8 over 2x minus 4 over x squared

LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

4x-4/x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

So we can first write out the equation.

It would be:

8/2x-4/x^2

First we can get a common denominator:

8/2x*x^2/x^2=8x^2/2x^3

and

4/x^2*2x/2x=8x/2x^3

Now we have

8x^2/2x^3-8x/2x^3

or

8x^2-8x/2x^3

We can divide everything by x

8x-8/2x^2

divide everything by 2

4x-4/x^2

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective. A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found

irakobra [83]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 4%, that is:

$H_0: p = 0.04$

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is more than 4%, that is:

$H_a: p > 0.04$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

4% is tested at the null hypothesis

This means that $\mu = 0.04, \sigma = \sqrt{0.04*0.96}$

A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found that two of them, 10%, are defective.

This means that $n = 20, X = 0.1$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.1 - 0.04}{\frac{\sqrt{0.04*0.96}}{\sqrt{20}}}$

$z = 1.37$

P-value of the test and decision:

Considering an standard significance level of 0.05.

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion above 0.1, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.37.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.37 has a p-value of 0.9147

1 - 0.9147 = 0.0853

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.

If a study determines the difference in average salary for subpopulations of mechanical engineers and civil engineers is NOT sig

uysha [10]

Both are not earning different salaries.

If a study determines the difference in average salary for subpopulations of mechanical engineers and civil engineers is NOT significant, then the subpopulations of mechanical and civil engineers are not earning different salaries.
Study determines that there is not any significant study so thats why both are not earning.
