The U.S. and many other countries have recently tightened airport security. A sociologist is interested in estimating the propor

melisa1 [442]

Answer:

0.0073 < 0.05, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conduct a test to determine whether the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

This means that the null hypothesis is: $H_{0}: p = 0.7$

And the alternate hypothesis is: $H_{a}: p > 0.7$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 0.7, \sigma = \sqrt{0.7*0.3}$

The sociologist found that 375 of the 500 travelers randomly selected and interviewed indicated that the airports were safe.

This means that $n = 500, X = \frac{375}{500} = 0.75$

Value of the z-statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{0.75 - 0.7}{\frac{\sqrt{0.7*0.3}}{\sqrt{350}}}$

$z = 2.44$

P-value of the test:

Probability of z being larger than 2.44, that is, a proportion larger than 0.75.

This is, looking at the z-table, 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z = 2.44. S

Z = 2.44 has a pvalue of 0.9927

1 - 0.9927 = 0.0073

0.0073 < 0.05, which means that we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the true proportion of interest is higher than 0.7.

Eugene noticed the temperature had dropped by 8 degrees from 17. What was the new temperature?

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

9 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Initial temperature : 17 degrees

temperature change = reduction by 8 degrees (i.e - 8 degrees)

hence the final temperature

= initial temperature + temperature change

= 17 + (-8)

= 17 - 8

= 9 degrees
