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:

  17,500

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be written as a proportion:

  hits/revenue = 1000/(£2) = x/(£35)

Multiplying by £35 gives ...

  x = 1000(35/2) = 35000/2 = 17,500

17500 hits are required for revenue of £35.

Select Independent or Not independent for each situation. Not independent Independent a. A jar contains fifteen coins. Two coins
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The correct answers are a. Independent; b. Independent; c. Independent;  e.  Not Independent

Step-by-step explanation:

a. A jar contains fifteen coins which. Two coins are picked randomly without replacement. Thus the second pick is not dependent on the first pick as the coins in the all same and thus the experiment is independent.

b. A number cube is rolled twice. Outcome of the first roll is independent of the outcome in the second and thus the experiment is independent.

c. A box contains number cards labeled from 1 to 10 where 2 cards are chosen randomly with replacement. Hence first draw does not effect the sample making the experiment independent.

e. There are 3 green balls and 7 red balls in a bag with 2 balls are chosen randomly without replacement. Thus one pick depends on what is drawn in the previous pick thus making it a dependent or not independent event.

What is the area of the composite figure? -70 cm2 -100 cm2 -105 cm2 -130 cm2
mr Goodwill [35]

Make two shapes out of it.

The bottom is a rectangle 14 x 5 = 70 square cm

The top is a triangle 1/2 x 12 x 5 = 30 square cm

Total area = 70 + 30 = 100 square cm
