Answer:
1) A. H0: p = 0.30
HA: p not equal to 0.30
2) A. The Independence Assumption is met.
C. The Randomization Condition is met.
D. The Success/Failure Condition is met.
3) Test statistic z = 2.089
P-value = 0.0367
4) C. Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to suggest that the percentage of bills paid by medical insurance has changed.
Step-by-step explanation:
1) This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.
The claim is that there is a significant change in the percent of bills being paid by medical insurance.
As we are looking for evidence of a difference, no matter if it is higher or lower than the null hypothesis proportion, the alternative hypothesis is defined by a unequal sign.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
2) Cheking the conditions:
The independence assumption and the randomization condition are met as the bills were selected randomly from the population.
The 10% condition can not be checked, as we do not know the size of the population.
The success/failure condition is met as the products np and n(1-p) are bigger than 10 (the number of successes and failures are both bigger than 10).
3) The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.
The sample has a size n=9260.
The sample proportion is p=0.31.
The standard error of the proportion is:
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
This test is a two-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:
As the P-value (0.0184) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.
The null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that there is a significant change in the percent of bills being paid by medical insurance.
Answer:
13) ⇒
15) ⇒
Step-by-step explanation:
Given expression:
13)
15)
Write the expressions in radical form.
Solution:
For an expression with exponents as fraction like
the numerator represents the power it is raised to and the denominator
represents the nth root of the expression.
For an expression with exponents as negative fraction like
We take the reciprocal of the term by rule for negative exponents.
So it is written as:
using the above properties we can write the given expressions in radical form.
13)
⇒ [Using rule of negative exponents]
⇒ [writing in radical form]
15)
⇒ [Since 2nd root is given as
in radical form]
