A TV station claims that 38% of the 6:00 - 7:00 pm viewing audience watches its evening news program. A consumer group believes

Elena L [17]

Answer:

$z=\frac{0.340 -0.38}{\sqrt{\frac{0.38(1-0.38)}{830}}}=-2.374$

$p_v =P(Z$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people that regularly watch the TV station’s news program is significantly less than 0.38 .

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation

n=830 represent the random sample taken

X=282 represent the people that regularly watch the TV station’s news program

$\hat p=\frac{282}{830}=0.340$ estimated proportion of people that regularly watch the TV station’s news program

$p_o=0.38$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level

Confidence=95% or 0.95

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

2) Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the proportion is less than 0.38:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.38$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.38$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statisitc, and the is given by:

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

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

3) Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.340 -0.38}{\sqrt{\frac{0.38(1-0.38)}{830}}}=-2.374$

4) Statistical decision

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.

The significance level provided $\alpha=0.05$ . The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.

Since is a left tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we have $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of people that regularly watch the TV station’s news program is significantly less than 0.38 .

For a sequence an=an-1+an-2 and a1=1, a2=2, find its first four terms<br>

ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

3, 5, 8, 13

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = aₙ₋₁ + aₙ₋₂

a₃ = a₂ + a₁ = 2 + 1 = 3

a₄ = a₃ + a₂ = 3 + 2 = 5

a₅ = a₄ + a₃ = 5 + 3 = 8

a₆ = a₅ + a₄ = 8 + 5 = 13

Answer:

y = -0.85 + 0.09x; $49.82

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Calculate Σx, Σy, Σxy, and Σx²

The calculation is tedious but not difficult.

$\begin{array}{rrrr}\mathbf{x} & \mathbf{y} & \mathbf{xy} & \mathbf{x^{2}}\\526 & 52.08 & 27394.08 & 276676\\625& 59.00 & 36875.00 &390625\\589 & 56.12 & 33054.68 & 346921\\409 & 25.72 & 10519.48 & 167281\\489 & 34.12& 16684.68 & 293121\\500 & 53.00 & 26500.00 &250000\\906 & 76.48 & 71102.88 & 820836\\251 &26.08 & 6546.08 & 63001\\595 & 50.60 & 30107.00 & 354025\\719 & 68.52 & 49265.88 & 516961\\\mathbf{5609} & \mathbf{503.72} &\mathbf{308049.76} & \mathbf{3425447}\\\end{array}$

2. Calculate the coefficients in the regression equation

$a = \dfrac{\sum y \sum x^{2} - \sum x \sum xy}{n\sum x^{2}- \left (\sum x\right )^{2}} = \dfrac{503.7 \times 3425447 - 5609 \times 308049.76}{10 \times 3425447- 5609^{2}}\\\\= \dfrac{1725466163 - 1727851103.84}{34254470 - 31460881} = -\dfrac{2384941}{2793589}= \mathbf{-0.8537}$

$b = \dfrac{n\sumx y - \sum x \sumxy}{n\sum x^{2}- \left (\sum x\right )^{2}} = \dfrac{3080498 - 2825365.48}{2793589} = \dfrac{255132}{2793589} = \mathbf{0.09133}$

To two decimal places, the regression equation is

y = -0.85 + 0.09x

3. Prediction

If x = 563,

y = -0.85 + 0.09x = -0.85 + 0.09 × 563 = -0.85 + 50.67 = $49.82

(If we don't round the regression equation to two decimal places, the predicted value is $50.56.)
