Answer:

<h2>x = -6</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

-2x+3=15\qquad\text{subtract 3 from both sides}\\\\-2x+3-3=15-3\\\\-2x=12\qquad\text{divide both sides by (-2)}\\\\\dfrac{-2x}{2}=\dfrac{12}{-2}\\\\x=-6

The answer is -6 because, u will transfer 3 to the other side where 15 is ,so the answer will be 12. Divide 12 by -2 it will be -6.

According to a polling​ organization, 24% of adults in a large region consider themselves to be liberal. A survey asked 200 resp
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.375 -0.24}{\sqrt{\frac{0.24(1-0.24)}{200}}}=4.47  

Now we can calculate the p value based on the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

p_v =P(z>4.47)=0.00000391  

The p value is very low compared to the significance level of \alpha=0.05 then we can reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion of people liberal is higher than 0.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=200 represent the random sample taken

X=75 represent the number of people Liberal

\hat p=\frac{75}{200}=0.375 estimated proportion of people liberal

p_o=0.24 is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to verify if the true proportion of adults liberal is higher than 0.24:

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.24  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.24  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{0.375 -0.24}{\sqrt{\frac{0.24(1-0.24)}{200}}}=4.47  

Now we can calculate the p value based on the alternative hypothesis with this probability:

p_v =P(z>4.47)=0.00000391  

The p value is very low compared to the significance level of \alpha=0.05 then we can reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion of people liberal is higher than 0.24
