Answer:
The claim that needs to be tested is that the proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing truly exceeds the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences. This can be expressed as the population proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing is significantly higher than 0.5.
This is a hypothesis test for a population proportion.
The test will have null and alternative hypothesis:
[tex]H_0: \pi=0.5\\\\H_a:\pi>0.5[/tex]
Test statistic z = 0.972
P-value = 0.166
At a significance level of 0.05, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing truly exceeds the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have to construct a hypothesis test for the population proportion. We need to test the claim that the proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing truly exceeds the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences.
As the survey is done as a yes/no question, the null hypothesis would state that the amount of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing is not significantly different from the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences. That can be expressed as the population proportion equals 0.5, so both proportions are equal.
The alternative hypothesis would state that the proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing truly exceeds the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences. This could be expressed as the population proportion significantly bigger than 0.5.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are written:
[tex]H_0: \pi=0.5\\\\H_a:\pi>0.5[/tex]
The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.
The sample has a size n=209.
The sample proportion is p=0.536.
[tex]p=X/n=112/209=0.536[/tex]
The standard error of the proportion is:
[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5*0.5}{209}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.001196}=0.035[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.536-0.5-0.5/209}{0.035}=\dfrac{0.034}{0.035}=0.972[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z>0.972)=0.166[/tex]
As the P-value (0.166) is greater than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of people who prefer mechanical methods of water sanitizing truly exceeds the proportion of people who have no sanitizing methods preferences.

Answer:
There are 10 teams.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the question wants at least 48 swimmers so any numbers above 47 are counted.
In this diagram, there are 10 teams consisting 48 swimmers and above, 48, 52, 53, 63, 76, 79, 82, 84, 85 and 86.
Answer:
10 teams have 48 or more swimmers.
Step-by-step explanation:
If we look at stem 4 there is one team with 48 members.
So counting from there we have:
1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 4
= 10 teams.
What is the area of the trapezoid below? Select one: a. 88 cm2 b. 44√3 cm2 c. 65 cm2 d. 36√3 cm2
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we are not given the height of the trapezoid, we can split this into a triangle and a rectangle. We find the area of each and then add them together. In order to do so, we must use Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length so that we can find the area.
a²+b²=c²
a²+4²=8²
a²+16=64
a²=48
a=√48
a=4√3
Now that we know the missing length of the triangle, we can find the area of the triangle and the rectangle.
Triangle
A=1/2bh
A=1/2(4)(4√3)
A=8√3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Rectangle
A=lw
A=7(4√3)
A=28√3
With our areas, we can add them together.
4√3+28√3=36√3 cm²
If a/b = c/d, which of the following is not true?
1) ad=bc
2) a/c=b/d
3) a+b/b=c+d/d
4) a/d=c/b
5) b/a=d/c
Answer:
Option 4 is not true
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex]\frac{a}{b}=\frac{c}{d}\\\\[/tex]
1)Cross multiply,
ad = bc
So, true
2) a/ c = b/d also true
3) a+b/b = c+d/d also true
For example:
[tex]\frac{1}{4}=\frac{2}{8}\\\\\frac{1+4}{4}=\frac{2+8}{8}\\\\\frac{5}{4}=\frac{10}{8}\\\\[/tex]
When simplifying 10/8, it is 5/4.
5) b/a = d/c is also true
Halfway through the season, a soccer player has made 15 penalty kicks in 19 attempts. Based on her performance to date, what is the relative frequency probability that she will make her next penalty kick?
Answer:
[tex]\dfrac{15}{19}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The soccer player so far has made 15 penalty kicks in 19 attempts.
Therefore:
Total Number of trials =19
Number of Successes =15
Therefore, the relative frequency probability that she will make her next penalty kick is:
[tex]=\dfrac{\text{Number of Successes}}{\text{Total Number of Trials}} \\=\dfrac{15}{19}[/tex]
The probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 12%. Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random. Complete parts (a) through (d). (a) Find the probability that all three have type B+ blood. The probability that all three have type B+ blood is nothing. (Round to six decimal places as needed.)
Answer:
The probability that all three have type B+ blood is 0.001728
Step-by-step explanation:
For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they have type B+ blood, or they do not. The probability of a person having type B+ blood is independent of any other person. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.
[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]
And p is the probability of X happening.
The probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 12%.
This means that [tex]p = 0.12[/tex]
Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random.
This means that [tex]n = 3[/tex]
Find the probability that all three have type B+ blood.
This is P(X = 3).
[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{3,3}.(0.12)^{3}.(0.88)^{0} = 0.001728[/tex]
The probability that all three have type B+ blood is 0.001728
In a study of the effectiveness of airbags in cars, 11,541 occupants were observed in car crashes with airbags available, and 41 of them were fatalities. Among 9,853 occupants in crashes with airbags not available, 52 were fatalities. (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the difference of the two population fatality rates. (please keep 4 decimal places throughout for accuracy) (b) Based on the confidence interval
Answer:
Please the read the answer below
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the 95% confidence interval for the difference of the two populations, you use the following formula (which is available when the population size is greater than 30):
CI = [tex](p_1-p_2)\pm Z_{\alpha/2}(\sqrt{\frac{p_1(1-p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{p_2(1-p_2)}{n_2}})[/tex] (1)
where:
p1: proportion of one population = 52/9853 = 0.0052
p2: proportion of the other population = 41/11541 = 0.0035
α: tail area = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05
Z_α/2: Z factor of normal distribution = Z_0.025 = 1.96
n1: sample of the first population = 52
n2: sample of the second population = 41
You replace the values of all parameters in the equation (1) :
[tex]CI =(0.0052-0.0035)\pm (1.96)(\sqrt{\frac{0.0052(1-0.0052)}{52}+\frac{0.0035(1-0.0035)}{41}})\\\\CI=0.0017\pm0.026[/tex]
By the result obtained in the solution, you can conclude that the sample is not enough, because the margin error is greater that the difference of proportion of each sample population.

