Note that both have the same amount and the same variable, "x"

Combine the two terms. Subtract

8x - x = 7x

7x is your answer

An insurance company states that it settles 85% of all life insurance claims within 30 days. A consumer group asks the state ins
BlackZzzverrR [31]

Using the z-distribution, it is found that since the p-value of the test is less than 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis and find that there is enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion of all life insurance claims made to this company that are settled within 30 days is less than 85%.

<h3>What are the hypothesis tested?</h3>

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is not enough evidence that the proportion is below 85%, that is:

H_0: p \geq 0.85

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is enough evidence that the proportion is below 85%, that is:

H_0: p < 0.85

<h3>What is the test statistic?</h3>

The test statistic is given by:

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

In which:

  • \overline{p} is the sample proportion.
  • p is the proportion tested at the null hypothesis.
  • n is the sample size.

For this problem, the parameters are:

p = 0.85, n = 250, \overline{p} = \frac{203}{250} = 0.812

Hence the test statistic is:

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

z = \frac{0.812 - 0.85}{\sqrt{\frac{0.85(0.15)}{250}}}

z = -1.68

<h3>What is the p-value and the conclusion</h3>

Using a z-distribution calculator, with a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the proportion is less than a value, and z = -1.68, the p-value is of 0.0465.

Since the p-value of the test is less than 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis and find that there is enough evidence to conclude that the true proportion of all life insurance claims made to this company that are settled within 30 days is less than 85%.

Please help me. X/6 ≥ 7. I also need to know how this would be graphed thank you.
BigorU [14]

Answer: The inequality solves to x ≥ 42

The graph is shown below

==================================================

Explanation:

We have some unknown number x, and we're dividing by 6 to form the fraction x/6. That result is 7 or larger which means we write x/6 ≥ 7

To solve for x, we undo the division. We'll multiply both sides by 6. That's how we get to x ≥ 42

The graph will involve a number line. Plot a closed filled in circle at 42 on the number line. Shade to the right. This visually represents any number that is 42 or larger. The endpoint 42 itself is included in the solution set.

Side note: We would use an open circle if we didn't have the "or equal to" portion for the inequality sign.

A researcher reports a 98% confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be [0.34,
Fantom [35]

Answer:

0.34 \leq p \leq 0.38

For this case we can conclude that with 98% of confidence the true proportion of Drosophila in a population would be between 0.34 and 0.38.

But that doesn't means that we have 98% of PROBABILITY that the true proportion would be between 0.34 and 0.38, because we are constructing a confidence interval with sample data and we can't analyze this using probability.

Then the best answer is:

2. False

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we have a confidence interval for the proportion of Drosophila in a population with mutation Adh-F to be given by:

0.34 \leq p \leq 0.38

For this case we can conclude that with 98% of confidence the true proportion of Drosophila in a population would be between 0.34 and 0.38.

But that doesn't means that we have 98% of PROBABILITY that the true proportion would be between 0.34 and 0.38, because we are constructing a confidence interval with sample data and we can't analyze this using probability.

Then the best answer is:

2. False
