The circumference of ruby's old swimming pool is 47.1 feet. Her new swimming pool has a diameter of 21 feet. How much larger is
1 answer:
The new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Given:
Circumference of the pool = 47.1 feet
Diameter of the new pool, d = 21 feet
radius, r = 21/2 feet
Circumference of the new pool = ?
We know:
Circumference = 2πr
where,
r is the radius
On substituting the value:
C =
C = 65.94 feet
The difference in circumference of the two pools = 65.94 - 47.1 feet
= 18.84 feet
Therefore, the new pool is 18.84 feet larger in circumference than the old one.

Answer:
z statistic is -2.26
This is less than our alpha level,therefore we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportion of homeowners between first generation and second generation Hispanic Americans
Step-by-step explanation:
From the attached table, we can see that;
first-generation hispanic americans; (N = 899 and percentage = 43%
second-generation hispanic americans; N = 351 and percentage = 50%
first-generation asian americans; (N = 2,684 and percentage = 58%
second-generation asian americans; N = 566 and percentage = 51%
Z-score formula in this case is;
z = (p1^ - p2^)/(√(p^(1 - p^)((1/n1) + (1/n2))
Where;
p^ = (p1 + p2)/(n1 + n2)
For, hispanic americans we have;
p1^ = 0.43 × 899 = 386.57
p2^ = 0.5 × 351 = 175.5
p^ = (386.57 + 175.5)/(899 + 351)
p^ = 0.45
Thus;
z = (0.43 - 0.5)/(√(0.45(1 - 0.45)((1/899) + (1/351))
z = -2.26
From z-distribution table, we have;
P-value = 0.01191
Since we have 2 samples, then probability = 2 × 0.01191 = 0.02382
This is less than our alpha level of 0.05,therefore we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is a significant difference in the proportion of homeowners between first generation and second generation Hispanic Americans.
