Answer:

We conclude that 80% of patients stop smoking when given sustained care.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a program designed to help patients stop smoking. 192 patients were given to sustained care, and 80.2% of them were no longer smoking after one month.

Let p = <u><em>percentage of patients stop smoking when given sustained care.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p = 80%     {means that 80% of patients stop smoking when given sustained care}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p \neq 80%     {means that different from 80% of patients stop smoking when given sustained care}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample z test for proportions</u>;

                        T.S. =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p = sample proportion of patients who stop smoking when given sustained care = 80.2%

           n = sample of patients = 192

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{0.802-0.80}{\sqrt{\frac{0.802(1-0.802)}{192} } }

                                     =  0.07

The value of z test statistics is 0.07.

<u></u>

<u>Also, P-value of the test statistics is given by the following formula;</u>

                P-value = P(Z > 0.07) = 1 - P(Z \leq 0.07)

                              = 1 - 0.52790 = 0.4721

<u>Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical values of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we fail to reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that 80% of patients stop smoking when given sustained care.

Oliver climbed 222 meters of a steep mountain reach the summit. He then rappelled down the other side of the mountain to return
nikdorinn [45]
B -222

Because he fell/descended 222 meters. And falling or going down produces a negative integer. Also, if you were actually doing the math to try to find where Oliver is currently located, you wouldn't add 222, or 0, or subtract -444. You would subtract 222. 

In addition, be aware that the question is asking you an integer to represent a situation, not the answer of where Oliver is.

The relation between pressure and volume is given as
v = 18000/p
where
v = volume, in³
p = pressure, lb/in²

When the pressure is p = 900 lb/in², then the volume is
v = 18000/900 = 20 in³

Answer: 20 in³
