Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate the test statistic for a test for the diference between proportions.

The sample 1 (year 1995), of size n1=4276 has a proportion of p1=0.384.

$p_1=X_1/n_1=1642/4276=0.384$

The sample 2 (year 2010), of size n2=3908 has a proportion of p2=0.3621.

$p_2=X_2/n_2=1415/3908=0.3621$

The difference between proportions is (p1-p2)=0.0219.

$p_d=p_1-p_2=0.384-0.3621=0.0219$

The pooled proportion, needed to calculate the standard error, is:

$p=\dfrac{X_1+X_2}{n_1+n_2}=\dfrac{1642+1415}{4276+3908}=\dfrac{3057}{8184}=0.3735$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_1}+\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.3735*0.6265}{4276}+\dfrac{0.3735*0.6265}{3908}}\\\\\\s_{p1-p2}=\sqrt{0.00005+0.00006}=\sqrt{0.00011}=0.0107$

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

$z=\dfrac{p_d-(\pi_1-\pi_2)}{s_{p1-p2}}=\dfrac{0.0219-0}{0.0107}=\dfrac{0.0219}{0.0107}=2.05$

z=2.05

You purchase 26 parking hours that you can use the next month to park your food truck at the fair. Weekday hours park $2 per hou

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Number of week day hours purchased is 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of Parking hours purchased = 26 parking hours

Parking cost on weekdays = $2 per hour

Parking costs on weekends = $10 per hour

Total amount spent on parking = $220.

To Find:

Number of week days purchased = ?

Solution:

Let

The number of week days purchased be x

The number of weekends purchased be y

We know that the total hours purchased is 26

So,

x+y = 26

y = 26-x------------------------------------------------------(1)

Now the total cost is 220

(Total number of weekdays X cost per weekday ) +(Total number of weekends + cost per weekend) =220

Substituting the values

=> $x\times 2 + y \times 10$ = 220

=> $x \times 2 + (26-x) \times 10 =220$

=>2x + 260 -10x =220

=>260 -8x = 220

=>260 -220 =8x

=>40 = 8x

=>x= $\frac{40}{8}$

x= 5-------------------------------------------(2)

Now substituting (2) in (1) we get

y= 26-5

y= 21

Answer:

A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached graph shows which lines go through the given point. They are ...

y = 1/2x -1 . . . . 1st selection

y = -1/6x +3 . . . 3rd selection

The equations can be found algebraically by substituting the given point in the equation and seeing if the result is a true statement.

a) 2 = (1/2)(6) -1 = 3 -1 . . . true

b) 2 = -3(6) . . . . false

c) 2 = -1/6(6) +3 = -1 +3 . . . true

d) 2 = 2/3(6) -1 = 4 -1 . . . . false

e) 2 = 4(6) -2 = 24 -2 . . . . false

f) 2 = -3/2(6) +6 = -9 +6 . . . . false
