A professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their class

KIM [24]

Answer:

We conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes at 0.01 level of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a professor wishes to discover if seniors skip more classes than freshmen. Suppose he knows that freshmen skip 2% of their classes.

He randomly samples a group of seniors and out of 2521 classes, the group skipped 77.

Let p = percentage of seniors who skip their classes.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : p $\leq$ 2% {means that seniors skip less than or equal to 2% of their classes}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p > 2% {means that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z proportion statistics;

T.S. = $\frac{\hat p-p}{{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p$ = sample proportion of seniors who skipped their classes = $\frac{77}{2521}$

n = sample of classes = 2521

So, test statistics = $\frac{\frac{77}{2521} -0.02}{{\sqrt{\frac{\frac{77}{2521}(1-\frac{77}{2521})}{2521} } } } }$

= 3.08

The value of the test statistics is 3.08.

Now at 0.01 significance level, the z table gives critical value of 2.3263 for right-tailed test. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 2.3263 < 3.08, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that seniors skip more than 2% of their classes.

Mrs. McClure's famous peanut butter cookies call for 1 cup of peanut butter for every 1 2 of a cup of oil. Today, she wants to m

bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 2 cup of butter

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Amount of butter need for 1/2 cup of oil = 1 cup

Find:

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil

Computation:

Amount of butter need for 1/2 cup of oil = 1 cup

1 cup butter = 1/2 cup oil

So,

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 1 / [1/2]

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 1 / [0.5]

Amount of butter need for 1 cup of oil = 2 cup of butter

Para decorar una pared se disponen de tiras de papel azules de 15 cm, verdes de 20 cm, y rojas de 25 cm. En la pared se quiere a

den301095 [7]

Answer:

a) Smallest line that can be made with each color = 300 cm

b) Total strips should be used = 47 strips

c) Total strips used of blue color = 20

Total strips used of green color = 15

Total strips used of red color = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Given - To decorate a wall, there are 15 cm blue, 20 cm green, and 25 cm red strips of paper. On the wall you want to build three lines of the same size, one of each color and without cutting any strip.

To find - a) How long is the smallest line that can be made with each color?

b) How many strips should be used?

c) How many of each color?

Proof -

a)

For the smallest line that can be made with each color, we just have to find the lcm (least common multiple) of the 3 srtips.

Firstly,

Decompose the 3 strips to its prime factors , we get

15 = 3×5

20 = 2²×5

25 = 5²

So,

The Lcm(15, 20, 25) = 3×2²×5² = 3×4×25 = 300

∴ we get

Smallest line that can be made with each color = 300 cm

b)

Now,

Total strips used = 300 cm

Strips used by 15 cm blue = $\frac{300}{15}$ = 20 strips

Strips used by 20 cm green = $\frac{300}{20}$ = 15 strips

Strips used by 25 cm red = $\frac{300}{25}$ = 12 strips

So,

Total strips should be used = 20 + 15 + 12 = 47 strips

c)

Total strips used of blue color = 20

Total strips used of green color = 15

Total strips used of red color = 12

Hello does anyone know how to solve this?

Radda [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer: 2 ^ -4 ( = 1/16)

Discussion:

- 4 log {8} 2 {8} is used instead of subscript notation

Basic property of logarithms is that exponents become multipliers and vice versa:

-4 log {8} 2 = log {8} (2^ -4)

Thank you,

MrB
