Answer: 0.030
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: The percent of the items produced by a machine are defective :
The percent of the items produced by machine which are not defective:
Sample size : n = 100
Now, the standard error of the proportion is given by :-
Hence, the the standard error of the distribution of the sample proportions=0.030
Absolute value would be x=14
Answer: A. divided the difference of the two quantities by the sum of the two quantities.
===================================================
Explanation:
The difference of the quantities is 20-15 = 5
The sum of the quantities is 20+15 = 35
Dividing those results leads to 5/35 = 0.142857 which rounds to 0.1429
That converts to 14.29%
This is likely the path Adam took. This path is incorrect. The correct steps are shown below
---------------------
Difference = 20-15 = 5
Divide the difference over the original quantity
5/20 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%
We have a 25% decrease because the new quantity (15) is smaller than the old quantity (20)
----------------------
Here's another way to approach the problem
A = old value = 20
B = new value = 15
C = percent change
C = [ (B-A)/A ] * 100%
C = [ (15-20)/20 ] * 100%
C = (-5/20)*100%
C = -0.25*100%
C = -25%
The negative C value means we have a negative percent change, ie we have a percent decrease. So this is another way to get a 25% decrease.
I think it’s one half 1/2
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the discriminant you do b^2-4(a)(c), which in this case gives you -28. If your discriminant is less than zero, you will have no real roots.
