Answer:

83 and 71

Step-by-step explanation:

One number is twelve less than the other number

Let the one number be x

Let the other number be x - 12

Since one number is 12 , less than the other number, and the total of the two numbers is 154, then, we'll have

x + x - 12 = 154

2x = 154 + 12

2x = 166

x = 83

Therefore, both numbers would be;

First number = x = 83

Second number = x - 12 = 83 - 12 = 71

The U.S. Census Bureau conducts annual surveys to obtain information on the percentage of the voting-age population that is regi
yan [13]

Answer:

We conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 513 employed persons and 604 unemployed persons are independently and randomly selected, and that 287 of the employed persons and 280 of the unemployed persons have registered to vote.

Let p_1 = <u><em>percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote.</em></u>

p_2 = <u><em>percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : p_1\leq p_2      {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote does not exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : p_1>p_2     {means that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>Two-sample z test for proportions;</u>

                          T.S. =  \frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \hat p_1 = sample proportion of employed workers who have registered to vote = \frac{287}{513} = 0.56

\hat p_2 = sample proportion of unemployed workers who have registered to vote = \frac{280}{604} = 0.46

n_1 = sample of employed persons = 513

n_2 = sample of unemployed persons = 604

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{(0.56-0.46)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.56(1-0.56)}{513}+\frac{0.46(1-0.46)}{604} } }

                                       =  3.349

The value of z test statistics is 3.349.

<u>Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 3.349 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that the percentage of employed workers who have registered to vote exceeds the percentage of unemployed workers who have registered to vote.

What is the average of -2.6, 1.8, -3.3, -2.7, 2.2 ?<br> I dont understand this.
olya-2409 [2.1K]
Average = Mean

To find the mean, add up the numbers and divide it by how many numbers there are.

So,  -2.6+1.8+(-3.3)+(-2.7)+2.2=-4.6

There are 5 numbers in total.

-4.6 \div 5=-0.92

To do these types of division, ignore the decimal and add a 0 at the end.

So we can do:
-460\div5=-92

And put back the decimal.
Hope this helps :)

Dear god help me I NEED this answer!!
tatiyna

Answer:

<em>Correct choices: a) 5:12 and c) 7 to 12</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of red beads to pink beads is 5:7. This means that for every 5 red beads there are 7 pink beads.

It also means that for every 12 beads there are 5 red beads and 7 pink beads.

Therefore, there are two part-to-whole ratios:

5:12 red beans to total beads, and

7:12 pink beans to total beads

Correct choices: a) 5:12 and c) 7 to 12
