alekssr [168]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Common ratio (r) = 2nd term / 1st term = 15/3 = 5

Recursive formula:

a_{n}=a_{n-1}*r \\\\a_{n}=a_{n-1}*5\\=5a_{n-1}

Explicit formula:

a = first term = 3

a_{n}=ar^{n-1}\\\\a_{n}=3*(5)^{n-1}\\

g A certain financial services company uses surveys of adults age 18 and older to determine if personal financial fitness is cha
leva [86]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:p_{1} = p_{2}    

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} \neq p_{2}  

z=\frac{0.410-0.35}{\sqrt{0.385(1-0.385)(\frac{1}{1000}+\frac{1}{700})}}=2.502    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.502)= 0.0123    

Comparing the p value with the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the proportion analyzed is significantly different between the two groups at 5% of significance.    

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation    

X_{1}=410 represent the number of people indicating that their financial security was more than fair for the recent year

X_{2}=245 represent the number of people indicating that their financial security was more than fair for the year before

n_{1}=1000 sample 1 selected  

n_{2}=700 sample 2 selected  

p_{1}=\frac{410}{1000}=0.410 represent the proportion estimated of indicating that their financial security was more than fair this year

p_{2}=\frac{245}{700}=0.35 represent the proportion estimated of indicating that their financial security was more than fair the year before

\hat p represent the pooled estimate of p

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

p_v represent the value for the test (variable of interest)  

\alpha significance level given  

Concepts and formulas to use    

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if is there is a difference between the two proportions, the system of hypothesis would be:    

Null hypothesis:p_{1} = p_{2}    

Alternative hypothesis:p_{1} \neq p_{2}    

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:    

z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}   (1)  

Where \hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{410+245}{1000+700}=0.385  

z-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.    

Calculate the statistic  

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:    

z=\frac{0.410-0.35}{\sqrt{0.385(1-0.385)(\frac{1}{1000}+\frac{1}{700})}}=2.502    

Statistical decision  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:    

p_v =2*P(Z>2.502)= 0.0123    

Comparing the p value with the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the proportion analyzed is significantly different between the two groups at 5% of significance.

At a food festival, 3/8 of the dishes were from china. Another 12.5% of the dishes were from japan. What percent of the dishes w
MrMuchimi

Answer: 50%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = Total dishes.

Dishes from China = \dfrac38x

Dishes from Japan  = 12.5\% \text{ of }x= 0.125x

Total dishes  from China and Japan = \dfrac38 x+0.125x=0.375x+0.125x=0.5x

Dishes from other countries = x- 0.5x= 0.5x

Percent of dishes from other countries= \dfrac{0.5x}{x}\times100\%= 50\%

Hence, dishes from other countries = 50%

My name is Ann [436]
Let, S = Shirt, J = Jeans

14a) 
This question asks for the discount to be added after everything else.
S= 12   J=19

3S + 2J -3 = Cost with discount applied to total
^ This expression adds to costs, then takes away the $3 discount as the end.

14b)
This questions says the discount is added on every shirt, we get a similar expression:
3(S-3) + 2(J-3) = Cost with discount applied on every shirt and jeans

14c)
The difference between a) and b) is that:
 > the discount in a) is applied on the total, meaning a lower discount
> the discount for b) is applied on each shirt and jeans, meaning a greater discount

14d)
If I were the shop owner I would be more specific of what the discount included, for example we don't know whether to discount each product (shirts and jeans) or only discount the total.
