While her husband spent 2½ hours picking out new speakers, a statistician decided to determine whether the percent of men who en

AVprozaik [17]

Answer:

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

$z=\frac{0.34848-0.34782}{\sqrt{0.34831(1-0.34831)(\frac{1}{66}+\frac{1}{23})}}=0.0057$

$p_v =P(Z>0.0057)=0.4977$

The p value is a very high value and using the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is NOT significantly higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

$X_{M}=23$ represent the number of men that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$X_{W}=8$ represent the number of women that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$n_{M}=66$ sample of male selected

$n_{W}=23$ sample of demale selected

$p_{M}=\frac{23}{66}=0.34848$ represent the proportion of men that said they enjoyed the activity of Saturday afternoon shopping

$p_{W}=\frac{8}{23}=0.34782$ represent the proportion of women with red/green color blindness

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

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

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment , 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 $\hat p=\frac{X_{M}+X_{W}}{n_{M}+n_{W}}=\frac{23+8}{66+23}=0.34831$

3) Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{0.34848-0.34782}{\sqrt{0.34831(1-0.34831)(\frac{1}{66}+\frac{1}{23})}}=0.0057$

4) Statistical decision

Using the significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ , the next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

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

$p_v =P(Z>0.0057)=0.4977$

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say the the percent of men who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment is NOT significantly higher than the percent of women who enjoy shopping for electronic equipment.

3. Jim invests $3500, compounded annually at 12% for 3 years. What is the total

irga5000 [103]

Answer:

None of the above, it should be $4760

Step-by-step explanation:

First, converting R percent to r a decimal

r = R/100 = 12%/100 = 0.12 per year,

then, solving our equation

I = 3500 × 0.12 × 3 = 1260

I = $ 1,260.00

The simple interest accumulated

on a principal of $ 3,500.00

at a rate of 12% per year

for 3 years is $ 1,260.00

A bicycle wheel makes five rotations. the bicycle travels 44.48 ft. Find the diameter of the wheel in inches.

Tema [17]

Answer:

2.42 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

the bicycle wheel rotates 5 times and travels 37.94 feet, then we know that the circumference of the wheel (the outside of the wheel as it touches the ground 5 times around) is 37.94/5 = 7.588

Then we use the formula for the circumference of a circle: 2(pi)(radius) = circumference

We plug in what we know 2(3.14)(radius) = 7.588 and then solve for the radius

We divide 2 from both sides of the equation (3.14)(radius) = 3.794

We divide pi from both sides (radius) = 1.208

Then the last step, we multiply the radius by 2, because we need the diameter, which is double the radius

1.208 * 2 = 2.416 or 2.42 rounded up

Final answer = 2.42 feet

One cubic meter of water weighs approximately 2200 pounds. There are 100 cm in one meter. If you have a box-shaped fish tank tha

Diano4ka-milaya [45]

Answer:

158.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

first find the volume of the tank

$V = 30 \times 30 \times 80$

$V = 72000 cm^3$

to convert this to m^3 we know that 1m = 100cm

$V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}}{100\,\text{cm}}\right)^3$

$V = 72000 cm^3 \times \left(\dfrac{1\,\text{m}^3}{100^3\,\text{cm}^3}\right)$

the cm^3 cancel out.

$V = \dfrac{72000}{100^3} m^3$

$V = 0.072\,m^3$

by simply converting the side-lengths to meters beforehand can give you this answer directly:

$V = 0.3 \times 0.3 \times 0.8 = 0.072 m^3$

it is given that 1 meter cube of water weighs about 2200 pounds.

$1\,m^3 = 2200 \,\text{lb}$

multiply both sides with 0.072 to find our answer:

$1\,m^3 \times 0.072 = 2200 \times 0.072 \,\text{lb}$

$0.072\,m^3 = 158.4 \,\text{lb}$

hence the weight of the water in the tank would be 158.4 pounds!
