Answer:

5.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of sampled workers= n= 1000

Percentage of residents favouring construction= p' = 60% = 60/100= 0.6.

Testing the claim that the percentage of people favouring the construction is more than 56%= p= 56/100 = 0.56.

To calculate the test statistics we use the formula below;

Test statistics= √n (p' - p)/ √[p×(1-p)] -----------(1).

Substituting the value into equation (1) above, we have;

Test statistics= √1000 (0.6-0.56) / √[0.56×(1-0.56)]

Test statistics= (31.62)(0.04) / √0.5(0.44) = 1.2648/ 0.2464

Test statistics= 5.13312

= 5.13 (to 2 decimal places)

Please help!!
Mumz [18]

Answer:

Α. 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given A = -8 and B = 10

The distance between A and B

= B - A

= 10 - (-8)

= 10 + 8

= 18 units

4/9 of the way between A and B

= 4/9 of the distance between A and B

= 4/9 x 18 units

= 8 units.

Hence the location of the point that is 4/9 of the way from A to B

= value at point A + 8 units

= -8 + 8

= 0 (answer)
