Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of trials =600.

Number of heads = 342.

Number of tails = 258

On tossing a coin,

$let \: E_1 \: and \: E_2 \: be \: the \: events \: of \: getting \: a \: head$

and of getting a tail respectively.

then,

$1) \: P \: (getting \: a \: head) = \: P \: (E_1)$

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{number \: of \: heads \: coming \: up}{total \: number \: of \: trials}$

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{342}{600} = \frac{57}{100}$

$\longrightarrow \: 0.57$

$\red{ \rule{150pt}{3pt}} \:$

$2) P (getting \: a\: tail) =P (E_2)$

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{number \: of \: tails \: coming \: up}{total \: number \: of \: trials}$

$\longrightarrow \: \frac{258}{600} = \frac{43}{100}$

$\longrightarrow \: 0.43$

A study conducted by the Center for Disease Control that asked 15,000 students about

BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

The sampling distribution of $\hat p$ is: $\hat p\sim N(p,\ \frac{p(1-p)}{n})$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Central limit theorem, if from an unknown population large samples of sizes n > 30, are selected and the sample proportion for each sample is computed then the sampling distribution of sample proportion follows a Normal distribution.

The mean of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\mu_{\hat p}=p$

The standard deviation of this sampling distribution of sample proportion is:

$\sigma_{\hat p}=\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}$

The study was conducted using the data from 15,000 students.

Since the sample size is so large, i.e. n = 15000 > 30, the central limit theorem is applicable to approximate the sampling distribution of sample proportions.

So, the sampling distribution of $\hat p$ is: $\hat p\sim N(p,\ \frac{p(1-p)}{n})$ .

For the following hypothesis test, determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Also, classify the hypothesis test as two-tail

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

Option B:

$H_0: \mu = 22.1$

$H_a: \mu \neq 22.1$

Classification:

The hypothesis test is Two-tailed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this country is 22.1 months.

This means that the null hypothesis is that the mean is of 22.1 months, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 22.1$

A hypothesis test is to be performed to determine whether the mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this city differs from the national mean of 22.1 months.

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if this mean is different of 22.1, that is:

$H_a: \mu \neq 22.1$

Which means that the answer is given by option b).

Which of the following is the correct classification of the hypothesis test?

We test if the mean is different from a value, which means that the hypothesis test is Two-tailed.
