The q proportion, often denoted as "q," refers to the complement of a proportion in statistics. If "p" represents the proportion of successes in a given scenario, then "q" is calculated as ( q = 1 - p ), representing the proportion of failures. This concept is commonly used in binomial distributions and hypothesis testing. Understanding both p and q is essential for calculating probabilities and making inferences about populations.
Two ratios, p/q and r/s (q and s non-zero) are equal if p/q - r/s = 0.
If 30 out of 100 organisms are red, then the proportion of red organisms can be represented as ( q = \frac{30}{100} = 0.3 ) or 30%. Therefore, ( q ) is 0.3.
The formula for the standard deviation of a proportion ( p ) in a sample is given by ( \sqrt{\frac{pq}{n}} ), where ( p ) is the proportion of successes, ( q ) is the proportion of failures (i.e., ( q = 1 - p )), and ( n ) is the sample size. This formula applies when the sample size is sufficiently large and the expected number of successes and failures (i.e., ( np ) and ( nq )) are both greater than 5, ensuring that the normal approximation is valid. It is used to estimate the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of the sample proportion.
The question seems to be missing context regarding what "q" represents. If "q" refers to a proportion or percentage of red organisms, you could express it as a fraction of the total: for 59 red organisms out of 100, q would be 0.59 or 59%. If all 100 organisms are red, then q would be 1 or 100%. Please clarify if you need a different interpretation.
It would have been possible to give a simple answer if we could see what proportion of the way from A to B the question was about. But, thanks to the wonderful (not!) browser used by this site, we cannot and so this is a general answer.If the question was about p/q of the way, then the coordinates of the point are [(14*(q-p) + 4*p)/q, (1*(q-p) + 23*p)/q].

The proportion of the population with a standard of living below the poverty line The Head Count Index (H) is the proportion of the population whose economic welfare (y) is less than the poverty line (z). If q people are deemed to be poor in a population of size n then H=q/n. For computing the Head Count Index, estimates of individual economic welfare and the poverty line are required.
95% CI for Proportion is p +/- E; where E = Z*sqrt(p*q/n). P=.6, q=.4, n=144, Z=1.96. Therefore E=1.96*sqrt(0.4*0.6/144) = 0.08. So, 95% CI = .6 +/- 0.08 or .52 to .68.

the three kinds of proportions are indirect proportion, direct proportion and thepartitive proportion
If n*p is greater than or equal to 5 AND n*q is greater than or equal to 5, you can use a normal distribution as an estimate for the binomial distribution. Recall, n is the number of trials, p is the probability of success of a trial, and q is 1-p.
There cannot be a "proportion of something": proportion is a relationship between two things, and how you solve it depends on whether they (or their transformations) are in direct proportion or inverse proportion.
