The subjects of a study by Dugoff et al. (A-5) were 10 obstetrics and gynecology interns at the University of Colorado Health Sc

iences Center. The researchers wanted to assess competence in performing clinical breast examinations. One of the baseline measurements was the number of such examinations performed.
The following data give the number of breast examinations performed for this sample of 10 interns.

Answer:

The 95 percent confidence interval for the mean of the population from which the study subjects may be presumed to have been drawn is (19.1269, 32.6730).

Step-by-step explanation:

Intern            No. of Breast

Number        Exams Performed               X²

1                         30                                  900

2                        40                                 1600

3                        8                                        64

4                        20                                   400

5                          26                                 676

6                           35                               1225

7                            35                               1225

8                            20                                400

9                             25                              625

<u>10                                 20                        400 </u>

<u>                                   </u><u> ∑ 259                  ∑ 7515</u>

Mean= X`= ∑x/n= 259/10= 25.9

Variance = s²= 1/n-1[∑X²- (∑x)²/n]

= 1/0[7515- (259)²/10]= 1/9[7515- 6708.1]

= 806.9/9=89.655= 89.66

Standard Deviation= √89.655= 9.4687

Hence

The value of t with significance level alpha= 0.05 and 9 degrees of freedom  is t(0.025,9)= 2.262

The 95 % Confidence interval is given by

x`±t(∝,n-1) s/√n

So Putting the values

25.9± 2.262( 9.4687/√10)

= 25.9 ±2.262 (2.9943)

= 25.9 ± 6.7730

= 25.9 +6.7730=32.6730

25.9 -6.7730= 19.1269

= 19.1269, 32.6730

The 95 percent confidence interval for the mean of the population from which the study subjects may be presumed to have been drawn is (19.1269, 32.6730).

H(t) = f(t) - g(t)

Taking out the greatest common factor, which is 20:
= 20[(25)(1.2)^t - (19)(1.15)^t]
This is the third choice.

Note that you cannot subtract the bases of the exponents, for example (1.2^t - 1.15^t) cannot be simplified into something like 0.05^t.

Paula weighed 65.5 kilograms before she started training she as lost 3500grams how much does she weigh
Alborosie
Hello!

We have the following data:

Paula weight (before training) = 65.5 kg
Weight lost by Paula (in training) = 3500 grams = 3.5 kg
Paula's weight (after training) =?

65.5 kg - 3.5 kg = 62 kg (Current weight)

At smith’s Mountain Lake Boat Rentals, it cost $25 per hour to rent a pontoon boat, plus a one-time
sergey [27]

Answer:

Jones family paid a total of $139

Step-by-step explanation:

Smith's Mountain Lake Boat provides Rental services that can be expressed as follows;

Total cost=cost per hour×number of hours rented+one time cleaning deal

For Benael's family;

Benael family total cost=Cost per hour×number of hours rented+one-time cleaning deal

where;

Benael family total cost=$226.50

Cost per hour=$25

Number of hours rented=11 am-6:30 pm=7 hours 30 minutes=7.5 hours

One time cleaning deal=x

Replacing;

226.50=(25×7.5)+x

187.5+x=226.50

x=226.50-187.5

x=39

One time cleaning deal=$39

For Jones family;

Jones family total cost=Cost per hour×number of hours rented+one-time cleaning deal

where;

Cost per hour=$25

Number of hours rented=9 am-1 pm=4 hours

One time cleaning deal=$39

Replacing;

Jones family total cost=(25×4)+39

Jones family total cost=$139

Jones family paid a total of $139
