The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of an adjoining community. A political study took a sample of 1600 vo

ters in the town and found that 38% of the residents favored annexation. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is under 41%. Testing at the 0.02 level, is there enough evidence to support the strategist's claim? Step 2 of 7: Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

Test statistic = -2.44

There is enough evidence to support the strategist's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : p = 0.41

H1 : p < 0.41

pˆ = 0.38

Test statistic :

z=pˆ−p/√p(1−p)/n

Z = (0.38 - 0.41) / √(0.41(1 - 0.41) / 1600

Z = - 0.03 / √0.0001511875

Z = - 0.03 / 0.0122958

Z = - 2.4399

Test statistic = -2.44

The Pvalue :

P(Z < -2.44) = 0.0073436

α - level = 0.02

If Pvalue < α ; Reject H0

0.0073436 < 0.02 ; We reject H0

Since Pvalue < α ; Hence, There is enough evidence to support the strategist's claim.

Duo makes 65% percent of his dumplings with vegetarian fillings. What fraction of Duo's dumplings have vegetarian fillings?
iren2701 [21]
Per cent means for every hundred, so we just put 65 into a fraction with 100. However, percents are already out of 100. So for every 100 dumplings, 65 are vegetarian.

Suppose that you want to estimate average income in a population. If the standard deviation of income in the population is $1,00
Alik [6]

Answer:

2401

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we want to estimate average income in a population.

The standard deviation of income in the population is $1,000

We want confidence interval around our estimate to be +/- $40

i.e Margin of error = 40

We know that margin of error = Std error * Z critical for 95%

i.e. 40 = 1.96 * std error

Std error = \frac{std dev}{\sqrt{n} } \\=\frac{1000}{\sqrt{n} }

Together we get

40=1.96(\frac{1000}{\sqrt{n} } )\\\sqrt{n} =\frac{1000*1.96}{40} \\=49\\n=2401\\

Moritz bought an ottoman that is cube shaped with side lengths of 2 feet. Its lid is removable for storing blankets and pillows.
jeka57 [31]

Answer: Statements that are true are: ()The amount of storage for pillows and blankets is measured in cubic feet and ()The volume of the cube is 8 ft3.

Step-by-step explanation: A cube is a box-shaped solid object that has 6 identical square faces. Volume is the amount of space a enclosed object occupies.

The volume of an ottoman is the amount of storage for pillows and blankets and since it's calculated, in this case, as:

V = length*width*depth, and the unit is in feet, <em><u>Volume's Unit</u></em> is in Cubic Feet. That statement is correct.

The lid is a square. The area is: A = 2*2 = 4 <u>square</u> ft, so this statement is incorrect.

The perimeter of the top is: P = 4*2 = 8 feet, but it's not the length of the child safety bumper, so this statement is false.

An ottoman is a cube of side lengths 2 feet, so its volume will be V=8ft3.

Therefore, the correct statements are:

  • The amount of storage for pillows and blankets is mesured in cubic feet;
  • The volume of the cube is 8ft3.

What is the equation of this line in standard form?
Fiesta28 [93]

keeping in mind that standard form for a linear equation means

• all coefficients must be integers, no fractions

• only the constant on the right-hand-side

• all variables on the left-hand-side, sorted

• "x" must not have a negative coefficient

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{-3}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{\frac{1}{2}}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) \\\\\\ \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{(-1)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{\frac{1}{2}}-\underset{x_1}{(-3)}}}\implies \cfrac{2+1}{\frac{1}{2}+3}\implies \cfrac{3}{\frac{1+6}{2}}\implies \cfrac{\frac{3}{1}}{~~\frac{7}{2}~~}\implies \cfrac{3}{1}\cdot \cfrac{2}{7}\implies \cfrac{6}{7}

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{(-1)}=\stackrel{m}{\cfrac{6}{7}}[x-\stackrel{x_1}{(-3)}]\implies y+1=\cfrac{6}{7}(x+3) \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{multiplying both sides by }\stackrel{LCD}{7}}{7(y+1)=7\left( \cfrac{6}{7}(x+3) \right)}\implies 7y+7=6(x+3)\implies 7y+7=6x+18 \\\\\\ 7y=6x+11\implies -6x+7y=11\implies 6x-7y=-11
