You are conducting a study to see if the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.37. A random sample of 780 men over the age of 50 found that 206 have their prostate regularly examined. Do the sample data provide convincing evidence to support the claim. Test the relevant hypotheses using a 10% level of significance. Give answers to at least 4 decimal places. What are the correct hypotheses?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1. Yes, the sample data provides convincing evidence to support the claim that the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.37

2. The correct hypotheses are;

The null hypothesis is H₀: p ≥ p₀

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ: p < p₀

Step-by-step explanation:

given

The null hypothesis is H₀: p ≥ p₀ where p₀ = 0.37

The alternative hypothesis is Hₐ: p < p₀

The formula for the z test is presented as follows;

[tex]z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p_0}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p_0 (1 - p_0)}{n}}}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\hat p[/tex] = Sample proportion = 206/780 = 0.264

p₀ = Population proportion = 0.37

n = Sample size = 780

α = Significance level = 10% = 0.01

Plugging in the values, we have;

[tex]z=\dfrac{0.264-0.37}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.37 (1 - 0.37)}{780}}} = -6.13[/tex]

From the the z relation/computation, we have the p value = 0.000000000451

Since the p value which is 0.000000000451 is less than α, which is 0.01 we reject the null hypothesis and we fail to reject the alternative hypothesis, that is there is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the proportion of men over the age of 50 who regularly have their prostate examined is significantly less than 0.37.

Answers

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Q1)a

- Denote a random variable ( X ) as the life time of a brand of bulb produced.

- The given mean ( μ ) = 210 hrs and standard deviation ( σ ) = 56 hrs. The distribution is symbolized as follows:

                           X ~ Norm ( 210 , 56^2 )

i) The bulb picked to have a life time of at least 300 hours.

- We will first standardize the limiting value of the RV ( X ) and determine the corresponding Z-score value:

          P ( X ≥ x ) = P ( Z ≥ ( x - μ ) / σ )

          P ( X ≥ 300 ) = P ( Z ≥ ( 300 - 210 ) / 56 )

          P ( X ≥ 300 ) = P ( Z ≥ 1.607 )  

- Use the standard normal look-up table for limiting value of Z-score:

         P ( X ≥ 300 ) = P ( Z ≥ 1.607 ) = 0.054  .. Answer

ii) The bulb picked to have a life time of at most 100 hours.

- We will first standardize the limiting value of the RV ( X ) and determine the corresponding Z-score value:

          P ( X ≤ x ) = P ( Z ≤ ( x - μ ) / σ )

          P ( X ≤ 100 ) = P ( Z ≤ ( 100 - 210 ) / 56 )

          P ( X ≤ 100 ) = P ( Z ≤ -1.9643 )  

- Use the standard normal look-up table for limiting value of Z-score:

         P ( X ≤ 100 ) = P ( Z ≤ -1.9643 ) = 0.0247  .. Answer

iii) The bulb picked to have a life time of between 150 and 250 hours.

- We will first standardize the limiting value of the RV ( X ) and determine the corresponding Z-score value:

          P ( x1 ≤ X ≤ x2 ) = P ( ( x1 - μ ) / σ ≤ Z ≤ ( x2 - μ ) / σ )

          P ( 150 ≤ X ≤ 250 ) = P ( ( 150 - 210 ) / 56 ≤ Z ≤ ( 250 - 210 ) / 56 )

          P ( 150 ≤ X ≤ 250 ) = P ( -1.0714 ≤ Z ≤ 0.71428 )  

- Use the standard normal look-up table for limiting value of Z-score:

         P ( 150 ≤ X ≤ 250 ) = P ( -1.0714 ≤ Z ≤ 0.71428 ) = 0.6205  .. Answer

Q1)b

- Denote event (A) : Kofi solves the problem correctly. Then the probability of him answering successfully is:

                    p ( A ) = 0.25

- Denote event (B) : Menesh solves the problem correctly. Then the probability of him answering successfully is:

                    p ( B ) = 0.4

- The probability that neither of them answer the question correctly is defined by a combination of both events ( A & B ). The two events are independent.  

