Adecco Workplace Insights Survey sampled men and women workers and asked if they expected to get a raise or promotion this year

(USA Today, February 16, 2012). Suppose the survey sampled 200 men and 200 women. If 104 of the men replied yes and 74 of the women replied yes, are the results statistically significant in that you can conclude a greater proportion of men are expecting to get a raise or a promotion this year?

Answer:

(a) <u>Null Hypothesis,</u> H_0 : p_1-p_2 \leq 0  or  p_1 \leq p_2  

    <u>Alternate Hypothesis</u>, H_a : p_1-p_2 > 0  or  p_1 > p_2

(b)  \hat p_1 = sample proportion of men = \frac{104}{200} = 0.52

     \hat p_2 = sample proportion of women = \frac{74}{200} = 0.37

(c) P-value is 0.0011.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Adecco Workplace Insights Survey sampled men and women workers and asked if they expected to get a raise or promotion this year (USA Today, February 16, 2012).

Suppose the survey sampled 200 men and 200 women. If 104 of the men replied yes and 74 of the women replied yes.

Let p_1 = population proportion of men who replied yes

     p_2 = population proportion of women who replied yes

(a) <u>Null Hypothesis,</u> H_0 : p_1-p_2 \leq 0  or  p_1 \leq p_2   {means that the population proportion of men is less than or equal to the population proportion of women}

<u>Alternate Hypothesis</u>, H_a : p_1-p_2 > 0  or  p_1 > p_2   {means that the population proportion of men is more than the population proportion of women}

(b)  \hat p_1 = sample proportion of men = \frac{104}{200} = 0.52

     \hat p_2 = sample proportion of women = \frac{74}{200} = 0.37

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>Two-sample z proportion statistics</u>;

               T.S.  =  \frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1} +\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p_1 = sample proportion of men who replied yes = 0.52

            \hat p_2 = sample proportion of women who replied yes = 0.37

            n_1 = sample of men = 200

            n_2 = sample of women = 200

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{(0.52-0.37)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.52(1-0.52)}{200} +\frac{0.37(1-0.37)}{200} } }

                               =  3.05

Now at 0.01 significance level, the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the population proportion of men is greater than the population proportion of women.

<u>P-value is given by the following formula</u>;

     P(Z > 3.05) = 1 - P(Z \leq 3.05)

                        = 1 - 0.99886 = 0.0011

Hence, the p-value is 0.0011.

Choose the correct sum of the polynomials (4x3 − 2x − 9) (2x3 5x 3). 6x3 − 3x − 6 2x3 − 7x − 12 6x3 3x − 6 2x3 3x − 3.
dimaraw [331]

The correct sum of the polynomial is \rm 6x^3 + 3x - 6.

We have to determine

The correct sum of the polynomials.

<h3>Sum of the polynomials</h3>

Sum of the polynomials is just a matter of combining like terms, with some order of operations.

Then,

The correct sum of the polynomial is;

\rm (4x^3 - 2x - 9) + (2x^3 + 5x + 3) \\\\ 4x^3 - 2x - 9 + 2x^3 + 5x + 3\\\\ 6x^3 + 3x - 6

Hence, the correct sum of the polynomial is \rm 6x^3 + 3x - 6.

Six times a number is greater than 20 more than that number. What are the possible values of that number?
seropon [69]
It would be easier to translate this into mathematical terms first.
Let n = the unknown number

6n <span>> n + 20

Subtracting both sides by n to simplify:
6n - n </span><span>> n + 20 - n
</span>5n <span>> 20
</span><span>
Dividing both sides by 5:
5n/5 </span><span>> 20/5
</span>n <span>> 4
</span><span>
Among the choices, the correct one is the second choice.

Which measurements for the capacity of the ice cream carton?
nalin [4]

Answer:

  • 1 cup
  • 1 gallon

Step-by-step explanation:

In retail grocery stores in the US, you can find ice cream packaged in sizes of 1 cup (half pint), 1 pint, 1 quart, 1/2 gallon, 1 gallon, and perhaps some odd sizes in between. For commercial purposes, ice cream may be packaged in tubs of 3- or 5-gallons or more.

1 teaspoon would be an unusually small size, and 1 mL is about 1/5 of a teaspoon. These quantities are somewhat smaller than would be considered a "serving" of ice cream, so would generally be of little practical use.
