Answer:

The 2-yard pièce of cotton cloth for $13.26

Step-by-step explanation:

2 yards is 6 feet then it would be $2.21 per foot.

The 17 foot piece would cost $3.29 per foot.

To answer this question, you need to determine which one has a lower price per unit. In this scenario, you must divide the price of the cloths by their length in feet.

For the 2-yard piece of cotton cloth, first convert the length to feet. There are three feet in a yard, so the cloth is 6 feet. Then divide:

13.26/6=2.21

For the 17-foot piece of cotton cloth, simply divide:

55.93/17=3.29

The 2-yard piece of cotton cloth for $13.26 is the better buy because it has a lower unit price.

Hope this helps!!

In a recent Super Bowl, a TV network predicted that 50 % of the audience would express an interest in seeing one of its forthcom

coldgirl [10]

Answer:

z= -0.968

We can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that they would watch one of the television shows not differs from 0.5 or 50% .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation n

n=106 represent the random sample taken

X=48 represent the people who says that they would watch one of the television shows.

$\hat p=\frac{48}{106}=0.453$ estimated proportion of people who says that they would watch one of the television shows.

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that 50% of people who says that they would watch one of the television shows.:

Null hypothesis: $p=0.5$

Alternative hypothesis: $p \neq 0.5$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.453 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{106}}}=-0.968$

4) Statistical decision

P value method or p value approach . "This method consists on determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level is not provided, but we can assume $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a bilateral test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z$

So based on the p value obtained and using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people who says that they would watch one of the television shows not differs from 0.5 or 50% .

The quantity a varies directly with b and c and inversely with dThe quantity d is tripledWhich of the following must be true for

EastWind [94]

Answer:

We have the next relation:

A = (b*d)/c

because we have direct variation with b and d, but inversely variation with c.

Now, if we have 3d instead of d, we have:

A' = (b*(3d))/c

now, we want A' = A. If b,c, and d are the same in both equations, we have that:

3bd/c = b*d/c

this will only be true if b or/and d are equal to 0.

If d remains unchanged, and we can play with the other two variables we have:

3b'd/c' = bd/c

3b'/c' = b/c

from this we can took that: if c' = c, then b' = b/3, and if b = b', then c' = 3c.

Of course, there are other infinitely large possible combinations that are also a solution for this problem where neither b' = b or c' = c

How to subtract a negative fraction from a positive fraction?

ikadub [295]

Let's take an example to illustrate this case:

positive fraction = 2/7

negative fraction = - 3/5

Now we need to subtract - 3/5 from 2/7

Right?

2/7 - (-3/5) = 2/7 + 3/5

here we need to unify the denominators as follows:

the lowest common factor between 7 and 5 is 35
2/7 = 10/35
3/5 = 21/35

Now back to 2/7 + 3/5:

2/7 + 3/5 = 10/35 + 21/35 = (10+21)/35 = 31/35

That's it

Hope that helps you
