In a recent Super Bowl, a TV network predicted that 50 % of the audience would express an interest in seeing one of its forthcom

ing television shows. The network ran commercials for these shows during the Super Bowl. The day after the Super Bowl, and Advertising Group sampled 106 people who saw the commercials and found that 48 of them said they would watch one of the television shows.Suppose you are have the following null and alternative hypotheses for a test you are running:H0:p=0.5Ha:p≠0.5Calculate the test statistic, rounded to 3 decimal placesz=

Answer:

z= -0.968

We can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows not differs from 0.5 or 50% .  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation n  

n=106 represent the random sample taken

X=48 represent the people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows.

\hat p=\frac{48}{106}=0.453 estimated proportion of people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows.

p_o=0.5 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that 50% of people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.5  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.5  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:  

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.453 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{106}}}=-0.968  

4) Statistical decision  

P value method or p value approach . "This method consists on determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level is not provided, but we can assume \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z  

So based on the p value obtained and using the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we have p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that  they would watch one of the television shows not differs from 0.5 or 50% .

Geometry PEOPLE HELP
White raven [17]

Answer: second option.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the transformation T:(x,y)→(x-5,y+3)

 You must substitute the x-coordinate of the point A (which is x=2) and the y-coordinate of the point A (which is y=-1) into (x-5,y+3) to find the x-coordinate and the y-coordinate of the image of the point A.

Therefore, you get that the image of A(2,-1) is the following:

(x-5,y+3)=(2-5,-1+3)=(-3,2)

You can observe that this matches with the second option.

If you are buying at item at a store for a price of $17, and there is a 8.7% tax added on top, what would be the total amount du
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

$18.48

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a percentage you just multiply the amount x the percentage in decimal form.

17 x 0.087 = 1.479 tax

Then you add that number too the original total.

17+1.479 = 18.479

Then you round to the nearest cent.

18.48

Total:

$18.48

Maurinko [17]

we have chicken broth in cylindrical can.

we have given the height radius of cylindrical can.

h=10cm r=10 cm .

and she have 6cm broth height in the tin that means she had used 4 cm of height of broth .

now we need to find volume of two cylinder with h=10 cm and 6cm

and we need to find the difference between the volumes .

volume1=\pi *r*h_{1} =\pi *(10)^2*10=3.14*1000=3140 cm^3

volume 2=\pi *(10)^2*6=1884cm^3

volume used =volume 1-volume2=3140-1884=1256cm^3 is used
