A yearbook company was investigating whether there is a significant difference between two states in the percents of high school

students who order yearbooks. From a random sample of 150 students selected from one state, 70 had ordered a yearbook. From a random sample of 100 students selected from the other state, 65 had ordered a yearbook. Which of the following is the most appropriate method for analyzing the results?
A. A one-sample zz-test for a sample proportion
B. A one-sample zz-test for a population proportion
C. A two-sample zz-test for a difference in sample proportions
D. A two-sample zz-test for a difference in population proportions
E. A two-sample zz-test for a population proportion

Answer:

Null hypothesis: p_1 = p_2

Alternative hypothesis: p_1 \neq p_2

So we need to conduct a:

D. A two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Because the idea is to check if the population proportions in the states are similar or not.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case they are trying two proof if there is a significant difference between two states in the percents of high school students who order yearbooks, and we chan check this with the difference of proportions.

Lets say that p_1,p_2 are the two proportions of interest and we want to check the following hypothesis:

We have the following info given:

\hat p_1 = \frac{70}{150}= 0.47 proportion of students that had ordered a yearbook from one state

\hat p_2= \frac{65}{100}= 0.65 proportion of students that had ordered a yearbook from another state

n_1 = 150 sample size from one state

n_2=100 sample size from another state

Null hypothesis: p_1 = p_2

Alternative hypothesis: p_1 \neq p_2

So we need to conduct a:

D. A two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Because the idea is to check if the population proportions in the states are similar or not.

padilas [110]

Answer:

The complete table is:

[ 5a ]           +    [ a + 3 ]      +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                         +                    +                    +

[ 2b ]          +     [ 4 + a ]      +     [ -a  ]     =    [  2b + 4 ]

  +                       +                     +                    +

[ 2a ]          +    [ a + 1 ]       +   [  -3a  ]    =   [     1      ]

  =                      =                     =                     =

[ 7a + 2b ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]    +     [   0   ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

Explanation:

You can determine the content of each box by subtraction, running the rows and the columns.

The expressions are:

[ 5a ]  +    [          ]   +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                +                +                    +

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]   +     [      ]     =    [              ]

  +              +                   +                    +

[      ]   +   [         ]   +      [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

  =               =                   =                   =

[      ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]  +  [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u>1. First row:</u>

[ 5a ]  +    [          ]   +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

[      ] = [10a+ 3]  - [ 4a ] - [ 5a ] = 10a - 4a - 5a + 3 = a + 3

<u>2. Second colum:</u>

[ a + 3 ] + [ 4 + a ] + [       ] =  [ 3a + 8 ]

[        ] = [ 3a + 8 ] - [ a + 3 ] - [ 4 + a ] = 3a - a  + a  + 8 - 4 - 3 = a + 1

So far, you have completed this:

[ 5a ]  +    [ a + 3 ]   +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                +                +                    +

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]   +     [      ]     =    [              ]

  +              +                   +                    +

[      ]   +   [ a + 1 ]   +     [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

  =               =                   =                   =

[      ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]  +  [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u></u>

<u>3. Complete the row 3:</u>

<u></u>

     [      ]   +   [ a + 1 ]   +      [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

    [      ]   =    [     1      ]   -   [ a + 1 ]   -    [  -3a  ]  = - a + 3a + 1 - 1 = 2a

So far, you have completed this:

[ 5a ]  +    [ a + 3 ]   +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                +                +                    +

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]   +     [      ]     =    [              ]

  +              +                   +                    +

[   2a   ]   +   [ a + 1 ]   +     [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

  =               =                   =                   =

[      ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]  +  [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u></u>

<u>4. Complete the fourth column:</u>

[ 10a + 3 ] + [    ] + [   1   ] = [10a + 2b + 8 ]

[    ] = 10a + 2b + 8 - 10a - 3 - 1 = 2b + 4

So far, this is the results:

[ 5a ]  +    [ a + 3 ]   +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                +                +                    +

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]   +     [      ]     =    [  2b + 4 ]

  +              +                   +                    +

[   2a   ]   +   [ a + 1 ]   +     [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

  =               =                   =                   =

[      ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]  +  [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u>5. Complete the second row:</u>

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]   +     [      ]     =    [  2b + 4 ]

 [      ]   =   [  2b + 4 ] - [ 2b ]  -   [ 4 + a ]  = 2b - 2b + 4 - 4 - a = - a

So far:

[ 5a ]  +    [ a + 3 ]      +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                +                    +                    +

[ 2b ]  +   [ 4 + a ]      +     [ -a  ]     =    [  2b + 4 ]

  +               +                     +                    +

[   2a   ]   +   [ a + 1 ]   +   [  -3a  ]  =   [     1      ]

  =               =                    =                   =

[      ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]  +     [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u>6. Complete the first colum:</u>

[ 5a ] + [ 2b ] + [2a ] = [   ]

[   ] = [ 7a + 2b ]

So far:

[ 5a ]           +    [ a + 3 ]      +    [ 4a ]     =    [ 10a + 3 ]

  +                         +                    +                    +

[ 2b ]           +   [ 4 + a ]      +     [ -a  ]     =    [  2b + 4 ]

  +                       +                     +                    +

[ 2a ]          +   [ a + 1 ]       +   [  -3a  ]    =   [     1      ]

[ 7a + 2b ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]   +     [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

<u>7. Complete the last row:</u>

[ 7a + 2b ]  +   [ 3a + 8 ]   +     [         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ]

[         ]    =   [10a + 2b + 8 ] - [ 7a + 2b ] - [ 3a + 8 ] = 0

The complete table is:

You and another person are sunbathing on the beach near a lifeguard station. The other person chooses a spot that is the same di
Schach [20]

Answer: 26.8 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

In the figure attached you can see two right triangles  triangle ABD and a triangle ACD.

You are located at point B and the other person at point C.

The approximate height of the lifeguard station is <em>x</em>.

Keep on mind that:

tan\alpha=\frac{opposite}{adjacent}

Therefore:

<em>For the triangle ABD</em>:

tan(36\°)=\frac{x}{DC+11}    [EQUATION 1]

<em>For the triangle ACD:</em>

tan(46\°)=\frac{x}{DC}    [EQUATION 2]

Solve from DC from [EQUATION 2]:

DC=\frac{x}{tan(46\°)}

Substitute into [EQUATION 1] and solve for x:

tan(36\°)=\frac{x}{(\frac{x}{tan(46\°)}+11)}\\tan(36\°)(\frac{x}{tan(46\°)}+11)=x\\11*tan(36\°)=x-\frac{xtan(36\°)}{tan(46\°)}\\7.991=0.298x

x=26.81ft≈26.8ft

Identify the parameters in y = a*bkx.
Natasha2012 [34]
Convention in algebra is that we use letters such as a, b, c, etc., for parameters and letters such as x, y z, and so on, for variables.

Thus the parameters here are a, b and k.  k is the constant of proportionality.
