<h3>Given</h3>

(a) 8 + |x -2| = 8

(b) |x + 1| +5 = 2

(d) 3|x +10| = 0

<h3>Solution</h3>

(a) |x -2| = 0 . . . . . subtract 8

... x -2 = 0 . . . . . . . only one solution, because -0 = 0

... x = 2

(b) |x +1| = -3 . . . . subtract 5. No solution. (an absolute value cannot be negative)

(c) No solution. (see (b))

(d) |x +10| = 0 . . . . divide by 3

... x +10 = 0 . . . . . . one solution. (see (a))

... x = -10

Consider a drug testing company that provides a test for marijuana usage. Among 310 tested subjects, results from 28 subjects w

Naily [24]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.0903 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{310}}}=-0.569$

The p value for this case can be calculated with this probability:

$p_v =P(z$

Since the p value is higher than significance level we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion is significantly less than 0.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=310 represent th sample selected

X=28 represent the subjects wrong

$\hat p=\frac{28}{310}=0.0903$ estimated proportion of subjects wrong

$p_o=0.1$ is the value to verify

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to test the claim that less than 10 percent of the test results are wrong ,and the hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.1$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.1$

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info we got:

$z=\frac{0.0903 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{310}}}=-0.569$

The p value for this case can be calculated with this probability:

$p_v =P(z$

Since the p value is higher than significance level we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion is significantly less than 0.1
