Answer:

P-value of test statistics = 0.9773

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a publisher reports that 49% of their readers own a personal computer. A random sample of 200 found that 42% of the readers owned a personal computer.

And, a marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage, i.e;

Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p = 0.49 {means that the percentage of readers who own a personal computer is same as reported 63%}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_1 : p \neq 0.49 {means that the percentage of readers who own a personal computer is different from the reported 63%}

The test statistics we will use here is;

                T.S. = \frac{\hat p -p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1- \hat p)}{n} } } ~ N(0,1)

where, p = actual % of readers who own a personal computer = 0.49

            \hat p = percentage of readers who own a personal computer in a

                  sample of 200 = 0.42

            n = sample size = 200

So, Test statistics = \frac{0.42 -0.49}{\sqrt{\frac{0.42(1- 0.42)}{200} } }

                             = -2.00

Now, P-value of test statistics is given by = P(Z > -2.00) = P(Z < 2.00)

                                                                        = 0.9773 .

Anettt [7]
<span>The was a 30% decrease in area. You started with 40 sq ft and ended up with 28 sq ft. So you lost 40 - 28 = 12 sq ft. Now you need to figure out what percentage of 40 is 12. For that you just simply divide 12 / 40 = 0.30 And to convert 0.30 from a decimal to a percentage, just multiply by 100. 0.30 * 100 = 30%</span>

a six sided number cube has faces with the numbers 1 through 6 marked on them. what is the probability that a number less than 2
iris [78.8K]

Solution:

we are given that

A six sided number cube has faces with the numbers 1 through 6 marked on them.

we have been asked to find the probability that a number less than 2 will occur on one toss of the number cube.

Since a number less than 2 is only one and that is "1" and total number of possible outcome is 6.

and as we know that probability is given using the formula

P(E)= \frac{n(E)}{n(S)}\\ \\

Substitute the values we get

P(E)= \frac{1}{6}

Hence the required probability is 1/6.

Please help, math question.
Veseljchak [2.6K]
Part a) 
Identify the variable and categories


By reading the above statement, we can find that there are two variables and each variable has 2 categories. The variables and their categories are:
1) Class Number
This variable is further divided into 2 categories i.e. Class 9th and Class 10th.

2) Participation in Extracurricular activities
This variable is further divided into 2 categories based on if students participated or not.

Part b)
Set up and fill 2 way table.

Since, we have 2 variables and each variable has 2 categories the number of data cells will be 2 x 2 = 4 cells

There are total 100 students. 40 students are in class 10th. This means 60 students are in class 9th.Out of 40 students in class 10th, 18 students participate in at least one extracurricular activity. So remaining 22 students do not participate. 32 students from class 9th participate in extracurricular activities, this means the remaining 28 students do not participate. Based on this data, we can fill up the table as shown below
