A 14-foot ladder is leaning against a building as shown. It touches a point 11 feet up on a building. How far away from the base

of the building does the ladder stand?

We can assume that the point the ladder creates with the ground and building is a triangle. You can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this.

A^2 + B^2 = C^2

The ladder is C, and the building can act as A or B, so for the purpose of this explanation, I’ll make it A.

11^2 + B^2 = 14^2
Figure out the squares

121 + B^2 = 196
Subtract 121 from both sides

B^2 = 75
Square root B^2 and 75

B = 5 root3

A random sample of 300 circuits generated 13 defectives. Use the data to test the hypothesis Upper H Subscript 0 Baseline colon
____ [38]

Complete Question

A random sample of 300 circuits generated 13 defectives. a. Use the data to test

                            H_o : p = 0.05

Versus

 

                          H_1 : p \ne 0.05

Use α = 0.05. Find the P-value for the test

   

Answer:

The  p-value is  p-value =  0.5949        

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

  The sample size is  n = 300

    The number of defective circuits is  k = 13

Generally the sample proportion of defective circuits is mathematically represented as

        \^ p = \frac{k}{n}

=>     \^ p = \frac{13}{300}

=>     \^ p = 0.0433

Generally the standard Error is mathematically represented as

       SE  = \sqrt{\frac{p(1- p)}{n} }

=>     SE  = \sqrt{\frac{0.05(1- 0.05)}{300} }

=>     SE  = 0.0126

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

       z =  \frac{\^ p - p }{SE}

=>     z =  \frac{0.0433 - 0.05 }{0.0126}

=>     z =  -0.5317

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the left  corresponding to  -0.5317  is

         (P < -0.5317 ) = 0.29747

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

       p-value =  2 * P(Z <  -0.5317 )

=>     p-value =  2 * 0.29747

=>     p-value =  0.5949
