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)

Hair colors are an example of which type of data?
kotykmax [81]

Answer:

Nominal data are used to label variables without any quantitative value. Common examples include male/female (albeit somewhat outdated), hair color, nationalities, names of people, and so on. In plain English: basically, they're labels (and nominal comes from "name" to help you remember). You have brown hair (or brown eyes).

Find the coefficient of correlation between and X and Y if covariance between X and Y is 15 and the variance of X and Y are resp
IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

0.95

Step-by-step explanation:

Correlation \ coefficient \   (r) = \dfrac{covaraince \  between \ X \ and \ Y }{SD_X \times SD_Y }

Correlation \ coefficient \   (r) = \dfrac{15 }{10^{1/2} \times 25^{1/2} }

Correlation \ coefficient \   (r) = \dfrac{15 }{3.162 \times 5 }

Correlation \ coefficient \   (r) = \dfrac{15 }{15.81 }

Correlation \ coefficient \   (r) \simeq 0.95

Describe the transformation in the figure below
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

A) Reflection.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure shown, we can see that the blue triangle is flipped about the x-axis to form the red triangle.

When an object is flipped about a line, then this transformation is called reflection about that line.

Thus, we can say that reflection is taking place in the figure shown in which the x-axis is acting like a mirror. The blue triangle is the pre-image and the red triangle is the image after reflection.

The reflection about x-axis is given by:

Pre-image(x,y)\rightarrow Image(x,-y)

We can check the co-ordinates of the triangles and confirm the the transformation occurring

Points of pre-image triangle:

(0,2),(4,5),(6,2)

Points of image triangle

(0,-2),(4,-5),(6,-2)

Thus, the transformation is reflection.

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️First, solve for r:

r/2 ≤ 3

Multiply both sides by 2

r/2 × 2 ≤ 3 × 2

r ≤ 6

This implies that possible value of r is equal to 6 or less than 6.

Graphing this on a number line, the line with a shaded circle, indicating that 6 is included, starts at 6 and points to the left.

This indicates that value of r ranges from 6 and below.

The graph is C.
