Company A makes a large shipment to Company B. Company B can reject the shipment if they can conclude that the proportion of def

ective items in the shipment is larger than 0.1. In a sample of 400 items from the shipment, Company B finds that 59 are defective. Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test for Company B using a 0.05 level of significance.

Answer:

z=\frac{0.1475-0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{400}}}=3.17  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(z>3.17)=0.00076  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 0.1 and then Company B can reject the shipment

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=400 represent the random sample taken

X=59 represent number of defectives from the company B

\hat p=\frac{59}{400}=0.1475 estimated proportion of defectives from the company B  

p_o=0.1 is the value to verify

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to verify if the true proportion of defectives is higher than 0.1 then the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.1  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.1  

The statistic would be given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{0.1475-0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{400}}}=3.17  

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(z>3.17)=0.00076  

For this case the p value is lower than the significance level so then we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 0.1 and then Company B can reject the shipment

Help finals study guide please I want to just go on break​
timofeeve [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

(note: I'm only answering the ones I know vs giving you wrong answers for the others!)

1. ROS=Obtuse (larger then ninty degrees)

2. octagon has 8 angles (octo means eight, after all!)

3. If a figure has three sides, it is a triagle (not positive on this one)

4. symmetric property of congruence (this one's a simple search :p )

5. N/A (although I believe its angle BEC=124 degrees, as every other choice Is proven to be true)

6. congruent complements theorem (this is because we are given that 3 is a suppliment of 4. we are also given that 2=4. Based on this, then 1=3 is congruent based on 1 being suppliment of 2, 2=4, and 3 being a suppliment of 4)

7. N/A

8. N/A (the picture is too fuzzy for me to make any ideas)

I'm sorry I couldn't solve them all, but I hope this at least gets you somewhere! Have a great day!

What are the missing sides and angles of this triangle? What is the area?
Butoxors [25]
This does not appear to be a right triangle.  However, we know 2 sides and the included angle, so can find the unknown side length.  Let x represent this length.  Then:

x^2 = (9 m)^2 + (12 m)^2 - 2(9m)(12 m)*cos 30 degrees, or

x^2 = 81 + 144 - 216(sqrt(3) / 2).  Please solve for x^2 and then solve the result for x, making sure to choose the positive value.  The result will be the length of the side opposite the 30 degree angle.

With 1 of 3 angles known, and 3 of 3 sides known, you can use the Law of Sines to find the other two angles.  As a reminder, the Law of Sines looks like this:

   a            b              c
-------- = --------- = ----------
sin A       sin B       sin C.

You can give the 30-deg angle any name you want; then a, the length of the side opposite the 30-deg angle, which you have just found.  And so on.

A) Evaluate 20/101 - 20/99. Express your answer in simplest form.
gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

Rounded Answer: 0

Not Rounded Answer: -0.00198019802

Step-by-step explanation:

Rounded Answer:

20/101 = 0.19801980198

Round that to 0.2

20/99 = 0.2

0.2-0.2 = 0

Not Rounded Answer:

20/101 = 0.19801980198

20/99 = 0.2

Answer: -0.00198019802
