Nearsightedness: It is believed that nearsightedness affects about 8% of all children. In a random sample of 194 children, 21 are nearsighted.
(a) What proportion of children in this sample are nearsighted?
(b) Construct hypotheses appropriate for the following question: do these data provide evidence that the 8% value is inaccurate?
(c) Given that the standard error of the sample proportion is 0.0195 and the point estimate follows a nearly normal distribution, calculate the test statistic (the Z statistic).
(d) What is the p-value for this hypothesis test?
(e) What is the conclusion of the hypothesis test?

Answer:

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of members in the committee = 15

= 8 men + 7 women

The probability of selecting a man in the committee

= 8/15

= 53%

The probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 3/8

= 37.5%

The probability that all three people on the subcommittee are men

= probability of selecting a man multiplied by the probability of selecting three men from eight men

= 53% x 37.5%

= 19.875%

= 20% approx.

This is the same as:

The probability of selecting 3 men from the 15 member-committee

= 3/15

= 20%

Answer:

11/36

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the probability that neither dice shows a 5 (also means the dice can show any number except 5- where there are 5 possible choices out of 6):

= 5/6 x 5/6

=25/36

If we subtract the probability that neither dice shows a 5, we can obtain the probability that at least 1 dice shows a 5- (either one of them is 5, or both of them is 5)

1- 25/36

=11/36

Answer:

Probability that first shirt is white and second shirt is gray if first shirt selected is set aside = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

3 white, 2 blue and 5 gray shirts are there.

To find:

Probability that first shirt is white and second shirt is gray if first shirt selected is set aside = ?

Solution:

Here, total number of shirts = 3+2+5 = 10

First of all, let us learn about the formula of an event E:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]

[tex]P(First\ White) = \dfrac{\text{Number of white shirts}}{\text {Total number of shirts left}}[/tex]

[tex]P(First\ White) = \dfrac{3}{10}[/tex]

Now, this shirt is set aside.

So, total number of shirts left are 9 now.

[tex]P(First\ White\ and\ second\ gray) = P(First White) \times P(Second\ Gray)\\\Rightarrow P(First\ White\ and\ second\ gray) = P(First White) \times \dfrac{\text{Number of gray shirts}}{\text{Total number of shirts left}}\\\\\Rightarrow P(First\ White\ and\ second\ gray) = \dfrac{3}{10} \times \dfrac{5}{9}\\\Rightarrow P(First\ White\ and\ second\ gray) = \dfrac{1}{2} \times \dfrac{1}{2}\\\Rightarrow P(First\ White\ and\ second\ gray) = \bold{\dfrac{1}{4} }[/tex]

So, the answer is:

Probability that first shirt is white and second shirt is gray if first shirt selected is set aside = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Answer:

a) $3700

b) $555

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the loan is 3 years.

The interest after 3 years is $444.

The rate of the Simple Interest is 4%.

Simple Interest is given as:

I = (P * R * T) / 100

where P = principal (amount borrowed)

R = rate

T = length of years

Therefore:

[tex]444 = (P * 3 * 4) / 100\\\\444 = 12P / 100\\\\12P = 444 * 100\\\\12P = 44400\\\\P = 44400 / 12\\[/tex]

P = $3700

She borrowed $3700

b) If the simple interest was 5%, then:

I = (3700 * 5 * 3) / 100 = $555

The interest would be $555.

The area of the surface above the region R is 4096π square units.

Given that:

The function: [tex]f(x, y) = 64 + x^2 - y^2[/tex]

The region R is the disk with a radius of 8 units [tex]x^2 + y^2 \le 64[/tex].

To find the area of the surface given by z = f(x, y) that lies above the region R, to calculate the double integral over the region R of the function f(x, y) with respect to dA.

The integral for the area is given by:

[tex]Area = \int\int_R f(x, y) dA[/tex]

To evaluate this integral, we need to set up the limits of integration for x and y over the region R, which is the disk cantered at the origin with a radius of 8 units.

Using polar coordinates, we can parameterize the region R as follows:

x = rcos(θ)

y = rsin(θ)

where r goes from 0 to 8, and θ goes from 0 to 2π.

