A survey of 80 homes in a Washington D.C. suburb showed that 45 were air conditioned. A sample of 120 homes in a Pittsburgh subu

rb showed tht 63 had air conditioning. At α = 0.05, is there a difference in the two proportions? Please show all 4 steps of the classical approach clearly.

Answer:

There is no significant difference between the two proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

State the hypotheses:

Null hypothesis -> H0: P1 = P2

Alternative hypothesis -> H1: P1 not = P2

Note that hypotheses constitute a two-tailed test. the null hypothesis will be rejected if the proportion from population 1 is too big or if it is too small.

Formulate an analysis plan

For the analysis, the significance level is 0.05. The test method is a two-proportion z-test.

Analyze sample data.

Using sample data we calculate the pooled sample porportion (p) and the standard error (SE). Using those measures, we compute the  z-score test statistic (z).

p = (p1*n1 + p2*n2)/(n1 + n2)

p1 = 45/80 = 0.5625

p2 = 63/120 = 0.525

n1 = 80

n2 = 120

p = (0.5625*80 + 0.525*120)/(80 + 120)

p = 0.54

SE = \sqrt{p*(1-p)*(\frac{1}{n_{1} } +\frac{1}{n_{2}} )}

SE = \sqrt{(0.2428)*(0.0125 + 0.0083)}

SE = 0.07112

z = (p1 - p2)/ SE

z = (0.5625 - 0.525)/0.07112

z = 0.527

For z = 0.527 we have p-value 0.198

Interpret results. Since p - Value (0.198) of the test is greater than the alpha-0.05 (For two tailed test α-0.025). Therefore we cannot reject the null hypothesis.

There is no significant difference between the two proportions

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had $90 in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80
Ainat [17]
We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30

Let a, b, c and x elements in the group G. In each of the following solve for x in terms of a, b, and c.
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

x=c.a^{-1}.b^{-1}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation,

axb = c-----(1)

(axb) ( a^{-1}.b^{-1} ) = c.(a^{-1}b{-1})

(xb)(a)(a^{-1}.b^{-1} ) = c.(a^{-1}b{-1}) ( commutative law of multiplication )

(xb)(a.a^{-1}).b^{-1} = c.a^{-1}b{-1} ( Associative property )

(xb).e.b^{-1} = c.a^{-1}b{-1}

(xb).b^{-1}=c.a^{-1}.b^{-1}   ( identity property )

x.(b.b^{-1})=c.a^{-1}.b^{-1}  ( Associative property )

x.e=c.a^{-1}.b^{-1}      

x=c.a^{-1}.b^{-1}                 ( identity property )
