) The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration collects data on seat-belt use and publishes results in the document Occupa

nt Restraint Use. Of 1,000 drivers 16-24 years old, 79% said they buckle up, whereas 924 of 1,100 drivers 25-69 years old said they did. Does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in seat belt use? Go over all the steps in the process for comparing two sample percentages.

Answer:

We conclude that there is a difference in seat belt use.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that of 1,000 drivers 16-24 years old, 79% said they buckle up, whereas 924 of 1,100 drivers 25-69 years old said they did.

<u><em>Let </em></u>p_1<u><em> = population proportion of drivers 16-24 years old who buckle up .</em></u>

<u><em /></u>p_2<u><em> = population proportion of drivers 25-69 years old who buckle up .</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p_1-p_2 = 0      {means that there is no significant difference in seat belt use}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p_1-p_2\neq 0      {means that there is a difference in seat belt use}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>Two-sample z proportion statistics;</u>

                     T.S. =  \frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p_1 = sample proportion of drivers 16-24 years old who buckle up = 79%

\hat p_2 = sample proportion of drivers 25-69 years old who buckle up = \frac{924}{1100} = 84%

n_1 = sample of 16-24 years old drivers = 1000

n_2 = sample of 25-69 years old drivers = 1100

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{(0.79-0.84)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.79(1-0.79)}{1000}+\frac{0.84(1-0.84)}{1100} } }  

                              =  -2.946

The value of z test statistics is -2.946.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. <u><em>Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.</em></u><em> </em>

<em>Since our test statistics doesn't lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which </em><em><u>we reject our null hypothesis</u></em><em>.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that there is a difference in seat belt use.

The length of an arc is given by θ/360×2πr, where θ is angle subtended by the arc to the center and r is the radius of the circle.
 The length is 12 units, and θ/360 is 1/3
Therefore, 12 = 1/3 × 3.142 ×r
                    r = 12× 3/3.142
                    r = 11.457 units
                      ≈ 11 units

Please help, I miss one day and I dont know how to do this
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

X is 12 Y is 124

Step-by-step explanation:

left and right side have equal degrees of 56

so x would be 12 because you would multiply 4×12

since in total it will be 360 degrees

you add 56 and 56 together to get 112

then just subtract 112 from 360 and you get 248 then divide 248 by 2 and you have your bottom and top value of 124
