The median number of part-time employees at fast-food restaurants in a particular city was known to be 18 last year. City officials think the use of part-time employees may be increasing. A sample of nine fast-food restaurants showed that seven restaurants were employing more than 18 part-time employees, one restaurant was employing exactly 18 part-time employees, and one restaurant was employing fewer than 18 part-time employees. Can it be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased hence we will reject the null hypothesis ( H0 : p = 0.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Test using  α = 0.5 to determine whether the median number of part-time employees has increased

number of restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees = 7  ( + sign )

number of restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees = 1 ( - sign )

number of restaurants with exactly 18 part-time employees = 1

first step : ( state the null and alternate hypothesis )

Null hypothesis : ( H0) : median ≤ 18

Alternate hypothesis : ( Ha ) : median ≥ 18

The size of the sample ( n ) can be considered to be 8 because

number of restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees = 7  ( + sign )

number of restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees = 1 ( - sign )

Hence the actual hypothesis that should be tested will be :

H0 : p = 0.5

Ha : p ≠ 0.5

Next apply the binomial distribution to determine the number of + signs

= nP = 8 ( 0.5 ) = 4 + signs ( right tailed test i.e. upper tail of the binomial distribution )

determine the P ( ≥ 7 ) + signs in order to obtain the p-value of this right tailed test ( using the binomial probability table )

P ( ≥ 7 )+ signs  = p(7) +signs  + p(8)+signs

                         = 0.0313 + 0.0039 = 0.0352

Hence the P-value = 0.0352  is < 0.05  hence we will reject the Null hypothesis ( H0 : p = 0.5 )

hence It can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

Answer 2

The true statement is that, the median number of part-time employees has increased

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{n_1 = +7}[/tex] ---- restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees[tex]\mathbf{n_2 = -1}[/tex] ---- restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees [tex]\mathbf{n_3 = 1}[/tex] ---- restaurants with exactly 18 part-time employees

Using a 0.5 test of significance, the null and the alternate hypotheses are:

Null hypothesis : [tex]\mathbf{H_0 : p= 0.5}[/tex]Alternate hypothesis : [tex]\mathbf{H_a : p \ne 0.5}[/tex]

The sample size (n) is calculated using

[tex]\mathbf{n =n_1 -n_3}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{n =7 --1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n =8}[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is:

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = np}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 8 \times 0.5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 4}[/tex]

Using the right tailed test, we calculate the probability that a restaurant has more than 7 part-time employees.

This is calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = P(x = 7+) + P(x = 8+)}[/tex]

Using the binomial probability table, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = 0.0313 + 0.0039 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = 0.0352}[/tex]

By comparison,

When the p-value is less than the level of significance, then we will reject the Null hypothesis

Hence, it can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

A square garden has a diagonal of 12m. What is the perimeter of the garden? Express in simplest radical form.

Answers

Answer:

24√2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the side of the square be x

If the diagonal is 12m (hypotenuse), then;

x^2 + x^2 = 12^2

2x^2 = 144

x^2 = 144/2

x^2 = 72

x = √72

x = √36*2

x = 6√2

Perimeter of the square garden = 4x

Perimeter of the square garden = 4(6√2)

Perimeter of the square garden = 24√2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to get this i set up my equation like so.

0.60*(0.5*16)=y

Why I did it like this is because for every 0.5 thats half a mile so 8 miles times 2 to get the half miles was 16.

After figuring out that i started my equation and got

0.60*8=y

Then to finish it and get $4.8 Donated.

What is Algebra?

Algebra is the study of abstract symbols, while logic is the manipulation of all those ideas.

The definition of simplicity is making something simpler to achieve or grasp while also making it a little less difficult.

The mixed fraction number is 1 ¹/₄.

Convert the mixed fraction number into a fraction number. Then we have

1 ¹/₄ = 1 + ¹/₄

1 ¹/₄ = (4 + 1) / 4

1 ¹/₄ = 5 / 4

Convert the fraction number into a decimal form. Then we have

5/4 = 1.25

The mixed fraction number 1 ¹/₄ into the two different forms will be 5/4 and 1.25.

A regular hexagon has all six sides to be equal in length. The sum of its interior angle can be determined by:

                                      sum of angles = (n - 2) x 180

pier. He sees a whole surface in the ocean. If the angle of depression of the whale is 20", how

far is the whale from his eyes?

Answers

Answer:

90.67feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that α = 20°

Tan α = opp/adj......... 1

Opp = 33feet

Adj = x

Substitute the values into equation 1

Tan 20° = 33feet/adj

0.36397 = 33/adj

0.36397×adj = 33

Adj = 33/0.36397

Adj = 90.666

Recall, adj = x = 90.666feet

x = 90.67feet

Hence, the whale is 90.67feet far from the eyes
