Answer:

A. 90

B. Soccer ball = 30

Basketball = 30

Football = 15

Kickball = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let whole students be 1

Only 15 students are known to order kickball. So the fraction of the number becomes :

1 - ( \frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{3}  +  \frac{1}{6} ) \\ 1 -  \frac{5}{6}  =  \frac{1}{6}

So the fraction of students that ordered kick balls is 1/6

Since 1/3 = 2(1/6):

30 students ordered for soccerballs

30 students ordered for basketballs

15 students ordered for footballs and

15 students ordered for kick balls.

Altogether, a total of 90 students were asked

Travka [436]

Answer:

0.001

Step-by-step explanation:

Ericsson is claimed to increase the likelihood of a baby girl ;

Given the alternative hypothesis to buttress this claim :

HA : p>0.5

In other to establish the success of Ericsson's claim, then there must be significant evidence to reject the Null hypothesis ; hence adopt the alternative.

To Do this, we need a very small Pvalue ; such that it will be lesser than the α - value in other to reject the Null and adopt the alternative.

Recall ;

Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Therefore, from the options, we choose the smallest Pvalue as we want the Pvalue to be as small as possible.
