A newspaper published an article about a study in which researchers subjected laboratory gloves to stress. Among 215 vinyl​ glov

es, 70​% leaked viruses. Among 215 latex​ gloves, 7​% leaked viruses.
1. Using a 0.01 significance​ level, test the claim that vinyl gloves have a greater virus leak rate than latex gloves.

Answer:

z=\frac{0.7-0.07}{\sqrt{0.385(1-0.385)(\frac{1}{215}+\frac{1}{215})}}=13.42  

p_v =P(Z>13.42)\approx 0  

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level given \alpha=0.01 we se that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can conclude that vinyl gloves have a greater virus leak rate than latex gloves at 1% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

n_{V}=215 sample of vinyl gloves selected

n_{L}=215 sample of latex gloves selected

p_{V}=0.7 represent the proportion of vynil gloves with leaked viruses

p_{L}=0.07 represent the proportion of latex gloves with leaked viruses

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

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

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the vinyl gloves have a greater virus leak rate than latex gloves , the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:p_{V} \leq p_{L}  

Alternative hypothesis:p_{V} > \mu_{L}  

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

z=\frac{p_{V}-p_{L}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{V}}+\frac{1}{n_{L}})}}   (1)

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{V}+X_{L}}{n_{V}+n_{L}}=\frac{0.7+0.07}{2}=0.385

Calculate the statistic

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

z=\frac{0.7-0.07}{\sqrt{0.385(1-0.385)(\frac{1}{215}+\frac{1}{215})}}=13.42  

Statistical decision

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

p_v =P(Z>13.42)\approx 0  

So the p value is a very low value and using any significance level given \alpha=0.01 we se that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can conclude that vinyl gloves have a greater virus leak rate than latex gloves at 1% of significance.

How do I solve for the missing angle?!<br>And please include explanations​ on how you got the answer
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

75°

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle FBG, one angle is 36.  That means the other two must total 180-36=144.  Assigning each one 72, their supplementary angle on the interior of the pentagon would be 108.

In triangle JDI, one angle is 39.  That means the other two must total 180-39=141.  Assigning each one 70.5, their supplementary angle on the interior of the pentagon would be 109.5

We now have 4 of the interior angles.  Pentagons have an interior total of 540.  540-108-108-109.5-109.5=105

x is the supplement of 105.  180-105=75
