It has been found that 50.3% of U.S. households own stocks and mutual funds. A random sample of 300 heads of households indicated that 171 owned some type of stock. At what level of significance in a two- tailed test would you conclude that this was a significant difference

Answers

Answer 1

Finding the p-value of the test using the z-distribution, as we are working with a proportion, it is found that this was a significant difference for levels of significance of 0.02 and lower.

What are the hypothesis test?

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 50.3%, hence:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.503[/tex]

We have a two-tailed test, hence at the alternative hypothesis we test if the proportion is different, that is:

[tex]H_1: p \neq 0.503[/tex]

What is the test statistic?

The test statistic is given by:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

In which:

[tex]\overline{p}[/tex] is the sample proportion.p is the proportion tested at the null hypothesis.n is the sample size.

In this problem, the parameters are:

[tex]n = 300, \overline{p} = \frac{171}{300} = 0.57, p = 0.503[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{p} - p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.57 - 0.503}{\sqrt{\frac{0.503(0.497)}{300}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 2.32[/tex]

What is the p-value?

Considering a two-tailed test, using a z-distribution calculator, the p-value is of 0.0203. Hence this was a significant difference for levels of significance of 0.02 and lower.

Answer:

1 (the answer will always be 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's forget about the absolute value signs for a second and just look at what's inside

[tex]\frac{x+y}{-x-y}[/tex]

This can be rewritten as

[tex]-\frac{x+y}{x+y}[/tex]

When you have the same numerator and denominator, it will always come out to 1, so we can just say that this is saying

[tex]-\frac{x+y}{x+y} = -1[/tex]

Now, back to the absolute value signs

This comes out to negative 1, but the absolute value signs means to always change the negative to a positive (but if it's a positive, it stays positive!)

So that means:

[tex]|-1| = 1[/tex]

Sunshine Rental rents a motorcycle at a daily rate of $57.99 plus 48 cents per mile. City Rentals
rents the same motorcycle at $58.95 plus 46 cents per mile. For what mileage is the cost the same?

Answers

Answer:

48 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the mileage when both cost the same, first form two equations for the total cost for each rental place.

Let the mileage be m.

Sunshine Rental

Daily rate= $57.99

Total cost= $(57.99 +0.48m)

City Rentals

Daily rate= $58.95

Total cost= $(58.95 +0.46m)

Let's equate both equations together.

When both costs the same,

57.99 +0.48m= 58.95 +0.46m

0.48m -0.46m= 58.95 -57.99

0.02m= 0.96

Solve for m:

m= 0.96 ÷0.02

m= 48

The cost is the same at 48 miles.

Subtract. Write your answer in simplest for. 2/3 - 3/8

Answers

The lowest common denominator of 3 and 8 is 24, thus you must multiply 2/3 by 8/8 and 3/8 by 3/3. This is 16/24-9/24, which is equal to 7/24.
First we need common denominators so we can multiply 2/3 by 8 and 3/8 by 3. Now we would have 16/24 - 9/24 which would be 7/24. 7/24 cannot be simplified because 7 cannot be multiplied by anything to get 24. The answer would be 7/24

3.-Un camión de pasajeros arranca desde el reposo y mantiene una aceleración de 0.8 mis?
a) ¿En qué tiempo recorrerá una distancia de 0.5 km?
b) ¿Qué rapidez levará en ese tiempo en m/s y en km/h?

Answers

a) El tiempo requerido por el camión para recorrer 0.5 kilómetros es aproximadamente 35.355 segundos.

b) La rapidez que llevará el camión en ese tiempo es 28.284 metros por segundo (101.822 kilómetros por hora).

Caso de movimiento uniformemente acelerado

El camión experimenta un movimiento uniformemente acelerado, que ocurre al considerar que su aceleración ([tex]a[/tex]), en metros por segundo al cuadrado, es constante en el tiempo ([tex]t[/tex]), en segundos.

a) El tiempo requerido es determinado por el siguiente polinomio de segundo orden:

[tex]x = v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2}[/tex]   (1)

Donde:

[tex]x[/tex] - Cambio en la posición, en kilómetros. [tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Rapidez inicial, en metros por segundo.

Si sabemos que [tex]x = 500\,m[/tex], [tex]a = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] y [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], entonces tenemos que el tiempo requerido es:

[tex]0.4\cdot t^{2}-500 = 0[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 35.355\,s[/tex]

El tiempo requerido por el camión para recorrer 0.5 kilómetros es aproximadamente 35.355 segundos. [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

b) La rapidez final ([tex]v[/tex]), en metros por segundo, se determina con el siguiente polinomio de primer orden:

[tex]v = v_{o} + a\cdot t[/tex]   (2)

Si sabemos que [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]a = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] y [tex]t = 1250\,s[/tex], entonces tenemos que la rapidez final es:

[tex]v = 0 + 0.8\cdot (35.355)[/tex]

[tex]v = 28.284\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]   [tex]\left(101.822\,\frac{km}{h} \right)[/tex]

What is the unit rate of bulbs per yard?


HELP !!!!!

Answers

Answer:

First convert two feet into yards, knowing that:

1 foot = 0.333... yards

So,

2 feet in yards would mean double of 0.333... because one single foot is 0.333... yards.

2(0.333...)

= 0.666..., which we can round to 0.67.

So our new ratio will be 32 bulbs per 0.67 yards.

Now we convert this ratio into a unit rate,

Order your units;

Bulbs         32           47.76

______   ______ = ______, which rounds to about 48.

Yards        0.67             1

So the unit rate is 48 bulbs per yard.

Which number is bigger: 0.135 or 0.14?

Answers

0.14 as if you convert it into like decimal (add a 0 if the places are not the same e.g. 0.1 and 0.02 here 0.1 does not have the same number of digits so add a zero so it becomes 0.10 :. 0.10 is bigger then 0.02) (note the value of 0.1 will remain the same) so here 0.14 will become 0.140 :. bigger than 0.135

The number 0.14 is bigger than 0.135.

To compare the two numbers, you can look at their digits after the decimal point. In both numbers, the digit in the tenths place is 1. The next digit in 0.14 is 4, which is greater than the corresponding digit in 0.135, which is 3.

Since the digit in the hundredths place (4) is greater than the digit in the hundredths place (3), the number 0.14 is bigger than 0.135.

In summary, the order of the numbers from smallest to largest is:
