Results from previous studies showed 79% of all high school seniors from a certain city plan to attend college after graduation.

A random sample of 200 high school seniors from this city reveals that 162 plan to attend college. Does this indicate that the percentage has increased from that of previous studies? Test at the 5% level of significance. What is your conclusion? A. Cannot determine B. More seniors are going to college C. Reject H0. There is enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of students planning to go to college is now greater than .79. D. Do not reject H0. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of students planning to go to college is greater than .79.

Answer:

Do not reject H_0. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of students planning to go to college is greater than 0.79.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random sample reveals that 162/200 = 0.81 = 81% plan to attend college, so we are tempted to try and refute the 79% established by previous studies.

As the sample consists of “yes-no” answers, it can be modeled with a binomial distribution.

Now let's establish the hypothesis.

H_0: The probability that a school senior from a certain city plan attends college after graduation is 0.79 (79%)

H_a:  The probability that a school senior from a certain city plan attends college after graduation is greater than 0.79

The binomial distribution we are going to use is the model for H_0

P(k,200)=\binom{200}{k}0.79^k0.21^{200-k}

where P(k,200) is the probability of getting exactly k “yes” in 200 interviews.

Since the level of significance is 5% and in the sample we got 162 “yes”, we want to show that  

S = P(1,200) + P(2,200)+P(3,300)+...+P(162,200) is greater than 0.95.

If it is, then we can refute the null hypothesis and accept 0.81 as the new probability.

We can use either a <em>cumulative binomial distribution</em> table or the computer and we find that S=0.7807.

Since S<0.95 we cannot refute H_0

<em>It is worth noticing the the critical value here is 167. That is to say, if we had obtained 167 “yes” instead of 162, we could have rejected the null. </em>

Given: O ∈ AB , ON is ∠ bisector of ∠AOC, OF is ∠ bisector of ∠COB, m∠FOB=70°. Find: m∠AON
Julli [10]

Answer:

AOC = 20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that FOB is 70 degrees, and COF is 90 degrees. So just add 70+90 and get 160 degrees. Then you subtract that from AOB which is 20 degrees.
