<h3>What is deductive reasoning?</h3>

Deductive reasoning can be defined as a type of logical reasoning that typically involves drawing conclusions based on a given set of rules and conditions or from one or more premises (factual statements) that are assumed to be generally (universally) true.

<h3>What is a proposition?</h3>

A proposition can be defined as a type of statement (assertion) that is typically used to express an opinion or a judgement, with either a true or false answer.

This ultimately implies that, a proposition refers to a type of statement (assertion) that is either a true or false.

In this context, we can infer and logically deduce that the following statements are considered to be propositions:

2 + 2 = 7

There are more men than women at BYU-Idaho.

2 + 2 = 4

Ron hates spiders.

Last year, 50% of MNM. Inc. employees were female. It is believed that there has been a reduction in the percentage of females i

Serhud [2]

Answer:

We conclude that there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 400

p = 50% = 0.5

Alpha, α = 0.05

Number of women, x = 118

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: p = 0.50\\H_A: p < 0.50$

This is a one-tailed test.

Formula:

$\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{118}{400} = 0.45$

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

Putting the values, we get,

$z = \displaystyle\frac{0.45-0.50}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{400}}} = -2$

Now, we calculate the critical value.

Now, $z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = -1.645$

Since the calculated z-statistic is less than the critical value, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Thus, there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.

The length of a rectangle is shown below:

KIM [24]

Answer: It would be C(-3 -1) D(1 -1). (Aka the second one)

Step-by-step explanation:

The top of A and B is 4 units. If you count down five units vertically you get to -3, -1 and 1, -1. You need to count down 5 units because its asking you to get 20. So 5 x 4 = 20.
