(2 points) An article in the Washington Post on March 16, 1993 stated that nearly 45 percent of all Americans have brown eyes. A

random sample of n=76n=76 Americans found 28 with brown eyes. We test H0:p=.45 Ha:p≠.45
(a) What is the z-statistic for this test?

(b) What is the P-value of the test?

Answer: a) z=1.43

b) 0.1528

Step-by-step explanation:

The given set of hypothesis :

H_0:p=0.45

H_a:p\neq0.45

Since the alternative hypothesis H_a is two-tailed , so we perform two-tailed test.

Also, it is given that : A random sample of n=76 Americans found 28 with brown eyes.

Sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{28}{76}=0.3684

a) The z-statistic would be :-

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

\Rightarrow\ z=\dfrac{0.3684-0.45}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.45(1-0.45)}{76}}}=-1.4299121397\approx-1.43

b) P-value for two-tailed test = 2P(Z>|z|)= 2P(z>|-1.43|)

=2P(z>1.43)

=2(1-P(z≤1.43)

=2-2P(z≤1.43)

= 2-2(0.9236)[Using standard z-table]

= 2-1.8472=0.1528

Hence,  the P-value of the test= 0.1528

Can someone help me match these
zavuch27 [327]

1. x^2 + y^2 - 4x + 12y - 20 = 0 ---- (x-2)^2 + (y+6)^2 = 60

3. 3x^2+ 3y^2 + 12x +18y - 15 = 0 --- (x+2)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 18

5. 2x^2 + 2y^2 - 24x - 16y - 8 = 0 --- (x-6)^2 + (y-4)^2 = 56

I don't know the other two, hope I helped though.

What is the difference of two positive rational number always positive?
Alexeev081 [22]
No, while the difference represents the absolute magnitude of two numbers . . . for example . . .

The difference between 5 and 2 is . . . 3
The difference between 6.4 and 9.5 is . . . 3.1

 . . . there is still the chance that the difference may be zero . . . in which case the difference is neither positive nor negative

. . . so in short . . . the answer is . . . <span>NO</span>
