Oksanka [162]

Answer:

<u>0.765 meters</u> long were the sticks when laid end to end.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Rob laid three sticks end to end. The lengths of the sticks were 45 millimeters, 32 centimeters, and 4 decimeters.

Now, to find the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end.

The lengths of the sticks are:

1st stick - 45 millimeters.

2nd stick - 32 centimeters.

3rd stick - 4 decimeters.

So, we convert the units of sticks into meters by using conversion factor:

1st stick:

1 millimeter = 0.001 meter.

45 millimeters = 0.001 × 45

45 millimeters = 0.045 meter.

2nd stick:

1 centimeter = 0.01 meter.

32 centimeters = 0.01 × 32

32 centimeters = 0.32 meter.

3rd stick:

1 decimeter = 0.1 meter.

4 decimeters = 0.1 × 4

4 decimeters = 0.4 meter.

Now, adding all the three sticks length to get the the length in meters of the sticks when laid end to end:

$0.045+0.32+0.4\\\\=0.765\ meters.$

Therefore, 0.765 meters long were the sticks when laid end to end.

In a random sample of males, it was found that 28 write with their left hands and 210 do not. In a random sample of females, it

Drupady [299]

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \geq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} < p_{W}$

b) $z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271$

c) $p_v =P(Z$

d) If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant lower than the proportion of female that write with their left hand

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$X_{M}=28$ represent the number of men that write with their left hand

$X_{W}=62$ represent the number of women that write with their left hand

$n_{M}=210+28=238$ sample of male selected

$n_{W}=62+435=497$ sample of female selected

$p_{M}=\frac{28}{238}=0.118$ represent the proportion of men that write with their left hand

$p_{W}=\frac{62}{497}=0.125$ represent the proportion of women that write with their left hand

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

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

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the rate of left-handedness among males is less than that among females , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \geq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} < p_{W}$

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

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

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{28+62}{238+497}=0.122$

3) Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{0.118-0.125}{\sqrt{0.122(1-0.122)(\frac{1}{238}+\frac{1}{497})}}=-0.271$

4) Statistical decision

We have a significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ , and now we can calculate the p value for this test.

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

$p_v =P(Z$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05, 0,1,0.15$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men that write with their left hand is NOT significant loer than the proportion of female that write with their left hand .

For adding, subtracting, and comparing fractions, it is suitable to adjust both fractions to a common (equal, identical) denominator. The common denominator you can calculate as the least common multiple of the both denominators - LCM(4, 4) = 4. In practice, it is enough to find the common denominator (not necessarily the lowest) by multiplying the denominators: 4 × 4 = 16. In the next intermediate step , cancel by a common factor of 2 gives 7

Researchers measured the data speeds for a particular smartphone carrier at 50 airports. The highest speed measured was 76.676.6

faltersainse [42]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Researchers measured the data speeds for a particular smartphone carrier at 50 airports.

The highest speed measured was 76.6 Mbps.

n= 50

X[bar]= 17.95

S= 23.39

a. What is the difference between the carrier's highest data speed and the mean of all 50 data speeds?

If the highest speed is 76.6 and the sample mean is 17.95, the difference is 76.6-17.95= 58.65 Mbps

b. How many standard deviations is that [the difference found in part (a)]?

To know how many standard deviations is the max value apart from the sample mean, you have to divide the difference between those two values by the standard deviation

Dif/S= 58.65/23.39= 2.507 ≅ 2.51 Standard deviations

c. Convert the carrier's highest data speed to a z score.

The value is X= 76.6

Using the formula Z= (X - μ)/ δ= (76.6 - 17.95)/ 23.39= 2.51

d. If we consider data speeds that convert to z scores between minus−2 and 2 to be neither significantly low nor significantly high, is the carrier's highest data speed significant?

The Z value corresponding to the highest data speed is 2.51, considerin that is greater than 2 you can assume that it is significant.
