Light A flashes every 2 minutes while light B flashes every 7. The goal is to figure out when both lights flash at the same time and then figure out the other part later. You have to find the common multiples of 7 and 2. Meaning that you have to find out which number can they both be multiplied into. In this case, it is 14 because 7 can be multiplied by 2 to get 14 and 2 can be multiplied by 7. So if every 14 minutes they flash together at the same time, now you need to find out what time AFTER 3 will they both flash. You know that they both flashed at 1:00 so they will flash again at 1:14 and 1:28 and so on, but you need to find out when is the soonest they will flash after 3. 2 hours after the 1:00 flash will be 3:00 so that is 120 minutes. 120 minutes divided by 14 minutes comes to 8.5 but you dont need the decimal. Just simply multiply 14 by 8 and that comes to 112 minutes and if you add that to 1:00 you get 2:52. so they flashed at 2:52 so the next time they flash will be 14 minutes after 2:52. Sorry for the super long answer

Answer:

Yes, there is enough evidence to say the proportions are the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis: The proportions are the same.

Alternate hypothesis: The proportions are not the same.

Data given:

p1 = 51% = 0.51

n1 = 200

p2 = 48% = 0.48

n2 = 150

pooled proportion (p) = (n1p1 + n2p2) ÷ (n1 + n2) = (200×0.51 + 150×0.48) ÷ (200 + 150) = 174 ÷ 350 = 0.497

Test statistic (z) = (p1 - p2) ÷ sqrt[p(1-p)(1/n1 + 1/n2) = (0.51 - 0.48) ÷ sqrt[0.497(1-0.497)(1/200 + 1/150)] = 0.03 ÷ 0.054 = 0.556

The test is a two-tailed test. At 0.10 significance level the critical values -1.645 and 1.645

Conclusion:

Fail to reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic 0.556 falls within the region bounded by the critical values.