- So for independent events the required probability can be stated as:

              p ( A' & B' ) = p ( A' ) * p ( B' )

              p ( A' & B' ) = [ 1 - p ( A ) ] * [ 1 - p ( B ) ]

              p ( A' & B' ) = [ 1 - 0.25 ] * [ 1 - 0.4 ]

              p ( A' & B' ) = 0.45 ... Answer

Q2)a

- A discrete random variable X: defines the probability of getting each number on a biased die.

- From the law of total occurrences. The sum of probability of all possible outcomes is always equal to 1.

             ∑ p ( X = xi ) = 1

             p ( X = 1 ) + p ( X = 2 ) + p ( X = 3 ) + p ( X = 4 ) + p ( X = 5 ) + p ( X = 6 )

             1/6 + 1/6 + 1/5 + k + 1/5 + 1/6 = 1

             k = 0.1  ... Answer

- The expected value E ( X ) or mean value for the discrete distribution is determined from the following formula:

             E ( X ) = ∑ p ( X = xi ) . xi

             E ( X ) = (1/6)*1 + (1/6)*2 + (1/5)*3 + (0.1)*4 + (1/5)*5 + (1/6)*6

             E ( X ) = 3.5 .. Answer

- The expected-square value E ( X^2 ) or squared-mean value for the discrete distribution is determined from the following formula:

             E ( X^2 ) = ∑ p ( X = xi ) . xi^2

             E ( X^2 ) = (1/6)*1 + (1/6)*4 + (1/5)*9 + (0.1)*16 + (1/5)*25 + (1/6)*36

             E ( X^2 ) = 15.233 .. Answer

- The variance of the discrete random distribution for the variable X can be determined from:

            Var ( X ) = E ( X^2 ) - [ E ( X ) ] ^2

            Var ( X ) = 15.2333 - [ 3.5 ] ^2

            Var ( X ) = 2.9833 ... Answer

- The cumulative probability of getting any number between 1 and 5 can be determined from the sum:

           P ( 1 < X < 5 ) = P ( X = 2 ) + P ( X = 3 ) + P ( X = 4 )

           P ( 1 < X < 5 ) = 1/6 + 1/5 + 0.1

           P ( 1 < X < 5 ) = 0.467  ... Answer

Q2)b

- Two independent events are defined by their probabilities as follows:

           p ( A ) = 0.3  and p ( B ) = 0.5

- The occurrences of either event does not change alter or affect the occurrences of the other event; hence, independent.

- For the two events to occur simultaneously at the same time:

          p ( A & B ) = p ( A )* p ( B )

          p ( A & B ) = 0.3*0.5

          p ( A & B ) = 0.15  ... Answer

- For either of the events to occur but not both. From the comparatively law of two independent events A and B we have:

        p ( A U B ) = p ( A ) + p ( B ) - 2*p ( A & B )

        p ( A U B ) = 0.3 + 0.5 - 2*0.15

        p ( A U B ) = 0.5 ... Answer

- Two mutually exclusive events can-not occur simultaneously; hence, the two events are not mutually exclusive because:

       p ( A & B ) = 0.15 ≠ 0

Q2)c

- The letters of the word given are to be arranged in number of different ways as follows:

                                  STATISTICS

- Number of each letters:

        S : 3

        T : 3

        A: 1

        I: 2

        C: 1

- 10 letters can be arranged in 10! ways.

- However, the letters ( S and T and I ) are repeated. So the number of permutations must be discounted by the number of each letter is repeated as follows:

                        [tex]\frac{10!}{3!3!2!} = \frac{3628800}{72} = 50,400[/tex]

- So the total number of ways the word " STATISTICS " can be re-arranged is 50,400 without repetitions.

Answers

Your question is not well presented (Refer below for correct question)

The distance it takes a truck to stop can be modeled by the function;

d(u) = 2.15u²/64.4f

Where

d = stopping distance in feet

u = initial velocity in miles per hour

f = a constant related to friction

When the truck's initial velocity on dry pavement is 40 mph, its stopping distance is 138 ft.

Determine the value of f.

Answer:

The friction constant is approximately 0.3871

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Stopping distance, d(u) = 138ft

Initial Velocity, u = 40mph

Required

Friction constant, f.

To get the value of f, we need to simply substitute 40 for u and 138 for d(u) in the above expression.

