A yearbook company was investigating whether there is a significant difference between two states in the percents of high school

students who order yearbooks. From a random sample of 150 students selected from one state, 70 had ordered a yearbook. From a random sample of 100 students selected from the other state, 65 had ordered a yearbook. Which of the following is the most appropriate method for analyzing the results?

Answer: D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

The options for the given questions were missing. The options are as follows:

A one-sample z-test for a sample proportion

B one-sample z-test for a population proportion

A

C two-sample z-test for a difference in sample proportions

D two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Solution:

Sample proportions are used to estimate population proportions.

We are given the sample proportion of students from one state who ordered a yearbook = 70/150

We are also given the sample proportion of students from the other state who ordered a yearbook = 65/100

Since there are 2 samples and we want to investigate if there is a difference between 2 population of students,

Therefore, the most appropriate method for analyzing the results is

D. two-sample z-test for a difference in population proportions

Answer:

42

Step-by-step explanation:

We use (BODMAS) :

Brackets

Order/Index

Division

Multiplication

Addition

Subtraction

Now we do bracket first :

7(3²) = 7(9) = 63

Now we do division :

63÷3 = 21

Now we do multiplication :

2 × 21 = 42

Hope this helped and have a good day

Luke can buy bottles of water in packages of 6 for $15.24 or in packages of 4 for $11.16. How much money does he save by buying

creativ13 [48]

Answer:

$6\ for\ \$15.24\ is\ better\ price\\\\Total\ saving=\$12$

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost at the rate 6 for $15.24:

Cost of $6$ bottles $=\$15.24$

Cost of $1$ bottle $=\$\frac{15.24}{6}$

Cost of $48$ bottles $=\frac{15.24}{6}\times 48=15.24\times 8=\$121.92$

Cost at the rate 4 for $11.16:

Cost of $4$ bottles $=\$11.16$

Cost of $1$ bottle $=\frac{11.16}{4}$

Cost of $48$ bottles $=\frac{11.16}{4}\times 48=11.16\times 12=\$133.92$

Hence $6\ bottles\ for\ 15.24$ is less expensive.

Total saving $=133.92-121.92=\$12$

Given the speeds of each runner below, determine who runs the fastest.

alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

Brooke

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this by figuring out how far each person runs a second

Stephanie runs 12 feet a second so nothing needs to be done here

Liz runs 306 feet in 38 seconds. To solve for the distance ran in 1 second we can divide (306/38)= around 8 feet

Will runes 1 mile in 491 seconds. A quick search will tell use that 1 mile is equal to 5280 feet and 5280/491 = 10.75

Brooke runs 851 feet in 1 minute or 60 seconds. 851/60 =14.18

Brooke obviously runs the furthest in one second and therefore she's the fastest runner

Ho do you get the Surface Area of this shape?

blsea [12.9K]

This solid object contains 8 sides.

The side that is facing you has a surface area:

$64f{ t }^{ 2 }+84f{ t }^{ 2 }=148f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side exactly opposite this one has the same surface area - 2 sides with this surface area in total.

The bottom side has a surface area:

$84f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side to your right has a surface area:

$84f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side to your left has a surface area:

$48f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side to your top left has a surface area:

$48f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side beside the side to the top left has a surface area:

$36f{ t }^{ 2 }$

The side at the very top has a surface area:

$36f{ t }^{ 2 }$

Combined, the surface area is:

$S=2\cdot 148f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 84f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 48f{ t }^{ 2 }+2\cdot 36f{ t }^{ 2 }$

$\\ \\ =296f{ t }^{ 2 }+168f{ t }^{ 2 }+96f{ t }^{ 2 }+72f{ t }^{ 2 }\\ \\ =632f{ t }^{ 2 }$

Therefore the answer is: C
