Sarah competes in a long jump competition.

1 answer:

8 0

How to find Sarah’s best jump:
First you multiply 4.25 by 12% (or 0.12) to get 0.51 meters.
4.25 + 0.51 = 4.76 meters. So her best jump is 4.76 meters.
How to find the winning jump:
Since her best jump is 15% less than the winning jump, it must be 85% of the winning jump (as in 85 is 85% of 100).
So you divide 4.76 by 85% (or 0.85) which equals 5.6 meters.
So, the winning jump was 5.6 meters.

Determine whether the normal sampling distribution can be used. The claim is p < 0.015 and the sample size is n

Svetradugi [14.3K]

Complete Question

Determine whether the normal sampling distribution can be used. The claim is p < 0.015 and the sample size is n=150

Answer:

Normal sampling distribution can not be used

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The null hypothesis is $H_o : p = 0.015$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : p < 0.015$

The sample size is n= 150

Generally in order to use normal sampling distribution

The value $np \ge 5$

$np = 0.015 * 150$

$np = 2.25$

Given that $np < 5$ normal sampling distribution can not be used

A number doubled and has four added to it. The result is divided by three and then added to the product of the original number a

X= a number

(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
Multiply everything by 3 to eliminate the fraction
(3/1)((2x+4)/3) + (3)(x+2)= (3)(20)
2x+4+3x+6= 60
5x+10=60
Subtract 10 from both sides
5x=50
divide both sides by 5
x=10

Check:
Substitute answer in original equation
(2x+4)/3 + (x+2)= 20
(2(10)+4)/3+(10+2)= 20
(20+4)/3+12= 20
24/3+12= 20
8+12= 20
20=20

Hope this helps! :)
