How to know when to use which probability distribution?

worty [1.4K]

57% of students studied, which decomposes into 52% who both studied and saw an increase in their exam grade 5% who both studied and did Not see an increase in their exam grade The percentages above are relative to the whole population of 100 students, to get the requested probability, recall that: One way to find out the probability of an event is to Take the ratio of the number of times the event happened, over the total number of times the event could have happened. Total number of times the event happened: 52 = 52% of 100 students studied and saw an increase in their exam grade Total number of times the event could have happened: 57 = 57% of 100 students studied

Ok so it's a proportion so this fraction is to this fraction. the smaller rectangle has sides 4 and 12. the larger one has 8 and x. so u set it up 4/12=8/x. the 4 and 8 r both the short sides so u want those on top and 12 and x r long sides so those on bottom. since that is not an answer option u can set it up as 8/4=x/12 because u still keep the variables of the same rectangle from being multipled with each other. so answer #2 is correct

Suppose that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 28% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage

Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

We conclude that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a random selection of 100 colored candies, 28% of them are blue. The candy company claims that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.

Let p = population percentage of blue candies

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 29% {means that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 29% {means that the percentage of blue candies is different from 29%}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z-test for proportions;

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

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of blue coloured candies = 28%

n = sample of colored candies = 100

So, the test statistics = $\frac{0.28-0.29}{\sqrt{\frac{0.29(1-0.29)}{100} } }$

= -0.22

The value of the z-test statistics is -0.22.

Also, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

P-value = P(Z < -0.22) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 0.22)

= 1 - 0.5871 = 0.4129

Now, at a 0.10 level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of -1.645 and 1.645 for the two-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics lies within the range of critical values of z, so we insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the percentage of blue candies is equal to 29%.
