Answer:

-1.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a  publisher reports that 45% of their readers own a laptop. A marketing executive wants to test the claim that the percentage is actually different from the reported percentage.

Sample size n =190

Sample proportion p = 0.41

H_0: p = 0.45\\H_a: p \neq 0.45

(Two tailed test )

Assuming H0 to be true

std error = \sqrt{pq/n} =\sqrt{0.45*0.55/155} \\=0.0400

p difference = -0.04

Test statistic = p differencce/std error

= -1

Hence test statistic is -1.00

Samuel has 3/4 ton of mulch to spread equally in 8 square yards. How many tons of mulch will be spread in each square yard
Vikki [24]

Answer:

0.09375 tons

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, it is given that Samuel has 3/4 tons of mulch i.e. 0.75 tons of mulch.

Again it is given that Samuel has to spread equally this amount of mulch in 8 square yards of the plot.

Since the mulch is spread uniformly, then we can say that in each square yard of the plot (0.75/8) = 0.09375 tons of mulch is been spread.

Therefore, 0.09375 tons of mulch will be spread in each square yard. (Answer)