Seven new employees, two of whom are married to each other, are to be assigned seven desks that are lined up in a row. If the assignment of employees to desks is made randomly, what is the probability that the married couple will have adjacent desks
Answer:
2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Seven employees can be arranged in 7! ways. n(S) = 7!
Two adjacent desks for married couple can be selected in 6 ways viz.,(1, 2), (2, 3), (3,4), (4, 5), (5,6),(6,7).
This couple can be arranged in the two desks in 2! ways. Other five persons can be arranged in 5! ways.
So, number of ways in which married couple occupy adjacent desks
= 6×2! x 5! =2×6!
so, the probability that the married couple will have adjacent desks
[tex]\frac{n(A)}{n(s)} =\frac{2\times6!}{7!} \\=\frac{2}{7}[/tex]
what are the possible values of x in 8x^2+4=-1 a. 2+-iroot/3 b. -1+-i/6 c.-1+-i/4 d.1+-i/4 e. 1+-i root 2/4
Answer:
x = ± i sqrt(5/8)
Step-by-step explanation:
8x^2+4=-1
Subtract 4 from each side
8x^2+4-4=-1-4
8x^2 = -5
Divide by 8
8/8x^2=-5/8
x^2 = -5/8
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(x^2) = ±sqrt(-5/8)
x = ±sqrt(-5/8)
x = ±sqrt(5/8) sqrt(-1)
x = ± i sqrt(5/8)

