survey on televisions requiring repairs within four years was conducted. Nineteen out of 200 televisions from company A and 25 o

ut of 200 televisions from company B needed repairs. Do these data show that televisions from company A are more reliable than televisions from company B?

Answer:

z=\frac{0.095-0.125}{\sqrt{0.11(1-0.11)(\frac{1}{200}+\frac{1}{200})}}=-0.959    

p_v =P(Z    

Comparing the p value with the significance level assumed\alpha=0.05 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can't conclude that company A are more reliable than televisions from company B at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation    

X_{1}=19 represent the number of tvs who need a repair for A

X_{2}=25 represent the number of tvs who need a repair for B

n_{1}=200 sample 1 selected  

n_{2}=200 sample 2 selected  

p_{1}=\frac{19}{200}=0.095 represent the proportion estimated for the sample A  

p_{2}=\frac{25}{200}=0.125 represent the proportion estimated for the sample B

\hat p represent the pooled estimate of p

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)  

\alpha=0.05 significance level given  

Concepts and formulas to use    

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if company A are more reliable than televisions from company B (that means p1<p2) , the system of hypothesis would be:    

Null hypothesis:p_{1} \geq p_{2}    

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} < p_{2}    

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:    

z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}   (1)  

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{19+25}{200+200}=0.11  

z-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.    

Calculate the statistic  

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:    

z=\frac{0.095-0.125}{\sqrt{0.11(1-0.11)(\frac{1}{200}+\frac{1}{200})}}=-0.959    

Statistical decision  

Since is a left sided test the p value would be:    

p_v =P(Z    

Comparing the p value with the significance level assumed\alpha=0.05 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can't conclude that company A are more reliable than televisions from company B at 5% of significance.

Write the expanded form of the expression. <br> -1/2 (y - x) = ?
morpeh [17]

Answer:

The expanded form of the expression -\frac{1}{2}(y-x) is \mathbf{-\frac{1}{2}(y)+\frac{1}{2}(x)}

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write expanded form of the expression -\frac{1}{2}(y-x)

For expansion we will use distributive property of multiplication over addition

a(b+c)=ab+ac

Applying above rule:

-\frac{1}{2}(y-x)\\=-\frac{1}{2}(y)-(-\frac{1}{2}(x))\\=-\frac{1}{2}(y)+\frac{1}{2}(x)

So, the expanded form of the expression -\frac{1}{2}(y-x) is \mathbf{-\frac{1}{2}(y)+\frac{1}{2}(x)}

A vase contains 4 pink roses, 8 red roses, and 10 white roses. Two roses are randomly selected from the vase one at a time, with
alisha [4.7K]
There are 22 roses in the vase 
probability of first selecting a red rose = 8/22 = 4/11

P( second one is red) = 7/21 = 1/3

these probabilities are multiplied because the individual picks are independent
 so the answer is 4/11 * 1/4  = 4/33
