Answer:

There were 76 childrens and 14 adults.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the group has a total of 90 children and adults, then the sum of the number of adults with the number of children must be equal to 90 as shown below:

children + adults = 90

Since the total cost for their tickets was 548 then the number of children multiplied by the price of their ticket summed by the number of adults multiplied by the price of their ticket must be equal to that. We have:

5*children + 12*adults = 548

With these two equations we have a system of equations shown below:

children + adults = 90

5*children + 12*adults = 548

In order to solve this we will multiply the first equation by -5, and sum both equations we have:

-5*children - 5*adults = -450

5*children + 12*adults = 548

7*adults = 98

adults = 98/7 = 14

children + 14 = 90

children = 90 - 14 = 76

There were 76 childrens and 14 adults.

A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items. Whenever the machine produces significantly greater than
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0007 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

A machine, when working properly, produces 5% or less defective items.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

H_0: p \leq 0.05

Test if the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.

This means that the alternate hypothesis is:

H_a: p > 0.05

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.05 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.05, \sigma = \sqrt{0.05*0.95}

A random sample of 300 items taken from the production line contained 27 defective items.

This means that n = 300, X = \frac{27}{300} = 0.09

Value of the test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.09 - 0.05}{\frac{\sqrt{0.05*0.95}}{\sqrt{300}}}

z = 3.18

Pvalue of the test:

Testing if the mean is greater than a value, which means that the pvalue of the test is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 3.18, which is the probability of a finding a sample proportion of 0.09 or higher.

Looking at the Z-table, Z = 3.18 has a pvalue of 0.9993

1 - 0.9993 = 0.0007

The pvalue of the test is 0.0007 < 0.01, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis that the percentage of defective items produced by this machine is greater than 5%.
