We have five samples of data: sample A with 30 successes of 50 cases, sample B with 600 successes of 1000 cases, sample C with 3

000 successes of 5000 cases, sample D with 60 successes of 100 cases and sample E with 300 successes of 500 cases. We want to test if the proportion of successes is greater than 0.5. Which sample gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis?A. AB. BC. CD. DE. E

Answer:

C. with 3000 successes of 5000 cases sample

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we need to test if the proportion of success is greater than 0.5.

From the given options, we can see that they all have the same proportion which equals to;

Proportion p = 30/50 = 600/1000 = 0.6

p = 0.6

But we can notice that the number of samples in each case is different.

Test statistic z score can be calculated with the formula below;

z = (p^−po)/√{po(1−po)/n}

Where,

z= Test statistics

n = Sample size

po = Null hypothesized value

p^ = Observed proportion

Since all other variables are the same for all the cases except sample size, from the formula for the test statistics we can see that the higher the value of sample size (n) the higher the test statistics (z) and the highest z gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis. So the option with the highest sample size gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis.

Therefore, option C with sample size 5000 and proportion 0.6 has the highest sample size. Hence, option C gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis

A metallurgist has an alloy with 5% titanium and an alloy with 30% titanium. He needs 100 grams of an alloy with 15% titanium. H
andrey2020 [161]
Let us convert the percentages to decimal format first.. so 5% is just 5/100 or 0.05 and 15% is just 15/100 or 0.15

so hmmm, so, let's say it needs "x" amount and "y" amount of each respectively, so, whatever "x" and "y" are, they must add up to 100, and whatever their concentration is, must add up to what the mixture yields

thus

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&amount&concentration&
\begin{array}{llll}
concentrated\\
amount
\end{array}\\
&-----&-------&-------\\
\textit{5\% alloy}&x&0.05&0.05x\\
\textit{30\% alloy}&y&0.30&0.3y\\
-----&-----&-------&-------\\
mixture&100&0.15&15
\end{array}
\\\\\\
\begin{cases}
x+y=100\implies \boxed{y}=100-x\\
0.05x+0.3y=15\\
----------\\
0.5x+0.3\left( \boxed{100-x} \right)=15
\end{cases}

solve for "x"

what's "y"? well, y = 100 - x

So, the area <br> Find the area of the figure of
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The area of the figure is 117m²

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, you have two shapes. One shape is a rectangle. The other shape is a triangle.

Area of a rectangle = b*h = 9*7 = 63

Area of a triangle = \frac{1}{2}(b*h) =

Since there are two triangles, you will multiply the area of the one triangle in the figure by 2.

27*2 = 54

Now, you add up the areas!

54 + 63 = 117

So, the area of the figure is 117m²

How to find volume of sphere explain step by step
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer: What is the easiest way to find the volume of a sphere?

Image result for How to find volume of sphere explain step by step

To calculate the volume of a sphere, use the formula v = ⁴⁄₃πr³, where r is the radius of the sphere. If you don't have the radius, you can find it by dividing the diameter by 2. Once you have the radius, plug it into the formula and solve to find the volume.
