Answer:

Speed of the Star Fish is 3 centimeter per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Top speed of star fish = 161 centimeter per minutes

We need to express given speed in centimeter per second.

We know that ,

1 minute = 60 seconds.

So, Speed of Star fish in centimeter per second = $161\times\frac{1\:cm}{60\:second}$

= $\frac{161}{60}\:\frac{cm}{second}$

= $2.6833\:\frac{cm}{second}$

= $3\:cm\:per\:second$

Therefore, Speed of the Star Fish is 3 centimeter per second.

There are 60 seconds in 1 minute

$\frac{161}{} \frac{cm}{min} \times \frac{1}{60} \frac{min}{seconds}= \frac{161}{60} \frac{cm}{seconds}$

Find an equation for the perpendicular bisector of the line segment whose endpoints are ( − 1 , − 1 ) (−1,−1) and ( 9 , 7 ) (9,7

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

Place the compass at one end of line segment.

Adjust the compass to slightly longer than half the line segment length.

Draw arcs above and below the line.

Keeping the same compass width, draw arcs from other end of line.

Place ruler where the arcs cross, and draw the line segment.

Suppose a consumer group suspects that the proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known to be 30%. A cell phon

leva [86]

Answer:

We conclude that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a consumer group suspects that the proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known to be 30%.

Their marketing people survey 150 households with the result that 43 of the households have three cell phones.

Let p = proportion of households that have three cell phones NOT known.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 30% {means that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 30% {means that the actual percentage of households different from 30%}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z-test for proportions;

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

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of households having three cell phones = $\frac{43}{150}$ = 0.29

n = sample of households = 150

So, the test statistics = $\frac{0.29-0.30}{\sqrt{\frac{0.30(1-0.30)}{150} } }$

= -0.27

The value of z test statistic is -0.27.

Also, P-value of the test statistics is given by;

P-value = P(Z < -0.27) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 0.27)

= 1 - 0.6064 = 0.3936

Now, at 1% significance level the z table gives critical value of -2.58 and 2.58 for two-tailed test.

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 we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the actual percentage of households is equal to 30%.
