Nearsightedness: It is believed that nearsightedness affects about 8% of all children. In a random sample of 194 children, 21 ar
e nearsighted.
(a) What proportion of children in this sample are nearsighted?
(b) Construct hypotheses appropriate for the following question: do these data provide evidence that the 8% value is inaccurate?
(c) Given that the standard error of the sample proportion is 0.0195 and the point estimate follows a nearly normal distribution, calculate the test statistic (the Z statistic).
(d) What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?
(e) What is the conclusion of the hypothesis test?

1 answer:
Answer:
a)the proportion of student is 0.1082
b)
H1: p = .08
H2: p not equal to 0.08
H1: p =0 .08
H2: p < .08
H1: p =0 .08
H2: p >0 .08
c)z=1.45
d) the p value is 0.1470
e)null hypothesis cannot be accepted,There is no enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

it isn't possible to just give extra points in a simple and reliableway. anyways, let's starts.
a. is simple, just put the terms in order
r² +6r -5
because:
anything to the power of 0 equals 1,
because it's the same as r/r, and 5 * r/r = 5*1
b. same logic as above
a²b² -5ab +33
c.
-c³ +ab +d +9
d.
-9y^5 - 2x³y²z +4x² +10x +1
^5 = to the power of five, it's the fastest way to type it without the special math input tool.
hope it helps you
