Pete is a politician. He claims that 32% of the households in his district have total household incomes below the poverty level.

His opponent, Opal, wants to test this claim. Opal uses p to represent the proportion of households in the district with incomes below the poverty level. She formulates the null hypothesis, H0:p = 0.32, and an alternative, H1:p ≠ 0.32, to reflect her suspicion that Pete is wrong. Opal obtains a simple random sample of 225 households and finds that 87 of them have incomes below the poverty level. Her summary statistics are displayed. Sample size Sample count Sample proportion Standard error One-sample z-statistic n x p SE z 225 87 0.3867 0.0313 1.8077Use software to determine the p-value of the one-sample z-statistic.

Answer:

z=\frac{0.3867 -0.32}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{225}}}=2.145  

For a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z>2.145)=0.0320  

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=225 represent the sample selected

X=87 represent the households with incomes below the poverty level

\hat p=\frac{87}{225}=0.3867 estimated proportion of households with incomes below the poverty level

p_o=0.32 is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to check if the true proportion is equal to 0.32 or not.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.32  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.32  

The statistic is given bY:

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

Replacing we got:

z=\frac{0.3867 -0.32}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{225}}}=2.145  

For a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z>2.145)=0.0320

Answer:

m=-25

Step-by-step explanation:

m=Δh/Δt

(Im choosing for the difference in height and time (Δh and Δt) to be the difference between the data in the first two rows)

m=(4500-5000)/(20-0)

m=-500/20

m=-25

C). The local bus service has 2 lines of buses that start together at 8
jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer:

3 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly we calculate the number of minutes between 8 and 11 am

The number of hours is 3 hours

The number of minutes is 180 minutes since 1 hour is 60 minutes

Now out of 180, to know the number of times that they both leave, we need to get the multiples of both between 0 and 180

The multiples are;

60, 120, 180

This means that they leave together 3 times
