In doing so, you collect a random sample of 50 salespersons employed by his company, which is thought to be representative of sa

les staffs of competing organizations in the industry. The collected random sample of size 50 showed that only 18 were women. Compute the p-value associated with this test. Place your answer, rounded to 4 decimal places, in the blank. For example, 0.3456 would be a legitimate entry.

Answer:

z=\frac{0.36 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{50}}}=-1.279  

p_v =P(z

And we can use the following code to find it  "=NORM.DIST(-1.279,0,1,TRUE)"

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this complete problem: "The CEO of a software company is committed to expanding the proportion of highly qualified women in the organization's staff of salespersons. He believes that the proportion of women in similar sales positions across the country is less than 45%. Hoping to find support for his belief, he directs you to test

H0: p .45 vs H1: p < .45.

In doing so, you collect a random sample of 50 salespersons employed by his company, which is thought to be representative of sales staffs of competing organizations in the industry. The collected random sample of size 50 showed that only 18 were women.

Compute the p-value associated with this test. Place your answer, rounded to 4 decimal places, in the blank. For example, 0.3456 would be a legitimate entry."

1) Data given and notation

n=50 represent the random sample taken

X=18 represent the number of women in the sample selected

\hat p=\frac{18}{50}=0.36 estimated proportion of women in the sample

p_o=0.45 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion of women is less than 0.45:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.45  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.45  

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.

3) Calculate the statistic  

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

z=\frac{0.36 -0.45}{\sqrt{\frac{0.45(1-0.45)}{50}}}=-1.279  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z

And we can use the following code to find it  "=NORM.DIST(-1.279,0,1,TRUE)"

Pierre uses 30 grams of chocolate to make
Travka [436]

Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Chocolate used to make 200 ml of chocolate sauce = 30 grams

Ratio of chocolate to milliliters of chocolate sauce = 30:200

Let,

x be the milliliters of sauce made from 450 grams of chocolate

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce = x:450

Using proportion;

Ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce:: ratio of chocolate to ml of sauce

30:200::450:x

Product of extreme = Product of mean

30*x=200*450\\30x=90000

Dividing both sides by 30

\frac{30x}{30}=\frac{90000}{30}\\x=3000

450 grams of chocolate will make 3000 milliliters of chocolate sauce.

We will convert this in liters.

1 liter = 1000 ml

3000 ml = \frac{3000}{1000} = 3 liters

Pierre can make 3 liters of chocolate sauce from 450 grams of chocolate.

5. What is the solution of |3x-3|_&lt;18?
Mrrafil [7]
Answer : D

WORK...
|3x-3| \leq 18&#10;

PART 1:
3x-3 \leq 18&#10; add 3 on both sides... 3x \leq 21 divide by 3 on both sides... x \leq 7

PART 2:
3x-3 \geq -18  add 3 on both sides... 3x \geq -15&#10; divide 3 on both sides... x \geq -5

plug both answers together..
-5 \leq x \leq 7
