1st you have to know that in mathematiques the signs preceding any number are of paramount importance:
1) addition of 2 digits with different signs:
 a) 8 - 3 = 5
 b)-8 + 3 = -5 (if the negative sign is associated with largest digit, then the subtraction will be negative and vice versa
c) addition of 2 digits with both negative sign
- 5 - 8 = -13 .You jus add up both by keeping the negative sign

2) Multiplication: 2 digits with different signs:
a) (8) x (-3) = -24
b) (-8) x (3) = -24 so (-) x (+) or (+) x (-) is ALWAYS negative

3) Multiplication: 2 digits with SAME signs;
a) +8 x +3 = 24
b) (-8) x (-33) =24 so (-) x (-) or (+) x (+) is ALWAYS POSITIVE

4) what applies on multiplication applies also on division (same principle)

5) Now we come to parenthesis: When you have parenthesis, the sign preceding the parenthesis is also of paramount importance:

a) a positive sign preceding a parenthesis doesn't affect the consents if you remove these parenthesis: +(5 + 3y) = 5+3y or 2(5+3y) = 10+6y

b) a NEGATIVE sign preceding a parenthesis DOES affect the consents if you remove these parenthesis:

-2(4x -2y -3) ==> If you remove the parenthesis by multiplying by (-2), all signs inside will change:  the (+) become ( -) and vice versa,. However mind you, if you have a negative
Now let's take your equation: -15 - ( - 8 ) = -15 +8, remember a negative sign preceding any parenthesis will change  all signs inside if you REMOVE the parenthesis: some examples:
a) -15 + 10 -(4-32x -4y)
1st (-15 + 10) = -5 since the largest number is preceded by a NEGATIVE sign
so : -5 - (4-32x -4y) remove the parenthesis -5 -4 + 32x +4y
b) -(-5-8) -(+5+8) ==> -5-8 -5-8 = -10 - 16 => - 26

A television network is deciding whether or not to give its newest television show a spot during prime viewing time at night. If
musickatia [10]

Answer:

a. The test statistic for this hypothesis would be z=1.71

b. Critical value at α = 0.10: z=1.282

c. Reject H0, the television network should not keep its current lineup.

d. H0: p ≤ 0.50; HA: p > 0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to performa an hypothesis test on a proportion.

The claim is that the proportion of viewers that prefer the new show is bigger than 50% (meaning that most viewers prefer the new show).

The null hypothesis will state that both shows have the same proportion.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \pi\leq0.50\\\\H_a: \pi>0.5

The sample proportion is p=0.53

p=X/n=438/827=0.53

The standard error of the proportion is:

\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5*0.5}{827}}= 0.017

Then, the z-statistic can be calculated as:

z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.53-0.50-0.5/827}{0.017}=\dfrac{ 0.029 }{0.017} =1.706

The critical value for a right tailed test at a significance level of 0.10 is zc=1.282. This value can be looked up in a standard normal distribution table.

As the statistic is bigger than the critical value, it lies in the rejection region. The null hypothesis is rejected. There is evidence to support the claim that the proportion of viewers which support the new show is larger than 0.50.

If "z" is a standard normal variable, find the probability that "z" is less than 1.16. Sketch the graph and the required area.
mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It would be more obvious if it says z is a standard Normal variable and that the question is related to statistics.

From "Computing Probabilities Using the Cumulative Table" , the probability of z is less than 1.16, P(z<1.16) = 0.8770.

The mode and median of the data set below have the same value. What is the missing number?
Maru [420]
10 ! (To find the median add the two middle numbers 7,13 = 20 divide 20 by two and you get 10 as your median. Mode means the most common number which means the mode is also 10)
