You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is sign

ificantly less than 0.37. A random sample of 780 men over the age of 50 found that 206 have their prostate regularly examined. Do the sample data provide convincing evidence to support the claim. Test the relevant hypotheses using a 10% level of significance. Give answers to at least 4 decimal places. What are the correct hypotheses?

Answer:

1. Yes, the sample data provides convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.37

2. The correct hypotheses are;

The null hypothesis is H₀: p ≥ p₀

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ: p < p₀

Step-by-step explanation:

given

The null hypothesis is H₀: p ≥ p₀ where p₀ = 0.37

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ: p < p₀

The formula for the z test is presented as follows;

z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p_0}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p_0 (1 - p_0)}{n}}}

Where:

\hat p = Sample proportion = 206/780 = 0.264

p₀ = Population proportion = 0.37

n = Sample size = 780

α = Significance level = 10% = 0.01

Plugging in the values, we have;

z=\dfrac{0.264-0.37}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.37 (1 - 0.37)}{780}}} = -6.13

From the the z relation/computation, we have the p value = 0.000000000451

Since the p value which is 0.000000000451 is less than α, which is 0.01 we reject the null hypothesis and we fail to reject the alternative hypothesis, that is there is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.37.

2y = 4x - 8 <br>3x + 2y = 6<br>graph​
Vinvika [58]

Answer:

  see attached

Step-by-step explanation:

I find it convenient to let a graphing calculator draw the graph (attached).

__

If you're drawing the graph by hand, there are a couple of strategies that can be useful.

The first equation is almost in slope-intercept form. Dividing it by 2 will put it in that form:

  y = 2x -4

This tells you that the y-intercept, (0, -4) is a point on the graph, as is the point that is up 2 and right 1 from there: (1, -2). A line through those points completes the graph.

__

The second equation is in standard form, so the x- and y-intercepts are easily found. One way to do that is to divide by the constant on the right to get ...

  x/2 +y/3 = 1

The denominators of the x-term and the y-term are the x-intercept and the y-intercept, respectively. If that is too mind-bending, you can simply set x=0 to find the y-intercept:

  0 +2y = 6

  y = 6/2 = 3

and set y=0 to find the x-intercept

  3x +0 = 6

  x = 6/3 = 2

Plot the intercepts and draw the line through them for the graph of this equation.

___

Here, we have suggested graphing strategies that don't involve a lot of manipulation of the equations. The idea is to get there as quickly as possible with a minimum of mistakes.
