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

Nathan is a recreational cyclist. He can travel 10 miles in one hour on his bicycle. Which graph represents the number of miles
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

See attachment for graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1\ hr = 10\ miles

Required

The graph that shows the number of miles in x hours

We have:

1\ hr = 10\ miles

Multiply both sides by x

x * 1hr = 10miles * x

xhr=10x\ miles

So, the function is:

f(x) =10x

A survey of 100 high school students provided this
HACTEHA [7]

Answer:

35/100

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to find how many juniors there are, so if you add 13, 20, and 2 you get 35. For the denominator you have to find the total number of students, so just add all of the numbers together to get 100. So there is a 35/100 chance that a randomly selected student is a junior.
