myrzilka [38]

Answer:

C.1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Initially the box has four $1 and six $5 bills. The probability of selecting a $5 bill in the first trial would be given as;

(number of $5 bills) / (total number of bills)

= (6)/(4+6) = 3/5

If in the first attempt we actually pick a $5 bill, the number of $5 bills will reduce by one to 5. Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the second attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (5)/(4+5) = 5/9

The new number of $5 bills will now be; 6 - 2 = 4 since we have already picked 2 without replacing them.

Now, the probability of picking a $5 bill in the third attempt will be given as;

(new number of $5 bills) / (new total number of bills)

= (4)/(4+4) = 1/2

Since the three attempts are independent, the probability of picking all three $5 bills is;

3/5 * 5/9 * 1/2 = 1/6

A study by the National Athletic Trainers Association surveyed random samples of 1679 high school freshmen and 1366 high school

nekit [7.7K]

Answer:

We conclude that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a study by the National Athletic Trainers Association surveyed random samples of 1679 high school freshmen and 1366 high school seniors in Illinois.

Results showed that 34 of the freshmen and 24 of the seniors had used anabolic steroids.

Let $p_1$ = proportion of Illinois high school freshmen who have used anabolic steroids.

$p_2$ = proportion of Illinois high school seniors who have used anabolic steroids.

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1=p_2$ {means that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1\neq p_2$ {means that there is a significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z test for proportions;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of high school freshmen who have used anabolic steroids = $\frac{34}{1679}$ = 0.0203

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of high school seniors who have used anabolic steroids = $\frac{24}{1366}$ = 0.0176

$n_1$ = sample of high school freshmen = 1679

$n_2$ = sample of high school seniors = 1366

So, the test statistics = $\frac{(0.0203-0.0176)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.0203(1-0.0203)}{1679}+\frac{0.0176(1-0.0176)}{1366} } }$

= 0.545

The value of z test statistics is 0.545.

Since, in the question we are not given with the level of significance so we assume it to be 5%. Now, at 5% significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.

Since our test statistic lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that there is no significant difference in the proportion of all Illinois high school freshmen and seniors who have used anabolic steroids.

An architect planned to construct two similar stone pyramid structures in a park. The

kondaur [170]

Answer:

1) Change the length of side AB to 2 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that both structures are similar, it follows that the ratio of their corresponding lengths are equal.

To find out what should be the correct length of AB that she should change to, set up the proportion showing the ratio of 2 corresponding lengths of both structures. Thus:

$\frac{PR}{AC} = \frac{PQ}{AB}$
