600 * 28% = 168

So, 168 students should be expected.

Roughly 168

multiply 0.28 by 600

A buyer went to the market to buy strawberries. He purchased 120 randomly selected strawberries from a vendor who claimed that n
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.333 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{120}}}=2.10  

p_v =P(z>2.10)=0.018  

At 5% of significance we can conclude that the true proportion of strawberries damage is higher than 0.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=120 represent the random sample taken

X=40 represent the number of strawberries damaged

\hat p=\frac{40}{120}=0.333 estimated proportion of strawberries damaged

p_o=0.25 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that no more than 25% of his total harvest of strawberries was damaged.:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.25  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.25  

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

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

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

z=\frac{0.333 -0.25}{\sqrt{\frac{0.25(1-0.25)}{120}}}=2.10  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>2.10)=0.018  

At 5% of significance we can conclude that the true proportion of strawberries damage is higher than 0.25

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.
Mazyrski [523]

Complete Question:

Kyle held a balloon 8 feet off the ground, straight above his head. Ava is standing 15 feet directly to the right of Kyle.

Write an equation using the Pythagorean Theorem to find the value of x.  

How far are Ava's feet from the balloon?

Answer:

Ava's feet is 17ft away from the balloon

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

height = 8ft

distance = 15ft

The attached image represents the scenario

Using Pythagoras theorem (from the attachment), we have:

x^2 = 8^2 + 15^2

x^2 = 64 + 225

x^2 =289

Take square roots of both sides

x = \sqrt{289

x = 17

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4(8+2n) = 4 + 4n

32 + 8n = 4+4n

4n = -28

n = -7
