The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the construction of a new community. A political study took a sample of 800 voters i

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

A political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 30%, so then that represent our claim and needs to be on the alternative hypothesis.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.3$

Alternative hypothesis $p >0.3$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following info given from the problem:

$n= 800$ the random sample of voters selected from the town

$\hat p = 0.34$ represent the proportion of residents favored construction

$p_o = 0.30$ represent the value desired to test.

A political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor construction is more than 30%, so then that represent our claim and needs to be on the alternative hypothesis.

Based on this the correct system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.3$

Alternative hypothesis $p >0.3$

And in order to test this hypothesis we can use a one sample z test for a population proportion and the statistic would be given by:

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

And with the data given we have:

$z=\frac{0.34 -0.3}{\sqrt{\frac{0.3(1-0.3)}{800}}}=2.469$

The number of books borrowed from a library each week follows a normal distribution. When a sample is taken for several weeks, t

Marat540 [252]

$\mathbb P(X>250)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{X-190}{30}>\dfrac{250-190}{30}\right)=\mathbb P(Z>2)\approx0.0228$

Or, if you're familiar with the empirical rule and the basic properties of the normal distribution, you can use the fact that approximately $95/%$ of the distribution lies within two standard deviations of the mean, or

$\mathbb P(|Z|$

which means about $5\%$ of the distribution lies outside this interval, or

$\mathbb P((-22))\approx0.05$

Because the distribution is symmetric, you have

$\mathbb P(-22)$
$\implies \mathbb P((-22))=\mathbb P(-22)=2\mathbb P(Z>2)\approx0.05$
$\implies \mathbb P(Z>2)\approx 0.025$
