An education firm measures the high school dropout rate as the percentage of 16 to 24 year olds who are not enrolled in school a

nd have not yet earned a high school credential. One year, the high school dropout rate was 6.1%. The next year a polling company took a survey of 1000 people between the ages of 16 and 24 and found that 56 of them are high school dropouts. The polling company would like to determine whether the dropout rate has decreased. The value of the test statistic is

Answer:

The value of the test statistic z = -0.6606

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

      The high dropout rate is \mu  = 6.1%  = 0.061

      The  sample size is  n = 1000

       The  number of dropouts x = 56

       The probability of having a dropout in 1000 people  \= x  = \frac{56}{1000}  =  0.056

Now setting up Test Hypothesis

 Null  H_o :  p = 0.061

 Alternative  H_a : p < 0.061        

The Test statistics is mathematically represented as

                 z = \frac{\= x - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1 -p)}{n} } }

substituting values

               z = \frac{0.056 - 0.061}{\sqrt{\frac{0.061(1 -0.061)}{1000} } }

               z = -0.6606

How do I simplify 1/-5z^-5?
belka [17]
\bf \cfrac{1}{-5z^{-5}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------\\\\&#10;a^{-{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\qquad \qquad&#10;\cfrac{1}{a^{ n}}\implies a^{-{ n}}&#10;\\ \quad \\&#10;%  negative exponential denominator&#10;a^{{ n}} \implies \cfrac{1}{a^{- n}}&#10;\qquad \qquad &#10;\cfrac{1}{a^{- n}}\implies \cfrac{1}{\frac{1}{a^{ n}}}\implies a^{{ n}} \\\\&#10;-------------------------\\\\&#10;thus&#10;

\bf -\cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{1}{z^{-5}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{1}{\frac{1}{z^5}}\implies -\cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{\frac{1}{1}}{\frac{1}{z^5}}\implies -&#10;\cfrac{1}{5}\cdot \cfrac{1}{1}\cdot \cfrac{z^5}{1}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;-\cfrac{z^5}{5}

Write an equation in slop intercept form (y=mx+b) for the line that has a slope (m) of 12 and passes though the point (3,20)
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

y=12x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope intercept form, we know the m(slope) but we need to find b.

y and x is given to us, so we can find b.

Plug in the numbers provided into the slope intercept form.

y=mx+b

20=(12)(2)+b

20=24+b

To find b, we have to get b by itself. So, we subtract both sides by 24.

-4=b

Now that we found b, we can plug this into the equation.

y=12x-4
