The professor surveys 500 college students and finds that 75 of them favor reducing the deficit using only spending cuts. What is the test statistic?

Answer:

Option C is correct.

The test statistic for this question is -3.13

Step-by-step explanation:

To compute the z-test statistic, the formula is given as

z = (x - μ₀)/σₓ

x = p = sample proportion of the 500 college students sampled, that favor reducing the deficit using only spending cuts with no tax increase = (75/500) = 0.15

μ₀ = p₀ = the proportion to be compared against, that is, the proportion of Americans that favor reducing the U.S. budget deficit by using spending cuts only, with no tax increases = 20% = 0.20

σₓ = standard error of the sample proportion = √[p(1-p)/n]

p = 0.15

n = Sample size = 500

σₓ = √[0.15×0.85/500] = 0.01597

z = (0.15 - 0.20) ÷ 0.01597

z = -3.13

Hope this Helps!!!

you buy two rolls of wrapping paper. each roll has the same lateral surface area. what is the diameter of roll B?
Sonbull [250]
I saw the image that should have been posted with this word problem.

The rolls of wrapping paper is cylindrical in shape.

Roll A : length = 30 inches ; diameter = 3 inches
Roll B : length = 24 inches ; diameter = unknown

Lateral surface area = 2 π r h

Lateral Surface area of Roll A = Lateral Surface area of Roll B
2 * 3.14 * 1.5in * 30in = 2 * 3.14 * r * 24 in
282.60 in² = 150.72 in * r
282.60 in² / 150.72 in = r
1.875 in = r

diameter is 2 times the radius = 1.875 in * 2 = 3.75 inches

The diameter of Roll B is 3.75 inches.