Now, rewrite the integral in polar coordinates:

[tex]Area =\int\int_R f(x, y) dA\\Area = \int_0 ^{2\pi} \int_0^8(64 + r^2cos^2(\theta) - r^2sin^2(\theta)) \times r dr d \theta[/tex]

Now, we can integrate with respect to r first and then with respect to θ:

[tex]Area = \int_0^{2\pi} \int_0^8] (64r + r^3cos^2(\theta) - r^3sin^2(\theta)) dr d \theta[/tex]

Integrate with respect to r:

[tex]Area = \int_0^{2\pi}[(32r^2 + (1/4)r^4cos^2(\theta) - (1/4)r^4sin^2(\theta))]_0^8 d \theta\\Area = \int_0^{2\pi} (2048 + 256cos^2(\theta) - 256sin^2(\theta)) d \theta[/tex]

Now, we can integrate with respect to θ:

[tex]Area = [2048\theta + 128(sin(2\theta) + \theta)]_0 ^{2\pi}[/tex]

Area = 2048(2π) + 128(sin(4π) + 2π) - (2048(0) + 128(sin(0) + 0))

Area = 4096π + 128(0) - 0

Area = 4096π square units

So, the area of the surface above the region R is 4096π square units.

Answer:

z(c)  = - 1,64

We reject the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve a proportion test ( one tail-test ) left test

Normal distribution

p₀ = 63 %

proportion size  p = 51 %

sample size  n = 114

At 5% level of significance   α = 0,05, and with this value we find in z- table z score of z(c) = 1,64  ( critical value )

Test of proportion:

H₀     Null Hypothesis                        p = p₀

Hₐ    Alternate Hypothesis                p < p₀

We now compute z(s) as:

z(s) =  ( p - p₀ ) / √ p₀q₀/n

z(s) =( 0,51 - 0,63) / √0,63*0,37/114

z(s) =  - 0,12 / 0,045

z(s) = - 2,66

We compare z(s) and z(c)

z(s) < z(c)      - 2,66 < -1,64

Therefore as z(s) < z(c)  z(s) is in the rejection zone we reject the null hypothesis

Answer:

the probability that one parachute of the  five parachute is damaged is 0.156

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information;

Let consider X to be the altitude above the  ground that a parachute opens

Then; we can posit that the probability that the parachute is damaged is:

P(X ≤ 100 )

Given that the population mean μ = 155

the standard deviation σ = 30

Then;

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = ( \dfrac{X- \mu}{\sigma} \leq \dfrac{100- \mu}{\sigma})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = ( \dfrac{X- 155}{30} \leq \dfrac{100- 155}{30})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = (Z \leq \dfrac{- 55}{30})[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = (Z \leq -1.8333)[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = \Phi( -1.8333)[/tex]

From standard normal tables

[tex]P(X \leq 100 ) = 0.0334[/tex]

Hence; the probability of the given parachute damaged is 0.0334

Let consider Q to be the dropped parachute

Given that the number of parachute be n= 5

The probability that the parachute opens in each trail be  p = 0.0334

Now; the random variable Q follows the binomial distribution with parameters n= 5 and p = 0.0334

The probability mass function is:

Q [tex]\sim[/tex] B(5, 0.0334)

Similarly; the event that one parachute is damaged is :

Q ≥ 1

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P( Q < 1 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - P( Y = 0 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 - b(0;5; 0.0334 )

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = [tex]1 -(^5_0)* (0.0334)^0*(1-0.0334)^5[/tex]

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = [tex]1 -( \dfrac{5!}{(5-0)!}) * (0.0334)^0*(1-0.0334)^5[/tex]

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 1 -  0.8437891838

P( Q ≥ 1 ) = 0.1562108162

P( Q ≥ 1 ) [tex]\approx[/tex] 0.156

Therefore; the probability that one parachute of the  five parachute is damaged is 0.156

Answer:

49.923 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the car traveled 133 miles in h hours at an average speed of x mph.

That is, xh = 133.

We can also write this in terms of hours driven: h = 133/x.

If x was 30 mph faster, then h would be one hour less.

