Svetach [21]

Presumably you should be doing this using calculus methods, namely computing the surface integral along $\mathbf r(u,v)$ .

But since $\mathbf r(u,v)$ describes a sphere, we can simply recall that the surface area of a sphere of radius $a$ is $4\pi a^2$ .

In calculus terms, we would first find an expression for the surface element, which is given by

$\displaystyle\iint_S\mathrm dS=\iint_S\left\|\frac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial u}\times\frac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial v}\right\|\,\mathrm du\,\mathrm dv$

$\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial u}=a\cos u\cos v\,\mathbf i+a\cos u\sin v\,\mathbf j-a\sin u\,\mathbf k$
$\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial v}=-a\sin u\sin v\,\mathbf i+a\sin u\cos v\,\mathbf j$
$\implies\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial v}=a^2\sin^2u\cos v\,\mathbf i+a^2\sin^2u\sin v\,\mathbf j+a^2\sin u\cos u\,\mathbf k$
$\implies\left\|\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial u}\times\dfrac{\partial\mathbf r}{\partial v}\right\|=a^2\sin u$

So the area of the surface is

$\displaystyle\iint_S\mathrm dS=\int_{u=0}^{u=\pi}\int_{v=0}^{v=2\pi}a^2\sin u\,\mathrm dv\,\mathrm du=2\pi a^2\int_{u=0}^{u=\pi}\sin u$
$=-2\pi a^2(\cos\pi-\cos 0)$
$=-2\pi a^2(-1-1)$
$=4\pi a^2$

as expected.

A nationwide sample of influential Republicans and Democrats was asked as a part of a comprehensive survey whether they favored

pickupchik [31]

Answer:

We conclude that there is an equal or larger proportion of Republicans in favor of lowering the standards.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The complete question is</u>: A nationwide sample of influential Republicans and Democrats was asked as a part of a comprehensive survey whether they favored lowering environmental standards so that high-sulfur coal could be burned in coal-fired power plants. The results were:

Number sampled: 1,000 (republican) , 800 (democrats)

Number in favor: 200 (republican) , 168 (democrats)

At the 0.02 level of significance, can we conclude that there is a larger proportion of Democrats in favor of lowering the standards? Determine the p-value.

Let $p_1$ = <u><em>proportion of Republicans in favor of lowering the standards</em></u>.

$p_2$ = <u><em>proportion of Democrats in favor of lowering the standards</em></u>.

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $p_1 \geq p_2$ {means that there is an equal or larger proportion of Republicans in favor of lowering the standards}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $p_1 < p_2$ {means that there is a larger proportion of Democrats in favor of lowering the standards}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>Two-sample z-test for</u> <u>proportions</u>;

T.S. = $\frac{(\hat p_1-\hat p_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p_1(1-\hat p_1)}{n_1}+\frac{\hat p_2(1-\hat p_2)}{n_2} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\hat p_1$ = sample proportion of Republicans in favor of lowering the standards = $\frac{200}{1000}$ = 0.20

$\hat p_2$ = sample proportion of Democrats in favor of lowering the standards = $\frac{168}{800}$ = 0.21

$n_1$ = sample of Republicans = 1000

$n_2$ = sample of Democrats = 800

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u> = $\frac{(0.20-0.21)-(0)}{\sqrt{\frac{0.20(1-0.20)}{1000}+\frac{0.21(1-0.21)}{800} } }$

= -0.52

The value of z test statistics is -0.52.

<u>Now, P-value of the test statistics is given by the following formula; </u>

P-value = P(Z < -0.52) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 0.52)

= 1 - 0.6985 = 0.3015

Now, at 0.02 significance level, the z table gives a critical value of -2.054 for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as -0.52 > -2.054, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which <em><u>we fail to reject our null hypothesis</u></em>.

Therefore, we conclude that there is an equal or larger proportion of Republicans in favor of lowering the standards.
