Answer: The proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has statistically significantly decreased.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

p = 48% = 0.48

n = 115

x = 46

So, \hat{p}=\dfrac{46}{115}=0.40

So, hypothesis would be

H_0:\ p=\hat{p}\\\\H_a:p

So, test value would be

z=\dfrac{p-\hat{p}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\z=\dfrac{0.48-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.48\times 0.52}{115}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.08}{0.0466}\\\\z=1.72

At 10% level of significance, critical value would be

z= 1.28

Since 1.28 < 1.72

So, we will reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, the proportion of new car buyers that trade in their old car has statistically significantly decreased.

Parallelogram ABCD is a rectangle.
svp [43]
Y = 3 because in a rectangle, the diagonals are ALWAYS congruent. so you would have:
5y - 2 = 4y + 1
-4y+2   -4y + 2
y        =        3

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

  33 1/3 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distance between them goes from 8 ft to 12 ft, it is 1.5 times what it was. Then the force will be multiplied by the inverse of the square of this:

  (75 lb)×1/(1.5²) = 75/2.25 lb = 33 1/3 lb

At 12 feet apart, the attraction force is 33 1/3 pounds.