In other words;

d(u) = 2.15u²/64.4f becomes

138 = 2.15 * 40²/64.4f

138 = 2.15 * 1600/64.4f

138 = 3440/64.4f

Multiply both sides by 64.4f

138 * 64.4f = 64.4f * 3440/64.4f

8887.2f = 3440

Divide both sides by 8887.2

8887.2f/8887.2 = 3440/8887.2

f = 3440/8887.2

f = 0.387073544

f = 0.3871 (Approximated)

Hence, the friction constant is approximately 0.3871

1a) The sample of 25 is exactly 1/30 of the population of 750, so the number of orange cakes in the population will be 30 times the number in the sample.

The total number of orange cakes made on Monday is 30·7 = 210.

__

1b) The lowest number that will round to 5 is 4.5. The lowest probability that a cake is an orange cake is ...

  4.5/25 = 18/100 = 0.18

The lower bound on the probability that the cake is orange is 0.18.

____

2) The working shown is partly correct.

The possible error in the box dimension is 1/2 cm, so the box may be as short as 28 -1/2 cm = 27.5 cm.

The possible error in the disc case dimension is 1/2 mm = 0.05 cm, so the case may be as thick as 1.5 +.05 = 1.55 cm.

The minimum number discs that will fit in the case is (27.5 cm)/(1.55 cm) = 17.7. Thus, 17 cases will definitely fit in the box.

____

3) The shaded area will be the largest when the outside rectangle is the largest and the inside rectangle is the smallest. Errors in dimensions can be as much as 1/2 cm, so the Outside rectangle can be 42.5 cm by 21.5 cm. The inside rectangle can be as small as 27.5 cm by 14.5 cm.

Then the shaded area can be as large as ...

  (42.5)(21.5) -(27.5)(14.5) = 515 . . . . cm^2

An investment of ​$100 comma 000 was made by a business club. The investment was split into three parts and lasted for one year. The first part of the investment earned​ 8% interest, the second​ 6%, and the third​ 9%. Total interest from the investments was $ 7380. The interest from the first investment was 2 times the interest from the second. Find the amounts of the three parts of the investment.

Answers

Answer:

$54000 was invested at​ 8% interest$36000 was invested at​ 6% interest$10000 was invested at​ 9% interest

Step-by-step explanation:

Total Investment = ​$100,000

The investment was split into three parts (say x, y and z)

x+y+z=100000

Simple Interest = Principal X Rate/100 X Time

The first part of the investment earned​ 8% interest

Interest on the first part = 0.08x

The second part of the investment earned​ 6% interest

Interest on the second  part = 0.06y

The third part of the investment earned​ 9% interest

Interest on the third part = 0.09z

Total interest from the investments = $ 7380.

Therefore:

0.08x+0.06y+0.09z=7380

The interest from the first investment was 2 times the interest from the second.

0.08x=2 X 0.06y

0.08x=0.12y

Substituting we have:

0.12y+0.06y+0.09z=7380

0.18y+0.09z=7380

From 0.08x=0.12y

x=1.5y

Substituting x=1.5y into x+y+z=100000

1.5y+y+z=100000

2.5y+z=100000

z=100000-2.5y

Substituting z=100000-2.5y into 0.18y+0.09z=7380

0.18y+0.09(100000-2.5y)=7380

0.18y+9000-0.225y=7380

-0.045y=-1620

Divide both sides by -0.045

y=36000

Recall: x=1.5y

x=1.5 X 36000

x =54000

x+y+z=100000

54000+36000+z=100000

z=100000-(54000+36000)

z=10,000

Therefore:

$54000 was invested at​ 8% interest$36000 was invested at​ 6% interest$10000 was invested at​ 9% interest

Juanita goes shopping in Times Square, where T-shirts are 20% off today. If she buys one in the next 10 minutes, she can get an extra 10% off the sale price. How much would Juanita pay for a T-shirt right now? *

Answers

Answer:

72%

Step-by-step explanation:

As the T-shirts have 20% off and Juanita would get an extra 10% off the sale price, the additional discount would be over the price with the 20% off included. This means that the sale price is the 80% of the normal price and an additional 10% over that 80% would be:

