Answer:

At a significance level of 0.01, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the percentage of defective disks exceeds 1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the percentage of defective disks exceeds 1%.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi=0.01\\\\H_a:\pi>0.01

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=600.

The sample proportion is p=0.03.

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.01*0.99}{600}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.000017}=0.004

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.03-0.01-0.5/600}{0.004}=\dfrac{0.019}{0.004}=4.719

This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

P-value=P(z>4.719)=0.000001

As the P-value (0.000001) is smaller than the significance level (0.01), the effect is  significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the percentage of defective disks exceeds 1%.

40% of the students passed both exams. 80% of the students passed the second exam. how many students (in percent) who passed the
navik [9.2K]

50%. students (in percent) who passed the second exam also passed the first exam.

Let's imagine that there are 100 kids in the teacher's class. We know that 40 of them passed BOTH tests, and 80 passed the second test.

Because if they weren't, they wouldn't have passed the first test and consequently wouldn't have passed both, we can be sure that the group of students who passed BOTH tests is only made up of the 80 who passed the second test.

Thus, both tests were passed by 40 of the 80 pupils who passed the second one:                                      

40/80 = 1/2 = 50%.

Four interior angles of a pentagon measure 156 degrees 72 degrees 98 degrees and 87 degrees. What is the measure of the final in
zepelin [54]

Answer:

127°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the interior angles of a polygon is

sum = 180°(n - 2) ← n is the number of sides

here n = 5 ( Pentagon), hence

sum = 180° × 3 = 540°

To find the fifth angle subtract the sum of the 4 given angles from 540

angle = 540° - (156 + 72 + 98 + 87) = 540° - 413° = 127°
