Answer:

p-value of the statistics = 0.0096

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of an adjoining bridge. A political study took a sample of 1500 voters in the town and found that 47% of the residents favored annexation. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is above 44%.

To find - Determine the P-value of the test statistic.

Proof -

Given that,

H0 : p = 0.44

Ha : p > 0.44

Now,

Test Statistics is

z = (p bar - p)/ sqrt(p(1-p)/n)

  = (0.47 - 0.44) / sqrt(0.44(1-0.44)/1500)

  = 2.34

⇒z = 2.34

So,

p-value = P(Z > z)

             = P(Z > 2.34)

             = 0.0096

⇒p-value = 0.0096

PLEASE HELP A store is having a sale on chocolate chips and walnuts. For 5 pounds of chocolate chips and 3 pounds of walnuts, th
Stells [14]

Answer:

Chocolate Chips cost $2.25 and Walnuts cost $3.25 per pound each

Step-by-step explanatChocion:

Let x = cost of pounds of chocolate chip cookies and y = cost of pounds of walnuts.

From the question, we get 5x+3y = 21 and 2x+6y = 24. To solve the equation, we use substitution. From the first equation, we get y = (21-5x)/3. We substitute the y into the second equation to get 2x + 6(21-5x)/3 = 24. This turns out to be 2x+(42-10x) = 24. Adding like terms you should get 42-8x = 24. Solving for x, x = $2.25 per pound. Plugging this into the first equation, we get 5(2.25)+3y = 21. Solving for y, we get $3.25 per pound of walnuts. If we plug in the numbers into the 2 equations, we will get the right total.

What function corresponds to the ordered pairs shown in the table?
Anettt [7]

well, we know it's a line, and to get the equation of any line all we need is two points, let's pick two from the table hmmmm say let's use (-3 , -7) and (3 , 11)

(\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{3}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{11}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{11}-\stackrel{y1}{(-7)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{3}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{11+7}{3+3}\implies \cfrac{18}{6}\implies 3

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-7)}=\stackrel{m}{3}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}) \\\\\\ y+7=3(x+3)\implies y+7=3x+9\implies y = 3x+2

$4.30 makeup; 40% discount; 6% tax
Ket [755]
Okay, i don't want to give you the direct answer because i want you to know how to do it ... First you multuply $4.30 x .4 and you will get a number... remember  that number in your head and subtract it from the original amount of $4.30... then once you get the number from subtracting the discount, multiply that number by .6..... then with that number, add the sales tax and there is your answer!
