In a study of red/green color blindness, 700 men and 2850 women are randomly selected and tested. Among the men, 66 have red/gre

olga55 [171]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.0943-0.00281}{\sqrt{0.0208(1-0.0208)(\frac{1}{700}+\frac{1}{2850})}}=15.197$

$p_v =P(Z>15.197) \approx 0$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men with red/green color blindness.is significanlty higher than the proportion of women with red/green color blindness.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$X_{M}=66$ represent the number of men with red/green color blindness.

$X_{W}=8$ represent the number of women with red/green color blindness.

$n_{M}=700$ sample of male slected

$n_{W}=2850$ sample of female selected

$p_{M}=\frac{66}{700}=0.0943$ represent the proportion of male with red/green color blindness.

$p_{W}=\frac{8}{2850}=0.00281$ represent the proportion of female with red/green color blindness.

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the value for the test (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the proportion of men with red/green color blindness. is higher than the proportionof women with red/green color blindness. , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $p_{M} \leq p_{W}$

Alternative hypothesis: $p_{M} > p_{W}$

We need to apply a z test to compare proportions, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{p_{M}-p_{W}}{\sqrt{\hat p (1-\hat p)(\frac{1}{n_{M}}+\frac{1}{n_{W}})}}$ (1)

Where $\hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{66+8}{700+2850}=0.0208$

Calculate the statistic

Replacing in formula (1) the values obtained we got this:

$z=\frac{0.0943-0.00281}{\sqrt{0.0208(1-0.0208)(\frac{1}{700}+\frac{1}{2850})}}=15.197$

Statistical decision

For this case we don't have a significance level provided $\alpha$ , but we can calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a one side test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z>15.197) \approx 0$

If we compare the p value and using any significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ always $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the proportion of men with red/green color blindness.is significanlty higher than the proportion of women with red/green color blindness.

Two groups of workers are painting a bridge in the bay. The first group is responsible for painting the north side of the bridge

artcher [175]

Answer:

They will each have painted 8 km. This goal will be met on Day 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Group A | Group B

Start: 2 | Start: 5 Day 1

2 + 2 = 4 | 5 + 1 = 6 Day 2

4 + 2 = 6 | 6 + 1 = 7 Day 3

6 + 2 = 8 | 7 + 1 = 8 Day 4

A portfolio is efficient if which of the following is true?

fgiga [73]

Answer:

In economics, a portfolio is a term for a specific set of stocks, bonds, shares, and other securities owned by an investor. In general, the investor seeks to compile and diversify a portfolio of securities that offers maximum profitability and at the same time is diverse, in order to minimize possible risks. In general, these types of portfolios are considered efficient, as they do not leave the investment risk tied to a single factor. However, these two goals often go against each other, so the composition of the portfolio means a certain compromise.
