Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let j represents water in one glass jag while p' represents the water in one plastic container,

According to the question,

j-p' = 6p+8 --------(1)

And, 2j+2p'=56p --------(2)

2 × equation (1)

2 j - 2 p' = 12p + 16 ---------(3)

Equation (2) + equation (3)

We get, 4 j = 12 p + 72

⇒ j = 3 p + 18

Putting this value in equation (1),

We get, 3p+18-p'=6p+8

p' = -3p + 10 = 10 - 3p

Thus, water in a plastic container, p'= 10 - 3 p

b) If p=3

Water in a glass container = 3 × 3 + 18 = 27 quarts

Water in a plastic container = 10 - 3 × 3 = 1 quarts

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

Larger sample size gives less std error and hence test statistic is larger.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a newspaper  is conducting a statewide survey concerning the race for governor. The newspaper will take a simple random sample of n registered voters and determine X = the number of voters that will vote for the Democratic candidate. Is there evidence that a clear majority of the population will vote for the Democratic candidate

Group        I   II

Success    640 64

Total   1200 120

p 0.533333333 0.533333333

q 0.466666667 0.466666667

se 0.014401646 0.045542003

p diff 0.033333333 0.033333333

Z 2.314550249 0.731925055

p      0.01           0.233

we find that though p is the same, std error is very small for larger sample size thus making z statistic much bigger.  So we get p value less than 0.05 whereas for 120 sample size, std error is large so Z statistic is small thus making p value to accept null hypothesis

What's the difference between 6z and z6
Airida [17]
Simple..

there is a major difference between 6z and z^{6}

6z means: 6 times z

and

z^{6} means: z to the power of 6(z*z*z*z*z*z)

An example...

make z=2...plug n chug..

6z----> 6(2)=12
and
z^{6}--->2^{6}=64

As you can see..there is a major difference.

Thus, your answer.
