Answer:

D. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

If the prisms are said to the similar, that means that the ratio/relation between their corresponding sides have to equal, so

$\frac{x}{1} = \frac{9}{3} = \frac{30}{10}$

We can easily use the part x/1 = 9/3 to make a cross-multiplication that would give us:

x = (1 * 9) / 3 = 9/3 = 3

So, the green prism is a dilated version of the blue one by a dilation/scale factor of 3.

Find the volume of the following compound shape.

Bess [88]

<h3>Given:</h3>

Cone
Cylinder

<h3>Volume of the cone:</h3>

$v = \frac{1}{3} \pi {r}^{2} h$

$v = \frac{1}{3} \times \pi \times {10}^{2} \times 10$

$v = 1047.20 \: {cm}^{3}$

<h3>Volume of the cylinder:</h3>

$v = \pi {r}^{2} h$

$v = \pi \times {10}^{2} \times 10$

$v = 3141.59 \: {cm}^{3}$

<h3>Total volume:</h3>

$v = 1047.20 + 3141.59$

$v = 4188.79 \: {cm}^{3}$

Hence, the volume of the given cone shape is 4188.79 cubic centimeters.

The number of events is 29, the number of trials is 298, the claimed population proportion is 0.10, and the significance leve

Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.0973 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{298}}}=-0.155$

$p_v =2*P(Z$

And we can use excel to find the p value like this: "=2*NORM.DIST(-0.155;0;1;TRUE)"

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is not significantly different from 0.1 .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=298 represent the random sample taken

X=29 represent the events claimed

$\hat p=\frac{29}{298}=0.0973$ estimated proportion

$p_o=0.1$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion is 0.1 or no.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.1$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.1$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, 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 $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.0973 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{298}}}=-0.155$

4) 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 bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(Z$

And we can use excel to find the p value like this: "=2*NORM.DIST(-0.155;0;1;TRUE)"

We can do the test also in R with the following code:

> prop.test(29,298,p=0.1,alternative = c("two.sided"),conf.level = 1-0.05,correct = FALSE)
