If we were to foil
after experieence

we know
ax²+bx+c=0

and
in form
(ax+b)(cx+d)=0
if we expand it, we get
acx²+bcx+adx+bd=0
or
(ac)x²+(bc+ad)x+(bd)=0
compare to
ax²+bx+c=0
we notice that the middle terms (x terms) are

b=(bc+ad)
so

in form
(2x-1)(1x+5)
b=bc+ad=(-1*1+2*5)=-1+10=9

b=9
or you could just expand it

According to a Washington Post-ABC News poll, 331 of 502 randomly selected U.S. adults interviewed said they would not be bother
k0ka [10]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.659 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{502}}}=7.124  

p_v =P(z>7.124)=5.24x10^{-13}  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is significantly higher than 0.5.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=502 represent the random sample taken

X=331 represent the adults that said they would not be bothered if the NAtional security agency

\hat p=\frac{331}{502}=0.659 estimated proportion of people who would not be bothered if the NAtional security agency

p_o=0.5 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

Confidence=99% or 0.99

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is higher than the majority of 0.5:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.5  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.5  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.659 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{502}}}=7.124  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level provided \alpha=0.01. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>7.124)=5.24x10^{-13}  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is significantly higher than 0.5.