The 2003 Zagat Restaurant Survey provides food, decor, and service ratings for some of the top restaurants across the United States. For 15 top-ranking restaurants located in Boston, the average price of a dinner, including one drink and tip, was $48.60. You are leaving on a business trip to Boston and will eat dinner at three of these restaurants. Your company will reimburse you for a maximum of $50 per dinner. Business associates familiar with the restaurants have told you that the meal cost at 5 of the restaurants will exceed $50. Suppose that you randomly select three of these restaurants for dinner.
Required:
a. What is the probability that none of the meals will exceed the cost covered by your company?
b. What is the probability that one of the meals will exceed the cost covered by your company?
c. What is the probability that two of the meals will exceed the cost covered by your company?
d. What is the probability that all three of the meals will exceed the cost covered by your company?
Answer:
a. P(x=0)=0.2967
b. P(x=1)=0.4444
c. P(x=2)=0.2219
d. P(x=3)=0.0369
Step-by-step explanation:
The variable X: "number of meals that exceed $50" can be modeled as a binomial random variable, with n=3 (the total number of meals) and p=0.333 (the probability that the chosen restaurant charges mor thena $50).
The probabilty p can be calculated dividing the amount of restaurants that are expected to charge more than $50 (5 restaurants) by the total amount of restaurants from where we can pick (15 restaurants):
[tex]p=\dfrac{5}{15}=0.333[/tex]
Then, we can model the probability that k meals cost more than $50 as:
[tex]P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{3}{k} 0.333^{k} 0.667^{3-k}\\\\\\[/tex]
a. We have to calculate P(x=0)
[tex]P(x=0) = \dbinom{3}{0} p^{0}(1-p)^{3}=1*1*0.2967=0.2967\\\\\\[/tex]
b. We have to calculate P(x=1)
[tex]P(x=1) = \dbinom{3}{1} p^{1}(1-p)^{2}=3*0.333*0.4449=0.4444\\\\\\[/tex]
c. We have to calcualte P(x=2)
[tex]P(x=2) = \dbinom{3}{2} p^{2}(1-p)^{1}=3*0.1109*0.667=0.2219\\\\\\[/tex]
d. We have to calculate P(x=3)
[tex]P(x=3) = \dbinom{3}{3} p^{3}(1-p)^{0}=1*0.0369*1=0.0369\\\\\\[/tex]

A researcher predicts that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active. To test this, a research participant has her brain scanned while listening to music and solving math problems, and the brain area of interest has a percentage signal change of 58. From many previous studies with this same math problems procedure (but not listening to music), it is known that the signal change in this brain area is normally distributed with a mean of 35 and a standard deviation of 10. (a) Using the .01 level, what should the researcher conclude
Answer:
As the P-value (0.0107) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.
The claim is that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
[tex]H_0: \mu=35\\\\H_a:\mu> 35[/tex]
The significance level is 0.01.
The sample has a size n=1.
The sample mean is M=58.
The standard deviation of the population is known and has a value of σ=10.
We can calculate the standard error as:
[tex]\sigma_M=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{1}}=10[/tex]
Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:
[tex]z=\dfrac{M-\mu}{\sigma_M}=\dfrac{58-35}{10}=\dfrac{23}{10}=2.3[/tex]
This test is a right-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:
[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z>2.3)=0.0107[/tex]
As the P-value (0.0107) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.
The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.
There is not enough evidence to support the claim that listening to music while solving math problems will make a particular brain area more active.

[tex] \frac{1}{2} m - \frac{3}{4} n = 16 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m - \frac{3}{4} \times 8 = 16..( plug \: n = 8) \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m - 3 \times 2 = 16 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m - 6 = 16 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m = 16 + 6 \\ \\ \frac{1}{2} m = 22 \\ \\ m = 22 \times 2 \\ \\ m = 44[/tex]
The value of m in the given equation is equal to 3.
Given the following data:
n = 8To find the value of m in the given equation:
How to solve a word problem.In this exercise, you're required to determine the value of m in the given equation. Thus, we would translate the word problem into an algebraic equation.
[tex]\frac{1}{2m} -\frac{3}{4n} =16[/tex]
Substituting the value of n in the equation, we have;
[tex]\frac{1}{2m} -\frac{3}{4(8)} =16\\\\\frac{1}{2m} -\frac{3}{32} =16\\\\16m-32=16\\\\16m=16+32\\\\16m=48\\\\m=\frac{48}{16}[/tex]
m = 3.

