A survey was conducted in the United Kingdom, where respondents were asked if they had a university degree. One question asked,

katovenus [111]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.121-0.0892}{\sqrt{0.101(1-0.101)(\frac{1}{373}+\frac{1}{639})}}=1.620$

$p_v =2*P(Z>1.620)=0.105$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the two proportions are not statistically different at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$X_{1}=45$ represent the number of correct answers for university degree holders

$X_{2}=57$ represent the number of correct answers for university non-degree holders

$n_{1}=373$ sample 1 selected

$n_{2}=639$ sample 2 selected

$p_{1}=\frac{45}{373}=0.121$ represent the proportion of correct answers for university degree holders

$p_{2}=\frac{57}{639}=0.0892$ represent the proportion of correct answers for university non-degree holders

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportions are different between the two groups, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p_{1} = p_{2}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{1} \neq p_{2}$

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{p_{1}-p_{2}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{1}}+\frac{1}{n_{2}})}}$ (1)

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{1}+X_{2}}{n_{1}+n_{2}}=\frac{45+57}{373+639}=0.101$

Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:

$z=\frac{0.121-0.0892}{\sqrt{0.101(1-0.101)(\frac{1}{373}+\frac{1}{639})}}=1.620$

Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided $\alpha$ , but we can calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a one side test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(Z>1.620)=0.105$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the two proportions are not statistically different at 5% of significance

The first three terms of a sequence are given. Round to the nearest thousandth (if

tangare [24]

The 7th term of the sequence to the nearest thousandth is 223.949

<h3>What are geometric sequences?</h3>

These are sequence that increases in an exponential form.

The formula for calculating the nth term of a geometric sequence is expressed as:

Tn = ar^n-1

Given the following parameters

a = 75

r = 1.2

n = 7

Substitute the given parameter into the formula

T7 = 75(1.2)^6
T7 = 223.949

Hence the 7th term of the sequence to the nearest thousandth is 223.949

Add then divide. Evaluate (7.3 X 10) + (2.4 X 107) (4 X 104)

Deffense [45]

Answer:

6.0 x 10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

(7.3 X 10) + (2.4 X 10^7)

(4 X 10^4)

= 73 + 24000000

40000

= 24000073

40000

= 6.0 x 10^2

PLEASE HELP I WILL MARK YOU BRAINIEST PLEASE

cupoosta [38]

Answer:

Zeniab makes the most money by $0.25, and would make $2.50 more.

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, the good news is, this problem is about finding how much you make in an hour.

Zainab makes $44 for 8 hours

and

Keziah makes $47.25 in 9 hours.

in each problem, we can set them up in an equation of

$44=8x

and

$47.25=9x

In the first equation, divide both sides by 8 to isolate the x.

that would be 44/8 = x which is $5.50 per hour for Zainab.

In the second equation, divide both sides by 9 to isolate the x.

That would be 47.25/9 = x which is $5.25 per hour for Keziah.

This means that Zainab would make more per hour, and to find the second part of the question for a 10 hour job,

(You can multiply any number by 10 easily by moving each number up one place. Hundreds go to the thousands when you multiply by 10 as an example. In this problem, 5.50 times 10 would be $55.00 because the 5 behind the decimal would be moved up infront of the decimal)

Zainab would make $55 for 10 hours

Keziah would make $52.50 for 10 hours

Then, take the difference of those final totals, which is $2.50, or multiply $0.25 by 10 to get $2.50
