8$ If the sale is 75% then it would be 8$ because 2x4 is 8 and 3/4 of the is 2.

Sail with the equation by completing the square x^2+8x=-3

maxonik [38]

Answer:

The solutions are $x=-4(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

$x^{2} +8x=-3$

Complete the square. Remember to balance the equation by adding the same constants to each side

$x^{2} +8x+16=-3+16$

$x^{2} +8x+16=13$

Rewrite as perfect squares

$(x+4)^{2}=13$

square root both sides

$x+4=(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

$x=-4(+/-)\sqrt{13}$

A consulting firm had predicted that 35% of the employees at a large firm would take advantage of a new company Credit Union, bu

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

a) 0.4770

b) 3.9945

c) z-statistics seem a large value

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Find the standard deviation of the sample proportion based on the null hypothesis

Based on the null hypothesis:

$p_{0}$ : 0.35

and the standard deviation σ = $\sqrt{p_{0} *(1-p_{0}) }$ = $\sqrt{0.35 *0.65 }$ ≈0.4770

b. Find the z statistic

z-statistic is calculated as follows:

z= $\frac{X-p_{o} }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{N} } }$ where

X is the proportion of employees in the survey who take advantage of the Credit Union ( $\frac{138}{300}=0.46$ )
$p_{0}$ is the proportion in null hypothesis (0.35)
s is the standard deviation (0.4770)
N is the sample size (300)

putting the numbers in the formula:

z= $\frac{0.46-0.35} }{\frac{0.4770}{\sqrt{300} } }$ = 3.9945

c. Does the z statistic seem like a particularly large or small value?

z-statistics seem a large value, which will cause us to reject the null hypothesis.