That is, (x + 30)(h - 1) = 133, or h - 1 = 133/(x + 30).

We can rewrite the latter equation as h = 133/(x + 30) + 1

We can then make a system of equations using the formulas in terms of h to find x:

h = 133/x = 133/(x + 30) + 1

133/x = 133/(x + 30) + (x + 30)/(x + 30)

133/x = (133 + x + 30)/(x + 30)

133 = x*(133 + x + 30)/(x + 30)

133*(x + 30) =  x*(133 + x + 30)

133x + 3990 = 133x + x^2 + 30x

3990 = x^2 + 30x

x^2 + 30x - 3990 = 0

Using the quadratic formula:

x = [-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)]/2a  

= [-30 ± √(30^2 - 4*1*(-3990))]/2(1)  

= [-30 ± √(900 + 15,960)]/2

= [-30 ± √(16,860)]/2

= [-30 ± 129.846]/2

= 99.846/2  -----------  x is miles per hour, and a negative value of x is neglected, so we'll use the positive value only)

= 49.923

Check if the answer is correct:

h = 133/49.923 = 2.664, so the car took 2.664 hours to drive 133 miles at an average speed of 49.923 mph.

If the car went 30 mph faster on average, then h = 133/(49.923 + 30) = 133/79.923 = 1.664, and 2.664 - 1 = 1.664.

Thus, we have confirmed that a car driving 133 miles at about 49.923 mph would have arrive precisely one hour earlier by going 30 mph faster

Answer:

In Table C, y vary inversely with x.

1×18 = 18

2×9 = 18

3×6 = 18

18 = 18 = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given four tables and asked to find out in which table y vary inversely with x.

We know that an inverse relation has a form given by

y = k/x

xy = k

where k must be a constant

Table A:

x     |      y

1     |      3

2     |     9

3     |    27

1×3 = 3

2×9 = 18

3×27 = 81

3 ≠ 18 ≠ 81

Hence y does not vary inversely with x.

Table B:

x     |      y

1     |     -5

2     |     5

3     |    15

1×-5 = -5

2×5 = 10

3×15 = 45

-5 ≠ 10 ≠ 45

Hence y does not vary inversely with x.

Table C:

x     |      y

1     |      18

2     |     9

3     |     6

1×18 = 18

2×9 = 18

3×6 = 18

18 = 18 = 18

Hence y vary inversely with x.

Table D:

x     |      y

1     |      4

2     |     8

3     |    12

1×4 = 4

2×8 = 16

3×12 = 36

4 ≠ 16 ≠ 36

Hence y does not vary inversely with x.

Answer:

The answer is 5th angle = [tex]\bold{42^\circ}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that pizza is divided into six unequal slices.

Largest slice has an angle of [tex]90^\circ[/tex].

He eats the pizza from largest to smallest.

Let the difference in angles in each slice = [tex]d^\circ[/tex]

1st angle = [tex]90^\circ[/tex]

2nd angle = 90-d

3rd angle = 90-d-d = 90 - 2d

4th angle = 90-2d-d = 90 - 3d

5th angle = 90-3d-d = 90 - 4d

6th angle = 90-4d -d = 90 - 5d

We know that the sum of all the angles will be equal to [tex]360^\circ[/tex] (The sum of all the angles subtended at the center).

i.e.

[tex]90+90-d+90-2d+90-3d+90-4d+90-5d=360\\\Rightarrow 540 - 15d = 360\\\Rightarrow 15d = 540 -360\\\Rightarrow 15d = 180\\\Rightarrow d = 12^\circ[/tex]

So, the angles will be:

1st angle = [tex]90^\circ[/tex]

2nd angle = 90- 12 = 78

3rd angle = 78-12 = 66

4th angle = 66-12 = 54

5th angle = 54-12 = 42

6th angle = 42 -12 = 30

So, the answer is 5th angle = [tex]\bold{42^\circ}[/tex]

Answer:

1.9375.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we must use PEMDAS.

The first things we take care of are parentheses and exponents.

Since there are no parentheses, we do exponents.

