(64/125) to the power of -2/3

1 answer:

7 0

As the exponent is negative, we can rewrite the expression as (125/64) raised to the power 2/3.

So, (125/64) raised to the power 2/3 can also be written as [(5/4) raised to the power 3] raised to the power 2/3. The exponents will multiply and the final exponent will be 2.

Hence the answer will be (5/4) squared.
Therefore the answer is (24/16).

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval would be given (0.561;0.719).

b) $p_v =P(z>2.8)=1-P(z$

c) Using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we have enough evidence at this significance level to reject the null hypothesis. And on this case makes sense the claim that the proportion is higher than 0.5 or 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=100 represent the random sample taken

X=64 represent were in favor of firing the coach

$\hat p=\frac{64}{100}=0.64$ estimated proportion for were in favor of firing the coach

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test since the problem says majority

$\alpha$ represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

p= population proportion of Americans for were in favor of firing the coach

Part a

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.9=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$0.64 - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{100}}=0.561$

$0.64 + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{100}}=0.719$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.561;0.719).

Part b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion exceeds 50%(Majority). :

Null Hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative Hypothesis: $p >0.5$

We assume that the proportion follows a normal distribution.

This is a one tail upper test for the proportion of union membership.

The One-Sample Proportion Test is "used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly (different,higher or less) from a hypothesized value $p_o$ ".

Check for the assumptions that he sample must satisfy in order to apply the test

a)The random sample needs to be representative: On this case the problem no mention about it but we can assume it.

b) The sample needs to be large enough

$np_o =100*0.64=64>10$

$n(1-p_o)=100*(1-0.64)=36>10$

Calculate the statistic

The statistic is calculated with the following formula:

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

On this case the value of $p_o=0.5$ is the value that we are testing and n = 100.

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{100}}}=2.8$

The p value for the test would be:

$p_v =P(z>2.8)=1-P(z$

Part c

Using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we have enough evidence at this significance level to reject the null hypothesis. And on this case makes sense the claim that the proportion is higher than 0.5 or 50%.
