Alex wants to test the reliability of “lie detector tests,” or polygraph tests. He performs a polygraph test on a random sample

of 12 individuals. If there is more than a 50% chance that the tests result in no false positives (that is, the test does not result in a true statement being recorded as a lie), Alex will conclude that the tests are reliable. If the probability of a lie detector test resulting in a false positive is 5.5%, what will Alex conclude? Use Excel to find the probability, rounding to three decimal places.

The correct statement is test is reliable and authentic as the probability of no false positives is more than 0.5

Given that

H_o:P= 0.50\\\\H_1:P>0.50

Now following calculations to be done to reach out the conclusion

There is no false positive as

= 100 - 5.5

= 94.5%

\hat P =0.945, n = 12

Now

z = \frac{\hat P - P}{\sqrt\frac{P(1-P)}{n} }\\\\=\frac{0.945-0.5}{\sqrt\frac{0.5\times0.5}{12} }  \\\\= 3.08

So

P value = P(z >3.08) = 0.0010

Therefore we can conclude that test is reliable and authentic as the probability of no false positives is more than 0.5

Known :

Ratio = Greg : Harry = 1 : 3

Greg's money = £8

Asked :

Harry's money = ...?

Answer :

\:  \ \:  \:  \:   \:  \:  \:  \frac{1}{3}  =  \frac{greg}{harry}  \\   \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \: \frac{1}{3}  =  \frac{8}{harry}  \\ harry =  \frac{3 \times 8}{1}  \\ harry = 24

So, Harry gets £24

To solve your question, you add all of the measurements together, set them equal to 180, solve for x, and plug x back in for whichever angle they are asking for; in this case, they want angle R 

7x + 12x + 20 + 20x - 35 = 180
39x - 15 = 180
39x = 180 + 15
39x = 195
x = 5

Angle R = 12x + 20
12(5) + 20
60 + 20
80

Option C is your answer.

Answer:

Her answer is wrong because she the object cannot hit the ground at negative seconds. She could’ve have used other methods because she used the quadratic formula. The advantages is that it works for every situation. The disadvantages is that it takes longer. She should’ve used a different method.