4^-1+8^-1÷1/2/3^3​

= [tex]\frac{1}{4} +\frac{1}{8} / 1/ 2/ 27[/tex]

= 1/4 + (1/8) / 1 * (27 / 2)

= 1/4 + (27 / 8) / 2

= 1/4 + (27 / 8) * (1 / 2)

= 1/4 + (27 / 16)

= 4 / 16 + 27 / 16

= 31 / 16

= 1.9375.

Answer:

8lb of the cheaper Candy

17.5lb of the expensive candy

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cheaper candy be x

let the costly candy be y

X+y = 25.5....equation one

2.2x +7.3y = 25.5(5.7)

2.2x +7.3y = 145.35.....equation two

X+y = 25.5

2.2x +7.3y = 145.35

Solving simultaneously

X= 25.5-y

Substituting value of X into equation two

2.2(25.5-y) + 7.3y = 145.35

56.1 -2.2y +7.3y = 145.35

5.1y = 145.35-56.1

5.1y = 89.25

Y= 89.25/5.1

Y= 17.5

X= 25.5-y

X= 25.5-17.5

X= 8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the summary of the given data;

After the second dose, 137 of 452 subjects in the experimental group (group 1) experienced drowsiness as a side effect.

Let consider [tex]p_1[/tex] to be the probability of those that experience the drowsiness in group 1

[tex]p_1[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{137}{452}[/tex]

[tex]p_1[/tex] = 0.3031

After the second dose, 31 of 99 subjects in the control group (group 2) experienced drowsiness as a side effect.

Let consider [tex]p_2[/tex] to be the probability of those that experience the drowsiness in group 1

[tex]p_2[/tex] = [tex]\dfrac{31}{99}[/tex]

[tex]p_2[/tex] = 0.3131

The objective is to be able to determine if the evidence suggest that a lower proportion of subjects in group 1 experienced drowsiness as a side effect than subjects in group 2 at the α=0.05 level of significance.

In order to do that; we have to state the null and alternative hypothesis; carry out our test statistics and make conclusion based on it.

So; the null and the  alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

[tex]H_o :p_1 =p_2[/tex]

[tex]H_a= p_1<p_2[/tex]

The test statistics is computed as follows:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{p_1-p_2}{\sqrt{p_1 *\dfrac{1-p_1}{n_1} +p_2 *\dfrac{1-p_2}{n_2}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.3031-0.3131}{\sqrt{0.3031 *\dfrac{1-0.3031}{452} +0.3131 *\dfrac{1-0.3131}{99}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{0.3031 *\dfrac{0.6969}{452} +0.3131 *\dfrac{0.6869}{99}} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{0.3031 *0.0015418 +0.3131 *0.0069384} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{\sqrt{4.6731958*10^{-4}+0.00217241304} }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{-0.01}{0.051378 }[/tex]

Z = - 0.1946

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05

From the standard normal table;

the critical value for Z(0.05) = -1.645

Decision Rule: Reject the null hypothesis if Z-value is lesser than the critical value.

Conclusion: We do not reject the null hypothesis because the Z value is greater than the critical value. Therefore, we cannot conclude that a lower proportion of subjects in group 1 experienced drowsiness as a side effect than subjects in group 2

Answer:

The required probability = 0.144

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the probability of making money is 60%, then the probability of losing money will be 100-60% = 40%

Now the probability we want to calculate is the probability of making money in the first two days and losing money on the third day.

That would be;

P(making money) * P(making money) * P(losing money)

Kindly recollect;

P(making money) = 60% = 60/100 = 0.6

P(losing money) = 40% = 40/100 = 0.4

The probability we want to calculate is thus;

0.6 * 0.6 * 0.4 = 0.144

Answer:

6x + y = -18

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is,

y - 6 = -6(x + 4)

We have to rewrite this equation in the form of Ax + By = C

Where A, B and C are the integers.

By solving the given equation,

y - 6 = -6x - 24 [Distributive property]

y - 6 + 6 = -6x - 24 + 6 [By adding 6 on both the sides of the equation]

y = -6x - 18

y + 6x = -6x + 6x - 18

6x + y = -18

Here A = 6, B = 1 and C = -18.

