A recent drug survey showed an increase in use of drugs and alcohol among local high school students as compared to the national

percent. Suppose that a survey of 100 local youths and 100 national youths is conducted to see if the percentage of drug and alcohol use is higher locally than nationally. Locally, 65 seniors reported using drugs or alcohol within the past month, while 61 national seniors reported using them.
Required:
Conduct a hypothesis test at the 5% level.

Answer:

We fail to reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis : H0 : Plocal ≤ Pnational

Alternative hypothesis : H1 : Plocal > Pnational

Plocal = P1 = 65/100 = 0.65

Pnational = P2 = 61/100 = 0.61

n1 = 100 ; n2 = 100

Mean, m = P1 - P2 = 0.65 - 0.61 = 0.04

The standard deviation : = sqrt(Variance)

Variance = P1(1 - P1) /n1 + P2(1 - P2) /n2

Variance = 0.65(0.35)/100 + 0.61(0.39)/100

Variance = 0.002275 + 0.002379 = 0.004654

Standard deviation (s) = √(0.004654) = 0.06822

Z = m/s = 0.04 / 0.06822 = 0.586

Using the p-value from Z score calculator :

Hence, Pvalue for a Zscore 0.586 at 5% = 0.278938

Since ;

P-value is > α ; 0.278938 > 0.05

Then we fail to reject H0

What is the probability you roll doubles on two 6 sides dice <br> please show work
Mars2501 [29]

Answer:

1/6

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start by determining all the different combinations we can get.

We are using 6 sided dices, so we have a chance of getting 6 different numbers for each dice.

If we only have 1 dice, the our possible values would be:

1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6

However, we have 2 dices. As such, our combinations have been multiplied, and now our possibilities are:

(1 , 1) , (1 , 2) , (1 , 3) , (1 , 4) , (1 , 5) , (1 , 6) , (2 , 1) , (2 , 2) , (2 , 3) , (2 , 4) , (2 , 5) , (2 ,6), and so on for 3, 4, 5, and 6

We can find the number of combinations by simply multiplying the amount of possible values for each dice.

Since both dices have 6 possible values, we multiply 6 by 6, and the amount of possible combinations is 36.

Now, let's determine the possibility for getting a double.

First, let's determine how many doubles we can get:

(1 , 1) , (2 , 2) , (3 , 3) , (4 , 4) , (5 , 5) , (6 ,6)

There are 6 different combinations for rolling a double.

So, our probability of rolling a double on two 6 sided dices is 6 out of 36

We can simplify that to 1 out of 6.

So the probability of rolling a double on two 6 sided dices is 1/6
