Answer:
a) p=0.39, where p the parameter of interest represent the true proportion of adults that would erase all their personal information online if they could
b) Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
Step-by-step explanation:
A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".
The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".
The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".
On this case the claim that they want to test is: "The true proportion of adults that would erase all their personal information online if they could is 0.39 or 39%". So we want to check if the population proportion is different from 0.39 or 0.39%, so this needs to be on the alternative hypothesis and on the null hypothesis we need to have the complement of the alternative hypothesis.
Part a. Express the original claim in symbolic form. Let the parameter represent the adults that would erase their personal information.
p=0.39, where p the parameter of interest represent the true proportion of adults that would erase all their personal information online if they could
Part b. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.
Null hypothesis:
And for the alternative hypothesis we have
Alternative hypothesis:
Answer:
∠RST = 120°
Step-by-step explanation:
We assume the positions of the lines and angles will match the attached figure. The angle addition theorem gives a relation that can be solved for x, then for the value of angle RST.
∠RSU +∠UST = ∠RST
__
78° + (3x -12)° = (6x +12)° . . . . . substitute given values into the above
54 = 3x . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by °, subtract 3x+12
108 = 6x . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2
120° = (6x +12)° = ∠RST . . . . add 12, show units
The measure of angle RST is 120 degrees.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Note that we don't actually need to know the value of x (18) in this problem. We only need to know the value of 6x.
