Answer:

p = 0.07

p-hat = 0.035

p0 = 0.07

p-value = 0.003

Step-by-step explanation:

p = population parameter, in this case, the rate of infestations across all trees in the forest

p-hat = test statistic, in this case, the rate of infestations found in the sample of trees, i.e. those in Doug's backyard

p0 = the null hypothesis, in this case, the rate of infestations within the forest is correctly evaluated at 0.07 or 7%

p-value = the likelihood any difference between p and p-hat is down to chance

In this case 0.003 as the p-value means there is only 0.3% probability of our statistic value of 0.035 being down to variability and chance meaning it is 99.7% likely that there is some reason behind this difference;

We would accept the alternative hypothesis which says the current parameter value, 0.07, is in fact incorrect (either too high or too low, in this case, likely too high).

Answer:

The median is marked at 161cm instead of 162cm.

The right part of the box (the upper quartile) is marked at 172cm, while the interquartile range is 17cm, so the upper quartile should be at 154cm + 17cm = 171cm.

Suppose you draw a card from a well-shuffled deck of 52 cards. What is the probability of drawing a 5 or a queen?

goldfiish [28.3K]

A 5 or a queen

52 cards per deck
each card repeats 4 times

a 5 or a queen
there are four 5's and four queens
4+4=8

probablity=desiredoutcomes/totalpossible
probablity=8/52
probablity=4/26
probablity=2/13

On a coordinate plane, a line is drawn from point C to point D. Point C is at (negative 1, 4) and point D is at (2, 0). Point C

Answer:

distance = 5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we can start by plotting the two points you were provided with (see attached picture). This will help us visualize the problem better.

Now, we need to find the distance between those two points, so in order to do so we can use the distance formula:

$distance = \sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^{2}+(y_{2}-y_{1})^{2}}$

in this case the x's and y's are given by the given points, since they are written as ordere pairs. And ordered pairs are written in the form (x,y). So for Point C:

C=(-1,4)

$x_{1}=-1$
