Female athletes at the University of Colorado, Boulder, have a long-term graduation rate of 67% (Source: Chronicle of Higher Edu
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Yes, we can assume that the percent of female athletes graduating from the University of Colorado is less than 67%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find p-value first:

z statistic = (p⁻ - p0) / √[p0 x (1 - p0) / n]

p⁻ = X / n = 21 / 38 = 0.5526316

the alternate hypothesis states that p-value must be under the normal curve, i.e. the percent of female athletes graduating remains at 67% 

H1: p < 0.67 

z = (0.5526316 - 0.67) / √[0.67 x (1 - 0.67) / 38] = -0.1173684 / 0.076278575

z = -1.538681 

using a p-value calculator for  z = -1.538681, confidence level of 5%

p-value = .062024, not significant

Since p-value is not significant, we must reject the alternate hypothesis and retain the null hypothesis.

A triangle has sides with lengths of 4 inches, 14 inches, and 17 inches. Is it a right triangle?
irga5000 [103]
Yes it is because 2 sides would be the legs while 1 side is the hyptonuese so in this case 4 is a leg and 14 and 17 is the hyptonuese

The numbers of pages in the books in a library follow a normal distribution. If the mean number of pages is 180 and the standard
laiz [17]

Answer:

option B.

About 16% of the books have fewer than 150 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with a normal distribution

68.27% of the values will fall in the range with the standard deviation

(180-30 , 180+30) = (150, 210)

Approximately 15.86% of the values will be higher than 210

and the rest 15.86% will be lower than 150

So the correct answer is option B.

About 16% of the books have fewer than 150 pages

What is the sum of the difference?
Alona [7]

Answer:

A. 9x^4 and 3x^5y

Step-by-step explanation:

there are two ways to solve this:

first way:

You can solve this my substituting numbers for x and y in this case i used 2 for x and 3 for y and see which one is equal to the original equations

the second way is the regular way

when you add or subtract numbers with variables and exponents you want to add the constants and add the exponents in this case 5x^{4} +4x^2 is the same as (5x+4x)^(4+4) = 9x^4and you can do the same process for subtraction

12x^{5}y-9x^5 y\\(12x-9x)^(5+5)*y= 3x^5y

In the △ABC, the height AN = 24 in, BN = 18 in, AC = 40 in. Find AB and BC. Consider all possible cases. Case 1 : N∈BC, AB = __,
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

Case 1:

AB = 30

BC = 50

Case 2:

AB = 15.9

BC = 36.7

Case 3: Not possible

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for illustration of each case

Required

Find AB and BC

Case 1:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

AB^2 = AN^2 + BN^2

This gives:

AB^2 = 24^2 + 18^2

AB^2 = 576 + 324

AB^2 = 900

Take square roots of both sides

AB = \sqrt{900

AB = 30

To calculate BC, we consider ANC, where:

AC^2 = AN^2 + NC^2

40^2 = 24^2 + NC^2

1600 = 576 + NC^2

Collect like terms

NC^2 = 1600 - 576

NC^2 = 1024

Take square roots

NC = \sqrt{1024

NC = 32

So:

BC = NC + BN

BC = 32 + 18

BC = 50

Case 2:

Using Pythagoras theorem in ANB, we have:

AN^2 = AB^2 + BN^2

This gives:

24^2 = AB^2 + 18^2

576 = AB^2 + 324

Collect like terms

AB^2 = 576 - 324

AB^2 = 252

Take square roots of both sides

AB = \sqrt{252

AB = 15.9

To calculate BC, we consider ABC, where:

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

40^2 = 252 + BC^2

1600 = 252 + BC^2

Collect like terms

BC^2 = 1600 - 252

BC^2 = 1348

Take square roots

BC = \sqrt{1348

BC = 36.7

Case 3:

This is not possible because in ANC

The hypotenuse AN (24) is less than AC (40)
