Substituting (x, y) with (a, a), since we have:

3a=2a-4, which means that 3a-2a=-4, that is a=-4.

So, the point is (-4, -4).

Remark: a point which lies in the graph of an equation is a solution of that equation. So x=a, y=a satisfies the equation <span> 3y = 2x -4, which makes our substitution legitimate.

Answer: </span>(-4, -4).

The claim is that the proportion of adults who smoked a cigarette in the past week is less than 0.30, and the sample statistics

IrinaK [193]

Answer: 0.84

Step-by-step explanation:

let p be the population proportion of adults who smoked a cigarette in the past week.

As per given , we have

$H_a: p$

Sample size : n= 1491

The sample proportion of adults smoked a cigarette= $\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{462}{1491}=0.30985915493\approx0.31$

The test statistic for proportion is given by :-

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

Substitute all the values , we get

$z=\dfrac{0.31-0.30}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.30(1-0.30)}{1491}}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.01}{\sqrt{0.000141}}\\\\=\dfrac{0.01}{0.011874342087}=0.84261497731\approx0.84$

Hence, the value of the test statistic = 0.84
