In a random sample of 500 handwritten zip code digits, 464 were read correctly by an optical character recognition (OCR) system

operated by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). USPS would like to know whether the rate is at least 90% correct.
Required:
Do the data provide evidence that the rate is at least 90% at a 0.05?

Answer:

z= 2.38

P = 0.008656

Step-by-step explanation:

Here n= 500 and p~= 464/500= 0.928 and q`= 1- 0.928 = 0.072

We formulate our null and alternate hypothesis as

H0 =  0.9 ;       H0 > 0.9

The degree of confidence = 90%

z₀.₀₅ = 1.645 for  α= 0.05

We use the test statistic

z=  x- np/√npq

z= 466-500 *0.9/ √500 * 0.9(1-0.9)

z= 466- 450/ √45

z= 16/6.7082

z= 2.38

As the calculated value of z= 2.38  is greater than α =1.645 so we reject H0.

If H0 is true the P value is calculated as

P = 1- Ф( 2.38)

P = 1-0.991344=0.008656

Answer:

Step-by-step segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from the endpoints of the segment it intersects. if segment dc bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because congruent parts of congruent triangles are congruent. if segment ad bisects segment ab, then point d is equidistant from points a and b because a point on a perpendicular bisector is equidistant from:

Consider the sequence defined recursively by do = 0, an = an-1 + 3n – 1. a) Write out the first 5 terms of this sequence,
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

The first 5 terms of the sequence is 2,7,15,26,40.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Consider the sequence defined recursively by a_0=0 a_n=a_{n-1}+3n-1

To find : Write out the first 5 terms of this sequence ?

Solution :

a_n=a_{n-1}+3n-1 and a_0=0

The first five terms in the sequence is at n=1,2,3,4,5

For n=1,

a_1=a_{1-1}+3(1)-1

a_1=a_{0}+3-1

a_1=0+2

a_1=2

For n=2,

a_2=a_{2-1}+3(2)-1

a_2=a_{1}+6-1

a_2=2+5

a_2=7

For n=3,

a_3=a_{3-1}+3(3)-1

a_3=a_{2}+9-1

a_3=7+8

a_3=15

For n=4,

a_4=a_{4-1}+3(4)-1

a_4=a_{3}+12-1

a_4=15+11

a_4=26

For n=5,

a_5=a_{5-1}+3(5)-1

a_5=a_{4}+15-1

a_5=26+14

a_5=40

The first 5 terms of the sequence is 2,7,15,26,40.

Naoya read a book cover to cover in a single session, at a rate of 55 pages per hour. After reading for 4 hours, he had 330 page
alina1380 [7]

She reads at 55 pages per hour for 4 hours so 55*4 = 220 pages so far. This means that she read 220 and had 330 left so 220 + 330 = 550 so the book is 550 pages. If she reads 55 pages per hour and there is a total of 550 pages, 550/55 = 10 hours to read the book.
