Answer:

$97.18^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

An obtuse angle in the triangle is opposite to the greatest side. The greatest side in the triangle with sides lengths 2, 2 and 3 is side with length 3. By the cosine rule,

$3^2=2^2+2^2-2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot \cos \alpha,\\ \\9=4+4-8\cos \alpha,\\ \\-8\cos \alpha=9-4-4=1,\\ \\\cos \alpha=-\dfrac{1}{8},\\ \\\alpha\approx 97.18^{\circ}.$

Based on the Nielsen ratings, the local CBS affiliate claims its 11:00 PM newscast reaches 41 % of the viewing audience in the a

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

1) Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.41$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.41$

2) $\hat p=0.36$ estimated proportion of people indicated that they watch the late evening news on this local CBS station

3) $z_{crit}=-2.33$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=NORM.INV(0.01,0,1)"

4) $z=\frac{0.36 -0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41(1-0.41)}{1000}}}=-1.017$

5) $z_{crit}=-1.28$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=NORM.INV(0.1,0,1)"

6) We see that $|t_{calculated}|$ so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

7) Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.41$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=100 represent the random sample taken

X represent the people indicated that they watch the late evening news on this local CBS station

$\hat p=0.36$ estimated proportion of people indicated that they watch the late evening news on this local CBS station

$p_o=0.41$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v{/tex} represent the p value (variable of interest) Part 1We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that 11:00 PM newscast reaches 41 % of the viewing audience in the area: Null hypothesis:[tex]p\geq 0.41$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.41$

Part 2

$\hat p=0.36$ estimated proportion of people indicated that they watch the late evening news on this local CBS station

Part 3

Since we have a left tailed test we need to see in the normal standard distribution a value that accumulates 0.01 of the area on the left and on this case this value is :

$z_{crit}=-2.33$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=NORM.INV(0.01,0,1)"

Part 4

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.36 -0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41(1-0.41)}{1000}}}=-1.017$

Part 5

Since we have a left tailed test we need to see in the normal standard distribution a value that accumulates 0.1 of the area on the left and on this case this value is :

$z_{crit}=-1.28$

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=NORM.INV(0.1,0,1)"

Part 6

We see that $|t_{calculated}|$ so then we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis at 1% of significance.

Part 7

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.41$

A rental car company charges $53.75 per day to rent a car and $0.12 for every mile driven. Jaya wants to rent a car, knowing tha

Aliun [14]

Answer:

Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality would have to indicate that the cost of renting a car has to be less than or equal to $230. The cost to rent a car is equal to the cost per day for the number of days plus the price per mile for the number of miles, which is:

53.75x+0.12y≤230, where:

x is the number of days the car is rented

y is the number of miles driven

As the statement says that she plans to drive 125 miles, you can replace "y" with this value and solve for x:

53.75x+0.12(125)≤230

53.75x+15≤230

53.75x≤230-15

53.75x≤215

x≤215/53.75

x≤4

According to this, the answer is that Jaya can afford to rent a car 4 days while staying within her budget.
