Seclect all the sets of numbers that are possible values for x in the inequalit, x > - 8. { -10, -8, -6}. { -8, 0, 8}. { -9,

Answer:

{ -6, -4, -2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Since x > - 8, x can be any number greater than - 8.

x = -7, -6, -5, -4,...

BUT, it can't be equal because it's not using this sign $\geq$

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

1. { -10, -8, -6} can't be an inequality of x because it has -10, -8.

2.{ -8, 0, 8} can't be an inequality of x because of -8.

3.{ -9, 1, 7} can't be an inequality of x because -9 isn't greater than x.

A rope is tied to the bottom of a hot air balloon as shown below. The rope makes an angle of 35 degrees with the ground distant

Serjik [45]

We have a right triangle. We know the hypotenuse (75 ft) and an angle of 35°. We need to find the opposite leg to the angle of 35° (h). The trigonometric function that relates the opposite leg to an angle with the hypotenuse is sine:
sin 35° = (Opposite leg to 35°) / hypotenuse
sin 35° = h/(75 ft)

Solving for h:
(75 ft) sin 35°=h
h=75 sin 35° ft
h=75 (0.573576436) ft
h=43.01823270 ft
h=43 ft

Answer: T<span>he bottom of the balloon is 43 ft from the ground</span>

The answer and the work that was needed to solve it .

cupoosta [38]

First, you add up all the prices. 1.79 + 2.99 + 4.37 + 0.33 = 9.48. Then, you do 10.00 - 9.48 = 0.52 and that's your answer.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

a) The 90% confidence interval would be given (0.561;0.719).

b) $p_v =P(z>2.8)=1-P(z$

c) Using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we have enough evidence at this significance level to reject the null hypothesis. And on this case makes sense the claim that the proportion is higher than 0.5 or 50%.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=100 represent the random sample taken

X=64 represent were in favor of firing the coach

$\hat p=\frac{64}{100}=0.64$ estimated proportion for were in favor of firing the coach

$p_o=0.5$ is the value that we want to test since the problem says majority

$\alpha$ represent the significance level (no given, but is assumed)

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

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

p= population proportion of Americans for were in favor of firing the coach

Part a

The confidence interval would be given by this formula

$\hat p \pm z_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n}}$

For the 90% confidence interval the value of $\alpha=1-0.9=0.1$ and $\alpha/2=0.05$ , with that value we can find the quantile required for the interval in the normal standard distribution.

$z_{\alpha/2}=1.64$

And replacing into the confidence interval formula we got:

$0.64 - 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{100}}=0.561$

$0.64 + 1.64 \sqrt{\frac{0.64(1-0.64)}{100}}=0.719$

And the 90% confidence interval would be given (0.561;0.719).

Part b

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion exceeds 50%(Majority). :

Null Hypothesis: $p \leq 0.5$

Alternative Hypothesis: $p >0.5$

We assume that the proportion follows a normal distribution.

This is a one tail upper test for the proportion of union membership.

The One-Sample Proportion Test is "used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly (different,higher or less) from a hypothesized value $p_o$ ".

Check for the assumptions that he sample must satisfy in order to apply the test

a)The random sample needs to be representative: On this case the problem no mention about it but we can assume it.

b) The sample needs to be large enough

$np_o =100*0.64=64>10$

$n(1-p_o)=100*(1-0.64)=36>10$

Calculate the statistic

The statistic is calculated with the following formula:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o(1-p_o)}{n}}}$

On this case the value of $p_o=0.5$ is the value that we are testing and n = 100.

$z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{100}}}=2.8$

The p value for the test would be:

$p_v =P(z>2.8)=1-P(z$

Part c

Using the significance level assumed $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v$ so we have enough evidence at this significance level to reject the null hypothesis. And on this case makes sense the claim that the proportion is higher than 0.5 or 50%.
