Does second-hand smoke increase the risk of a low birthweight? A baby is considered have low birthweight if he/she weighs less t

han 5.5 pounds at birth. According to the National Center of Health Statistics, about 7.8% of all babies born in the U.S. are categorized as low birthweight.
Suspecting that the national percentage is higher than 7.8%, researchers randomly select 1200 babies whose mothers had extensive exposure to second-hand smoke during pregnancy and find that 10.4% of the sampled babies are categorized as low birth weight.
Let p be the proportion of all babies in the U.S. that are categorized as "low birth weight." Give the null and alternative hypotheses for this research question.
1. H 0 : p = 0.078
H a : p ≠0.078
2. H 0 : p = 0.078
H a : p > 0.078
3. H 0 : p = 0.104
H a : p ≠0.104
4. H 0 : μ = .078
H a : μ > .078

Answer:

Option 2) Null hypothesis: p = 0.078 , Alternate hypothesis: p > 0.078

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

According to the National Center of Health Statistics, about 7.8% of all babies born in the U.S. are categorized as low birth weight.

Sample size, n = 1200

p = 7.8% = 0.078

We have to carry a hypothesis test whether national percentage is higher than 7.8% or not.

Thus, we can design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: p = 0.078\H_A: p > 0.078

Thus, the correct answer is:

Option 2) Null hypothesis: p = 0.078 , Alternate hypothesis: p > 0.078

PLEASE HELP ASAAP 25 PTS + BRAINLIEST TO RIGHT/BEST ANSWER
Nutka1998 [239]

Let i = sqrt(-1) which is the conventional notation to set up an imaginary number

The idea is to break up the radicand, aka stuff under the square root, to simplify

sqrt(-8) = sqrt(-1*4*2)

sqrt(-8) = sqrt(-1)*sqrt(4)*sqrt(2)

sqrt(-8) = i*2*sqrt(2)

sqrt(-8) = 2i*sqrt(2)

<h3>Answer is choice A</h3>

5x + 10y = 18
SOVA2 [1]
5x + 10y = 18

x = y -6, we substitute this into first equation.

5x + 10y = 18

5*(y - 6) + 10y = 18

5y - 30 + 10y = 18

So it the last option from the top.
