Not always cause you can find it in the middle but u also might find the IQR

No, because remember the Median of a data set is the middle number once you have put all of the data number in order from least to greatest.

In a recent survey, 72 out of 100 consumers reported that they preferred plastic bags instead of paper bags for their groceries.

kupik [55]

Answer:

a) P=0.03

b) α=0.05

c) 0.72

d) 100

e) 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The P-value is the probability of the sample result. In this case the P-value is 0.03.

b) The level of significance is the threshold of probabilty for the null hypothesis to be reejcted or not. It is contrasted with the P-value to know if the effect is significant. In this case, the level of significance is 0.05.

NOTE: if it is a two-side test, the level of significance is 0.1 (two times 0.05).

c) The sample proportion is the one that results from the sample data. In this case, the sample proportion is 0.72.

$p=72/100=0.72$

d) The sample size is the amount of consumers reported. In this case is 100 customers.

e) The null value is 0.72 (equal to the sample proportion), because it is tested if there is no difference between the population proportion and the sample proportion.

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

$x^{1}$ wives

$x^{2}$ sacks

$x^{3}$ cats

$x^{4}$ kits

Suppose the man in the St. Ives poem has x wives, each wife has x sacks, each sack has x cats, and each cat has x kits. Write an expression using exponents that represents the total number of kits, cats, sacks, and wives going to St .Ives.

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^{1}$ wives

If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, so the number of sacks is:

$x^{2}$ sacks

If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, and each sack has "x" cats, so the number of cats is:

$x^{3}$ cats

If each of the "x" wives has "x" sacks, and each sack has "x" cats, and each cat has "x" kits, so the number of kits is:

$x^{4}$ kits

One more than the difference between 18 and seven times in number is -9

almond37 [142]

18-7n+1= -9

You just have to ignore the first thing it asks for, and then write out what it's saying. Since it's asking for the difference, you have to subtract what it tells you to. In this case they are asking for you to subtract 7 times a number from 18 which is the same as writing 18-7n. Then, go back to the first thing it asks for and that wants you to add one. You now have this: 18-7n+1. Now all you have to do is set it equal to whatever it asks you for, which is -9. The final product should look like this:

18-7n+1= -9

I hope this helps and if you could let me know if I helped, that would be greatly appreciated!
