Suppose the true proportion of students at a college who study abroad is 0.25. I select a random sample of 40 students from the

college and record if they have studied abroad. What is the probability that the proportion of students in my sample who have studied abroad is less than 0.2

Answer:

\mu_{\hat p} = 0.25

\sigma_{\hat p}= \sqrt{\frac{0.25*(1-0.25)}{40}}= 0.0685

z = \frac{0.2-0.25}{0.0685}= -0.730

And we can use the normal standard distribution or excel to find this probability and we got:

P(\hat p

Step-by-step explanation:

We define the parameter as the proportion of students at a college who study abroad and this value is known p =0.25, we select a sample size of n =40 and we are interested in the probability associated to the sample proportion, but we know that the distirbution for the sample proportion is given by:

\hat p \sim N(p , \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}

And the paramters for this case are:

\mu_{\hat p} = 0.25

\sigma_{\hat p}= \sqrt{\frac{0.25*(1-0.25)}{40}}= 0.0685

We want to find the following probability:

P(\hat p< 0.2)

For this case since we know the distribution for the sample proportion we can use the z score formula given by:

z = \frac{\hat p -\mu_{\hat p}}{\sigma_{\hat p}}

Replacing the info given we got:

z = \frac{0.2-0.25}{0.0685}= -0.730

And we can use the normal standard distribution or excel to find this probability and we got:

P(\hat p

Ashley found 78 rocks on Monday. on Tuesdays Devin found 45 rocks how many did the find both days
scoundrel [369]
Lets look at the info we have:-

Ashley found 78 rocks on Monday.
Devin found 45 rocks on Tuesday. 

Question:-

How many did they find both days?

The key word for this is "both". So we need to add here. Lets add:-

78 + 45 = 123

So, Ashley and Devin together found 123 rocks.

Hope I helped ya!! xD

Determine whether the triangles are similar by AA, SSS, SAS, or not similar
Anton [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Δ JKL ~ Δ JHG , then

\frac{LJ}{GJ} = \frac{KJ}{HJ}

\frac{95}{68} ≠ \frac{87}{72} ⇒ triangles are not similar
