Cushing's disease is characterized by muscular weakness due to adrenal or pituitary dysfunction. To provide effective treatment, it is important to detect childhood Cushing's disease as early as possible. Age at onset of symptoms and age at diagnosis (months) for 15 children suffering from the disease were given in an article "Treatment of Cushing's Disease in Childhood and Adolescence by Transphenoidal Microadenomectomy" (New Engl. J. of Med., 1984: 889). Here are the values of the differences between age at onset of symptoms and age at diagnosis:
-24 -12 -55 -15 -30 -60 -14 -21
-48 -12 -25 -53 -61 -69 -80
Calculate a 95% confidence interval for the population mean difference, and interpret the resulting bound.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Since the calculated value of t =-0.427 does not  fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude that there is enough evidence to show that mean difference in the  age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is  25 months  .

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is

Difference d= -24 -12 -55 -15 -30 -60 -14 -21 -48 -12 -25 -53 -61 -69 -80

∑ d= -579

 ∑d²= 29871

1) Let the hypotheses be

H0: ud= 25 against the claim    Ha: ud ≠25

H0 : mean difference in the  age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is  25 months  .

Ha:   mean difference in the  age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is not 25 months.

 

2) The degrees of freedom = n-1= 15-1= 14

3) The significance level is 0.05

4) The test statistic is

t= d`/sd/√n

The critical region is ║t║≤ t (0.025,14) = ±2.145

d`= ∑di/n= -579/15= -38.6

Sd= 23.178  (using calculators)

Therefore

t= d`/ sd/√n

t= -38.6/ 23.178√15

t= -1.655/3.872= -0.427

5) Since the calculated value of t =-0.427 does not  fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude that there is enough evidence to show that mean difference in the  age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is  25 months  .

Here, function is discontinuous at x = 3

If the function is continuous at x = 3 then,

k³ + 3 = [tex]\frac{16}{k^2-3}[/tex]

(k³ + 3)(k² - 3) = 16

k⁵ - 3k³ + 3k² - 9 = 16

Vertices A (-1,1) and Vertices B (-4,1) of Square ABCD are shown below. What is the perimeter?

Hint: find the Vertices C and D first, then find the perimeter. A square is the same length all around!

Answers

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance from (-4,1)to (-1,1) =|-4|-|-1|=3

Side of square =3

Since each side of square is equal.

3x4=12

If vertices A (-1,1) and vertices B (-4,1) of Square ABCD then  perimeter of the square ABCD is 12 units.

What is Distance?

The length along a line or line segment between two points on the line or line segment.

The distance between A and B is 3 units, so the distance between B and C must also be 3 units since the square has equal sides.

The coordinates of C are (-4, -2) since it is directly below B.

The distance between C and D is 5 units since it is a horizontal line between the x-coordinates of C and D.

The coordinates of D are (-1, -2) since it is directly to the right of C.

Now we have the coordinates of all four vertices

A (-1,1), B (-4,1), C (-4,-2), and D (-1,-2).

To find the perimeter, we add up the lengths of all four sides:

AB = BC = CD = AD

= √[(xB - xA)² + (yB - yA)²]

= √[(-4 - (-1))² + (1 - 1)²]

= 3

So the perimeter is P = AB + BC + CD + AD

= 3 + 3 + 5 + 3

= 14

Therefore, the perimeter of the square ABCD is 12 units.

How much will the car be worth in 3 years?
Submit

Answers

Answer:

$19500

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the depreciation rate is x per year, then we have:

28000*x² = 22000x² = 22000/28000x² = 0.7857x = √0.7857 x = 0.8864

Exponential function for this case is:

V(t) = 28000*0.8864^t, where V(t) - future value, t- number of years

Value of the car after 3 years:

V(3) = 28000*0.8864^3 V(3) = 19500

a bottle of soft drinks costs $2. the commission paid on one bottle is 2% of the cost price.find the commission on 24 bottles of soft drinks​

Answers

Answer:

$0.96

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the cost of the 24 bottles, by multiplying 24 by 2

24(2)

= 48

Find the commission by finding 2% of 48

48(0.02)

= 0.96

So, the commission will be $0.96

The commission on 24 bottles of soft drinks​ is $0.96.

How to find the commission on 24 bottles of soft drinks​?

Given:

a bottle of soft drinks costs $2. the commission paid on one bottle stands at 2% of the cost price.

First, we want to estimate the cost of the 24 bottles, by multiplying 24

by 2

[tex]= 24*(2)[/tex]

= 48

To find the commission by estimating 2% of 48

commission = 48*(0.02)

commission = 0.96

So, the commission will be $0.96.

Therefore, the commission on 24 bottles of soft drinks​ is $0.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determine the selling price of a four-year-old Honda Accord with mileage of 40,000 miles.

Given data :

Age= 4 year, Mileage=40,000 miles

Hence the selling price

= 20385.25049 - 0.03739 Mileage - 686.33668 age

=  20385.25049 - 0.03739(40,000)  - 686.33668 ( 4 )

It takes 3 hour 15 minutes to fly from city a to city b at constant speed. Find how long the journey takes if
A) the speed is 1×1÷2 times of the original speed and
B) if the speed is three-quarters of the original speed.

Answers

Answer:

a) t= 2hours and 10 minutes

b) t=4hours and 20 minutes

v1t1=v2t2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

rate = distance / time     distance is constant (a-b) so call it D

time = distance / rate      rate = speed (ie miles per hour = mph)

time = distance / speed      

A)  if the new speed is 1.5 of the original speed    

     original time = 3.25 hours  or 195 minutes

  3.25  = D / 1       new time = D/1.5       find new time

         3.25 is to D   as    new time is to  D/1.5

            3.25/D = new time / D/1.5                   multiple D/1.5 on both sides

            (3.25/D) ( D/1.5)      = new time           the distance D cancels

            3.25 (D / D) / 1.5   = new time

            3.25 / 1.5  = 2.167 hours   or 2 hours and 10 minutes

B)   if the speed is 3/4 the original speed

original time = 3.25 hours  or 195 minutes

  3.25  = D / 1       new time = D/(3/4)       find new time

         3.25 is to D   as    new time is to  D/0.75

            3.25/D = new time / D/0.75                       multiple D/0.75 on both sides

            (3.25/D) ( D/0.75)      = new time

            3.25 (D / D) / 0.75     = new time

            3.25 / 0.75  = 4.333 hours   or 4 hours and 20 minutes
