Answer:

The solution to the system of equation is: (-2,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the solution to the system of equations: x + 3y = 7 and 2x + 4y = 8

I am placing steps for each point given

1. Isolate x in the first equation:

First equation is:

x+3y=7

Isolating x:

x=7-3y

2. Substitute the value for x into the second equation:

Second equation is:

2x+4y=8

Putting value of x: x=7-3y

2(7-3y)+4y=8

3. Solve for y:

2(7-3y)+4y=8

Multiply 2 with terms inside the bracket

14-6y+4y=8

-2y=8-14

-2y=-6

y=-6/-2

y=3

So, we get value of y: y=3

4. Substitute y into either original equation:

Putting value of y: y=3 in equation 1

x+3y=7

x+3(3)=7

x+9=7

x=7-9

x=-2

So, we get value of x: x=-2

5. Write the solution as an ordered pair:

After solving the equation we get:

x = -2 and y = 3

The ordered pair is: (-2,3)

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective. A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found
irakobra [83]

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A manufacturer of nails claims that only 4% of its nails are defective.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 4%, that is:

H_0: p = 0.04

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is more than 4%, that is:

H_a: p > 0.04

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.

4% is tested at the null hypothesis

This means that \mu = 0.04, \sigma = \sqrt{0.04*0.96}

A random sample of 20 nails is selected, and it is found that two of them, 10%, are defective.

This means that n = 20, X = 0.1

Value of the test statistic:

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

z = \frac{0.1 - 0.04}{\frac{\sqrt{0.04*0.96}}{\sqrt{20}}}

z = 1.37

P-value of the test and decision:

Considering an standard significance level of 0.05.

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample proportion above 0.1, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.37.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.37 has a p-value of 0.9147

1 - 0.9147 = 0.0853

The p-value of the test is 0.0853 > 0.05, which means that there is not enough evidence to reject the manufacturer's claim based on this observation.
