Width = W
Length = 12W - 1
Perimeter = 2L + 2W = 37

In the perimeter equation substitute the length equation in for L to get the equation in terms of W
2L + 2W = 37
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37

Distribute
2(12W - 1) + 2w = 37
24W - 2 + 2w = 37
26W = 39
W = 3/2 = 1.5
Width = 1.5

Lastly, solve for length
L = 12W - 1
L = (12 • 1.5) - 1
L = 18 - 1
L = 17
Length = 17

A sample of 114 mortgages approved during the current year showed that 36 were issued to a single-earner family or individual. T
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

a-1) Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

a-2) z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

a-3) ii. False

b) ii. No

c) iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=114 represent the random sample taken

X=36 represent the people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

\hat p=\frac{36}{114}=0.316 estimated proportion of people that were issued to a single-earner family or individual

p_o=0.28 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)  

(a-1) H0: π ≤ .28 versus H1: π > .28. Choose the right option. Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645 Reject H0 if zcalc < 1.645 a b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is less than 0.28.:  

Null hypothesis:p\geq 0.28  

Alternative hypothesis:p < 0.28  

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.

The rejection zone would be on this case :

Reject H0 if zcalc > 1.645

Since is a right tailed test

(a-2) Calculate the test statistic. (Round intermediate calculations to 2 decimal places. Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) Test statistic

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

z=\frac{0.316 -0.28}{\sqrt{\frac{0.28(1-0.28)}{114}}}=0.8561  

(a-3) The null hypothesis should be rejected.

False, since our calculated value is less than our critical value we Fails to reject the null hypothesis

(b) Is this a close decision?

False the calculated value is significantly less than the critical value so we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis with enough confidence.

(c) State any assumptions that are required.

In order to satisfy the conditions we need the following two requirements:

iii. n π > 10 and n(1 − π ) > 10

And are satisfied:

114*0.28=31.92>10

114(1-0.28)=82,08>10

Complete parts (a) and (b) using the probability distribution below.
katen-ka-za [31]
Μ = (0×0.026) + (1×0.072) +(2×0.152) + (3×0.303) + (4×0.215) + (5×0.164) + (6×0.066) 
μ = 0 + 0.072 + 0.304 + 0.909 + 0.86 + 0.82 + 0.396
μ = 3.361 ≈ 3.4

We need the value of ∑X² to work out the variance
∑X² = (0²×0.026) + (1²×0.072) + (2²×0.152) + (3²×0.303) + (4²×0.215) + (5²×0.164) + (6²×0.066)
∑X² = 0+0.072+0.608+2.727+3.44+4.1+2.376
∑X² = 13.323

Variance = ∑X² - μ²
Variance  = 13.323 - (3.4)² = 1.763 ≈ 2

Standard Deviation = √Variance = √1.8 = 1.3416... ≈ 1.4

The correct answer related to the value of mean and standard deviation is the option D

Tina is saving to buy a notebook computer. She has two options. The first option is to put $500 away initially and save $10 ever
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Tina would save the same amount using either option after 20 months.

With either option, Tina would save $700.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be modeled by a first order equation:

Where Tina's saved money after n months is:

S(n) = S(0) + rn, where S(0) is the money put away initially and r is how much she saves every month.

The first option is to put $500 away initially and save $10 every month, so:

S_{1}(n) = 500 + 10n

The second option is to put $100 away initially and save $30 every month, so:

S_{2}(n) = 100 + 30n

After how many months would Tina save the same amount using either option?

It will happen at the month n in which S_{1}(n) = S_{2}(n), so:

S_{1}(n) = S_{2}(n)

500 + 10n = 100 + 30n

500 - 100 = 30 - 10n

400 = 20n

20n = 400

n = \frac{400}{20}

n = 20.

Tina would save the same amount using either option after 20 months.

How much would she save with either option?

We can choose S_{1}(20) or S_{2}(20), since they are equal

S_{1}(20) = 500 + 10(20) = 500 + 200 = 700

With either option, Tina would save $700.
