<em><u>Speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph</u></em>

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Skyler is 104 miles away from Marcus

Therefore,

Distance = 104 miles

They meet after 4 hours

Time taken = 4 hours

Let "x" be the speed of sklyer

Marcus travels 8 mph faster than skyler

Therefore,

Speed of marcus = 8 + x

They are traveling towards each other

Since they are traveling towards each other, we can add up their speeds

Speed = x + 8 + x = 2x + 8

<em><u>The distance is given by formula:</u></em>

distance = \frac{speed}{time\ taken}\\\\104 = \frac{8+2x}{4}\\\\104 \times 4 = 8 + 2x\\\\8 + 2x = 416\\\\2x = 416-8\\\\2x = 408\\\\x = 204

Thus speed of skyler = x = 204 mph

Speed of marcus = 8 + x = 8 + 204 = 212 mph

Thus speed of skyler is 204 mph and speed of marcus is 212 mph

A study by Consumer Reports showed that 64% of supermarket shoppers believesupermarket brands to be as good as national brands.
Elina [12.6K]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.614 -0.64}{\sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{145}}}=-0.652  

The p value would be given by:

p_v =P(z  

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 significantly less than 0.64 at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=145 represent the random sample taken

X=89 represent the number  of people who believed the supermarket brand was as good as the national brand

\hat p=\frac{89}{145}=0.614 estimated proportion of people who believed the supermarket brand was as good as the national brand

p_o=0.64 is the value 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 less than 0.64, the system of hypothesis are.:  

Null hypothesis:p \geq 0.64  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.64  

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{0.614 -0.64}{\sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{145}}}=-0.652  

The p value would be given by:

p_v =P(z  

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 significantly less than 0.64 at 5% of significance
