Answer:

a) 0.46; b) 0.41; c) 0.19; d) 0.59

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a,

There were 121 people that walked by; out of these 56 entered the store.  This is an empirical probability of

56/121 ≈ 0.46

For part b,

There were 56 people that entered the store.  Of those, 23 bought something.  This is an empirical probability of

23/56 ≈ 0.41.

For part c,

We multiply the probability that someone walking by enters the store and the probability that someone entering the store buys something:

0.46(0.41) = 0.1886 ≈ 0.19

For part d,

Since the probability of someone entering the store buying something is 0.41, this means the probability that this person does not buy something is

1-0.41 = 0.59.

An education firm measures the high school dropout rate as the percentage of 16 to 24 year olds who are not enrolled in school a
posledela

Answer:

The value of the test statistic z = -0.6606

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The high dropout rate is \mu  = 6.1%  = 0.061

      The  sample size is  n = 1000

       The  number of dropouts x = 56

       The probability of having a dropout in 1000 people  \= x  = \frac{56}{1000}  =  0.056

Now setting up Test Hypothesis

 Null  H_o :  p = 0.061

 Alternative  H_a : p < 0.061        

The Test statistics is mathematically represented as

                 z = \frac{\= x - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 -p)}{n} } }

substituting values

               z = \frac{0.056 - 0.061}{\sqrt{\frac{0.061(1 -0.061)}{1000} } }

               z = -0.6606

Can someone please help me. It is slope intercept form
Tom [10]

Answer:

  1. the y intercept is 1
  2. the slope of this line is 1
  3. the equation of the line is y = x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First Take two coordinates the line is passing: ( 0 , 1 ) , ( -1 , 0 )

To find slope use: \frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

                             : \frac{0-1}{-1-0}

                             : 1

Equation using: y= mx+b ...where m is slope and b is y intercept therefore:

Equation of the line:

y = x + 1
