Divide 31 by 50 and that will give you .62 move the decimal point two places to the right and that gives you 62%. :)
Answer: 0.84
Step-by-step explanation:
let p be the population proportion of adults who smoked a cigarette in the past week.
As per given , we have
![H_a: p](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=H_a%3A%20p%20%3C0.30)
Sample size : n= 1491
The sample proportion of adults smoked a cigarette= ![\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{462}{1491}=0.30985915493\approx0.31](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Chat%7Bp%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7Bx%7D%7Bn%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7B462%7D%7B1491%7D%3D0.30985915493%5Capprox0.31)
The test statistic for proportion is given by :-
![z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%3D%5Cdfrac%7B%5Chat%7Bp%7D-p%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Cdfrac%7Bp%281-p%29%7D%7Bn%7D%7D%7D)
Substitute all the values , we get
![z=\dfrac{0.31-0.30}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.30(1-0.30)}{1491}}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.01}{\sqrt{0.000141}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.01}{0.011874342087}=0.84261497731\approx0.84](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%3D%5Cdfrac%7B0.31-0.30%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B%5Cdfrac%7B0.30%281-0.30%29%7D%7B1491%7D%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B0.01%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B0.000141%7D%7D%5C%5C%5C%5C%3D%5Cdfrac%7B0.01%7D%7B0.011874342087%7D%3D0.84261497731%5Capprox0.84)
Hence, the value of the test statistic = 0.84
x<-5
Step-by-step explanation:
-3x<12+3
3x>15 divide both sides with ÷3
x<-5
