ble to produce light due to a genetic mutation. Use the parameter​ p, the true proportion of fireflies unable to produce light.
Express the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis in symbolic form for a test to support this claim.
A. H0: p > 0.0016
H1: p <= 0.0016
B. H0: p < 0.0016
H1: p >= 0.0016
C. H0: p = 0.0016
H1: p < 0.0016
D: H0: p = 0.0016
H1: p > 0.0016

Answer:

a) H0: p > 0.0016

H1: p ≤ 0.0016

Step-by-step explanation:

A null hypothesis states that there is no relation between two variables, it's what the researcher wants to discredit.

On the other hand, the alternative hypothesis is what the researcher tries to prove.

<u>The claim of this entomologists is that fewer than 16 in ten thousand male fireflies are unable to produce light due to a genetic mutation. Therefore, this claim is what he wants to prove and it would be the alternative hypothesis.</u>

H1: p ≤ 0.0016

The null hypothesis would be the opposite of the alternative hypothesis and therefore it would be:

H0: p > 0.0016

What is 16 out of 24 as a grade
Dominik [7]
16 out of 24 would equal around 67%, and that as a grade would be a D.
However, grades MAY vary from school to school.
But on average:
A= 100 through 90, B= 89 through 80, C= 79 through 70, D= 69 through 60, and an F= 59 and below that.
Keep in my mind that if your grade has digits after the decimal, it will be rounded (in your case) and that may also change your grade, for example if your grade is 79.7%, then it will be rounded to 80%, and your grade will be a B.

The number of popcorns sold at a movie theatre was 8 less than three times the number hotdogs. How many hotdogs did the theatre
serg [7]

Answer:

  200

Step-by-step explanation:

If the theater sold 8 more popcorns, the total would be 600, and it would be exactly 3 times the number of hotdogs. The theater sold 1/3 of 600, or 200 hotdogs.
