Answer:

5 more games to be won for the 50% success rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number games played = 500

Number of successful games = 49% of 500

                                                 = 500 × \frac{49}{100}

                                                 = 245

Number of successful games for the success of 50% = 500 × \frac{50}{100}

                                                                                        = 250

Therefore, number of game you have to win more = 250 - 245

                                                                                    = 5 games

Use the normal distribution and the given sample results to complete the test of the given hypotheses. Assume the results come f
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43  

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=75 represent the random sample taken

\hat p=0.64 estimated proportion of interest

p_o=0.5 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

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true proportion is higher than 0.5:  

Null hypothesis:p =0.5  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.5  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

z=\frac{0.64 -0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(1-0.5)}{75}}}=2.43  

Now we can calculate the p value with the following probability:

p_v =P(z>2.43)=0.0075 \approx 0.008  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true proportion for this case is higher than 0.5

You are dealt one card from a standard 52-card deck. Find the probability of being dealt an ace or a 6.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

2/13

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there's 4 of each card in the deck this means that there're 4 sixes and 4 aces, so 8 cards in a 52 card deck gives the problem 8/52 which equals 2/13
