Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total length of ribbon = 1 yard

Length of ribbon used for project = \frac{1}{2} yard

Length of ribbon the rest of ribbon is to be divided = \frac{1}{4} yard

To find:

The number of ribbons of length \frac{1}{4} yard that can be made = ?

Solution:

Length of ribbon left after the 1 yard ribbon is used for project can be calculated by subtracting the length of ribbon used from the initial length of ribbon.

i.e.

Length of ribbon left = 1-\frac{1}{2} =\frac{1}{2} yard

Now, number of ribbon of length \frac{1}{4} yard can be found be dividing the length of ribbon left with the length of ribbon pieces to be cut.

i.e.

Number of ribbons:

\dfrac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{2}\times 4 = 2

Does going to a private university increase the chance that a student will graduate with student loan debt? A national poll by t
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.69  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.69  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=1500 represent the random sample taken

X represent the number of graduates that had student loan debt in 2014

\hat p=0.71 estimated proportion of adults that said that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns

p_o=0.69 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

2) Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that if there was a significant increase in the proportion of student loan debt for public and nonprofit colleges in 2014 respect to the value of 2013.:  

Null hypothesis:p \leq 0.69  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.69  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

3) Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.71 -0.69}{\sqrt{\frac{0.69(1-0.69)}{1500}}}=1.675  

4) Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The significance level assumed is \alpha=0.05. The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(Z>1.675)=0.047  

If we compare the p value obtained and using the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of adults that said that it is morally wrong to not report all income on tax returns  is not significantly higher than 0.69.
