8 0

Answer:

10 units

Step-by-step explanation:

$\boxed{distance = \sqrt{(x2 - x1)^{2} + (y2 - y1)^{2} }}$

Using the distance formula above,

distance between the 2 points

$= \sqrt{[0 - ( - 8)]^{2} + (7 - 1)^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{(0 + 8)^{2} + 6^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {8}^{2} + 36} \\ = \sqrt{64 + 36} \\ = \sqrt{100} \\ = 10 \: units$

An opinion poll asks a simple random sample of 100 college seniors how they view their job prospects. In all, 53 say "good." Doe

Answer:

We are tryng to proof if more than half of all seniors think their job prospects are good so that would be the alternative hypothesis and the complement rule would be the null hypothesis.:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n=100 represent the random sample ofcollege senior selected

X=53 represent the college seniors who say good

$\hat p=\frac{53}{100}=0.53$ estimated proportion of seniors who think their job prospects are good

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test

z would represent the statistic

$p_v$ represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We are tryng to proof if more than half of all seniors think their job prospects are good so that would be the alternative hypothesis and the complement rule would be the null hypothesis.:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

The statistic is given by:

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