Answer:

Z = -1.333

P-value  = 0.09176

Decision Rule: Reject H_o if ∝  is greater than the P-value

Conclusion: Since P-value is >  the level of significance ∝, we fail to reject the null hypothesis, therefore there is insufficient evidence to conclude that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The sample size of the poll = 1068

The proportion of voters that preferred Democratic candidate is \hat p = 0.48

To test the claim that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat, i.e 1/2 = 0.5

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

H_o : p \geq 0.50

H_1 : p < 0.50

Using the Z test statistics which can be expressed by the formula:

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

Z = \dfrac{0.48 - 0.5}{\dfrac{\sqrt{0.5(1-0.5) }}{1068}}}

Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{{0.5(0.5) }}{1068}}}

Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{\sqrt{\dfrac{{0.25}}{1068}}}

Z = \dfrac{-0.02}{0.015}

Z = -1.333

P-value = P(Z< -1.33)

From z tables,

P-value  = 0.09176

The level of significance ∝ = 0.05

Decision Rule: Reject H_o if ∝  is greater than the P-value

Conclusion: Since P-value is >  the level of significance ∝, we fail to reject the null hypothesis, therefore there is insufficient evidence to conclude that at least half of all voters prefer the Democrat.

The graph below shows the heights and arm spans of students in a classroom. Height and Arm Span of Students Based on the graph,
xxMikexx [17]

The best prediction of the height of a student with an arm span of 143 cm is 143 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing graph is attached

The graph below shows the heights and arm spans of students in

a classroom

  • The x-axis represents the height in cm
  • The y-axis represents the arm span in cm

We need to find the height of a student with an arm span of 143 cm

∵ The graph does not contain the value of the given arm span

∴ We will use the line best fit (sold line in the attached graph) to find

   the best predication of the height

∵ The line passes through points (150 , 150) and (160 , 160)

- The x-coordinates are equal the y-coordinate

∴ The equation of the line is y = x

∵ The arm span of a student is 143 cm

∵ y represents the arm span of a student

∴ y = 143

- Substitute the value of y in the equation of the line best fit

∵ y = x

∴ 143 = x

∵ x represents the height of a student

∴ The height of the student is 143 cm

The best prediction of the height of a student with an arm span of 143 cm is 143 cm

A line that goes through the origin represents a proportional relationship.  Since the line passes through zero-zero, it means that the relationship between the number of notebooks and the cost is proportional The unit rate is represented by the point one-y. The point one, two and seventy-five hundredths represents the unit rate, which means each notebook costs two dollars and seventy-five cents.
