Answer:

z= 3.63

z for  significance level = 0.05 is ± 1.645

Step-by-step explanation:

Here p = 42% = 0.42

n= 500

We formulate our null and alternative hypotheses as

H0: p= 0.42     against Ha : p> 0.42 One tailed test

From this we can find q which is equal to 1-p= 1-0.42 = 0.58

Taking p`= 0.5

Now using the z  test

z= p`- p/ √p(1-p)/n

Putting the values

z= 0.5- 0.42/ √0.42*0.58/500

z= 0.5- 0.42/ 0.0220

z= 3.63

For one tailed test the value of z for  significance level = 0.05 is ± 1.645

Since the calculated value does not fall in the critical region we reject our null hypothesis  and accept the alternative hypothesis that more than 42%  people owned cats.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Every x value in the domain should only have 1 y value. In the graph, for x=5 (the input) there are 2 y values (6 and -6) so this is not a function.

Are these correct? If not please help me write the correct answer.​
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

Mostly correct

For Q3, you are doing great, you remembered that negative numbers can happen if the exponent is an odd number.

For Q4, I think you were confused with the fractions,

4(i)

(\frac{2}{3} )^{4} = (\frac{2^{4}}{3^{4}}) = (\frac{16}{81}) =0.198

4(ii) is also wrong but I'll let you try to fix it yourself following what I given you for 4(i). You should get 1/64

Hope this helps!
