Answer:

The second group

Step-by-step explanation:

The first group is 4 apples for 3 friends.

= 4/3. They each got 1 & 1/3 of an apple.

The second group is 6 apples for 4 friends.

= 6/4. They each got 1 & 1/2 of an apple.

1 1/3 < 1 1/2, so friends in the second group get a larger portion of apples

The regular price of a winter coat is $65.50. It is on sale for $52.40. what is the percent decrease of the winter coat
marishachu [46]
I believe the percent decrease is 20%
as when you multiply 65.5 by 20%
it gives you 13.1
when you minus 13.1 from 65.50
it gives you $52.4

Find the square root of each. If the radicand is not a perfect square, estimate the square
Shkiper50 [21]
First off, the underline underneath means plus or minus, since when you take the square root of something, the answer can be negative or positive at the same time
1. 64 is a perfect square. 8 x 8 = 64, therefore it is +- (plus or minus) 8.

2. 45 is not a perfect square, so you can pull out numbers or plug into a calculator and estimate.
Both answers: Since 45 is divisible by 9 and five, you can break a nine into two threes, therefore pull it out, and since the answer is negative, you get:
-3(5)^0.5 (an exponent of one-half or 0.5 means square root)
If you solve by calculator, the answer is ~= (approximately equal to) -6.72

3. Since 90 is not a perfect square, repeat the previous question. 9 can go into 90, therefore you can pull out two threes and are left with: +-3(10)^0.5
Using the calculator, you get ~= +-9.49

A sample of 114 mortgages approved during the current year showed that 36 were issued to a single-earner family or individual. T
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a-1) Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

a-2) z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

a-3) ii. False

b) ii. No

c) iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=114 represent the random sample taken

X=36 represent the people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

\hat p=\frac{36}{114}=0.316 estimated proportion of people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

p_o=0.28 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

(a-1) H0: π ≤ .28 versus H1: π > .28. Choose the right option. Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645 Reject H0 if zcalc < 1.645 a b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is less than 0.28.:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.28  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.28  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

The rejection zone would be on this case :

Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

Since is a right tailed test

(a-2) Calculate the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) Test statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

(a-3) The null hypothesis should be rejected.

False, since our calculated value is less than our critical value we Fails to reject the null hypothesis

(b) Is this a close decision?

False the calculated value is significantly less than the critical value so we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis with enough confidence.

(c) State any assumptions that are required.

In order to satisfy the conditions we need the following two requirements:

iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

And are satisfied:

114*0.28=31.92>10

114(1-0.28)=82,08>10

Worth 50 points and I will mark brainliest.

x= -13 , y=11

Step-by-step explanation:

Using elimination method, make the x variable equal to eliminate the variable

-3x - y = -28

2x+ 3y=7

2(-3x-y =28)

3(2x+3y=7)

-6x - 2y =56

6x +9y=21

Apply addition

7y = 77

y=77/7 = 11

Use the value of y=11 in  

2x+ 3y=7

2x +3(11) =7

2x +33 =7

2x=7-33

2x= -26

x= -26/2 = -13
