Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a test of 2 population proportions. Let 1 and 2 be the subscript for the men and women who own cats respectively. The population proportion of men and women who own cats would be p1 and p2 respectively.

p1 - p2 = difference in the proportion of men and women who own cats.

The null hypothesis is

H0 : p1 = p2

p1 - p2 = 0

The alternative hypothesis is

Ha : p1 ≠ p2

p1 - p2 ≠ 0

it is a two tailed test

Sample proportion = x/n

Where

x represents number of success

n represents number of samples

For men

n1 = 80

p1 = 55/100 = 0.55

x1 = p1n1 = 0.55 × 80 = 44

For women,

n2 = 100

p2 = 30/100 = 0.3

x2 = p2n2 = 0.3 × 100 = 30

The pooled proportion, pc is

pc = (x1 + x2)/(n1 + n2)

pc = (44 + 30)/(80 + 100) = 0.41

1 - pc = 1 - 0.41 = 0.59

z = (p1 - p2)/√pc(1 - pc)(1/n1 + 1/n2)

z = (0.55 - 0.3)/√(0.41)(0.59)(1/80 + 1/100) = 3.39

Test statistic = 3.39

From a survey of 60 students attending a university, it was found that 9 were living off campus, 36 were undergraduates, and 3 w
lana66690 [7]
I think the question has to do with the number of students who are attending the university but is neither an undergraduate nor living off-campus. To help us solve this problem, we use the Venn diagram as shown in the picture. The intersection of the 2 circles would be 3 students. The students in the 'students living off-campus' circle would be 9 - 2 = 6, while the undergraduate students would be 36-3 = 33. The total number of students inside all the circles and outside the circles should sum up to 60 students.

6 + 3 + 33 + x = 60
x = 60 - 6 - 3 - 3
x = 18 students

Therefore, there are 18 students who are neither an undergraduate nor living off-campus

The top of a round table with a diameter of 5.5 feet is painted white. how many square feet are painted
Firlakuza [10]
The formula for area of a circle is:
A=(pi)r^2
If diameter is 5.5, divide by 2 to find radius is 2.75. 2.75^2 is 7.5625 then multiplied by 3.14 (pi) is 23.746.
Depending on how you round, about 23.7 square feet were painted.
