A company surveyed adult Americans about their consumer debt. They reported that 48% of Millennials (those born between 1980 and

1996) and 60% of Gen Xers (those born between 1965 and 1971) did not pay off their credit cards each month and therefore carried a balance from month to month. Suppose that these percentages were based on representative samples of 450 Millennials and 300 Gen Xers. Is there convincing evidence that the proportion of Gen Xers who do not pay off their credit cards each month is greater than this proportion for Millennials

Answer:

We reject H₀ at 95 % of CI the group of Gen Xers who do not pay their credit card each month, is greater than this proportion for Millennians

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample proportion 1: Born between 1980 and 1996

sample size    n₁  = 450

p₁  =  0,48        p₁ = 48 %

x₁ = 0,48 * 450        x₁ = 216

Sample proportion 2:  Born between 1965 and 1971

sample size    n₂  = 300

p₂ =  0,60         p₂ = 60%

x₂  = 0,6* 300     x₂  = 180

Test Hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis                          H₀               p₂  =   p₁

Alternative Hypothesis              H                p₂  >  p₁

Samples both big enough to use the normal distribution as an approximation to the binomial distribution.

We assume  CI = 95 %   then significance level α   = 5 %  the alternative hypothesis tells us that we need to develop a one-tail test to the right.

z-score  is z(c)  for  α = 0,05       from z-table   z(c) = 1,64

To calculate z(s)

z(s)  =  ( p₂  -  p₁ ) / √ p*q ( 1 /n₁ + 1 / n₂)

p₂ - p₁  =  0,60  - 0,48

p₂ - p₁  =  0,12

p = ( x₁ + x₂ ) / n₁ + n₂

p = ( 216  + 300) / 450 + 300

p = 516 / 750     p = 0,688      then   q = 1 - p     q = 0,312

z(s) = 0,12 / √ 0,688*0,312* ( 1/450) + 1/ 300)

z(s) = 0,12 / √ 0,2146* ( 0,0022 + 0,0033)

z(s) = 0,12 / √ 0,001192

z(s) = 0,12/ 0,03452

z(s) = 3,47

Comparing |z(c)|   and |z(s)|

z(s) > z(c)

Then z(s) is in the rejection region. We reject H₀.

We can support the  claim that the proportion of the group Gen Xers who do not pay their credit card is greater than Millennians

emmainna [20.7K]

There are 28 ways in which a couple can choose the name of the baby for its name.

<h3>What is defined as the combination?</h3>
  • A combination is an algebraic technique for determining the number of possible arrangements in a set of items in which the order of the selection is irrelevant.
  • You can choose the items in just about any order in combinations. Permutations and combinations are often confused.

If we need to choose objects from two groups of x and n objects so that one object from each group is chosen, we can do so by calculating the combinations possible by:  

= ˣC₁  ×  ⁿC₁

Let 'x' be the set of first name = 7

Let 'n' be the set of second name = 4

Putting the values in formula;

= ⁷C₁ × ⁴C₁

= 7 × 4

= 28

Thus, there are 28 ways in which a couple can choose the name of the baby for its name.
