Answer:

C.

2.67 inches by 2.27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

1 in        x inches

-------- = ---------

7.5 ft       20 ft

Using cross products

1*20 = 7.5x

Divide each side by 7.5

20/7.5 =7.5x/7.5

2.67 =x

We can do the same for the other dimension

1 in        x inches

-------- = ---------

7.5 ft       17 ft

Using cross products

1*17 = 7.5x

Divide each side by 7.5

17/7.5 =7.5x/7.5

2.27 =x

2.67 inches by 2.27 inches

A survey shows that 10% of the population is victimized by property crime each year. A random sample of 527 older citizens (65 y
jekas [21]

Answer:

The data provide sufficient evidence that older people are more likely to be victimized.

Step-by-step explanation:

H 0 : P = 0.10

H 1 : P > 0.10 (Right tailed test)

n = 527, P = 0.1235

The test statistics

x = P - p / \sqrt{p*(1-p) / n}

x = 0.1235 - 0.10 / \sqrt{0.10 * 0.90 / 527}

x = 0.0235 / \sqrt{0.09 / 527}

x = 0.0235 / \sqrt{0.00017077798}

x = 0.0235 / 0.0130682049264618

x = 1.798257689731729

x = 1.798

P value = [1 - p(Z > 1.7980] (Right tailed test)

P value = 0.036089

The P - Value is very small, so <u>reject H0</u>

Conclusion: The data provide sufficient evidence that older people are more likely to be victimized.
