Answer:

a. f = 17.5/c

b. 8.75 N

Step-by-step explanation:

Inverse variation means one variable is proportional to the inverse of the other. The equation for that is ...

f = k(1/c) . . . . . . force (f) is proportional to the inverse of distance (c)

We find the value of k using data given for a specific instance.

3.5 N = k(1/(5 cm)) . . . . use the given values

17.5 N·cm = k . . . . . . multiply by the denominator

Then the equation of interest is ...

f = 17.5/c . . . . . . . where c is in cm, and f is in newtons

Using the above equation, we find the force to be ...

f = 17.5/2 = 8.75 . . . . newtons

<em>Additional comment</em>

We often look at several different kinds of proportionality:

y = kx . . . . direct
y = k(1/x) . . . . inverse
y = kx² . . . . proportional as the square
y = kx·z . . . . jointly proportional to x and z

and there are combinations of these, such as ...

y = kr²h . . . . jointly proportional to h and the square of r

You may have noticed that when x and y are inversely proportional, their product is a constant. y = k/x ⇒ xy = k

We have left off the units of k in the problem above. Sometimes it is a good idea to retain them, or to pay close attention to what they are. This can avoid using the wrong measures for the variables.

f = (17.5 N·cm)/(2 cm) = 8.75 N . . . . . units of cm cancel

A survey of 1,562 randomly selected adults showed that 522 of them have heard of a new electronic reader. The accompanying techn

tester [92]

Answer:

a) We want to test the claim that 35% of adults have heard of the new electronic reader, then the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.35$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.35$

And is a two tailed test

b) $z=\frac{0.334 -0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{1562}}}=-1.326$

c) $p_v =2*P(z$

d) Null hypothesis: $p=0.35$

e) Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, alpha.

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=1562 represent the random sample selected

X=522 represent the people who have heard of a new electronic reader

$\hat p=\frac{522}{1562}=0.334$ estimated proportion of people who have heard of a new electronic reader

$p_o=0.35$ is the value to verify

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

Part a

We want to test the claim that 35% of adults have heard of the new electronic reader, then the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.35$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.35$

And is a two tailed test

Part b

The statistic for this case is given :

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

Replacing the info given we got:

$z=\frac{0.334 -0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{1562}}}=-1.326$

Part c

We can calculate the p value using the laternative hypothesis with the following probability:

$p_v =2*P(z$

Part d

The null hypothesis for this case would be:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.35$

Part e

The best conclusion for this case would be:

Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the P-value is greater than the significance level, alpha.

An airline claims that the proportion of no-shows for passengers who booked on its flights is less than 0.06. In a random sample

Genrish500 [490]

Step 1:

In a sample of 380 randomly selected reservations, 19 were no-shows.

Step 2:

Proportion of no shows p<0.06.

Step 3:

Test Value

z(19/380)=0.05

Step 4:

Test statistics

a) 0.05-1.124=-1.074

b) 0.05-(-1.943) = 0.05+1.943=1.993

c)0.05-(-0.821)=0.05+0.821=0.871

d)0.05 - 0.222 = - 0.172

e)0.05 -(-1.571) = 0.05+1.571 = 1.621

The above data clearly mentions the test statistics associated with the given samples.
