Answer:

Yes, result is significant ; PVALUE < α

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

x = 536

n = sample size = 1012

Phat = x / n = 536 / 1012 = 0.5296 = 0.53

H0 : P0 = 0.5

H1 : P0 > 0.5

Test statistic :

(Phat - P0) ÷ sqrt[(P0(1 - P0)) / n]

1-P0 = 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

(0.53 - 0.5) ÷ sqrt[(0.5*0.5)/1012]

0.03 ÷ 0.0157173

= 1.9087

Pvalue :

Using the Pvalue from test statistic :

Pvalue = 0.02815

To test if result is significant :

α = 0.05

0.02815 < 0.05

Pvalue < α ; Hence, result is significant at α=0.05; Hence, we reject H0.

How so you divide????
kicyunya [14]

To divide you are basically taking something and putting it into groups. For example, if you have 20 divided by 5, you can look at it like this.

20 apples and 5 baskets, you place one apple in each of the 5 baskets. Than you do this again until there is an even amount of apples in each basket and you don't have any outside the baskets.

So what if you have 24 apples and 5 baskets. You could do the same steps but your going to have a remainder of 4 apples because 4 apples wont fit into 5 baskets without you cutting them.

And also if you have say, 21 apples and 5 baskets you can go through the same steps but you can cut the remainder apple into 5 equal peaces to get 4.2.

Help me on this question.
NISA [10]
This question involves direct proportion which has the formula (y=kx) where y and x are the values which are proportional and k is the constant of proportionality.

The constant of proportionality is basically the value that stays the same even if the x and y values change.

In this case, the constant of proportionality would be 3/7.
