Solve the system by substitution.<br> y = 8x<br> y=10x – 4<br> Submit Answer<br> How

Goshia [24]

Answer:

(2,16)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=8x-----------(i)

y= 10x-4---------(ii)

Substituting the value of y=8x in equation (ii)

8x=10x-4

8x-10x=-4

-2x= -4

x=2

Now, substituting the value of x= 2 in equation (i)

y=8x=8(2)=16

Solution of the system is (2,16)

Based on the sample of 500 people, 42% owned cats. Calculate the test statistic. Round to two decimal places.

Tanzania [10]

Answer:

z= 3.63

z for significance level = 0.05 is ± 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Here p = 42% = 0.42

n= 500

We formulate our null and alternative hypotheses as

H0: p= 0.42 against Ha : p> 0.42 One tailed test

From this we can find q which is equal to 1-p= 1-0.42 = 0.58

Taking p`= 0.5

Now using the z test

z= p`- p/ √p(1-p)/n

Putting the values

z= 0.5- 0.42/ √0.42*0.58/500

z= 0.5- 0.42/ 0.0220

z= 3.63

For one tailed test the value of z for significance level = 0.05 is ± 1.645

Since the calculated value does not fall in the critical region we reject our null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis that more than 42% people owned cats.

The USDA conducted tests for salmonella in produce grown in California. In an independent sample of 252 cultures obtained from w

Marat540 [252]

Answer:

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first sample size is $n_1 = 252$

The number that tested positive is $k_1 = 18$

The second sample size is $n_2 = 476$

The number that tested positive is $k_2 = 20$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.01$

Generally the first sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p _1 = \frac{k_1 }{ n_1 }$

=> $\^ p _1 = \frac{18 }{ 252 }$

=> $\^ p _1 = 0.071$

Generally the second sample proportion is mathematically represented as

$\^ p _2 = \frac{k_2 }{ n_2 }$

=> $\^ p _2 = \frac{20 }{ 476}$

=> $\^ p _2 = 0.042$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p_1 - p_2 = 0$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p_1 - p_2 \ne 0$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented

$z = \frac{ \^ p_1 - \^ p_2 - ( p_ 1 - p_2 )}{ \sqrt{\frac{\^ p_1 (1-\^ p_1)}{ n_1 } + \frac{\^ p_2 (1-\^ p_2)}{ n_2 } } }$

=> $z = \frac{ 0.071 - 0.042 - 0 }{ \sqrt{\frac{0.071 (1-0.071)}{ 252 } + \frac{0.042 (1-\^ 0.042)}{ 476 } } }$

=> $z = 1.56$

From the z table the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to 1.56 is

$P(Z > 1.56 ) =0.05938$

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

$p-value = 2 * P(Z > 1.56 )$

=> $p-value = 2 * 0.05938$

=> $p-value = 0.1188$

From the value obtained we see that $p-value > \alpha$ hence

The decision rule is

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife
