remaining cat owners to use medication S. For the cats using medication R, 88 percent had no fleas. For the cats using medication S, 90 percent had no fleas. Which of the following is the most appropriate method for analyzing the results?

A two-sample z -test for a difference in population proportions

A two-sample z-test for a difference in sample proportions

A one-sample z-test for a sample proportion

A one-sample z-test for a population proportion

A one-sample z-test for a difference in sample proportions

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A) A two-sample  z -test for a difference in population proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine whether a difference in proportions is significant, the two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions is the most appropriate method for the analysis.

Answer 2

The most appropriate method for analyzing the results is A. A two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions.

What is the hypothesis?

In statistics, hypothesis testing is the process by which an analyst tests an assumption about a population's parameter.

In this scenario, we have two different treatments (medication R and S) applied to two separate samples (150 cat owners each) and we want to determine if there is a significant difference in the proportion of cats with no fleas between the two groups.

This is a classic scenario for a two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions, which tests the hypothesis that the difference in proportions between two independent populations is equal to zero.

Thus, a two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions.

Hence, the correct answer would be option (A)

Suppose f(x)=x^2 what is the graph of g(x)=f(2x)


i have seen other descriptions saying that you should substitute 2x into the equation, but where does that 2x come from and what is next?

Answers

Answer:

Since g(x) = f(2x), this means we substitute 2x in place of x for f(x):

g(x) = f(2x) = (2x)² = 4x²

a. Negative correlation
b. Positive correlation
c. Zero correlation
d. All of the above

Answers

Scatter plot is missing, so i have attached it.

Answer:

C : zero correlation

Step-by-step explanation:

A correlation is said to be negative between two variables when they are related in such a manner that when one variable increases, the other variable decreases and vice versa.

However, a correlation is said to be Positive when one variable increases as the other increases as well and vice versa which means they both move in the same direction.

However, in the image of the scatter plot attached, we see that it is neither positive or negative correlation as there is no clear visible relationship between the variables on the x and y axis.

Thus, we can say there is zero correlation.

Let f(x)=18/1+3^e-0.1x What is the point of maximum growth rate for the logistic function f(x)? Show all work. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth

Answers

Answer:

(0, 4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

*The equation can be put into Desmos, to find the point, but the work to prove it is here*

f(x)=c/1+Ae^-Bx

Y=C

C=18      A=3      -B=-0.1

*Replace x with 0 in the equation, so you know 0 is the x value, and it leads you to the y value*

f(0)=18/1+3e^-o.1(0)

= 18/1+3e^0

=18/1+3(1)

=18/1+3

=18/4

=4.5

x=0    y=4.5

Maximum growth rate = (x,y) --> (0, 4.5)

Find the simple interest and amount when principal = Rs. 6000, rate = 6% per annum and time = 4 years

Answers

Given:

Principal = Rs. 6000

Rate of simple interest = 6% per annum.

Time = 4 years

To find:

The simple interest and amount.

Solution:

Formula for simple interest:

[tex]I=\dfrac{P\times r\times t}{100}[/tex]

Where, P is principal, r is the rate of interest and t is the number of years.

Putting P=6000, r=6 and t=4, we get

[tex]I=\dfrac{6000\times 6\times 4}{100}[/tex]

[tex]I=60\times 6\times 4[/tex]

[tex]I=1440[/tex]

Now,

[tex]Amount=Principal+Interest[/tex]

[tex]Amount=6000+1440[/tex]

[tex]Amount=7440[/tex]

Therefore, the simple interest is Rs. 7440 and the amount is Rs 7440.
