A paper reported that in a representative sample of 282 American teens age 16 to 17, there were 71 who indicated that they had s

ent a text message while driving. For purposes of this exercise, assume that this sample is a random sample of 16- to 17-year-old Americans. Do these data provide convincing evidence that more than a quarter of Americans age 16 to 17 have sent a text message while driving? Test the appropriate hypotheses using a significance level of 0.01. (Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to four decimal places.)

Answer:

z=\frac{0.252 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{282}}}=0.0776  

p_v =P(z>0.0776)=0.4691  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level so then we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and there is no evidence in order to say that the true proportion of teens more than a quarter of Americans age 16 to 17 have sent a text message while driving is higher than 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=282 represent the sample selected

X=71 represent the teens indicated that they had sent a text message while driving

\hat p=\frac{71}{282}=0.252 estimated proportion of teens indicated that they had sent a text message while driving

p_o=0.25 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to check if more than a quarter of Americans age 16 to 17 have sent a text message while driving, and the hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.7  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.25  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing we got:

z=\frac{0.252 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{282}}}=0.0776  

Decision

The p value for this case is:

p_v =P(z>0.0776)=0.4691  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level so then we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and there is no evidence in order to say that the true proportion of teens more than a quarter of Americans age 16 to 17 have sent a text message while driving is higher than 0.25

the speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation mc025-1.jpg , where s is the speed in kilometers per hour and d i
Flura [38]
The answer is a.0.32 km.

The speed that a tsunami can travel is modeled by the equation is s = 356√d.

It is given:
s = 200 km/h
d = ?

Now, let's substitute s in the equation and find d:
s = 356√d
200 = 356√d
√d = 200 ÷ 356
√d = 0.562

Now, let's square both sides of the equation:
(√d)² = (0.562)²
d = (0.562)² = 0.316 ≈ 0.32

Therefore, <span> the approximate depth (d) of water for a tsunami traveling at 200 kilometers per hour is 0.32 km.</span>

Leslie tunes musical instruments. Leslie tuned a guitar with 6 strings today. Then she tuned a piano with 37 times as many strin
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: The piano has 222 strings, because 37×6=222.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are informed that Leslie tuned a guitar with 6 strings today and that she then tuned a piano with 37 times as many strings.

This simply means that we have to multiply 37 by 6 strings to get the value of the strings of the piano that she tuned. This will be:

= 6 × 37

= 222 strings.

Leslie tuned 222 strings.

Therefore, the piano has 222 strings, because 37×6=222.

in a right triangle, the 58cm hypotenuse makes a 51 angle with one of the legs. rounded to two decimals places, how long is that
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

36.50

To two decimal places

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothenuse side in a right angle triangle has 58cm. While the angle touching one of its leg is 51°. How long is that leg.

From the right angled triangle, the size of the leg touching the hypothenuse is the adjacent side of the triangle, hence in trigonometry, the cosine rule is used, because it involves the adjacent and the hypotenuse.

Cos 51°=x/58

Let the size of the leg be x

Making x the subject

x=58(Cos51°)

x=36.500058

Correct to two decimal place

x=36.50
