In August 2003, 56% of employed adults in the United States reported that basic mathematical skills were critical or very import

ant to their job. The supervisor of the job placement office at a 4-year college thinks this percentage has increased due to increased use of technology in the workplace. He takes a random sample of 30 employed adults and finds that 21 of them feel that basic mathematical skills are critical or very important to their job.
Required:
Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of employed adults who feel basic mathematical skills are critical or very important to their job has increased at the a = 0.05 level of significance?

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

First, suppose that nothing has changed, and possibility p is still 0.56. It's our null hypothesis. Now, we've got Bernoulli distribution, but 30 is big enough to consider Gaussian distribution instead.

It has mean μ= np =  30×0.56=16.8

standard deviation s = √npq

sqrt(30×0.56×(1-0.56)) = 2.71

So 21 is (21-16.8)/2.71 = 1.5494 standard deviations above the mean. So the level increased with a ˜ 0.005 level of significance, and there is sufficient evidence.

An older person is 4 years older than 7 times the age of a younger person. The sum of their ages is 44. Find their ages
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer:

5 yr and 39 yr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the age of the younger

then 7x + 4 = the age of the older

Now x + 7x + 4 = 44

8x + 4 = 44

8x = 40

x = 5

7x + 4 = 7(5) + 4 =  35 + 4 = 39

Check:  5 + 39 = 44
