26 x 72 = 1872
40 + 420 + 12 = 472
1872 - 472 = 1400 (the answer)
Answer:
<h2>y = 4</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Put x = 9 to the equation 3x + 4y = 43
(3)(9) + 4y = 43
27 + 4y = 43 <em>subtract 27 from both sides</em>
4y = 16 <em>divide both sides by 4</em>
y = 4
Answer:
We conclude that there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Sample size, n = 400
p = 50% = 0.5
Alpha, α = 0.05
Number of women, x = 118
First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis
This is a one-tailed test.
Formula:
Putting the values, we get,
Now, we calculate the critical value.
Now, 
Since the calculated z-statistic is less than the critical value, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.
Thus, there has been a significant reduction in the proportion of females.