80*10%= 8

80%-8%= 72%

This means that Juanita would have to pay the 72% percent of the regular price of the T-shirt as the total discount would be 28% off.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We say that a function is differentiable if it's derivative exists and it is continous over the domain of the original function. Recall that the function |x| is given as |x| = x if [tex]x\geq 0[/tex] and |x|=-x if x<0. In both cases, we have either the function x or -x, which are one-degree polynomials. So, we can find easily their derivatives. So if f(x) = |x|. Then, we have that

[tex]f'(x) = (x)' = 1 \text{if } x\geq 0[/tex]

[tex]f'(x) = (-x)' = -1 \text{if } x<0[/tex]

We should check what happens x=0, since that is the point where the definition of f changes. We can check that

[tex]\lim_{x\to 0^+} f'(x) = 1[/tex] and

[tex]\lim_{x\to 0^-} f'(x) = -1[/tex]

since this limits are not equal, the derivative is not continous at x=0. Hence, the derivative doesn't exist at x=0.

In this case, we say that |x| is differentiable at any x different from 0.

City B experienced three times the amount of rainfall than  City A, therefore :

City B received 3x inches of rain.

Since both cities received 11 inches of rainfall in total.

We have that:

x+3x=11

4x=11

Divide both sides by 4

x=2.75 Inches

Therefore, we City A received 2.75 inches of rain.

The z score for 95% confidence level is 1.96

p = 46/100 = 0.46

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.46

q = 0.54

n = 500

Margin of error = 1.96√0.46 × 0.54/500 = 0.044

To tighten it's interval, the margin of error needs to be reduced.

If we increase the confidence level, say to 99%, z = 2.58

Then

Margin of error = 2.58√0.46 × 0.54/500 = 0.058

It increased

Also, If we increase the sample size, say to 700, then

Margin of error = 1.96√0.46 × 0.54/700 = 0.037

It has reduced

Therefore, the correct options is

C. increase the sample size

Notice that the alternative hypothesis is a two-tailed test. Suppose ttest_ind method from scipy module is used to perform the test and the output is (-1.99, 0.0512). What is the P-value for this hypothesis test

Answers

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.0512.

Step-by-step explanation:

The p-value of a test is well-defined as per the probability, [under the null hypothesis (H₀)], of attaining a result equivalent to or more extreme than what was the truly observed value of the test statistic.

In this case the output of the t-test_ind method from scipy module is provided as follows:

Output = (-1.99, 0.0512)

The first value within the parentheses is the test statistic value.

So the test statistic value is, -1.99.

And the second value within the parentheses is the p-value of the test.

So the p-value of the test is 0.0512.

What is the probability that a ball bearing is:___________.
a. between the target and the actual mean?
b. between the lower specification limit and the target?
c. above the upper specification limit?d. below the lower specification limit?

Answers

Answer:

(a) Probability that a ball bearing is between the target and the actual mean is 0.2734.

(b) Probability that a ball bearing is between the lower specification limit and the target is 0.226.

(c) Probability that a ball bearing is above the upper specification limit is 0.0401.

(d) Probability that a ball bearing is below the lower specification limit is 0.0006.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an industrial sewing machine uses ball bearings that are targeted to have a diameter of 0.75 inch. The lower and upper specification limits under which the ball bearings can operate are 0.74 inch and 0.76 inch, respectively.

Past experience has indicated that the actual diameter of the ball bearings is approximately normally distributed, with a mean of 0.753 inch and a standard deviation of 0.004 inch.

Let X = diameter of the ball bearings

SO, X ~ Normal([tex]\mu=0.753,\sigma^{2} =0.004^{2}[/tex])

The z-score probability distribution for normal distribution is given by;

                                Z  =  [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean = 0.753 inch

           [tex]\sigma[/tex] = standard deviation = 0.004 inch

(a) Probability that a ball bearing is between the target and the actual mean is given by = P(0.75 < X < 0.753) = P(X < 0.753 inch) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.75 inch)

      P(X < 0.753) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{0.753-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < 0) = 0.50

      P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.75) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{0.75-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -0.75) = 1 - P(Z < 0.75)

                                                             = 1 - 0.7734 = 0.2266

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0 and x = 0.75 in the z table which has an area of 0.50 and 0.7734 respectively.

