the table shows the pricing for four different types of gasoline which type cost the least per gallon a $20.20 for 10 galb $26.0

Ugo [173]

Answer:

A is the cheapest deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

find unit rate; cost / quantity

20.20 / 10 = $2.02 per gallon

26.04 / 12 = $2.17 per gallon

28.24 / 24 = $2.01 per gallon

30.45 / 25 = $2.03 per gallon

An article describes an experiment to determine the effectiveness of mushroom compost in removing petroleum contaminants from so

alexgriva [62]

Solution :

Let $p_1$ and $p_2$ represents the proportions of the seeds which germinate among the seeds planted in the soil containing $3\%$ and $5\%$ mushroom compost by weight respectively.

To test the null hypothesis $H_0: p_1=p_2$ against the alternate hypothesis $H_1:p_1 \neq p_2$ .

Let $\hat p_1, \hat p_2$ denotes the respective sample proportions and the $n_1, n_2$ represents the sample size respectively.

$$\hat p_1 = \frac{74}{155} = 0.477419$

$n_1=155$

$$p_2=\frac{86}{155}=0.554839$

$n_2=155$

The test statistic can be written as :

$$z=\frac{(\hat p_1 - \hat p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1 \times (1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}} + \frac{\hat p_2 \times (1-\hat p_2)}{n_2}}}$

which under $H_0$ follows the standard normal distribution.

We reject $H_0$ at $0.05$ level of significance, if the P-value or if $|z_{obs}|>Z_{0.025}$

Now, the value of the test statistics = -1.368928

The critical value = $\pm 1.959964$

P-value = $P(|z|> z_{obs})= 2 \times P(z< -1.367928)$

$=2 \times 0.085667$

= 0.171335

Since the p-value > 0.05 and $|z_{obs}| \ngtr z_{critical} = 1.959964$ , so we fail to reject $H_0$ at $0.05$ level of significance.

Hence we conclude that the two population proportion are not significantly different.

Conclusion :

There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the $\text{proportion}$ of the seeds that $\text{germinate differs}$ with the percent of the $\text{mushroom compost}$ in the soil.
