rning. At the back of my house is a short, fairly narrow driveway approximately 300 yards long. I drive my car down this driveway in a westerly direction, yet when I stop the car at the end of the driveway it is facing east."
"Does the driveway go round in a circle?" asked the colleague.

"No," replied Monica, "it is absolutely straight."

erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

No. As the 95% CI include both negative and positive values, no proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference between them.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to construct a confidence interval for the difference of proportions.

The difference in the sample proportions is:

p_1-p_2=x_1/n_1-x_2/n_2=(183/217)-(322/398)=0.843-0.809\\\\p_1-p_2=0.034

The estimated standard error is:

\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{\frac{0.843*0.157}{217}+\frac{0.809*0.191}{398} } \\\\\sigma_{p_1-p_2}=\sqrt{0.000609912+0.000388239}=\sqrt{0.000998151} \\\\ \sigma_{p_1-p_2}=0.0316

The z-value for a 95% confidence interval is z=1.96.

Then, the lower and upper bounds are:

LL=(p_1-p_2)-z*\sigma_p=0.034-1.96*0.0316=0.034-0.062=-0.028\\\\\\UL=(p_1-p_2)+z*\sigma_p=0.034+1.96*0.0316=0.034+0.062=0.096

The confidence interval for the difference in proportions is

-0.028\leq p_1-p_2 \leq 0.096

<em>Can it be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group?</em>

No. It can not be concluded that there is a difference in the proportion of drivers who wear a seat belt at all times based on age group, as the confidence interval include both positive and negative values.

This means that we are not confident that the actual difference of proportions is positive or negative. No proportion is significantly different from the other to conclude there is a difference.

An insurance company collected data from a class of high school sophomores on whether or not they have a cell phone and whether
NeX [460]

Answer:

C. Those who have a car tend to have a cell phone.

Step-by-step explanation:

The relative frequency for a data set n is calculated by dividing each frequency x_i by n.

We have a table that relates the use of cars and cell phones.

First, we take from the table the population that has a car.

n = 18

Then, of the students who have a car, 12 have a cell phone and 6 do not have a cell phone.

Then we calculate the relative frequencies f_{x_i} for those who have a cell phone and those who do not.

______________________________________________

Relative frequency   Students with car  n = 18.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

C<em>ell phone     No cell phone      Total n</em>

 12/18                    6/18                     18

_______________________________________________

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency   Students with car  n = 18.

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

C<em>ell phone     No cell phone      Total n</em>

  0.666              0.333                   18

________________________________________________

Most students who have a car also have a cell phone.

Now we calculate the relative frequency for students who do not have a car.

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency  Students without a car  n = 7

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

<em>Cell phone       No cell phone             Total  n</em>

 2/7                     5/7                          7

_______________________________________________  

_______________________________________________

Relative frequency  Students without a car  n = 7

-------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

<em>Cell phone</em>      <em>  No</em> <em>cell phone           Total  n</em>

 0.286                 0.714                              7

_______________________________________________

Most students who do not have a car do not have a cell phone either.

<em>Then these data suggest that. Those who have a car tend to have a cell phone.</em>

A repair bill for a car is $648.45. The parts cost $265.95. The labor cost is $85 per hour. Write and solve an equation to find
zysi [14]

Answer:

( t - p ) /  85x =  h

( t - 265.95 ) /  85x  = h

648.45 - 265.95 / 85x = 3.32h

h = 3.32

Therefore ( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

Step-by-step explanation:

648.45 - 265.95

282.50 /85

= 3.32 hrs

Finding equation to find hours can be shown as

( t - p ) /  85x =  3.32

How we found equation to find total

Parts = 19 x 14 - 5/100 = 266- 0.05

648.45 - 265.95 = 282.5

282.5/85 = 3.323  near to 3,233529

Labour = 85x  = 17 (5 + x)

Equation = 17(5+ x) + 14(19) - 5/100 = 648.45 where x = 85

Equation = ( 85x x 3  1/3) + 265 - 19/20 = t

How is a calculation of net worth different from a day-to-day or month-to-month tallying of expenses?
alina1380 [7]
The difference in tallying of expenses from a day to day and month to month is the consistency. in a day to day basis it is consistent the time for a day is 24 hrs it will not change, so you will really know why the expenses goes up or down/ unlike for a month to month it is inconsistent,, some months have 30, 31 or 28 days in a month.
