Answer: the correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kurt's truck uses 8 gallons of gas to travel 112 miles. This means that the number of miles that his truck travels with one gallon of gas would be 112/8 = 14 miles per gallon.

He has 4 gallons in the tank. The number of miles that the 4 gallons would cover is

4 × 14 = 56 miles

If he needs to drive 266 miles, the number of miles left would be

266 - 56 = 210 miles

The number of gallons of gas that would cover 210 miles is

210/14 = 15 gallons

You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of voters who prefer Candidate A is significantly different from 0.36. With
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is 0.36 so then we need to conduct a two tailed test, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.36  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.36  

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z>2.074)=0.0381  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation n  

n represent the random sample taken

\hat p estimated proportion of interest

p_o=0.36 is the value that we want to test

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 the true proportion is 0.36 so then we need to conduct a two tailed test, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.36  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.36  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, 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  is significantly different from a hypothesized value .

Calculate the statistic  

For this case the statistic is given:

z = 2.074

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 bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(z>2.074)=0.0381
