Answer:

Since the calculated z =-3.5357 falls in the critical region z ≥ 1.645 we reject H0 and conclude that the sample provides sufficient evidence to indicate that the true percentage of all firms that announced one or more acquisitions during the year 2000 is ≥ 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Testing  hypothesis about a population proportion when sample size is large.</em></u>

If the sample size is large then the variable

z= p^-p / sqrt [pq/n]

is approximately standard normal.

Formulate the hypotheses as

H0 : p < 30%   against the claim Ha: p ≥ 30%

Choose the significance level ∝= 0.05

the critical region is z ≥ 1.645 because the alternative hypothesis is stated on a greater  than or equal to basis.

Computing

Z= 748-(2778*0.3)/ √2778*30/100*70/100

z= 748-833.4/√583.38

z= -85.4/24.153

z=-3.5357

Since the calculated z =-3.5357 falls in the critical region z ≥ 1.645 we reject H0 and conclude that the sample provides sufficient evidence to indicate that the true percentage of all firms that announced one or more acquisitions during the year 2000 is ≥ 30%

The p- value is 0.0002

10 more than 2 times a number is equal to 2 times the number plus 50. What is the number?
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

y = 40 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be y

10 more than 2 times a number = 10 + 2×y

equal to 2 times the number plus 50. = 2 × y + 50

10 + 2y = 2y + 50

combine the like terms

2y - 2y =50 - 10

0 = 40

the number supposes be 40 but the number is represented by 0

i think some thing is missing in your question

y supposes be 40 not 0 = 40

Hope this helps!
