Explain why solving (2/5)c = (8/9) by multiplying both sides by (5/2) is the same as solving it by dividing both sides by (2/5)

It's known as keep change and flip. Keep the first fraction, change the division sign into a multiplication sign, and flip the decimal to its reciprocal (switch the numerator and denominator). This is used when dividing fractions. We can even check to see if they have to same output.
2/5 × 5/2 = 1
8/9 × 5/2 = 40/18
2/5 ÷ 2/5 = 1
8/9 ÷ 2/5 = 40/18
Tell me if this helps, I can explain more if needed.

Answer:

Decison region :

Reject H0 : if χ² > 6.251

12.229

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Manufacturer A B C D

Unacceptable 29 17 9 22

Acceptable 171 183 191 178

Total 200 200 200 200

H0: There is no relationship between quality and manufacturer.

H1: There is a relationship.

Testing using the goodness of fit :

Chisquare = (observed - Expected)² / Expected

Expected Values:

19.25 19.25 19.25 19.25

180.75 180.75 180.75 180.75

Chi-Squared Values:

4.93831 0.262987 5.45779 0.392857

0.525934 0.0280083 0.581259 0.0418396

χ² = 4.93831 + 0.262987 + 5.45779 + 0.392857

+ 0.525934 + 0.0280083 + 0.581259 + 0.0418396 = 12.229

Degree of freedom, df = (4-1)(2-1) = 3*1= 3

The critical value,

χ² at 0.10, 3 = 6.251

Decison region :

Reject H0 : if χ² > 6.251

Reject H0 : 12.229 > 6.251
