The test statistic of zequals2.32 is obtained when testing the claim that pgreater than0.3. a. Identify the hypothesis test as b

Sonja [21]

Answer:

a) We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion p is greatr than 0.3, so then the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.3$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.3$

Right tailed test

b) $p_v =P(z>2.32)=0.0102$

c) So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interest is higher than 0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a: Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion p is greatr than 0.3, so then the system of hypothesis are.:

Null hypothesis: $p \leq 0.3$

Alternative hypothesis: $p > 0.3$

Right tailed test

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, 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 $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

For this case the statistic is given by $z_{calc}= 2.32$

Part b: Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z>2.32)=0.0102$

Part c

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 1% of significance the proportion of interest is higher than 0.3

There are two formulae you can use to calculate the number of apple trees and the number of conifer

Leno4ka [110]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

n = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

"By inspection" is an appropriate method.

We are asked to compare the expressions

n·n

8·n

and find the value(s) of n that makes them equal. By inspection, we see that n=8 will make these expressions equal. We also know that both expressions will be zero when n=0.

__

More formally, we could write ...

n^2 = 8n . . . . the two formulas give the same value

n^2 -8n = 0 . . . . rearrange to standard form

n(n -8) = 0 . . . . . factor

Using the zero product rule, we know the solutions will be the values of n that make the factors zero. Those values are ...

n = 0 . . . . . makes the factor n = 0

n = 8 . . . . . makes the factor (n-8) = 0

Generally, we're not interested in "trivial" solutions (n=0), so the only value of n that is of interest is n = 8.

__

A lot of times, I find a graphing calculator to be a quick and easy way to find function argument values that make expressions equal.

Find the distance between the origin and the points (-8,4)

Papessa [141]

Hi, I'm happy to help!

To solve this, we need to find the distance from the origin to the y coordinate value, x coordinate value, then use the Pythagorean Theorem.

The origin of a graph (center) has the coordinates (0,0), so this will be our other coordinates.

First, let's find the x coordinate distance change. We move from the x coordinate 0, to the x coordinate -8, so we move 8 x units.

Next, let's find the y coordinate distance change. We move from the y coordinate 0, to the y coordinate 4, so we move 4 y units.

Now that we have these two leg lengths, let's imagine this as a right triangle. Moving from the origin, we draw a line from (0,0), to (-8,0). Then, we draw a line from (-8,0) to (-8,4). Now, draw a direct line from (0,0), to (-8,4). We have the length of the first(8) and second(4) lines, and we need to find the third line length to find our answer. To do this, we use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that a²+b²=c². This says that, in a right triangle, the square of the two shorter lengths equals the square of the longest length. The longest length is what we are solving for.

Let's say x distance is a, and y distance is b. Now, apply the values:

8²+4²=c²

64+16=c²

80=c²

Now, we need to find the value of c, so we need to find the square root of 80.

√80=c

8.9442...=c

Since the number goes on forever, we need to round it. For this example, let's round it to the nearest tenth, which would be 8.9.

To summarize the distance between the origin and the coordinates (-8,4), is about 8.9.

I hope this was helpful, keep learning! :D
