Please use the following scenario for this question and the following 4 questions. The national academy of sciences reported in a 1997 study that 40% of research in mathematics is published by US authors. The math chairperson of a university wishes to test the claim that this percentage is no longer 40%. He has no indication of whether the percentage has increased or decreased since that time. He surveys a simple random sample of 130 recent articles published by reputable math research journals and finds that 62 of these articles have US authors. Does this evidence support the math chairperson's claim that the percentage is no longer 40%

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The evidence does not support the math chairperson's claim that the percentage is no longer 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

The known population percentage of research in mathematics published by US authors = 40%

The proportion, p = 0.40

Therefore, q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.4 = 0.6

The number of articles in the sample = 130

The number of articles by US authors in the sample = 62

Therefore, the proportion of US authors in the sample, [tex]\hat p[/tex] = (62/130) × 100 =

[tex]0.4\overline{769230}[/tex]

∴ The percentage of US authors in the sample ≈ 47.7%

The null hypothesis, H₀; p = 0.4

The alternative hypothesis, Hₐ; p ≠ 0.4

The z-test is given as follows;

[tex]z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p\cdot q}{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z=\dfrac{0.477-0.40}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4\times 0.6}{130}}} \approx 1.792[/tex]

The p-value P(Z > 1.79) = 2 × (1 - 0.96327) = 0.07346

Therefore, given that the p-value is larger than 0.05 there is significant evidence in favor of the null hypothesis and we reject the alternative hypothesis

Therefore, also, there is not enough statistical evidence to support the math chairperson's claim that the percentage is no longer 40%.

Give each side and angle measure rounded to the nearest whole number

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A—>108m

The side BC and AC and the angle B is 108 m,180 m and 59°.

What is the triangle?

A triangle is a polygon that has three sides and three angles. The sum of the angle of the triangle is 180 degrees.

[tex]\rm sin \theta = \frac{P}{H} \\\\ \rm sin 31^0= \frac{a}{210} \\\\ a=108 \ m[/tex]

[tex]\rm cos \theta = \frac{B}{H} \\\\ \rm cos 31^0 = \frac{b}{210} \\\\ b=180 \ m[/tex]

The measure of the angle of triangle is 180°

∠A+∠B+∠C=180°

31°+∠B+90°=180°

∠B=59°

Hence, the side BC and AC and the angle B is 108 m,180 m and 59°.

Hi!

To do this problem, we have to set up a percent proportion:

[tex]\frac{3.3\\}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12}{100}[/tex]

In this problem, the denominators are the percent values and the numerators are the numerical value.

The length of a rectangular garden is three feet less than twice its width.

Answers

Answer:

Width of the rectangle is 8 feet

Length of the rectangle is  13 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Complete question -

The length of a rectangular garden is three feet less than twice its width. If the perimeter of the garden is 42 feet, what is its length?

Solution

Let the width  of the  rectangle be X feet

Length of the rectangle would be 2X -3  feet

Perimeter of the rectangle is 2 (length + breadth)

Substituting the given values, we get -

Perimeter =  2 (length + breadth)

[tex]42 = 2 [(2X-3) + X]\\42 = 4X - 6 + 2X\\48 = 6X\\X = 8[/tex]

Width of the rectangle is 8 feet

Length of the rectangle is  [tex]2*8 -3 = 16-3 = 13[/tex] feet

128 dozen accessories

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of boxes sold = d

Turbo jetpack = 6(d + 7)

Xray vision glasses = 2d - 5

Invisible shield = 10d + 1

Combined number of accessories sold :

6(d + 7) + (2d - 5) + (10d + 1)

6d + 42 + 2d - 5 + 10d + 1

18d + 38

If 5 dozens are sold

d = 5

Number of accessories sold :

18(5) + 38

90 + 38 = 128 dozens accessories

Which equation would demonstrate the identity property? A. (3 • 4) + (3 • 5) = 3(4 + 5) B. 3 • 5 = 5 • 3 C. 3 • 4 • 5 = (3• 4) • 5 D. 4 • 1 = 4

Answers

Answer:

D. 4 • 1 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In Mathematics, we have two kinds of Identity property

a) Identity property of Addition

This means that when you add a number to zero, it gives you that same number

Example: 6 + 0 = 6

b) Identity property of Multiplication,

This means that, when a number is multiplied by 1, it gives that same number.

Example: 8 × 1 = 8

Therefore, from the above question, the equation that demonstrates identity property is 4 • 1 = 4

seven people sit in a circle.How many ways can this be done if two people A and B sit together ​

Answers

I’m pretty sure you would just multiply 7 times 2 (since it’s A and B)

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the persons are a, b, c, d, e, f and g.

Let us also assume that a and b always sit together.

Let us then put the remaining 5 persons in a circular arrangement. It can be done in (5–1)! = 4! = 24 ways. Now, the pair (a,b) can be placed between any two persons already placed in circular order. There are 5 such gaps. Finally the pair (a,b) can be placed in two ways viz. (a,b) and (b,a).

So, total number of ways a group of 7 persons can be seated around a circular table where 2 specified persons always sit together is 24 X 2 X 5 = 240

The fountain is made up of two semicircles and one quarter circle. Find the perimeter and area of the fountain.

Answers

Answer:

628ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

From the diagram, we are given the following

diameter of the semicircles

2semi circles  = 1 circle

Area of 2semicircles = πd²/4

Area of 2semicircles = 3.14(20)²/4

Area of 2semicircles = 3.14*400/4

Area of 2semicircles = 3.14*100

Area of 2semicircles = 314ft²

Area of the quarter circle =  πd²/4 * 1/4

Area of the quarter circle =  πd²/16

d = 2r

d = 2*20

d = 40ft

Area of the quarter circle  = 3.14(40)²/16

Area of the quarter circle = 3.14*1600/16

Area of the quarter circle = 3.14*100

Area of the quarter circle = 314ft²

Area of the fountain = 314ft²+314ft²

Area of the fountain = 628ft²
