Answer:

a) We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion p is greatr than 0.3, so then the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.3  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.3  

Right tailed test

b) p_v =P(z>2.32)=0.0102  

c) So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interest is higher than 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a: Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion p is greatr than 0.3, so then the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.3  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.3  

Right tailed test

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

For this case the statistic is given by z_{calc}= 2.32

Part b: Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>2.32)=0.0102  

Part c

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.1 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interest is higher than 0.3

What is a reasonable estimate for the sum of 4 1/8+3 2/3+5 1/2
Bingel [31]
First, mentally add the whole numbers.
4+3+5=12
Now, look at the fractions. 1/8, 2/3, and 1/2.
2/3 is bigger than 1/2, so you can add in another whole number.
12+1=13
1/8 is tiny, and won't add a whole lot to the mix, so just leave that.
A reasonable estimate would be 13 1/8

Given point P (3, 4). What is the distance of point P from (a) x axis (b) y axis?
vova2212 [387]

Answer:

a) 3

b) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The point P is(3,4)

which means that 3 is the point P's x- coordinate and 4 is it's y-coordinate

Because we use the axes as our reference point when plotting points,

the distance of P from x-axis and y-axis would be the point itself.

Serrians triangle has a height of 3x-4 and the base length is 8x+4 what is the area of the triangle
kirill115 [55]
Area of a triangle is base × height ÷2
base=8x+4 x=-4/8 x=-1/2
height=3x-4 x=4/3

A=b×h÷2
A=(-1/2×4/3)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2
A=(-4/6)÷2/1 to divide by fractions flip the second and multiply
A=-4/6×1/2
A=-4/12
A=-1/3
