In a Pew Research Center poll of 745 randomly selected adults, 589 said that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax

returns. Use a 0.01 significance level to test the claim that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns.a. What is the null and alternative hypothesis?b. What is the test statistic?c. What is the P-value?d. What is the Conclusion?

Answer:

a

 

   The  null hypothesis is  H_o  :  p =  0.75

  The  alternative  hypothesis is  H_a  :  p \ne  0.75

b

   t = 2.51

c

   p-value  =  0.01207

d

 There no sufficient evidence to conclude that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample  size is  n  =  745

     The  number that said it is morally wrong is  k  =  589

       The  level of significance is  \alpha =  0.01

        The population proportion is p  =  0.75

Generally the sample  proportion is mathematically represented as

        \r p  =  \frac{k}{n}

=>     \r p  =  \frac{589}{745}

=>     \r p  =  0.79

 The  null hypothesis is  H_o  :  p =  0.75

  The  alternative  hypothesis is  H_a  :  p \ne  0.75

The  standard error is mathematically represented as

     SE =  \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n} }

=>    SE =  \sqrt{\frac{0.75(1-0.75)}{745} }

=>    SE  =0.0159

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

      t =  \frac{\r p - p }{SE}

=>   t =  \frac{0.79 - 0.75 }{0.0159}

=>    t = 2.51

Generally the p-value is  mathematically represented as

        p-value  =  2 * P(Z >  2.51)

From the the z-table  

            P(Z >  2.51) = 0.0060366

=>   p-value  =  2 * 0.0060366

=>   p-value  =  0.01207

From the calculation  p-value >\alpha

    Hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Thus there no sufficient evidence to conclude that 75% of adults say that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns

How do you write and equation of a linear function using two points
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference between the 2 points.

For example, (8, 9) (5, 3).

Compare the difference between the x's, in this case 8 and 5. The difference is 3. Do the same with the y's, 9 and 3. The difference is 6.

To find the slope, it's y/x. The slope in this situation is 6/3. Simplify. The slope is 2.

To find the y-intercept, insert the slope and one of the 2 points in the beginning into y = mx + b & solve for b.

For example, if we use the ordered pair (5, 3) the equation would look like:

3 = 2(5) + b, Solve for b.

Multiply. 3 = 10 + b

Get b by itself by adding - 10 to both sides.

-7 = b

The y-intercept is -7. So, in this case, the equation is y = 2x - 7.

I NEED HELP PLSSSSSSSS
AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

X >>>>> Y

–1 >>>> 16

0 >>>>> 8

1 >>>>> 4

2 >>>>> 2

3 >>>>> 1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above,

y = 8 × (½)ˣ

When x = –1, y =?

y = 8 × (½)ˣ

y = 8 × (½)¯¹

y = 8 × 2

y = 16

When x = 1, y =?

y = 8 × (½)ˣ

y = 8 × (½)¹

y = 8 × ½

y = 4

When x = 2, y =?

y = 8 × (½)ˣ

y = 8 × (½)²

y = 8 × ¼

y = 2

When x = 3, y =?

y = 8 × (½)ˣ

y = 8 × (½)³

y = 8 × ⅛

y = 1

SUMMARY:

X >>>>> Y

–1 >>>> 16

0 >>>>> 8

1 >>>>> 4

2 >>>>> 2

3 >>>>> 1
