Solution :

Here the probability that exactly 28 out of 304 students will not graduate on time. That is

P (x = 28)

By using the normal approximation of binomial probability,

$P(x=a) = P(a-1/2 \leq x \leq a+1/2)$

∴ $P(x=28) = P(28-1/2 \leq x \leq 28+1/2)$

                   $=P(27.5 \leq x \leq 28.5)$

That is the area between 27.5 and 28.5

Therefore, the correct option is (e). Area between 27.5 and 28.5

A loan of $8,000 is paid back in two years in monthly payments of $400. The percentage interest on the loan was
Serhud [2]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of months in two years is 24 months.

Now, with a repayment plan of $400 per month, the total amount returned will be 400 * 24 = $9,600

Now, $8,000 was borrowed but $9,600 was returned

The amount of interest is 9600-8000 = 1600

So what percentage of 8,000 is 1600?

1600/8000 * 100 = 16/80 * 100 = 1/5 * 100 = 20%

Suppose 232subjects are treated with a drug that is used to treat pain and 50of them developed nausea. Use a 0.01significance le
Margarita [4]

Answer:

A

   The  correct option is B

B

   t =  0.6093

C

 p-value  =  0.27116

D

The  correct option is  D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample size is  n  =  232

    The  number that developed  nausea  is X =  50

    The population proportion is  p  =  0.20  

 

The  null hypothesis is   H_o : p  =  0.20

The  alternative hypothesis is  H_a :  p > 0.20

Generally the sample proportion is mathematically represented as

     \r p  =  \frac{50}{232}

     \r p  =  0.216

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

 =>           t =  \frac{\r p  -  p }{ \sqrt{ \frac{p(1- p )}{n} } }

=>           t =  \frac{ 0.216 - 0.20 }{ \sqrt{ \frac{ 0.20 (1- 0.20 )}{ 232} } }

=>        t =  0.6093

The  p-value obtained from the z-table is

       p-value  =  P(Z >  0.6093) =  0.27116

  Given that the  p-value >  \alpha  then we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Identify whether the series is a convergent or divergent geometric series and find the sum, if possible. A) This is a convergent
Darya [45]
A divergent series is a type of series in which the ratio is too large and the summation is held from one to infinity. Hence, the sum could not be found out. A convergent series, on the other hand, has a definite answer because one could be the ratio is small and the lower and upper limits are defined not equal to infinity either positive or negative.
