If you take out a $8,000 loan for a period of 6 months at an 8% interest rate, what will your outstanding balance be after two m

maksim [4K]

Answer:

Outstanding balance after two months payments = 7893.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Interest accrued every month = I = PRT/100

P = 8000

R = 8%

T = 6

I = (8000 x 8 x 6) ÷ 100 = 3840

Amount paid every month = (8000 + 3840) ÷ 6 = 1973.33

Hence amount paid after two months = 2 x 1973.33 = 3946.67

Outstanding balance after two months payments = 8000 +3840 - 3946.67 = 7893.33

Find the volume of the cylinder. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

GrogVix [38]

We know diameter $d=8$ and height $h=16$ .

First find the radius of the bottom of the cylinder,

$r=\dfrac{d}{2}=\dfrac{8}{2}=4$ .

Then find the area of the bottom of cylinder,

$A=\pi r^2=16\pi$ .

Then to find volume just multiply the height with the area of the bottom of the cylinder,

$V=Ah=16\cdot16\pi=16^2\pi\approx804.247\mathrm{cm^3}$ .

Hope this helps.

A manufacturer of a new medication on the market for Alzheimer's disease makes a claim that the medication is effective in 65% o

NeX [460]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.639 -0.65}{\sqrt{\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{180}}}=-0.309$

$p_v =P(z$

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of adults with the medication was effective is not significantly less than 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=180 represent the random sample taken

X=115 represent the adults with the medication was effective

$\hat p=\frac{115}{180}=0.639$ estimated proportion of adults with the medication was effective

$p_o=0.65$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that true proportion is less than 0.65.:

Null hypothesis: $p \geq 0.65$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.65$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.639 -0.65}{\sqrt{\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{180}}}=-0.309$

Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z$
