Answer:

Adult = 39

Children = 36

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of people = 75

Cost of adult ticket = $2.75

Cost of children ticket = $2.25

Total receipts = $188.25

Let the number of adult = x

Let the number of children = y

X + y = 75 ......equation (i)

(X × 2.75) + (y × 2.25) = 188.25

2.75x + 2.25y = 188.25.......equation (ii)

To find the numbe of adult and children that attended, we'll have to solve equation (i) and (ii) simultaneously.

From equation 1,

X + y = 75

X = 75 - y......equation(iii)

Put equation (iii) into equation (ii)

2.75*(75 - y) + 2.25y = 188.25

206.25 - 2.75y + 2.25y = 188.25

206.25 - 0.5y = 188.25

Collect liketerms

0.5y = 206.25 - 188.25

0.5y = 18

Y = 18 / 0.5

Y = 36

Put y = 36 into equation (i)

X + 36 = 75

X = 39

Therefore the number of adult is 39 while that of children is 36.

The Genetics & IVF Institute conducted a clinical trial of the YSORT method designed to increase the probability of conceivi
Reika [66]

Answer: The test statistic needed to test this claim= 10.92

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the probability of giving birth to a boy : p= 0.5

i..e The population proportion of giving birth to a boy =  0.5

As per given , we have

Null hypothesis : H_0: p\leq0.5

Alternative hypothesis :  H_a: p>0.5

Since H_a is right-tailed , so the hypothesis test is a right-tailed z-test.

Also, it is given that , the sample size : n= 291

Sample proportion: \hat{p}=\dfrac{239}{291}\approx0.82

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}} , where n is sample size ,  \hat{p} is sample proportion and p is the population proportion.

\Rightarrow\ z=\dfrac{0.82-0.5}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{291}}}\approx10.92

i.e. the test statistic needed to test this claim= 10.92

Critical value ( one-tailed) for  0.01 significance level = z_{0.01}=2.326

Decision : Since Test statistic value (10.92)> Critical value (2.326), so we reject the null hypothesis .

[When test statistic value is greater than the critical value , then we reject the null hypothesis.]

Thus , we concluded that we have enough evidence at 0.01 significance level to support the claim that the YSORT method is effective in increasing the likelihood that a baby will be a boy.
