Answer:

z=\frac{0.0973 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{298}}}=-0.155  

p_v =2*P(Z  

And we can use excel to find the p value like this: "=2*NORM.DIST(-0.155;0;1;TRUE)"

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is not significantly different from 0.1 .  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=298 represent the random sample taken

X=29 represent the events claimed

\hat p=\frac{29}{298}=0.0973 estimated proportion

p_o=0.1 is the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion is 0.1 or no.:  

Null hypothesis:p=0.1  

Alternative hypothesis:p \neq 0.1  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.0973 -0.1}{\sqrt{\frac{0.1(1-0.1)}{298}}}=-0.155  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(Z  

And we can use excel to find the p value like this: "=2*NORM.DIST(-0.155;0;1;TRUE)"

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given \alpha=0.05 we have p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of interest is not significantly different from 0.1 .  

We can do the test also in R with the following code:

> prop.test(29,298,p=0.1,alternative = c("two.sided"),conf.level = 1-0.05,correct = FALSE)

Find an equation of the circle and sketch it if it has: Center on y=4, tangent x-axis at (–2, 0)
Digiron [165]

Answer:

(x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16

OK, lets start by drawing a basic graph (the first one) so we can visualize.

We already know that the y coordinate of the circle's center is 4.

We know that the circle is tangent to the X axis at (-2,0)

That means the x coordinate of the center has to be -2, as the tangent is a point on the edge of the circle that touches a line at exactly one point.

The radius is the distance from the center of the circle to its edge. We know the center's location now, it is (-2, 4) and a point on the edge of the circle (the tangent point) which is (-2,0). so the distance between the points is 4 which is the radius (you can use the distance formula, but it's quite oblivious.)

We can imagine the circle should look like this (the second one):

Now we can piece together an equation

The equation of a circle is (x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2 where (h,k) is the center and r is the radius. When we put the numbers in: we get (x-(-2))^2+(y-(4))^2=4^2 which can be simplified into (x+2)^2+(y-4)^2=16 which is the answer.

Y = 100 (1- 1/2) ^t<br><br> decay or growth
charle [14.2K]

Answer:

Decay

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an equation y=100(1-0.5)^t

We need to say about decay or growth of exponential function.

Exponential function: y=a\cdot b^x

Where,

  • a is initial value of exponential function.
  • b is decay or growth of function

For decay: 0<b<1

For growth: b>1

Now we rewrite the equation into this form

y=100(1-0.5)^t

Changes to

y=100(0.5)^t

Here, b=0.5 < 1

Therefore, The given function would be decay.

Thus, y=100(1-0.5)^t is deacy.

Yolanda (y) read five more books than Richard (d), and Richard read two more books than Ronnie (r). Which equations express this
NemiM [27]
Your answer is B.
She read 5 more than Richard, so D + 5.
& since Ronnie read 2 more than Richard, that’d be 5+2 = 7 to show how much more he read than Yolanda!
