A survey in Men’s Health magazine reported that 39% of cardiologists said that they took vitamin E supplements. To see if this i

s still true, a researcher randomly selected 100 cardiologists and found that 36 said that they took vitamin E supplements. At α = 0.05, test the claim that 39% of the cardiologists took vitamin E supplements. A recent study said that taking too much vitamin e might be harmful how might this study make the results of the previous study invalid?

zzz [600]3 years ago

Answer:

z=\frac{0.36 -0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.39(1-0.39)}{100}}}=-0.615  

The p value for this case would be:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not different from 0.39

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=100 represent the random sample taken

X=36 represent the number of people that take E supplement

\hat p=\frac{36}{100}=0.36 estimated proportion of people who take R supplement

p_o=0.39 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true proportion is equatl to 0.39 or not, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.39  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.39  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info we got:

z=\frac{0.36 -0.39}{\sqrt{\frac{0.39(1-0.39)}{100}}}=-0.615  

The p value for this case would be:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion is not different from 0.39

What is the roots of the quadratic equation? 6x^2+5x-4=0
Rama09 [41]

x = \frac{1}{2} or x = - \frac{4}{3}

consider the factors of the product 6 × - 4 = - 24 which sum to the coefficient of the x- term ( + 5)

the factors are + 8 and - 3 ( split the middle term using these factors

6x² - 3x + 8x - 4 = 0 ( factor by grouping )

3x(2x - 1) + 4(2x - 1 ) ( take out common factor of (2x - 1) )

= (2x - 1)(3x + 4) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

2x - 1 = 0 ⇒ x = \frac{1}{2}

3x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - \frac{4}{3}

weeeeeb [17]

Answer: W= 5000+0.07S

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A pharmaceutical salesperson receives a monthly salary of $5000 plus a commission of 7% of sales.

Total wages = Monthly salary + 7% of (Monthly sales)

Let salesperson’s monthly wage be W and monthly sales be S.

Then, W = 5000+(0.07) (S)  [Convert percent into decimal by dividing it by 100]

Or W= 5000+0.07S

Required linear equation: W= 5000+0.07S
