A state's Department of Education reports that 12% of the high school students in that state attend private high schools. The State University wonders if the percentage is the same in their applicant pool. Admissions officers plan to check a random sample of the over 10,000 applications on file to estimate the percentage of students applying for admission who attend private schools.
a) They select a random sample of 500 applications, and find that 46 of those students attend private schools. Check the conditions required for inference. (3 marks)
b) Create the 90% confidence interval. (6 marks)
c) Interpret the confidence interval in the context of the problem. (3 marks)
d) Should the admissions officers conclude that the percentage of private school students in their applicant pool is lower than the statewide enrollment rate of 12%? Explain. (2 marks)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)  p*n =  46     and  q*n  =  454 data is enough for inference

b) CI =  (   0,099 ;  0,141)

c) CI we will find with 90% of confidence the value of p in that interval

d) No, we accept H₀  we don´t have evidence to claim that the percentage in the State University is smaller than that of the Department of Education

Step-by-step explanation:

Information from A state´s Department of Education is:

p₀  =  12 %    p₀ = 0,12

The State University sample:

Sample size   n  = 500

Sample proportion   46   out of 500      

p  =  46/500     p =  0,092     then    q =  1- p   q  =  1 - 0,092    q = 0,908

Both    p*n =  46     and  q*n  =  454

a) Are big enough to approximate the binomial distribution to normal distribution

b) CI = 90%   CI = 0,9     significance level  α = 0,10  for an CI we need

α/2   =  0,10/2      α/2 = 0,05

z(c)  =  - 1,64     ( from  z-table)

MOE  =  z(c)*√(p*q)/n

MOE  =   1,64 * √ ( 0,092*0,908)/500

MOE  =  1,64 *√0,08353/500

MOE  =  1,64 * 0,0129

MOE  = 0,021

Then  CI = 90 % is:

CI  =  (  0,12 -  0,021   <  P  <  0,12 + 0,021 )

CI =  (   0,099 ;  0,141)

We have with 90 % of confidence for finding the value of p in the interval

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                        H₀             p  =  p₀

Alternative Hypothesis            Hₐ             p < p₀

we have  for  α = 0,1     z(c)  =  - 2,32  from z table

And  z(s)  = ( p  -  p₀  ) /  √ (p*q)/n

z(s)  = ( 0,092 - 0,12 ) / √(0,092*0,908)/500

z(s)  =  - 0,028 / 0,0129

z(s)  =  - 2,17

Comparing  z(s)  and  z(c)  we see that

|z(s)| < |z(c)|

So  z(s) is in the acceptance region. We can support the claim that the percentage in the State University is the same than that of the Departament of Education

In a quadrilateral ABCD, ∠A = 100°, ∠B = 105° and ∠C = 70°, find ∠D.

Solution:

Here the sum of the four angles

or, ∠A + ∠B + ∠C + ∠D = 360°

We know, ∠A = 100°, ∠B = 105° and ∠C = 70°

or, 100° + 105° + 70° + ∠D = 360°

or, 275° + ∠D = 360°

∠D = 360° - 275°

Therefore,  = 85°

The ratio of men to women working for a company is 5 to 8. If there are 232 women working for the company, what is the total number of employees?

Answers

Answer:

The total number of employees is 377.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. You divide total number of women (232) by the ratio of women. (8)

232/8 =29

2. You take 29 and multiply it by the amount of men in the ratio. (5)

29*5=145

3. Finally you just add the total amount of men (145) and the total amount of women. (232)

232+145=377

I hope this helps!

I tried to explain to the best of my ability.

Answer: 377 employees

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of men to women can be represented as [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] where the numerator represents how many men are in the company, and the denominator represents how many women are in the company. Given that there are 232 women in the company, we can replace denominator with 232, and then cross multiply.

[tex]\frac{5}{8}= \frac{x}{232}[/tex]    After cross multiplying, the expression left would be 8x = 1160. To get the final answer, we would only need to simplify this. It would give us a total of 145, which is how many men work in the company.

Lastly, add the the number or men and women working in the company, and that would be the total people that work in the company

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the slope (m) of Line L using the points (0, 5) and (2, 1):

[tex] slope (m) = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} = \frac{1 - 5}{2 - 0} = \frac{-4}{2} = -2 [/tex]

Slope (m) = -2

✔️Since the line is parallel bro Line L, it would also have the same slope value of -2.

We can use the slope (m) and a point (a, b) of the line to find its equation using the point-slope formula, y - b = m(x - a).

Substitute (a, b) = (3, 0), and m = -2 into y - b = m(x + a):

Thus,

✅y - 0 = -2(x + 3)

Rewrite equation in slope-intercept form

y = -2(x + 3)

✅y = -2x - 6

Solve the system by substitution.

3r + y = 5
5x – 4y = -3
