In recent commercials Toyota claimed that 80% of its vehicles sold in the past 20 years are still on the road. You work for an a

gency that wants to test this claim. You are willing to accept Toyota's claim unless there is statistically significant evidence that it is false. You have a limited budget, but you want to get the most accurate results you can. Describe, from beginning to end, how you would run your study.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform one sample proportion test. To do so we have to proceed through following steps.

(1) We have to collect data about vehicle sales in last 20 years.

(2) Using random number table or random number generator or otherwise we have to select sample of vehicles from the list of sale. In this step, we have to keep an eye on the fact that sample is to be selected from all years (all of 20). Using stratified random sampling by dividing vehicles sold over different years is an effective way to do so. That means, we may divide vehicles sold into 20 homogeneous strata over 20 years and select sample from each strata.

(3) After selecting sample of vehicles we have to communicate to corresponding vehicle owners to gather information about that particular vehicle.

(4) We have to note number of vehicles which are still on the road.

Suppose, we have selected  n vehicles as sample and after communicating we found that \tiny r of those are still on the road.

We have to test for null hypothesis H_0:p=0.80

against the alternative hypothesis H_1 \neq 0.80

Our test statistic is given

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

here,

\hat p =\frac{r}{n}

p_0 =0.80

z=\frac{r/n-0.80\sqrt{n} }{0.40} \\\\=2.5(\frac{r}{n} -0.8)\sqrt{n}

We then calculate corresponding p-value.

We reject our null hypothesis if \text{p-value} , level of significance.

According to our obtained p-value and level of significance we proceed to certain conclusion.

You are having a conference call with the CEO of a paper company. You have interpreted the number of trees cut down versus profi
loris [4]
You can only cut down a integer number of trees. So you might look at a few integer values for x. As x get large the –x4 term dominates the expression for big losses. x = 0 is easy P(x) = -6. Without cutting any trees you have lost money Put x = 1 and you get for the terms in order  -1 + 1 + 7 -1 -6 = 0. So P(x) crosses zero just before you cut the first tree. So you make a profit on only 1 tree. However when x=10 you are back into no profit. So compute a few values for x = 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.

The ratio of girls to boys in the junior high band is 5 to 7. At the beginning of year, there were 72 students in the band. By t
rusak2 [61]
Ratio is 5girls:7boys with total 72 students
5+7= 12
72➗12= 6
6(5:7)= 30 girls : 42 boys

New ratio is 3:4 with 48 boys

48➗4= 12

So for girls 3x12= 36

So started with 30 girls ended with 36 girls... 6 girls joined band during the school year.
