For many important processes that occur in the body, direct measurement of characteristics of the process is not possible. In many cases, however, we can measure a biomarker, a biochemical substance that is relatively easy to measure and is associated with the process of interest. Bone turnover is the net effect of two processes: the breaking down of old bone, called resorption, and the building of new bone, called formation. A biomarker for bone formation measured was osteocalcin (OC), measured in the blood. The units are nanograms per milliliter (ng/ml). For the 31 subjects in the study the mean was 33.4 ng/ml. Assume that the standard deviation is known to be 19.6 ng/ml.

Required:
Give the margin of error and find a 95% confidence interval for the mean TRAP amount in young women represented by this sample.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The margin of error is  [tex]E = 6.9 [/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is  [tex] 26.5  <  \mu < 40.3 [/tex]  

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The sample size is  n  =  31

     The mean is  [tex]\mu = 33.4 \ ng/ml[/tex]

      The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 19.6 \ ng/ml[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  95% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } *  \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]E = 1.96  *  \frac{19.6  }{\sqrt{31 } }[/tex]

=>  [tex]E = 6.9 [/tex]

Generally 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex]\= x -E <  \mu <  \=x  +E[/tex]

=> [tex] 33.4  - 6.9 <  \mu < 33.4  +  6.9 [/tex]

=> [tex] 26.5  <  \mu < 40.3 [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A school newspaper estimates that their academic team will win 25 out of 30 matches for the season. After 15 matches, they have won 12. If the team continues winning at this rate, what will be the percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over? Round to the nearest percent​

Answers

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

The percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over will be 4%.

What is the percentage?

The quantity of anything is stated as though it were a fraction of a hundred. A quarter of 100 can be used to express the ratio. Per 100 is what the term percent signifies. The symbol ‘%’ is used to symbolize it.

The percentage is given as,

Percentage (P) = [Final value - Initial value] / Initial value x 100

A school newspaper estimates that their academic team will win 25 out of 30 matches for the season.

Then the percentage will be given as,

P = (25 / 30) x 100

P = 0.8333 x 10

P = 83.33%

After 15 matches, they won 12. Then the percentage will be given as,

P = (12 / 15) x 100

P = 0.80 x 100

P = 80%

If the team continues winning at this rate. Then the percent error of the newspaper's estimate once the season is over will be

P = [(83.33 - 80) / (83.33)] x 100

P = 0.04 x 100

P = 4%

If the sum and product
of roots of a quadratic
equation are -7/2 and
5/2 respectively,then
the equation is :​

Answers

Answer:

The equation is y = 2x² + 7x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

In the quadratic equation y = ax² + bx + c

The roots of it are the values of x at y = 0The sum of the two roots = [tex]\frac{-b}{a}[/tex]The product of the two roots = [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex]

∵ The sum of the roots is [tex]\frac{-7}{2}[/tex]

∵ The product of the roots is [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

→ By using the rules above

∴ [tex]\frac{-b}{a}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{-7}{2}[/tex]

∴ [tex]\frac{c}{a}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{2}[/tex]

→ Compare between them

a = 2

∴ -b = -7 ⇒ divide both sides by -1

b = 7

c = 5

∵ The form of the quadratic function is y = ax² + bx + c

→ Substitute the values of a, b, and c in it

∴ y = 2x² + 7x + 5

The equation is y = 2x² + 7x + 5

How do I solve this problem?

Answers

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the number by dividing 8 by 0.04

8/0.04

= 200

Then, find 1% of 200 by multiplying it by 0.01:

200(0.01)

= 2

So, 1% of the number is 2.

Answer:

The answer is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

4%x5=20% and 8x5=40, 20%x5=100% and 40x5=200 and 1% means you move the decimal to the left twice so it is 2, my explanation  might be wrong but I know my answer is correct:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the answer because:

This is a fraction equal to

225 miles ÷ 7 hours

We want a unit rate where  1 is in the denominator,  so we divide top and bottom by 7 .

225/7 = 225/7 and 7/7 =  32.142857/1

Therefore, the answer is  32.142857 miles per hour.

  [tex]P(X = 4) = 0.31599[/tex]

b

 [tex]P(X  \ge 2) = 0.9921  [/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The proportion in favor of carbon tax is  [tex]p = 0.72[/tex]

    The sample size is  n  = 6

Generally the distribution of poll  follows a binomial distribution  

i.e  

         [tex]X  \~ \ \ \  B(n , p)[/tex]

and the probability distribution function for binomial  distribution is  

      [tex]P(X = x) =  ^{n}C_x *  p^x *  (1- p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Here C stands for combination hence we are going to be making use of the combination function in our calculators      

   Generally the probability that the number answering in the affirmative is  4 is mathematically represented as

       [tex]P(X = 4) =  ^{6}C_4 *  (0.72)^4 *  (1- 0.72)^{6-4}[/tex]

=>     [tex]P(X = 4) = 0.31599[/tex]

   Generally the probability that the number answering in the affirmative is At least two is mathematically represented as

     [tex]P(X  \ge 2) =  1 -  P( X <  2 ) [/tex]

     [tex]P(X  \ge 2) = 1- [ P(X =  0 ) + P( X = 1)] [/tex]

=>  [tex]P(X  \ge 2) = 1- [ [ 1 *  1 * 0.00048 ]+ [ 6 * 0.72 * 0.00172] [/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X  \ge 2) = 1- [ 0.00791 ] [/tex]

=>    [tex]P(X  \ge 2) = 0.9921  [/tex]