Therefore, 6x + y = -18 will be the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A sugar refinery has three processing plants, all receiving raw sugar in bulk. The amount of raw sugar (in tons) that one plant can process in one day can be modelled using an exponential distribution with mean of 4 tons for each of three plants. If each plant operates independently,a.Find the probability that any given plant processes more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day.b.Find the probability that exactly two of the three plants process more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day.c.How much raw sugar should be stocked for the plant each day so that the chance of running out of the raw sugar is only 0.05?

Answer: The mean (μ) of the plants is 4 tons. The probability density function of an exponential distribution is given by:

[tex]f(x)=\lambda e^{-\lambda x}\\But\ \lambda= 1/\mu=1/4 = 0.25\\Therefore:\\f(x)=0.25e^{-0.25x}\\[/tex]

a) P(x > 5) = [tex]\int\limits^\infty_5 {f(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^\infty_5 {0.25e^{-0.25x}} \, dx =-e^{-0.25x}|^\infty_5=e^{-1.25}=0.2865[/tex]

b) Probability that exactly two of the three plants process more than 5 tons of raw sugar on a given day can be solved when considered as a binomial.

That is P(2 of the three plant use more than five tons) = C(3,2) × [P(x > 5)]² × (1-P(x > 5)) = 3(0.2865²)(1-0.2865) = 0.1757

c) Let b be the amount of raw sugar should be stocked for the plant each day.

P(x > a) = [tex]\int\limits^\infty_a {f(x)} \, dx =\int\limits^\infty_a {0.25e^{-0.25x}} \, dx =-e^{-0.25x}|^\infty_a=e^{-0.25a}[/tex]

But P(x > a) = 0.05

Therefore:

[tex]e^{-0.25a}=0.05\\ln[e^{-0.25a}]=ln(0.05)\\-0.25a=-2.9957\\a=11.98[/tex]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

let's call X the length of the bedroom, Y the wide of the bedroom, A the length of the living room and B the wide of the living room

A living room is two times as long as the bedroom, so:

A = 2X

A living room is one and one-half times as wide as a bedroom, so:

B = 1.5Y

The amount of carpet needed for the living room is A*B and the amount of carpet needed by the bedroom is X*Y

So, AB in terms of XY is:

A*B = (2X)*(1.5Y) = 3(X*Y)

It means that the amount of c arpet needed for the living room is 3 times greater than the amount of carpet needed for the  bedroom.

Answer: C. 3.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Sample size n = 18

degree of freedom for numerator k = 2

degree of freedom for denominator = n - k - 1 = (18-2-1) = 15

level of significance = 5% = 5/100 = 0.05

From the table values,

the critical value of F at 0.05 significance level with (2, 18) degrees of freedom is 3.68

Therefore option C. 3.68 is the correct answer

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{x = 9}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

m = -1/3

b = 7

And y = 4 (Given)

Putting all of the givens in [tex]y = mx+b[/tex] to solve for x

=> 4 = (-1/3) x + 7

Subtracting 7 to both sides

=> 4-7 = (-1/3) x

=> -3 = (-1/3) x

Multiplying both sides by -3

=> -3 * -3 = x

=> 9 = x

OR

=> x = 9

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

m = -1/3

b = 7

Using slope-intercept form:

y = mx + b

m is slope, b is y-intercept.

y = -1/3x + 7

Solve for x:

Plug y as 4

4 = 1/3x + 7

Subtract 7 on both sides.

-3 = -1/3x

Multiply both sides by -3.

9 = x

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The class interval is simply the difference between the lower or upper class boundary or limit  of a class and the lower or upper class boundary or limit of the next class.

In this case for the class

$4 up to $7 18 and

$7 up to $10 36

The lower class boundary of the first class is $4 and the lower class boundary of the second class is $7

Answer:

AB = 2 sqrt(35)   (or 11.83 to two decimal places)

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to diagram.

ABO'P is a rectangle (all angles 90)

=>

PO'  =  AB

AB = PO' = sqrt(12^2-2^2) = sqrt(144-4) = sqrt(140) = 2sqrt(35)

using Pythagoras theorem.
