A supplier of 3.5" disks claims that no more than 1% of the disks are defective. In a randomsample of 600 disks, it is found tha

t 3% are defective, but the supplier claims that this isonly a sample fluctuation. At the 0.01 level of significance, do the data provide sufficientevidence that the percentage of defects exceeds 1%

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%.

I don’t understand this question. Can anyone help? I need answers ASAP. Thanks for all the help

There's some unknown (but derivable) system of equations being modeled by the two lines in the given graph. (But we don't care what equations make up these lines.)

There's no solution to this particular system because the two lines are parallel.

How do we know they're parallel? Parallel lines have the same slope, and we can easily calculate the slope of these lines.

The line on the left passes through the points (-1, 0) and (0, -2), so it has slope

(-2 - 0)/(0 - (-1)) = -2/1 = -2

The line on the right passes through (0, 2) and (1, 0), so its slope is

(0 - 2)/(1 - 0) = -2/1 = -2

The slopes are equal, so the lines are parallel.

Why does this mean there is no solution? Graphically, a solution to the system is represented by an intersection of the lines. Parallel lines never intersect, so there is no solution.
