Answer:

A proportional relationship is just a linear relationship where the line goes through the origin, this also means b ( the y intercept ) would equal 0.

y=mx

A proportional relationship is just a linear relationship where b = 0, or to put it another way, where the line passes through the origin (0,0).

A volleyball team won 10 of its 16 game what is the win-loss ratio

diamong [38]

A ratio is a set of two numbers of comparison. It claims the Volleyball team has 10 OUT OF 16 games. So win to loss, they won 10 games, but there was sixteen games. Meaning they had lost 6 games. So since it's asking about the ratio of WIN to LOSS, it would be 10:6. :-) Hope this helped.

Answer:

Probability of choosing first girl = 11/20

Next one would be 10/19

11/20 x 10/19 = 11/38

A statistician is testing the null hypothesis that exactly half of all engineers will still be in the profession 10 years after

lana [24]

Answer:

95% confidence interval estimate for the proportion of engineers remaining in the profession is [0.486 , 0.624].

(a) Lower Limit = 0.486

(b) Upper Limit = 0.624

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a statistician is testing the null hypothesis that exactly half of all engineers will still be in the profession 10 years after receiving their bachelor's.

She took a random sample of 200 graduates from the class of 1979 and determined their occupations in 1989. She found that 111 persons were still employed primarily as engineers.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of persons who were still employed primarily as engineers = $\frac{111}{200}$ = 0.555

n = sample of graduates = 200

p = population proportion of engineers

<em>Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion test statistics.</em>

So, 95% confidence interval for the population proportion, p is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95 {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level of

significance are -1.96 & 1.96}

P(-1.96 < $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < 1.96) = 0.95

P( $-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < ${\hat p-p}$ < $1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

P( $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ < p < $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ) = 0.95

<u>95% confidence interval for p</u> = [ $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ , $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }$ ]

= [ $0.555-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.555(1-0.555)}{200} } }$ , $0.555+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.555(1-0.555)}{200} } }$ ]

= [0.486 , 0.624]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the estimate for the proportion of engineers remaining in the profession is [0.486 , 0.624].