Therefore, P(0.75 inch < X < 0.753 inch) = 0.50 - 0.2266 = 0.2734.

(b) Probability that a ball bearing is between the  lower specification limit and the target is given by = P(0.74 < X < 0.75) = P(X < 0.75 inch) - P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.74 inch)

      P(X < 0.75) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{0.75-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < -0.75) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.75)

                                                            = 1 - 0.7734 = 0.2266

      P(X [tex]\leq[/tex] 0.74) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] [tex]\frac{0.74-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] -3.25) = 1 - P(Z < 3.25)

                                                             = 1 - 0.9994 = 0.0006

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 0.75 and x = 3.25 in the z table which has an area of 0.7734 and 0.9994 respectively.

Therefore, P(0.74 inch < X < 0.75 inch) = 0.2266 - 0.0006 = 0.226.

(c) Probability that a ball bearing is above the upper specification limit is given by = P(X > 0.76 inch)

      P(X > 0.76) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] > [tex]\frac{0.76-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z > -1.75) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 1.75)

                                                            = 1 - 0.95994 = 0.0401

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 1.75 in the z table which has an area of 0.95994.

(d) Probability that a ball bearing is below the lower specification limit is given by = P(X < 0.74 inch)

      P(X < 0.74) = P( [tex]\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma} } }[/tex] < [tex]\frac{0.74-0.753}{0.004} } }[/tex] ) = P(Z < -3.25) = 1 - P(Z [tex]\leq[/tex] 3.25)

                                                            = 1 - 0.9994 = 0.0006

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 3.25 in the z table which has an area of 0.9994.

Using the normal distribution, it is found that there is a

a) 0.2734 = 27.34% probability that a ball bearing is between the target and the actual mean.

b) 0.226 = 22.6% probability that a ball bearing is between the lower specification limit and the target.

c) 0.0401 = 4.01% probability that a ball bearing is above the upper specification limit.

d) 0.0006 = 0.06% probability that a ball bearing is below the lower specification limit.

In a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.  After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.

In this problem:

Mean of 0.753 inch, hence [tex]\mu = 0.753[/tex].Standard deviation of 0.004 inch, hence [tex]\sigma = 0.004[/tex]

Item a:

This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 0.753 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.75.

X = 0.753:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.753 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0[/tex] has a p-value of 0.5

X = 0.75:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.75 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266

0.5 - 0.2266 = 0.2734

0.2734 = 27.34% probability that a ball bearing is between the target and the actual mean.

Item b:

This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 0.75 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.74, hence:

X = 0.75:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.75 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.2266

X = 0.74:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.74 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0006.

0.2266 - 0.0006 = 0.226

0.226 = 22.6% probability that a ball bearing is between the lower specification limit and the target.

Item c:

This probability is 1 subtracted by the p-value of Z when X = 0.76, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.76 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1.75[/tex] has a p-value of 0.9599.

1 - 0.9599 = 0.0401

0.0401 = 4.01% probability that a ball bearing is above the upper specification limit.

Item d:

This probability is the p-value of Z when X = 0.74, hence:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{0.74 - 0.753}{0.004}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -3.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0006.

0.0006 = 0.06% probability that a ball bearing is below the lower specification limit.

What is a Triangle?

A triangle is a plane figure or polygon with three sides and three angles.

A Triangle has three vertices and the sum of the interior angles add up to 180°

Let the Triangle be ΔABC , such that

∠A + ∠B + ∠C = 180°

The area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

For a right angle triangle

From the Pythagoras Theorem , The hypotenuse² = base² + height²

if a² + b² = c² , it is a right triangle

if a² + b² < c² , it is an obtuse triangle

if a² + b² > c² , it is an acute triangle

Given data ,

Let the area of the triangle be represented as A

Now , the value of A = 18 cm²

Let the base of the triangle be B

Let the height of the triangle be H = 6 cm

Now , area of the triangle = ( 1/2 ) x Length x Base

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

18 = ( 1/2 ) x B x 6

18 = 3B

Divide by 3 on both sides of the equation , we get

B = 6 cm

Hence , the base length of the triangle is B = 6 cm
