Let x be the height of the tree.

1.3 x
------- = ------
1.8 7

1.8x = (1.3) (7)

1.8x /1.8 = 9.1 / 1.8 (divide both sides of equation by 1.8)

x = 5.1 meters

ANSWER: The tree is 5.1 meters tall.

The probability that a student uses Smarthinking Online Tutoring on a regular basis is 0.31 . In a group of 21 students, what is

Ivenika [448]

Answer: 0.0241

Step-by-step explanation:

This is solved using the probability distribution formula for random variables where the combination formula for selection is used to determine the probability of these random variables occurring. This formula is denoted by:

P(X=r) = nCr × p^r × q^n-r

Where:

n = number of sampled variable which in this case = 21

r = variable outcome being determined which in this case = 5

p = probability of success of the variable which in this case = 0.31

q= 1- p = 1 - 0.31 = 0.69

P(X=5) = 21C5 × 0.31^5 × 0.69^16

P(X=5) = 0.0241

Answer:

Null hypothesis:H₀:- There is no significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁:

There is significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

B)

The calculated value Z = 2.7261 > 2.054 at 0.02 level of significance

Rejected H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

P - value = 0.0066

P - value = 0.0066 < 0.02

D)

1) Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given first sample size n₁ = 174

Suppose that, of 174 cases tested in a certain state, 11 were found to be drug-resistant.

First sample proportion

$p_{1} = \frac{x_{1} }{n_{1} } = \frac{11}{174} = 0.0632$

Given second sample size n₂ = 375

Given data Suppose also that, of 375 cases tested in another state, 7 were found to be drug-resistant

Second sample proportion

$p_{2} = \frac{x_{2} }{n_{2} } = \frac{7}{375} = 0.0186$

Step(ii):-

Null hypothesis:H₀:- There is no significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁:

There is significant difference between in drug resistance between the two states

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{p_{1}-p_{2} }{\sqrt{PQ(\frac{1}{n_{1} }+\frac{1}{n_{2} } ) } }$

Where

$P = \frac{n_{1}p_{1} +n_{2} p_{2} }{n_{1} +n_{2} }$

$P = \frac{174 (0.0632) + 375 (0.0186) }{174+375 } = \frac{17.9718}{549} = 0.0327$

Q = 1 - P = 1 - 0.0327 = 0.9673

Step(iii):-

Test statistic

$Z = \frac{p_{1}-p_{2} }{\sqrt{PQ(\frac{1}{n_{1} }+\frac{1}{n_{2} } ) } }$

$Z = \frac{0.0632-0.0186 }{\sqrt{0.0327 X 0.9673(\frac{1}{174 }+\frac{1}{375 } ) } }$

Z = 2.7261

Level of significance = 0.02 or 0.98

The z-value = 2.054

The calculated value Z = 2.7261 > 2.054 at 0.02 level of significance

Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

P- value

P( Z > 2.7261) = 1 - P( Z < 2.726)

= 1 - ( 0.5 + A (2.72))

= 0.5 - 0.4967

= 0.0033

we will use two tailed test

2 P( Z > 2.7261) = 2 × 0.0033

= 0.0066

P - value = 0.0066 < 0.02

Reject H₀

There is a significant difference in drug resistance between the two states.

Answer:

Leaving it in Radical form

Step-by-step explanation:

You cannot write out the entire real decimal without having to round because it is a never ending decimal like pi. If you are looking to type it into a calculator then radical form is best. However, if you are looking to add it to a decimal then converting to a decimal to show your work would be better than showing a radical.