The product of Holly's savings and 3 is 39.
Use the variable h to represent Holly's savings.
Answer:
3h = 39Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question.
Translate this sentence into an equation. The product of Holly's height and 3 is 39. Use the variable h to represent Holly's height.
Let holly's savings be h. If the product of Holly's savings and 3 is 39, this can be represented mathematically as h*3 = 39
To get holly's savings "h', we will divide both sides of the equation by 3
h*3 = 39
h*3/ 3= 39/3
h = 13*3/ 3
h = 13 * 3/3
h = 13*1
h = 13
Holly's savings is 13 and the required equation is 3h =39

Based on a poll, 40% of adults believe in reincarnation. Assume that 6 adults are randomly selected, and find the indicated probability. Complete parts (a) through (c) below.
a. What is the probability that exactly 5 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation? Round to 3 decimal places.
b. What is the probability that all of the selected adults believe in reincarnation?
c. What is the probability that at least 5 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation?
Answer:
a. 3.686 %
b. 0.41 %
c. 4.096%
Step-by-step explanation:
We make use of the binomial probability equation, which is as follows:
P = [n! / (n - r)! r!] p ^ r * q ^ (n - r)
where,
n total number samples = 6
r is the selected number, depends on each point (a, b, c)
p is the of believing in reincarnation = 0.40
q = 1 - p = 0.60
to. What is the probability that exactly 5 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation?
So we use r = 5
P = [6! / ((6 - 5)! * 5!)] * [0.40 ^ 5 * 0.60 ^ (6 - 5)]
P = 6 * 0.006144
P = 0.0368 = 3.686%
b. What is the probability that all of the selected adults believe in reincarnation?
So we use r = 6
P = [6! / ((6 - 6)! * 6!)] * [0.40 ^ 6 * 0.60 ^ (6 - 6)]
P = 1 * 0.004096
P = 0.004096 = 0.41%
c. What is the probability that at least 5 of the selected adults believe in reincarnation?
So we use r = 5 to 6
P (r = 5) = [6! / ((6 - 5)! * 5!)] * [0.40 ^ 5 * 0.60 ^ (6 - 5)]
P (r = 5) = 6 * 0.006144
P (r = 5) = 0.0368 = 3.686%
P (r = 6) = [6! / ((6 - 6)! * 6!)] * [0.40 ^ 6 * 0.60 ^ (6 - 6)]
P (r = 6) = 1 * 0.004096
P (r = 6) = 0.004096 = 0.41%
The total is the sum of all:
P (total) = 3.686% + 0.41%
P (total) = 4.096%

You deal a pile of cards, face down, from a standard 52-card deck. What is the least number of cards the pile must have before you can be assured that it contains at least five cards of the same suit
Answer:
we need at least 17 - card deck
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given :
We can attempt to solve the question by using pigeonhole principle;
"The pigeonhole principle posits that if more than n pigeons are placed into n pigeonholes some pigeonhole must contain more than one pigeon"
Thus; the minimum number of pigeon; let say at least n pigeons sit on at least one same hole among m hole can be represented by the formula:
m( n - 1 ) + 1
where ;
pigeons are synonymous to card
pigeonholes are synonymous to suits
So; m = 4 ; n = 5
∴ 4 (5 -1 ) + 1 ⇒ 4 (4) + 1
= 16 + 1
= 17
Hence; we need at least 17 - card deck
Suppose that the function g is defined, for all real numbers, as follows.
Answer:
g(-5) = 2
g(0) = -2
g(1) = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
g(-5) satisfies x <-2, since -5 is less than -2.
g(0) satisfies -2≤x≤1 since 0 is greater than 2 but less than 1. When we plug in 0 into (x+1)^2 -2, we get -2.
g(1) satisfies -2≤x≤1 since it says that x is less than OR EQUAL TO 1. We then plug in 1 into (x+1)^2 -2 and get 2.

