100 a month for 48 months

In a random sample of males, it was found that 28 write with their left hands and 210 do not. In a random sample of females, it

Drupady [299]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \geq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} < p_{W}$

b) $z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271$

c) $p_v =P(Z$

d) If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant lower than the proportion of female that write with their left hand

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$X_{M}=28$ represent the number of men that write with their left hand

$X_{W}=62$ represent the number of women that write with their left hand

$n_{M}=210+28=238$ sample of male selected

$n_{W}=62+435=497$ sample of female selected

$p_{M}=\frac{28}{238}=0.118$ represent the proportion of men that write with their left hand

$p_{W}=\frac{62}{497}=0.125$ represent the proportion of women that write with their left hand

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the rate of left-handedness among males is less than that among females , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \geq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} < p_{W}$

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{p_{M}-p_{W}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{M}}+\frac{1}{n_{W}})}}$ (1)

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{28+62}{238+497}=0.122$

3) Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:

$z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271$

4) Statistical decision

We have a significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ , and now we can calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a one left side test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant loer than the proportion of female that write with their left hand .

PLEASE HELP Complete the table with the number of sit-ups you have to do sunday so that the mean number of sit-ups per day is 10

klemol [59]

The complete table will be:

$Monday - 100\\ Tuesday-65\\ Wednesday- 120\\ Thursday-150\\ Friday-90\\ Saturday- 0\\ Sunday-175$

Explanation

Suppose, the number of sit-ups in Sunday is $x$

Mean is the simple average of some numbers. For finding the mean number of sit-ups per day, we need to divide the 'total number of sit-ups' by the 'total number of days'.

Here the total number of days is 7 and the total number of sit-ups for 7 days $= 100+65+120+150+90+0+x= 525+x$

Given that, the mean number of sit-ups per day is 100. So, the equation will be...

$\frac{525+x}{7}=100\\ \\ 525+x=700\\ \\ x= 700-525=175$

So, the number of sit-ups you have to do Sunday is 175.

An air traffic controller is tracking two planes. To start, Plane A is at an altitude of 4385 feet and Plane B is at an altitude

Fantom [35]

Answer:

60 seconds, 7715 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Plane A and B start out 615 feet apart, and we find this by subtracting the height of plane A from plane B, getting 5000-4385=615. Now we have to find how many more feet of altitude plane A is gaining per second over plane B.

To find this we subtract 45.25 from 55.5 and get 10.25 feet per second. Now to find out how many seconds until they'll be at the same altitude we simply divide 615 by 10.25, getting 60 seconds.

For the second part, to find the altitude at this point, we simply multiply the altitude gain of one of the planes per second by the time of 60 seconds to get how much altitude they gained over that time, and add it to the starting altitude. Doing this with plane B we get 45.25*60=2715, and we add that to 5000 to get the final answer of 7715.

Mode of 68 66 76 66 69

Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

Mode 66

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode of a data set is the number that occurs most frequently in the set. To easily find the mode, put the numbers in order from least to greatest and count how many times each number occurs. The number that occurs the most is the mode!
