Answer:

(a) 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all car accidents that involve teenage drivers is [0.177 , 0.243].

(b) We are 95% confident that the percentage of all car accidents that involve teenage drivers will lie between 17.7% and 24.3%.

(c) We conclude that the the percentage of teenagers has not changed since you join the company.

(d) We conclude that the the percentage of teenagers has changed since you join the company.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that your manager asked you to check police records of car accidents and out of 576 accidents you selected randomly, teenagers were at the wheel in 120 of them.

(a) Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population proportion is given by;

P.Q. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion teenage drivers = $\frac{120}{576}$ = 0.21

n = sample of accidents = 576

p = population percentage of all car accidents

Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z proportion statistics.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population population, p is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95 {As the critical value of z at 2.5% level

of significance are -1.96 & 1.96}

P(-1.96 < $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ < 1.96) = 0.95

P( $-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ < ${\hat p-p}$ < $1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ) = 0.95

P( $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ < p < $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for p = [ $\hat p-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ , $\hat p+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ]

= [ $0.21-1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{576} }}$ , $0.21+1.96 \times {\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{576} }}$ ]

= [0.177 , 0.243]

Therefore, 95% confidence interval for the percentage of all car accidents that involve teenage drivers is [0.177 , 0.243].

(b) We are 95% confident that the percentage of all car accidents that involve teenage drivers will lie between 17.7% and 24.3%.

(c) We are also provided that before you were hired in the company, the percentage of teenagers who where involved in car accidents was 18%.

The manager wants to see if the percentage of teenagers has changed since you join the company.

Let p = percentage of teenagers who where involved in car accidents

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p = 18% {means that the percentage of teenagers has not changed since you join the company}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p $\neq$ 18% {means that the percentage of teenagers has changed since you join the company}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} }}$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion teenage drivers = $\frac{120}{576}$ = 0.21

n = sample of accidents = 576

So, test statistics = $\frac{0.21-0.18}{\sqrt{\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{576} }}$

= 1.768

The value of the sample test statistics is 1.768.

Now at 0.05 significance level, the z table gives critical value of -1.96 and 1.96 for two-tailed test. Since our test statistics lies within the range of critical values of z, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the the percentage of teenagers has not changed since you join the company.

(d) Now at 0.1 significance level, the z table gives critical value of -1.6449 and 1.6449 for two-tailed test. Since our test statistics does not lie within the range of critical values of z, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the the percentage of teenagers has changed since you join the company.

Sketch the area under the standard normal curve over the indicated interval and find the specified area. (Round your answer to f

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

$P(z>1.51) =1-P(Z$

And i fwe look into the normalstandar dtable we can find the desired probability:

$P(z>1.51) =1-P(Z$

And then the The area to the right of z = 1.51 is 0.0655

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we want to find the following probability:

$P(z>1.51)$

And for this case we can use the normal standard distribution and the complement rule and we have this:

$P(z>1.51) =1-P(Z$

And i fwe look into the normalstandar dtable we can find the desired probability:

$P(z>1.51) =1-P(Z$

And then the The area to the right of z = 1.51 is 0.0655

Not equivalent to any of the given expressions.

Step-by-step explanation:

${7}^{2m} . {6}^{2m} \\ \\ = (7.6) ^{2m} \\ \\ = {42}^{2m}$

Hence, ${42}^{2m}$ is not equivalent to any of the given expressions.

Which of the following is the correct factored form for the given equation? 2x^2+8x+6=0

3241004551 [841]

It would be 2(x+3)(x+1)=0

Explanation:
I used factor by grouping. You multiply the first term (2) by the last term (6). This gives you 12 then take the factors of 12 that add up to the middle term 8. You get 6 and 2.
It should look like 2x^2+6x+2x+6=0
when you do factor by grouping you factor the first two terms and then the last two terms separately. So you get (2x+2) and (x+3). (2x+2) could be factored into 2(x+1). Then you put everything together and get 2(x+3)(x+1)=0
