Choose the inequality that represents the following graph

There were 2430 Major League Baseball games played in 2009, and the home team won the game in 53% of the games. If we consider t

Ivahew [28]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.53 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{2430}}}=2.958$

$p_v =P(Z>2.958)=0.0015$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion is significantly higher than 0.5 .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=2430 represent the random sample taken

$\hat p=0.53$ estimated proportion when the home team won the game

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

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion is higher than 0.5 or 50%:

Null hypothesis: $p\leq 0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.5$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.53 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{2430}}}=2.958$

4) Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z>2.958)=0.0015$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion is significantly higher than 0.5 .

A bowling ball has a diameter of 8.5 inches. If it is rolled down a 60 foot bowling lane, how many complete revolutions will it

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

85

Step-by-step explanation:

12 in = 1 ft

first you need to convert 60ft to in:

60 * 12 = 720in

then divide 720(the amount of space you are covering by 8.5

720/8.5 = 84.7

then i guess you can round it to a full revolution so it would be 85

Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program. In how many different ways can Tim choo

Marianna [84]

There are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

Solution:

Given that Tim must read 2 books from a list of 7 recommended books for his summer reading program

To find: different ways can Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended books

This is a combination problem

A combination is a selection of all or part of a set of objects, without regard to the order in which objects are selected

The formula for combinations is:

$n C_{r}=\frac{n !}{r !(n-r) !}$

where n represents the number of items, and r represents the number of items being chosen at a time

Here we have to choose 2 books from 7 books

Therefore, n = 7 and r = 2

Substituting values in above formula, we get

$\begin{aligned}&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 !(7-2) !}\\\\&7 C_{2}=\frac{7 !}{2 ! \times 5 !}\end{aligned}$

For a number n, the factorial of n can be written as,

$n !=n \times(n-1) \times(n-2) \dots \dots \times 2 \times 1$

Therefore, we get

$7 C_{2}=\frac{7 \times 6 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{2 \times 1 \times 5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}\\\\7C_2 = 7 \times 3 = 21$

Thus there are 21 ways Tim choose 2 books from the 7 recommended book

How can you use what you know about square numbers to find the square root of a non-perfect square number

Harrizon [31]

Finding the square root of a number is the inverse operation of squaring that number. Remember, the square of a number is that number times itself. The perfect squares are the squares of the whole numbers. The square root of a number, n, written below is the number that gives n when multiplied by itself.
