With domestic sources of building supplies running low several years ago, roughly 60,000 homes were built with imported Chinese drywall. According to an article federal investigators identified a strong association between chemicals in the drywall and electrical problems, and there is also strong evidence of respiratory difficulties due to the emission of hydrogen sulfide gas. An extensive examination of 58 homes found that 46 had such problems. Suppose these 58 were randomly sampled from the population of all homes having Chinese drywall.
(a) Does the data provide strong evidence for concluding that more than 50% of all homes with Chinese drywall have electrical/environmental problems? Carry out a test of hypotheses using a = 0.01.
Compute the test statistic value. Round your answer to two decimal places.
(b) Calculate a lower confidence bound using a confidence level of 99% for the percentage of all such homes that have electrical/environmental problems. (Round your answer to one decimal place.)
(c) If it is actually the case that 80% of all such homes have problems, how likely is it that the test of (a) would not conclude that more than 50% do? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis:

[tex]H_o : \mu = 0.50[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis:

[tex]H_a : \mu > 0.50[/tex]

The sample proportion [tex]\hat p = \dfrac{x}{n}[/tex]

[tex]\hat p = \dfrac{46}{58}[/tex]

[tex]\hat p = 0.7931[/tex]

The test statistics:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat p - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.7931 - 0.50}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{58} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.2931}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.25}{58} } }[/tex]

[tex]Z = \dfrac{0.2931}{0.06565321643}[/tex]

Z = 4.46      (to two decimal places)

At 99% C.I

Level of significance is:

∝ = 1 - C.I

∝ = 1 - 0.99

∝ = 0.01

Thus, the lower confidence bound can be computed as:

[tex]= \hat p - Z_{\alpha} \sqrt{\dfrac{\hat p ( 1- \hat p )}{n} }[/tex]

Critical value of [tex]Z_{0.01/2} = 2.33[/tex]

[tex]= 0.7931 - 2.33 \sqrt{\dfrac{0.7931 (1-0.7931)}{58}}[/tex]

[tex]= 0.7931 - 2.33 (0.05319)[/tex]

= 0.7931 - 0.1239327

= 0.6691673

[tex]\simeq[/tex] 0.7    (to one decimal place)

(c)

Given:

[tex]P_o = 0.50[/tex]  and [tex]\hat p = 0.80[/tex]

Then:

[tex]\beta (0.8) = \phi \Big [ \dfrac{p_o-\hat p + Z_{\alpha} \sqrt{\dfrac{p_o(1-p_o)}{n}}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } \Big][/tex]

[tex]\beta (0.8) = \phi \Big [ \dfrac{0.5-0.8 + 2.33 \sqrt{\dfrac{0.5(1-0.5)}{58}}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.8(1-0.8)}{58} }}\Big][/tex]

[tex]= \phi \Big [ \dfrac{-0.3+ 2.33 (0.06565)}{\sqrt{0.0027586 }} \Big][/tex]

[tex]= \phi \Big [ \dfrac{-0.3+ 0.1529645}{0.052522} \Big][/tex]

[tex]= \phi \Big [ \dfrac{-0.1470355}{0.052522 } \Big][/tex]

[tex]= \phi \Big [-2.799\Big][/tex]

= 0.0026    ( to four decimal place).

Where

Happy to help:)

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf m=\frac{1}{4}}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line can be found using the slope formula or dividing the change in y by the change in x.  

[tex]m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are the points the line passes through.

We are given the points (2,1) and (6,2). Therefore:

[tex]x_1=2 \\y_1= 1\\x_2= 6\\y_2=2[/tex]

Substitute the points into the formula.

[tex]m=\frac{2-1}{6-2}[/tex]

Solve the numerator.

2-1=1

[tex]m=\frac{1}{6-2}[/tex]

Solve the denominator

6-2=4

[tex]m=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

This fraction cannot be reduced further, so it is the slope. It can be written as a decimal too:

[tex]m= 0.25[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

y = -7x - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard from of equation of a line is expressed as;

y = mx+c

m is teh slope = -7

c is the intercept

Get the intercept by substituting m = -7 and the point (-2, 5) into the equation;

y = mx+c

5 = -7(-2) + c

5 = 14 + c

c = 5-14

c = -9

y = -7x - 9

Answers

Complete question is;

A shareholders’ group, in lodging a protest, claimed that the mean tenure for a chief executive office (CEO) was at least seven years. A survey of companies reported in The Wall Street Journal found a sample mean tenure of x¯ = 7.27 years for CEOs with a standard deviation of s = 6.38 years (The Wall Street Journal, January 2, 2007).

a. Formulate hypotheses that can be used to challenge the validity of the claim made by

the shareholders’ group.

b. Assume 85 companies were included in the sample. What is the p-value for your hypothesis

test?

