Answer: The number of books she should put on each shelf = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total books = 116

Total shelves = 16

To determine : The number of books she should put on each shelf, we first divides the total number of books by the total shelf.

116\div 16=7\dfrac14

So she can put 7 books in each shelf such that (7x16=) 112 books got placed and (116-112=)4 books left.

Hence, The number of books she should put on each shelf = 7.

Which equation is rewritten in vertex form?
Zinaida [17]
(x + 3)^2 + (x + 4)^2 
= x^2 + 6x + 9 + x^2 + 8x + 16
= 2x^2 + 14x + 25
= 2(x^2 + 7x) + 25
= 2[(x + 7/2)^2  - 49/4] + 25
= 2(x + 7/2)^2 - 98/4 + 25
= 2(x + 7/2)^2 + 1/2

A sample of 114 mortgages approved during the current year showed that 36 were issued to a single-earner family or individual. T
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a-1) Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

a-2) z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

a-3) ii. False

b) ii. No

c) iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=114 represent the random sample taken

X=36 represent the people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

\hat p=\frac{36}{114}=0.316 estimated proportion of people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

p_o=0.28 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)  

(a-1) H0: π ≤ .28 versus H1: π > .28. Choose the right option. Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645 Reject H0 if zcalc < 1.645 a b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is less than 0.28.:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.28  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.28  

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.

The rejection zone would be on this case :

Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

Since is a right tailed test

(a-2) Calculate the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) Test statistic

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

z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

(a-3) The null hypothesis should be rejected.

False, since our calculated value is less than our critical value we Fails to reject the null hypothesis

(b) Is this a close decision?

False the calculated value is significantly less than the critical value so we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis with enough confidence.

(c) State any assumptions that are required.

In order to satisfy the conditions we need the following two requirements:

iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

And are satisfied:

114*0.28=31.92>10

114(1-0.28)=82,08>10

Anna71 [15]

Tank A capacity = 550 gallons       66% x 550 gallons = 363 gallons in Tank A

How about the water in tank B?

ratio of  11: 15      11/15 = 550/x          550 * 15/11 = cap B = 750 gal       53% 0f 750 = .53 x 750 = 397.5 gal in tank B