Sandy borrowed 6709R.O from a bank to buy a piece of land. If the bank charges 12 1/3 % compounded each two months, what amount will she have to pay after 2 years and half? Also find the interest
paid by her.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the compound interest formula
[tex]A = P(1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]
A = final amount after t years
P = amount borrowed = Principal = 6709R
r = rate (in %) = 12 1/3%
n = number of times the interest is applied = 2 months
t = time the period elapsed = 2 1/2 years
[tex]A = 6709(1+\frac{\frac{37}{300} }{\frac{2}{12} } )^{\frac{2}{12} *\frac{5}{2} } \\A = 6709(1+0.1233/0.1667)^{2\0.41667} \\A = 6709(1+0.7397)^{2\0.41667} \\A = 6709(1.7397)^{2\0.41667} \\A = 6709(3.81195)\\A = 25,574.373[/tex]
She will have to pay 25,574.373R after 2 and a half years
interest paid by her = Amount - Principal

Plot the point (5, 5). Using a line tool, create AB with a length of 4 units from point A. Turn on the trace feature at point B, and move point B
around point A. keeping the length of AB fixed.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Plotting a point A and tracing a point B at 4 units from A results in a circle.
▪The locus of a point at equal distance from a fixed point is a circle.
▪Point A is (5,5) and length of AB is 4 units
This implies that the radius of circle is 4 units.
▪The point B can be swirled around A keeping the distance AB constant.
▪The resulting figure is a circle.
▪This circle is plotted and attached below.

The blood platelet counts of a group of women have a bell-shaped distribution with a mean of 255.4 and a standard deviation of 63.9. (All units are 1000 cells/muL.) Using the empirical rule, find each approximate percentage below. a. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts within 3 standard deviations of the mean, or between 63.7 and 447.1? b. What is the approximate percentage of women with platelet counts between 191.5 and 319.3?
Answer:
a) From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
b) [tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following properties for the random variable of interest "blood platelet counts"
[tex]\mu = 255.4[/tex] represent the mean
[tex]\sigma = 63.9[/tex] represent the population deviation
Part a
From the empirical rule we know that within 3 deviations from the mean we have 99.7% of the data
Part b
We want this probability:
[tex] P(191.5<X<319.5)[/tex]
We can find the number of deviations from the mean for the limits using the z score formula given by:
[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] z=\frac{191.5-255.4}{63.9}= -1[/tex]
[tex] z=\frac{319.3-255.4}{63.9}= 1[/tex]
So we have values within 1 deviation from the mean and using the empirical rule we know that we have 68% of the values for this case
A driver travels a distance of 119 miles between 09:50 and 11:35. Work out the average speed of the driver
Answer:
68 miles per hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The time taken for the driver to drive 119 miles is 105 minutes.
The average speed is equal to distance divided by the time taken.
105 minutes is equal to 1.75 hours.
[tex]S=119/1.75[/tex]
[tex]S =68[/tex]
The driver's average speed is 68 miles per hour.
Answer:
Speed = 68 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Distance = 119 miles
Time = 1 hour 45 minutes = 1.75 hours
Required:
Speed = ?
Formula:
Average Speed = Total Distance Covered / Total Time Taken
Solution:
Speed = 119/1.75
Speed = 68 mph

if f(x) =2x-1 and g(x)=x^2-3x-2, fins (f+g)(x)
Answer:
[tex](f+g)(x)=x^2-x-3[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
If [tex]f(x)=2x-1[/tex], and [tex]g(x)=x^2-3x-2[/tex], then the addition [tex](f+g)(x)[/tex] equals:
[tex](f+g)(x)=2x-1+x^2-3x-2=x^2-3x+2x-2-1=x^2-x-3[/tex]
