Is the product of two imaginary numbers always imaginary?

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

No. i*i = -1

2i*3i=-6

now if they meant complex numbers the answer is still no

(2+4i)(2-4i) = 4-8i+8i-16 = -12

Suppose that we are testing a coin to see if it is fair, so our hypotheses are: H0: p = 0.5 vs Ha: p ≠ 0.5. In each of (a) and (

aleksley [76]

Answer:

$H_0: p = 0.5\\H_a: p \neq 0.5$

a. We get 56 heads out of 100 tosses.

We will use one sample proportion test

x = 56

n = 100

$\widehat{p}=\frac{x}{n}$

$\widehat{p}=\frac{56}{100}$

$\widehat{p}=0.56$

Formula of test statistic = $\frac{\widehat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

= $\frac{0.56-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{100}}}$

= $1.2$

refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.8849

a. We get 560 heads out of 1000 tosses.

We will use one sample proportion test

x = 560

n = 1000

$\widehat{p}=\frac{x}{n}$

$\widehat{p}=\frac{560}{1000}$

$\widehat{p}=0.56$

Formula of test statistic = $\frac{\widehat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}$

= $\frac{0.56-0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{1000}}}$

= $3.794$

refer the z table for p value

p value = .000148

p value of part B is less than Part A because part B have 10 times the number the tosses.
