Given:
average height of a basketball player = 79 inches
μ = 70 inches
<span>σ = 3 inches
</span>
<span>standardize x to z = (x - μ) / σ </span>
<span>P(x > 79) = P( z > (79-70) / 3) </span>
<span>= P(z > 3) = 0.0013
0.0013 x 100% = 0.13%</span>


<span>0.13 % of the adult male population is taller than the average basketball player.</span>

Convert percentages to units.
100% - 20% = 80% = 0.8
100% - 25% = 75% = 0.75

Then multiply those together:
0.8*0.75=0.6=60%

100% - 60% = 40%. That's the overall price percentage reduction.


P.S. You can convert percentages to units by diving % by 100 for example 100% divided by 100 is equal to 1.
And vice versa aka multiply units by 100 and you get %, for example 0.8 times 100 is 80%

Using either the critical value rule or the p-value rule, if a one-sided null hypothesis for a single mean cannot be rejected at
KiRa [710]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using either the critical value rule or the p-value rule, a conclusion can be drawn at a level of significance (alpha)

The null hypothesis: u = hypothesized mean

Alternative hypothesis: u > u0 or u < u0 for a one tailed test

Alternative hypothesis for a two tailed test: u =/ u0

To draw a conclusion by failing to reject the null hypothesis as stated then: using critical value

Observed z score > critical z score for both the one and two tailed test.

Or using p value:

P-value > alpha for a one tailed test

P-value > alpha/2 for a two tailed test

Thus, if a one-sided null hypothesis for a single mean cannot be rejected at a given significance level, then the corresponding two-sided null hypothesis will also not be rejected at the same significance level.
