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

Jane took a piece of cardboard and cut out a triangle with measure 32°, 58°, and 90°, and side lengths 5 cm, 12 cm, and 13 cm. W
ioda
The answer is A. Right, Scalene.

This is because 90 degrees = a right angle

32 and 58 are smaller than 90, making it acute or scalene.
Isosceles means at least two sides are equal.
Equilateral means all sides are equal.

In this case, it is not isosceles or equilateral because the sides are not unequal.
It isn’t D. because that option doesn’t say “right”

butalik [34]
Using the shortcut for binomial expansion, which still took 45 minutes, I got 23-26.  The coefficient on the x^6 term is 34,020; the coefficient on the x^4 term  is -495; on the x^7 term it's 1800; on the x^3 term it's 337,920.  I'm pooped.  The rest is factorial notation, kinda the same thing, but...