Answer:

A) Null hypothesis: H0: μ ≥ 7

Alternative hypothesis: μ < 7

B) p-value = 0.3488

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that the shareholders group claimed that the mean tenure for a chief executive office (CEO) was at least seven years.

Thus, defining the hypothesis, we have;

Null hypothesis: H0: μ ≥ 7

Alternative hypothesis: μ < 7

B) Sample mean: x¯ = 7.27 years standard deviation: s = 6.38 years

Sample size = 85

Formula for the test static is;

t = (x¯ - μ)/(s/√n)

t = (7.27 - 7)/(6.38/√85)

t = 0.39

From online p-value from t score calculator attached using: t = 0.39, DF= 85 - 1 = 84, significance value = 0.05, one tail, we have;

p-value = 0.3488

8. Not similar

9. Similar

Step-by-step explanation:

8. You could try to us the AA theorem which means that two angles in the triangle are equal, which would mean that the triangles are similar. But 46+58=104 and 180-104=76 so there are not two similar angled between the triangles.

9. You can use the same theorem for this problem (AA). So 106+31=137 and then 180-137=43 which is one of the angles in the second triangle. Since at least two of the angles are equal, you can use AA theorem yo prove they are similar.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

The two triangles in 8 are not similar. The two triangles in 9 are similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

The three angles of all triangles must add up to 180°.

The left triangle in 8 has these angles:

46  58  and (180 - (46+58)) = 76

The right triangle in 8 has these angles:

58  78  and (180 - (58+78)) = 44

So, 46 | 44 and 76 | 78 are dissimilar.

The left triangle in 9 has these angles:

106  31  and (180 - (106+31)) = 43

The right triangle in 9 has these angles:

31  43  and (180 - (31+43)) = 106

But the triangles in 9 all have the same angles: 31  |  43  |  106.

QUICK PLS HELP
The mean number of typhoon hitting US follows a Poisson distribution with
variance 0.5 per month. Find the probability that
(a) 4 typhoons will hit US in a year.
(b) at least 2 typhoons will hit US in a given half-year.

Answers

Answer:

A) 0.1339

B) 0.8078

Step-by-step explanation:

The Poisson Distribution formula is given by;

P(x; μ) = (e^(-μ) × (μ^(x))/x!

We are given;

Variance = 0.5 per month

Now, in Poisson distribution, variance = mean.. Thus, mean μ = 0.5 per month

A) We want to find the probability that 4 typhoons will hit US in a year.

Thus, x = 4

But since it's for a year, then μ = 0.5 × 12 = 6

So;

P(x = 4) = (e^(-6) × (6^(4))/4!

P(x = 4) = 0.00247875 × 1296/24

P(X = 4) = 0.1339

B) probability that at least 2 typhoons will hit US in a given half-year is;

P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - P(X < 2)

P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)

In a half given year, μ = 0.5 × 6 = 3

P(X = 0) = (e^(-3) × (6^(0))/0!

P(X = 0) = 0.0498

P(X = 1) = (e^(-3) × (6^(1))/1!

P(X = 1) = 0.1494

P(X < 2) = 0.0498 + 0.1494

P(X < 2) = 0.1922

P(X ≥ 2) = 1 - 0.1922

P(X ≥ 2) = 0.8078

4. Determine the magnitude and direction of the vector v = <5, -6>.
f. 11, NE
g. 61, SE
h. 111, NE
j. V61, SE

Answers

Answer:

The magnitude of vector is:

[tex]\left|\begin{pmatrix}5&-6\end{pmatrix}\right|=\sqrt{61}[/tex]

v = <5, -6> means the vector has x-coordinate x = 5 and y-coordinate y = -6, so the vector v = <5, -6>  is heading towards SE.

Thus, option ( j ) is correct.

i.e.  [tex]\sqrt{61},\:SE[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the vector

v = <5, -6>

Determining the magnitude of the vector

To find a magnitude of a vector v = (a, b) we use the formula

[tex]||v||\:=\:\sqrt{a^2+b^2}[/tex]

Magnitude of the vector is basically termed as the length of the vector, which is denoted by

[tex]|\left(5,\:-6\right)|=\sqrt{\left(5\right)^2+\left(-6\right)^2}[/tex]

            [tex]=\sqrt{5^2+6^2}[/tex]

             [tex]=\sqrt{25+36}[/tex]

             [tex]=\sqrt{61}[/tex]

Thus, the magnitude of vector is:

[tex]\left|\begin{pmatrix}5&-6\end{pmatrix}\right|=\sqrt{61}[/tex]

As the vector v = <5, -6> lies in 4th quadrant.

v = <5, -6> means the vector has x-coordinate x = 5 and y-coordinate y = -6, so the vector v = <5, -6>  is heading towards SE.

Thus, option ( j ) is correct.
