Answer:

$\frac{3}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$\frac{1}{2}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{3}$

The reciprocal of $\frac{1}{3}$ is 3, so finding the reciprocal will replace the division sign with a multiplication sign.

= $\frac{1}{2}$ x 3

= $\frac{3}{2}$ or 1 $\frac{1}{2}$ or 1.5

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.

Loris makes 20 bracelets in 50 minutes. Doris makes 44 bracelets in 2 hours. who makes more bracelets per hour. how many more?

Sedaia [141]

To do this, you'll have to get loris and doris to the same amount of time, we can already tell loris makes 40 bracelets in 100 minutes but we are still missing 20 minutes, so we got to do some math(Ofc we do its mathematics) if you divide 50 by 20 you'll get 2.5 which is how many minutes it takes to make a bracelet. So now we can go back to that missing 20 minutes, if you divide 20 by 2.5, you'll get 8. So in 2 hours loris makes 48 bracelets(20 + 20(50 hours each)=40 + 8(the missing 20 minutes) = 48) But here is the tricky part it says per an hour, so we need to reduce both by half, so loris makes 24 bracelets an hour and doris makes 22 bracelets an hour so loris makes 2 more bracelets and hour than doris... hope i've helped!
