A survey was conducted in the United Kingdom, where respondents were asked if they had a university degree. One question asked,

katovenus [111]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.121-0.0892}{\sqrt{0.101(1-0.101)(\frac{1}{373}+\frac{1}{639})}}=1.620$

$p_v =2*P(Z>1.620)=0.105$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the two proportions are not statistically different at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$X_{1}=45$ represent the number of correct answers for university degree holders

$X_{2}=57$ represent the number of correct answers for university non-degree holders

$n_{1}=373$ sample 1 selected

$n_{2}=639$ sample 2 selected

$p_{1}=\frac{45}{373}=0.121$ represent the proportion of correct answers for university degree holders

$p_{2}=\frac{57}{639}=0.0892$ represent the proportion of correct answers for university non-degree holders

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

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

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportions are different between the two groups, 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 $\hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{45+57}{373+639}=0.101$

Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{0.121-0.0892}{\sqrt{0.101(1-0.101)(\frac{1}{373}+\frac{1}{639})}}=1.620$

Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided $\alpha$ , but we can calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a one side test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(Z>1.620)=0.105$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the two proportions are not statistically different at 5% of significance

Angle 1 and angle 2 are vertical angles. If m angle 1 = (8x+12)° and m angle 2 = (3x+37)° find the measure for each angle.

laila [671]

Vertically opposite angles are always equal.

Given angles are (8x+12)° and (3x+37)°

=> (8x+12)° = (3x + 37)°

=> 8x - 3x = 37-12

=> 5x = 25

=> x = 25/5 = 5°

Angle 1 = (8x+12)° = (8(5)+12) = 40+12 = 52°

Angle 2 = (3x + 37)° = (3(5)+37)° = 15+37 = 52°

The probability of randomly selecting a name starting with the letter T from a bowl of 24 names is . Which of the following desc

lara31 [8.8K]

The probability of randomly selecting a name starting with the letter T from bowl of 24 names depends on the names that are in the bowl,. The number 24 says nothing about the names. There can be neither probability that the randomly selected name starts with T, if in the bowl none of the 24 names starts with T.
It could be also unlikely to select a name starting with T if there is a really small number of names in the bowl starting with T (for example 1 or 2 from 24). And it can be likely to chose a name that start with T if there are many names in the bowl starting with T.So, it is important to know the number of names in the bowl starting with T.
