Answer:  0.04

Step-by-step explanation:

  • The standard error for the proportion indicates how much the sample proportions vary around the mean of the population.

Given: Sample size: n= 150

Number of females in the sample: x= 90

Proportion of females = \hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{90}{150}=0.6

Standard error of proportions:

SE=\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p})}{n}}, where \hat{p} represents sample proportion and n is the sample size.

By substituting the relevant values, we have

SE=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.6(1-0.6)}{150}}

SE=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.6 (0.4)}{150}}

SE=\sqrt{0.0016}=0.04

Therefore, the standard error for the proportion amounts to 0.04.

The standard error is entirely inaccurate at 100% since it is not feasible for females to constitute 90% of the sample population.

The indicated function y1(x) is a solution of the given differential equation. Use reduction of order or formula (5) in Section
AnnZ [9071]
y2 = C1xe^(4x) Step-by-step explanation: Knowing that y1 = e^(4x) satisfies the differential equation y'' - 8y' + 16y = 0, we need to derive the second solution y2 using the reduction of order technique. Let y2 = uy1. Since y2 is a solution to the differential equation, it holds that y2'' - 8y2' + 16y2 = 0. By substituting for y2, its derivatives become y2 = ue^(4x), y2' = u'e^(4x) + 4ue^(4x), and y2'' = u''e^(4x) + 8u'e^(4x) + 16ue^(4x). Plugging these into the differential equation gives us u''e^(4x) = 0. Let w = u', so w' = u''. This results in w' e^(4x) = 0, leading to w' = 0. Integrating gives w = C1. Since w = u', this implies u' = C1, and integrating once more results in u = C1x. Therefore, y2 = ue^(4x) becomes y2 = C1xe^(4x), which is the second solution.

For each store what is the ratio of the number of cans to the price? Super saver 12 pack 4 for $10, shop smart 24 pack 2 for $9,
tester [8808]

At Super Saver, 4 packs are priced at $10, which gives us 12 × 4 = 48 cans for ratio calculation. The ratio translates to 48 cans for $10, or 4.8 cans per dollar. For Shop Smart, similarly, 24 × 2 results in 48 cans priced at $9, creating a ratio of 48 cans for $9, or 5 1/3 cans per dollar. At Price Busters, 12 × 3 results in 36 cans for $9, translating to a cost of 3 cans per dollar. Overall, Shop Smart offers the best value per can, followed by Super Saver, and lastly Price Busters.
