Hi there! The answer is 80 green apples.

In a bag of apples, the ratio of red apples to green apples is 3:4, so we must first realise that there is a total of 7 parts.

3 of these parts constist if red apples. In other terms 3 / 7 equals 60. Now divide by 3 to find 1 / 7. Hence, 1 / 7 equals 60 / 3 = 20 apples.

4 of the total 7 parts consist of green apples, so we must multiply the preceding outcome by 4 to find our answer. 4 / 7 equals 20 × 4 = 80 apples.

Therefore, there are 80 green apples in the bag.

The U.S. and many other countries have recently tightened airport security. A sociologist is interested in estimating the propor
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

0.0073 < 0.05, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conduct a test to determine whether the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

This means that the null hypothesis is: H_{0}: p = 0.7

And the alternate hypothesis is: H_{a}: p > 0.7

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.7, \sigma = \sqrt{0.7*0.3}

The sociologist found that 375 of the 500 travelers randomly selected and interviewed indicated that the airports were safe.

This means that n = 500, X = \frac{375}{500} = 0.75

Value of the z-statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.75 - 0.7}{\frac{\sqrt{0.7*0.3}}{\sqrt{350}}}

z = 2.44

P-value of the test:

Probability of z being larger than 2.44, that is, a proportion larger than 0.75.

This is, looking at the z-table, 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 2.44. S

Z = 2.44 has a pvalue of 0.9927

1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073

0.0073 < 0.05, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

Combine the like terms to create an equivalent expression<br> -k - ( - 8k)
Svetllana [295]

____________________________________________________

Answer:

7k

____________________________________________________

Step-by-step explanation:

We are trying to combine like terms with the expression: -k - ( - 8k)

We are pretty much solving it.

Solve:

-k - ( - 8k)

The "- ( -" turns into a plus sign.

So it would look like:

-k - -8k or -k + 8k

Now, you would finish solving

-k + 8k = 7k
