One survey showed that among 785 randomly selected subjects who completed four years of college, 18.3% smoke and a 98% confidenc

e interval for the true percentage of smokers among all people who completed four years of college is 15.1% to 21.6%. Based on the result, the smoking rate for those with four years of college appears to be substantially different than the 27% rate for the general population.

Answer

a. True

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on this survey we estimate that about 18.3\% of the college students smokes. And a 98\% confidence interval is [15.1\% ; 21.6\%].  So we know that our estimative for the smoking rate is in the confidence interval with 98\% certainty. We also know the estimative for the smoking rate in the general population is 27\%. So we can write the two possible hypothesis:

H_0 = Smoking rate is equal to 27\%.

H_1 = Smoking rate is not equal to 27\%.

We will reject the null hypothesis (H_0) if the estimate doesn't fall into the confidence interval for the college students smoking rate.

Since this condition holds we reject the null hypothesis. So with 98\% certainty we say that the smoking rate for the general population is different than the smoking rate for the college students.

Nitella [24]
So what you will need to do is subtract 2x - 3x = -x, then subtract three from both sides 8 - 3 and the answer will be -x + 5

Evaluate the integral Find the volume of material remaining in a hemisphere of radius 2 after a cylindrical hole ofradius 1 is d
algol13

You want to find the volume inside the hemisphere x^2+y^2+z^2=4 (i.e. inside the sphere but above the plane z=0) and outside the cylinder x^2+y^2=1. Call this region R.

In cylindrical coordinates, we have

\displaystyle\iiint_R\mathrm dV=\int_0^{2\pi}\int_1^2\int_0^{\sqrt{4-r^2}}r\,\mathrm dz\,\mathrm dr\,\mathrm d\theta

\displaystyle=2\pi\int_1^2 r\sqrt{4-r^2}\,\mathrm dr

\displaystyle=-\pi\int_3^0\sqrt u\,\mathrm du

(where u=4-r^2)

\displaystyle=\pi\int_0^3\sqrt u\,\mathrm du

=\dfrac{2\pi}3u^{3/2}\bigg|_0^3=2\sqrt3\,\pi

Abby has a jewelry business. She uses small square boxes to ship her homemade rings to stores to sell. The ring box measures 12
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

Volume of Shipping box= lenghth × breadth × height

Volume of ring box= side × side × side

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of ring box = 12×12×12

=1728 units

Volume of shipping box= 1012×8×3

=24288 units

number of ring boxes in shipping box= 24288/1728

= 14.

Hope am correct

Thanks

Which of the following situations calls for a hypothesis test about a population mean?
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis test about a population mean is done to evaluate two exclusive statements about a population in order to determine which is best supported by the sample data.

From the situations given, the correct options are

b. A recent study estimated that 20% of all college students in the United States smoke. The head of Health Services at Goodheart University suspects that the proportion of smokers may be lower there. This would require taking a sample and determining the probability of success.

c. A certain prescription allergy medicine is suppose to contain an average of 245 parts per million (ppm) of active ingredient. The manufacturer wants to check whether the mean concentration in a large shipment of pills is 245 ppm or not.

d. A report on the College Board website stated that in 2003 males scored generally higher than females on the SAT exam. An educational researcher wants to check whether this is true in her school district.
