Let sample in Texas be p1, Louisiana be p2.
Null Hypothesis: 
p1 - p2 = 0
Alternative Hypothesis: (This represents the claim)
p1- p2 < 0

To calculate test statistic, you need the pooled estimate which is a weighted average of the 2 sample proportions.
P = \frac{n_1 p_1 + n_2 p_2}{n_1 + n_2} = \frac{2000(.179+.265)}{2000+2000} = 0.222
Next get standard error:
SE = \sqrt{P(1-P)(\frac{1}{n_1} + \frac{1}{n_2})} = \sqrt{.222(1-.222)(\frac{1}{2000}+\frac{1}{2000})} = 0.01314
Calculate test statistic:
Z = \frac{p_1 - p_2}{SE} = \frac{.179 - .256}{.01314} = -5.86
To find p-value, look up Z-value in standard normal table.
Anything smaller than -3 or larger than 3, you can estimate to have
p-value = 0.

If p-value < alpha, Reject Null Hypothesis.
For this example, 0 < 0.05, therefore reject null hypothesis.

There is evidence to support claim that proportion of smokers in Texas is LESS than Louisiana.

What is the truth value for the following conditional statement?
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

TT→T

Step-by-step explanation:

If p is false, then ~p is true.

If q is false, then ~q is true.

Now note that

  • If a and b are both true, then a→b is true.
  • If a is true, b is false, then a→b is false.
  • If a is false, b is true, then a→b is true.
  • If a and b are both false, then a→b is true.

In your case, both~p and ~q are true, then ~p→~q is true too (or TT→T)

17. The letter is J

The letter appears 3 times

18. Lefthanded students = 4 students

<h3>How to determine the factors</h3>

17. We have that 1/4 of the months of the year start with the same letter

It is important to note that:

January, June and July all start with the same letter

The letter is J

The letter appears 3 times

18. Total number of students = 24

5/ 6 are right handed

Right handed students = 24 × 5/ 6 = 4 × 5 = 20 students

Lefthanded students = 24 - righthanded students

Lefthanded students = 24 - 20

Lefthanded students = 4 students

Thus, we can see that the letter that appear in 3 months of the year is J
