A manufacturer of a new medication on the market for Alzheimer's disease makes a claim that the medication is effective in 65% o

NeX [460]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.639 -0.65}{\sqrt{\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{180}}}=-0.309$

$p_v =P(z$

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of adults with the medication was effective is not significantly less than 0.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=180 represent the random sample taken

X=115 represent the adults with the medication was effective

$\hat p=\frac{115}{180}=0.639$ estimated proportion of adults with the medication was effective

$p_o=0.65$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

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

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that true proportion is less than 0.65.:

Null hypothesis: $p \geq 0.65$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.65$

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 $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{0.639 -0.65}{\sqrt{\frac{0.65(1-0.65)}{180}}}=-0.309$

Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about 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 provided $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z$

So the p value obtained was a very high value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of adults with the medication was effective is not significantly less than 0.65

A glass plummet weighs 14.35 g in air 5 points 11.40 g when immersed in water, and 8.95 g when immersed in sulfuric acid. Calcul

elena-s [515]

Answer:

0.865

Step-by-step explanation:

Specific gravity is a ratio of the weight of a substance to the weight of an equal volume of a substance chosen as a standard. The standard for liquid and solids is water while for gas is hydrogen.

Amount of displaced oil = 12.64 g — 9.12 g = 3.52 g

Amount of displaced water = 12.64 g — 8.57 g = 4.07 g

Specific gravity of oil = 3.52 g / 4.07 g = 0.865

2x+5y=11 and 4x+3y=1 solve with elimination

storchak [24]

Multiply you first equation by 2 to get 4x + 10y = 22
Now the x terms can be eliminated and cancelled out using elimination.
4x + 10y = 22
4x + 3y = 1

To eliminate you need to "subtract", so you need to multiply one of the equations by -1.

4x + 10y = 22
-4x -3y = -1
------------------
0 + 7y = 21
y = 3

Now plug 3 into either one of the equations to get x.
