Answer:

Yes, we have sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level to support the company's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a sample of 1500 computer chips revealed that 32% of the chips do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use. The company's promotional literature claimed that above 29% do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use.

Let Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 0.29  {means that less than or equal to 29% do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : p > 0.29  {means that more than 29% do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use}

The test statics that will be used here is One-sample proportions test;

          T.S. = \frac{\hat p -p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = proportion of chips that do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use = 32%

            n = sample of chips = 1500

So, <u>test statistics</u> = \frac{0.32-0.29}{\sqrt{\frac{0.32(1-0.32)}{1500} } }

                              = 2.491

<em>Now, at 0.02 level of significance the z table gives critical value of 2.054. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z so we have sufficient evidence to reject null hypothesis as it fall in the rejection region.</em>

Therefore, we conclude that more than 29% do not fail in the first 1000 hours of their use which means we have sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level to support the company's claim.

Find the number of distinct triangles with the measurements a = 8, b = 14, and A = 30°.​
Maslowich

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

By the law of sines,

\frac{\sin B}{b}=\frac{\sin A}{a} \\ \\ \frac{\sin B}{14}=\frac{\sin 30^{\circ}}{8} \\ \\ \frac{\sin B}{14}=\frac{1}{16} \\ \\ \sin B=\frac{14}{16} \\ \\ B=\sin^{-1} \left(\frac{14}{16} \right), 180^{\circ}-\sin^{-1} \left(\frac{14}{16} \right) \\ \\ B \approx 61.04^{\circ}, 118.96^{\circ}

Since either of these values for B will form a triangle (as A+B will be less than 180 degrees), 2 triangles can be formed with these measurements.

Help!! 2(3x+4y)=4x+12y
katrin2010 [14]

Answer: x = 2y

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve for x.

2(3x+4y)=4x+12y

Step 1: Add -4x to both sides.

6x+8y+−4x=4x+12y+−4x

2x+8y=12y

Step 2: Add -8y to both sides.

2x+8y+−8y=12y+−8y

2x=4y

Step 3: Divide both sides by 2.

<u>2x </u>

2

=

<u>4y </u>

x=2y

Answer:

x=2y
