Answer:

a. 1.44

Step-by-step explanation:

We are interested in determining whether or not the proportion of the population in favor of Candidate A is significantly more than 40%.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is of at most 40%, that is:

H_0: p \leq 0.4

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is of more than 40%, that is:

H_1: p > 0.4

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.4 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that p = 0.4, \sigma = \sqrt{0.4*0.6}

A random sample of 200 people was taken. 90 of the people in the sample favored Candidate A.

This means that:

n = 200, X = \frac{90}{200} = 0.45

Value of the test statistic:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{0.45 - 0.4}{\frac{\sqrt{0.4*0.6}}{\sqrt{200}}}

z = 1.44

Thus the correct answer is given by option a.

Barrett works at an ice cream shop. The function f(x) represents the amount of money Barrett earns per gallon of ice cream, wher
Sliva [168]

The value of f(g(x)) is 6x^{3} +4

Explanation:

The function f(x) is given by

f(x)=2x^{2} +4

The function g(x) is given by

g(x)=\sqrt{3x^{3} }

To determine the value of f(g(x)), let us first substitute the value of g(x).

Thus, we get,

f(g(x))=f(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )

Now, substituting for x=\sqrt{3x^{3} } in the function f(x), we get,

f(g(x))=2(\sqrt{3x^{3} } )^2+4

Simplifying, the expression, we get,

f(g(x))=2({3x^{3} } )+4

Multiplying the term within the bracket, we have,

f(g(x))=6x^{3} +4

Thus, the value of f(g(x)) is 6x^{3} +4

Hence, the value of f(g(x)) represents the total amount of money that Barrett earns for working x hours.

How do I convert radians to degrees? Is it pi/180 or 180/pi? I get them confused! Thanks
o-na [289]
It could be either one, depending on whether you intend to multiply or divide.

When you convert, just remember that degrees ==> less radians,
and radians ==> more degrees.  Then you can always check the
results, and make sure that you used the right conversion factor
in the right direction.
