The third number amounts to 180. To explain, let the third number equal 9x where x is an integer. The prime factorization of 48 is 2*2*2*2*3, while 264 equals 2*2*2*3*11. Then, 9x can be rewritten as 3*3*x, leading to 2*2*2*2*3*3*11*x equaling 7920y for some integer y. Thus, 1584x equals 7920y which simplifies to x = 7920y / 1584 = 5y. With the GCD being 12, x must include 4 as a factor. Since x is a multiple of 5, one possibility is 20, making y equal to 4. Hence, if x = 20, the third number becomes 9*20 = 180, which can be confirmed.
Answer:
(B) 0.2843
Step-by-step explanation:
Let d represent the difference in proportions between Country X and Country Y for adults who first married from ages 18 to 32.
The hypotheses can be stated as
: d=0.15
: d<0.15
The test statistic can be computed with the formula
where
- p1 corresponds to the sample proportion from Country X (0.36)
- p2 corresponds to the sample proportion from Country Y (0.26)
- p indicates the pooled proportion of p1 and p2 (
)
- n1 is the sample size from Country X (60)
- n2 is the sample size from Country Y (50)
Thus,
is approximately 0.5646
The p-value for this test statistic is approximately 0.2843
The p-value indicates the likelihood that the difference in proportions between a random sample of 60 adults from Country X and a sample of 50 adults from Country Y who were first married at ages 18 to 32 is at least 0.15.
