Answer:
Option B) Do not reject null hypothesis, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of homes in Oregon heated by natural gas is different from the 48% that the US Department of Energy reported.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Sample size, n = 333
p = 48% = 0.48
Alpha, α = 0.01
Number of women belonging to union , x = 149
First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis
This is a two-tailed test.
Formula:
Putting the values, we get,
Now, we calculate the p-value from the table.
P-value = 0.273079
Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and accept the null hypothesis.
Thus, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that proportion of homes in Oregon that were heated by natural gas is different from what was reported.
B. Do not reject null hypothesis, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of homes in Oregon heated by natural gas is different from the 48% that the US Department of Energy reported.
Answer:
1/36
Step-by-step explanation:
When you roll it the first time, the chances to get a 1 is 1/6.
when you roll it the second time, the chance is still 1/6, but the chance of rolling one twice in a row, is the product of the probabilities:
1/6 * 1/6 = 1/36
Answer:
A. The ordered pair (5, 3.5) represents 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50.
B. The cost per pound of strawberries is shown at (1, 0.7).
C. The relationship shown in the graph is a direct variation because as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost also increases.
Explanation:
A. The coordinate is in (x,y). The x-axis represents the pound of strawberries and the y-axis represents the cost of the strawberries.
B. The cost for one pound of strawberries can be calculated to find the exact value of y (cost) when x is 1. The graph shows 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50 so divide $3.50 by 5 lbs. to find the cost per pound of strawberries. 3.5 ÷ 5 = 0.7. On the graph, the cost for one pound of strawberries is at (1, 0.7)
C. A direct variation in a graph is shown when both x and y increase or decrease together. In this case, as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost of the strawberries also increases.
It is normally smart to write out a diagram of some sort to help you visualize the situation. I made one for this situation, although it might now suit you as well as it would me.
The idea behind this problem is to make you understand rates. Rates being the same thing as a slope. If you have learned about that already then that will help a lot, but if you haven't then that's fine.
So we have 4.8m and we traveled at a speed of 3 meters per 1 minute. A rate you are probably pretty familiar with is mph. Which is Miles per Hour. Or if you don't live in the U.S. Kmph. Which is Kilometers per Hour.
What you do to solve these type of problems is you take the given value and you use the rate to get the value you want.
The easiest way to do this is to make sure the signs (Meters) "cancel" out.
4.8m * (1min / 3m)
To cancel something out you need to have it over itself. Here are a few examples:
3/3 = 1
4/4 = 1
100,000/100,000 = 1
598/598 = 1
In the case of units, such as meters. They go *poof* from the problem.
So we have this problem:
(4.8m*1 minute) / 3m = ? minutes
4.8/3 = 1.6
If you want the answer in fractional form... here is how you do it: (I won't explain it because you most likely won't need to do this, but if you want to know how to do it then just ask)
4(8/10)
4(4/5)
(24/5)/3
(24/5) * (1/3)
24/15
8/5 is our final fractional answer!
I believe it is A but i am not 100% sure
