giving a holiday. The researcher asks 1,000 random selected students if they would support making the Tuesday before Thanksgiving a holiday. Seven hundred students said that they would support the extra holiday. What is the null and alternative hypothesis?

Answer:

The null hypothesis is, {H₀}: p = 0.66, H₀: p = 0.66 .

The alternative hypothesis is, {Hₐ}: p > 0.66, Hₐ: p > 0.66

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p represent the proportion of students who are supportive of making the day before Thanksgiving a holiday.

Since two populations are considered, the alternative hypothesis for the difference of the means of the two populations has to be stated.

The proportion of two-third students are supportive of making the day before Thanksgiving a holiday is p = 0.66 obtained as shown below:

The null hypothesis is,

{H₀}:p = 0.66, H₀: p = 0.66

The alternative hypothesis is,

{Hₐ:p > 0.66, Ha: p > 0.66

The null hypothesis is, {H₀}: p = 0.66, H₀: p=0.66 .

The alternative hypothesis is, {Hₐ}: p > 0.66, Hₐ: p > 0.66

9 out of 10 people at a game are rooting for the home team. What is the probability that exactly 6 of 8 people sitting together

scZoUnD [109]

A random supporter roots the home team with probability 0.9, and the away team with probability 0.1.

Choosing 6 out of 8 supporters who root for the home team has probability

$\displaystyle\binom{8}{6}\cdot 0.9^6\cdot 0.1^2 = 28\cdot0.531441\cdot 0.01=0.14$

Harrison has 30 cds in his music collection. If 40% of the cds are country and 30% are pop, how many are other types of music

Pavel [41]

Well you have to find out how many cd is 40% and 30%
30% = 30x.3=9
40% = 30x.4=16
now add 16 and 9
16+9=25 now subtract 25 from 30 and see that you have 5 cd of a different type of music to find that as a % divide 5 by 35 to get .14 I rounded it to the nearest hundreth now move the decimal over 2 spots to get 14%

Given right triangle XYZ, what is the value of tan(60°)?

Svetlanka [38]

we know that

Step $1$

in the right triangle XYZ

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

Find the value of ZY

$XY^{2}=XZ^{2} +ZY^{2} \\ ZY^{2}=XY^{2}-XZ^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=42^{2}-21^{2}\\ ZY^{2}=1,323\\ ZY=\sqrt{1,323}\ units$

$ZY=21\sqrt{3}\ units$

Step $2$

in the right triangle XYZ

Find tan $60$ °

we know that

$tan\ 60=\frac{opposite\ side\ angle\ 60}{adjacent\ side\ angle\ 60}$

in this problem

opposite side angle $60$ is ZY

adjacent side angle $60$ is XZ

so

$tan\ 60=\frac{ZY}{XZ} \\ \\ tan\ 60=\frac{21\sqrt{3}}{21} \\ \\ tan\ 60=\sqrt{3}$

therefore

the answer is

$\sqrt{3}$

How do i do this some one please explain

Talja [164]

Well since we already have our unit per mile.

We know that 1 mile = $3.50

And that the tow company towed the car 12 miles.

So we would have to multiply 12 by $3.50

soo..

12 x $3.50 = $42.00

So your answer is D. $42.00
