A study was conducted to investigate whether a new drug could significantly reduce pan in people with arthritis. From a group of 500 people with arthritis 250 were randomly assigned to receive the drug (group 1) and the remaining people were assigned a placebo (group 2). After one month of treatment, 225 people in group 1 reported pain relief and 150 people in group 2 reported pain relief Let Pe represent the combined (or pooled) sample proportion for the two samples. Have the conditions for inference for testing the difference in population proportions been met?

a. No. The people in the study were not selected at random.
b. No. The number of people in the study was too large compared with the size of the population.
c. No. The normality of the sampling distribution cannot be assumed because Pe times each sample size is not sufficiently large.
d. No. The normality of the sampling distribution cannot be assumed because (1 - Pe) times each sample size is not sufficiently large.
d. Yes. All conditions for inference have been met.

d. Yes. All conditions for inference have been met.

Step-by-step explanation:

A study was conducted to investigate the effectiveness of a new drug whether it could significantly reduce pan in people with arthritis.

From a group of 500 people with arthritis 250 were randomly assigned to receive the drug (group 1) and the remaining people were assigned a placebo (group 2).

It is given that the people in the study were selected randomly.

The pooled proportion is given by

Pe = no. of people who reported pain relief in both groups/total number of people

Pe = (225 + 150)/500

Pe = 375/500

Pe = 0.75

Now let us check the condition np ≥ 10

250*0.75

187.5 ≥ 10

Satisfied

Now let us check the condition n(1 - p) ≥ 10

250(1 - 0.75)

250*0.25

62.5 > 10

Satisfied

Therefore, all conditions for inference have been met option d is the correct option.

(1,4) is on graph of f(x)

f(1) = 4

so 1/4 f(x)

1/4 f(1)

1/4. ×4

1

so point for function 1/4. f(x) is (1,1)

it will cost dollar $540

the living room is 3 which means if we divide 325/3 then we get $108

therefore if 1part of the living room cost $108 and 3 costed $325

then total 5part of the room will cost 5*108 which gives $540
