A researcher is interested in determining if the more than two thirds of students would support making the Tuesday before Thanks

giving a holiday. The researcher asks 1,000 random selected students if they would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday. Seven hundred students said that they would support the extra holiday.
Define the parameter.

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

b. phat = the sample proportion of 700 UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

c. phat = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

d. p = the population proportion of 700 UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

Answer:

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they are in favor of making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday, or they are against. This means that we can solve this problem using concepts of the binomial probability distribution.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}

In which C_{n,x} is the number of different combinatios of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}

And p is the probability of X happening.

So, the binomial probability distribution has two parameters, n and p.

In this problem, we have that n = 1000 and p = \frac{700}{1000} = 0.7. So the parameter is

a. p = the population proportion of UF students who would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving break a holiday.

17x - y &lt; 13<br> I’m slope-intercept form
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

y > 17x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to write the inequality in slope-intercept form

The general slope intercept form is;

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

So what we have to do to the inequality is to make y the subject

Thus, we have that;

17x -13 < y

Flipping this, we have

y > 17x-13

Answer:the answer is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

2(4y-1)=6

Divid by 2 on both sides

4y-1=3

Add 1 to both sides

4y=4

Divid both sides by 4

Y=0

Cos ■ = 7/14<br>A. 39°<br>B. 30° <br>C. 26.57°<br>D. 60°​
dolphi86 [110]

Option D:

$\cos60^\circ=\frac{7}{14}

Solution:

Given data:

$\cos -- = \frac{7}{14}

Let the unknown degree be x.

To find the degree x:

$\cos x = \frac{7}{14}

Cancel the common factor 7 in the numerator and denominator.

$\cos x = \frac{1}{2}

Using trigonometry basic formula,

we know that \cos60^\circ = \frac{1}{2}.

So, x = 60°.

The unknown degree measure is 60°.

$\cos 60^\circ= \frac{7}{14}

Hence option D is the correct answer.

What is x=? I got part a but what does x=?
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

I think x = 44°

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the exterior angle:

180° - 45° = 135°

We know that x is multiplied by 3 (3x) so we divide 135 by 3.

135° / 3 = 45°

We know that we have to add 3° to the product of 3x, so we know the product of 3x will be less than 135°. The product should be 135° after 3° is added to it.

Trying a few possible answers:

43° × 3 = 129°

129° + 3° = 132°

That one wasn't quite right.

44° × 3 = 132°

132° + 3° = 135°

:D
