Answer:

\fbox{\begin{minipage}{10em}Option A is correct\end{minipage}}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Step 1: Define significance level</em>

In this hypothesis testing problem, significance levels α is selected: 0.05, the associated z-value from Laplace table:

Φ(z) = α - 0.5 = 0.05 - 0.5 = -0.45

=> z = -1.645

<em>Step 2: Define null hypothesis (</em>H_{0}<em>) and alternative hypothesis (</em>H_{1}<em>)</em>

H_{0} : rate of flu infection p = 8.3% or 8.3/100 = 0.083

H_{1} : rate of flu infection p < 8.3% or 8.3/100 = 0.083

<em>Step 3: Apply the formula to check test statistic:</em>

K = \frac{f - p}{\sqrt{p(1 - p)} } * \sqrt{n}

with f is actual sampling percent, p is rate of flu infection of H_{0}, n is number of samples.

The null hypothesis will be rejected if K < z

<em>Step 4: Calculate the value of K and compare with </em>z

K = \frac{(\frac{3.5}{100})  - 0.083}{\sqrt{0.083(1 - 0.083)} } * \sqrt{200} = -2.46  

We have -2.46 < -1.645

=>This is good evidence to reject null hypothesis.

=> The actual rate is lower. (As H_{1} states)

Hope this helps!

A mine elevator was at a depth of -120 feet. After 15 seconds, the mine elevator was at a depth of -30 feet. What expression can
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

The answers to the given question are:

i.  The equipment elevator is at a depth of 176 feet (-176 feet), while the miner's elevator is at a depth of 210 feet (-210 feet) below the surface.

ii. The miner's elevator is deeper than that of the equipment.

The speed of an object is the rate at which the object moves.

i.e. speed =

Thus,

Speed of the equipment elevator = 4 feet per second

Speed of the miner's elevator = 15 feet per second.

Time of descent of the equipment elevator = 30 + 14

                                 = 44 seconds

So that, the distance of the elevator at this time is;

speed =

⇒ distance = speed x time

                  = 4 x 44

                  = 176

  distance = - 176 feet

The distance of the miner's elevator after 14 seconds is:

speed =

⇒ distance = speed x time

                 = 15 x 14

                 = 210

 distance = - 210 feet

Thus, after another 14 seconds, the equipment elevator is at a depth of 176 feet (-176 feet), while the miner's elevator is at a depth of 210 feet (-210 feet) below the surface.

Therefore, the miner's elevator is deeper than that of the equipment.

What is the solution to y = x + 2 and y = 3x – 2 and how do you know? PLEASE HELPPPPP! THANK U!
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

(2,4)

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the system:

y=x+2

y=3x-2.

This is already setup for substitution.

I'm going to replace my first y with what the second y equals.

That is, I'm going to write 3x-2=x+2.

Time to solve the following for x:

3x-2=x+2

Subtract x on both sides:

2x-2= 2

Add 2 on both sides:

2x. = 4

Divide both sides by 2:

x. = 2

Now that we know x=2 and we have an equation that relates x to y: either y=x+2 or y=3x-2, doesn't matter which we use, we can find y.

So we y=x+2 with x=2 which means y=2+2=4.

So the solution, the intersection, is (2,4).

the probability of a basketball player hitting a foul shot is 1/3. how many shots would you expect her to make in 90 attempts?
Kaylis [27]
90 attempts are made and only one third are successful. Multiply the attempts by successes and you get 30 successful shots (90 x 1/3= 30).
