. A study was done on the proportion of cities that have private refuse collectors. The student wants the margin of error to be

within 0.10 of the population proportion, the desired level of confidence is 90%, and no estimate is available for the population proportion. What is the required sample size? (Hint: Since, no estimate is available for the population proportion, use 0.5].

Answer: 68

Step-by-step explanation:

As per given , we have

Margin of error : E= 0.10

Critical z-value for 90% confidence interval : z_{\alpha/2}=1.645

Since , the estimate of true proportion is unknown , then

The formula to find the sample size :-

n=0.25(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2\\\\ n=0.25(\dfrac{1.645}{0.10})^2\\\\ n=67.650625\approx68

The required minimum sample size= 68

If I plan to run 400 yards and I have completed 80%, how many yards do I have left?
Dimas [21]

Answer:

You have 80 yards left to run.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we first must realize that if you have completed 80% of the run, that you have 20% left (this is because 100%-80% = 20%).  

Next, we must find 20% of 400 yards.  We must remember that in math, the word "of" represents multiplication.  We also know that 20% = 20/100 = 0.2.

To find 20% of 400 yards, we can perform the following operation:

20% * 400

0.2 * 400

80

Therefore, you have 80 yards left.

Hope this helps!

What are the hypotheses for testing to see if a correlation is statistically significant?
Andrew [12]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For testing of significance of correlation coefficient denoted by r, we create hypotheses in three ways

They are one tailed, two tailed.  One tailed can be stated as right tailed and also left tailed.

The null hypothesis would normally be as r=0

Verbally we can say this there is no association between the dependent and independent variable (linear)

Against this alternate hypothesis is created as

either r not equal to 0

or r>0 or r<0

If r not equal to 0, we say two tailed hypothesis test

If r>0 is alternate hypothesis, it is right tailed test

If r<0 is alternate hypothesis, then it is left tailed test.
