A professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their class

es. He randomly samples a group of seniors and out of 2521 classes, the group skipped 77.
1. Based on the sample, does it appear that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes?
2. State the critical value (CV), test statistic (TS), and decision from the test. (Use α = 0.01.)

Answer:

We conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes at 0.01 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their classes.

He randomly samples a group of seniors and out of 2521 classes, the group skipped 77.

<u><em /></u>

<u><em>Let p = percentage of seniors who skip their classes.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p \leq 2%   {means that seniors skip less than or equal to 2% of their classes}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p > 2%   {means that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample z proportion</u> <u>statistics</u>;

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

where, \hat p = sample proportion of seniors who skipped their classes = \frac{77}{2521}

           n = sample of classes = 2521

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{\frac{77}{2521} -0.02}{{\sqrt{\frac{\frac{77}{2521}(1-\frac{77}{2521})}{2521} } } } }

                               =  3.08

The value of the test statistics is 3.08.

Now at 0.01 significance level, <u>the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test</u>. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 2.3263 < 3.08, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes.

Find the radius of the sphere with the given volume. Show all work
yaroslaw [1]

Answer:

r = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a sphere is given by

V = 4/3 pi r^3

4500 pi = 4/3 pi r^3

Divide each side by pi

4500 = 4/3  r^3

Multiply each side by 3/4

3/4 *4500  = 3/4 *4/3  r^3

3375 = r^3

Take the cube root of each side

(3375)^(1/3) = (r^3)^(1/3)

15 = r

Pls Someone help me I don't understand math very well can someone help me on how to get the answer for 1/4 x 8 4/9?
Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

2 4/36

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this, multiply the whole number by the denominator and add it to the numerator.

8 x 9 = 72

72 + 4 = 76

76/9

<em>Then multiply across (multiply numerators with numerators; denominators with denominators)</em>

76 x 1 = 76

9 x 4 = 36

76/36 = 2  4/36

____________________________

<em>A faster way to do this is to multiply the whole number by the fraction and then the fraction by the fraction.</em>

1/4 x 8/1 = 8/4 = 2

1/4 x 4/9 = 4/36

 = 2  4/36
