In a recent poll, 778 adults were asked to identify their favorite seat when they fly, and 492 of them chose a window seat. Use

seropon [69]

Answer:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

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

$p_v =P(Z>7.36)=9.19x10^{-14}$

Since the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of adults prefer window seats when they fly is significantly higher than 0.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=778 represent the random sample taken

X=492 represent the people that chose a window seat.

$\hat p=\frac{492}{778}=0.632$ estimated proportion of people that chose a window seat.

$p_o=0.5$ 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)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the majority of adults prefer window seats when they fly:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, 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 $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{0.632 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{778}}}=7.36$

4) 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:

$p_v =P(Z>7.36)=9.19x10^{-14}$

5) Conclusion

Since the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of adults prefer window seats when they fly is significantly higher than 0.5 .

Does 2 1/3-1 3/4 need require renaming

ANEK [815]

Answer:

$\frac{7}{12}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2 \frac{1}{3} - 1 \frac{3}{4}$

The fractions above are known as mixed numbers (that is, fractions that contain the combination of a whole number and proper fraction). The mixed numbers can equally be renamed as improper fractions. However, renaming can only occur the the mixed numbers are being transformed as below:

$\frac{7}{3} - \frac{7}{4}$

The transformation occur through a simple approach thus: for the first mixed number; 2 1/3 = 2 multiplied by 3 plus 1 divide by 3 equals 7/3. Similarly, mixed number 1 3/4 is transformed by this: 1 multiplied by 4 plus 3 divide by 4 equals 7/4.

Simplifying further to arrive at final result implies,

$\frac{7}{3} - \frac{7}{4}$
