Answer: ratio a:b = 3:5 p(X, 2) = p(9, 2)
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Plot points a = (12, 5) and b = (4, -3) and draw a line segment from a to b.
Notice that when y = 2, X = 9 so point p = (9, 2) <em>see graph</em>
The distance from a to p = 3√2
The distance from b to p = 5√2
So the ratio of a:b = 3√2:5√2 = 3:5 <em>when simplified</em>
<em />
<em>To find the distance, use the distance formula OR pythagorean theorem.</em>
<span> First, reduce the fraction to lowest terms, e.g. 8/6 = 4/3.
Look at the denominator. Split it into its prime factors. If its prime
factors only consist of 2's and 5's, then it will be terminating.
Examples:
16 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2, so terminating
25 = 5 x 5, so terminating
2000 = 2 x 1000 = 2 x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5) x (2 x 5), so terminating
12 = 2 x 3, so repeating (has prime factor 3, which is not 2 or 5)
13 = 13, so repeating (has prime factor 13, which is not 2 or 5) Hope this helps!!

Answer:
p = 0.07
p-hat = 0.035
p0 = 0.07
p-value = 0.003
Step-by-step explanation:
p = population parameter, in this case, the rate of infestations across all trees in the forest
p-hat = test statistic, in this case, the rate of infestations found in the sample of trees, i.e. those in Doug's backyard
p0 = the null hypothesis, in this case, the rate of infestations within the forest is correctly evaluated at 0.07 or 7%
p-value = the likelihood any difference between p and p-hat is down to chance
In this case 0.003 as the p-value means there is only 0.3% probability of our statistic value of 0.035 being down to variability and chance meaning it is 99.7% likely that there is some reason behind this difference;
We would accept the alternative hypothesis which says the current parameter value, 0.07, is in fact incorrect (either too high or too low, in this case, likely too high).
