A gas company president for a particular city is interested in the proportion of homes heated by gas. Historically, the proportion of homes heated by gas has been 0.72. A sample of 75 homes was selected and it was found that 45 of them heat with gas. Perform the appropriate test of hypothesis, at level .05, to determine whether the proportion of home heated by gas has changed. Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

p-value (0.0208) is less than alpha = 0.05 reject H0.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the following data:

sample size = n = 75

x, the number to evaluate is 45

the sample proportion would be: x / n = 45/75

p * = 0.6

Now, the null and alternative hypotheses are:

H0: P = 0.72

Ha: P no 72

two tailed test

statistic tes = z = (p * - p) / [(p * (1-p) / n)] ^ (1/2)

replacing we have:

z = (0.6 - 0.72) / [(0.72 * (1-0.72) / 75)] ^ (1/2)

z = -2.31

p-vaule = 2 * p (z <-2.31)

using z table, we get:

p-vaule = 2 * (0.0104)

p-vaule = 0.0208

Therefore, p-value (0.0208) is less than alpha = 0.05 reject H0.

If the selected consumer is 70 years old, what is the probability that he/she likes crunchicles

Answers

Answer:

The probability that a selected consumer, given that is 70 years old, likes Crunchicles is 12.78%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

Three hundred consumers were surveyed about a new brand of snack food, Crunchicles. Their age groups and preferences are given in the table.

                           18–24 25–34 35–55 55 and over Total

Liked Crunchicles   4       9       3 23                  39

Disliked Crunchicles 5        27      28 64              124

No Preference         7        27          10 93                 137

Total                        16        63      41 180            300

One consumer from the survey is selected at random. If the selected consumer is 70 years old, what is the probability that he/she likes crunchicles .

If the consumer is 70 years old is included in the category "55 and over" from this survey. There are 180 subjects in that category.

The number that likes Crunchicles and are 55 and over is 23.

If we calculate the probability as the relative frequency, we have:

[tex]P(\text{L }|\text{ 55+})=\dfrac{P(\text{L \& 55+})}{P(5\text{5+})}=\dfrac{23}{180}=0.1278[/tex]

L: Likes Crunchicles.

The probability that a selected consumer, given that is 70 years old, likes Crunchicles is 12.78%.

When the health department tested private wells in a county for two impurities commonly found in drinking water, it found that 10% of the wells had neither impurity, 90% had impurity A, and 20% had impurity B. (Obviously, some had both impurities.) If a well is randomly chosen from those in the county, find the probability distribution for Y, the number of impurities found in the well.

Answers

Answer:

P(Y= 0) = 0.1

P(Y= 0) = 0.7

P(Y= 0) = 0.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Y be number of impurities that can be found in the well,

Let A denote the event that impurity A is randomly found in the well

Here Y can have three values i.e 0 , 1 and 2

✓It will take take the value of 0 when there is no impurity found in the well

✓It will take the value of 1 when when exactly one impurity vis found in the well

✓It will take the value of 2 when when both impurities vis found in the well

According to a report released by CIBC entitled "Women Entrepreneurs: Leading the Charge," the average age for Canadian businesswomen in 2008 was 41. In the report, there was some indication that researchers believed that this mean age will increase. Suppose now, a few years later, business researchers in Canada want to test to determine if, indeed, the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased. The researchers randomly sample 97 Canadian businesswomen and ascertain that the sample mean age is 43.4. From past experience, it is known that the population standard deviation is 8.95. Test to determine if the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased using a 1% level of significance. What is the p-value for this test? What is the decision? If the null hypothesis is rejected, is the result substantive?

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to a report released by CIBC entitled "Women Entrepreneurs: Leading the Charge," the average age for Canadian businesswomen in 2008 was 41.

The researchers randomly sample 97 Canadian businesswomen and ascertain that the sample mean age is 43.4. From past experience, it is known that the population standard deviation is 8.95.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean age of Canadian businesswomen.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 41      {means that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has decreased or remained same}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 41     {means that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z-test statistics because we know about population standard deviation;

                               T.S. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean age of Canadian businesswomen = 43.4

             [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = 8.95

             n = sample of Canadian businesswomen = 97

So, the test statistics  =  [tex]\frac{43.4-41}{\frac{8.95}{\sqrt{97} } }[/tex]

                                     =  2.64

The value of z test statistic is 2.64.

Also, P-value of the test statistics is given by;

             P-value = P(Z > 2.64) = 1 - P(Z < 2.64)

                           = 1 - 0.99585 = 0.00415

Now, at 1% significance level the z table gives critical value of 2.33 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 2.64 > 2.33, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased.

Question:

A solid lies between planes perpendicular to the​ x-axis at x=0 and x=12. The​ cross-sections perpendicular to the axis on the interval 0≤x≤12 are squares with diagonals that run from the parabola y=-2√x to the parabola y=2√x. Find the volume of the solid.

Answer:

576

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of diagonal square:

[tex] D = 2\sqrt{x} - (-2\sqrt{x}) [/tex]

[tex] D = 4\sqrt{x} [/tex]

Here, the diagonal is the hypotenus of a right angle triangle, with leg S, where the square has a side of length S.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

[tex] S^2 + S^2 = D^2 [/tex]

[tex] S^2 + S^2 = (4\sqrt{x})^2 [/tex]

[tex] 2S^2 = 16x [/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex] S^2 = 8x [/tex]

Thus,

Area, A = S² = 8x

Take differential volume, dx =

dV = Axdx

dV = 8xdx

Where limit of solid= 0≤x≤12

Volume of solid, V:

V =∫₀¹² dV

V = 8 ∫₀¹² xdx

V = [4x²]₀¹²

V = 4 (12)²

V = 12 * 144

= 576

Volume of solid = 576

The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures, computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 45 students were randomly assigned, 9 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam. (a) What are the hypotheses for evaluating if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods?

Answers

Answer:

The null hypothesis is that all the different teaching methods have the same average test scores.

H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5

The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the teaching methods have a different mean.

Ha: at least one mean is different. (μ1 ≠ μi)

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

For the case above, let μ represent the average test scores for the teaching methods:

The null hypothesis is that all the different teaching methods have the same average test scores.

H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5

The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the teaching methods have a different mean.

Ha: at least one mean is different. (μ1 ≠ μi)
