CHEGG When testing the claim that bags of M&M candies will have less than 3% broken pieces, which of the following would be

Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

H0: p ≥ 0.03 Ha: p < 0.03

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

2) Solution to the problem

On this case we want to test is $p$ , where:

$p$ represent the true proportion for the population of broken pieces

What we want to proof need's to be on the alternative hypothesis and the complement on the null hypothesis.

So the correct system of hypothesis for this case would be:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.03$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.03$

H0: p ≥ 0.03 Ha: p < 0.03

On a coordinate plane, line P Q goes through (negative 6, 4) and (4, negative 4). Point R On a coordinate plane, a line goes thr

Nitella [24]

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

Hope this helps!

A wheat farmer cuts down the stalks of wheat and gathers them in 200 piles. The 200 gathered piles will be put on a truck. The t

denpristay [2]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to estimate the total weight of grain on the field based on the data on a simple random sample of 5 piles out of 200. The population and sample sizes are N=200 & n=5 respectively.

1) Let Y_1,Y_2,...,Y_{200} be the weight of grain in the 200 piles and y_1,y_2,...,y_{5} be the weights of grain in the pile from the simple random sample.

We know, the sample mean is an unbiased estimator of the population mean. Therefore,

$\widehat{\mu}=\overline{y}=\frac{1}{5}\sum_{i=1}^{5}y_i=\frac{1}{5}(3.3+4.1+4.7+5.9+4.5)=4.5$

where \mu is the mean weight of grain for all the 200 piles.

Hence, the total grain weight of the population is

$\widehat{Y}=Y_1+Y_2+...+Y_{200}$

= $200\times \widehat{\mu}\: \: \: =200\times 4.5\: \: \: =900\, lbs$

2) To calculate a bound on the error of estimates, we need to find the sample standard deviation.

The sample standard deviation is

S= $\sqrt{\frac{1}{5-1}\sum_{i=1}^{5}(y_i-\overline{y})^2}\: \: \: =0.9486$

Then, the standard error of $\widehat{Y} is$

$\sigma_{\widehat{Y}} =\sqrt{\frac{N^2S^2}{n}\bigg(\frac{N-n}{N}\bigg)}\: \: \:$ =83.785

Hence, a 95% bound on the error of estimates is

$[\pm z_{0.025}\times \sigma_{\widehat{Y}}]\: \: \: =[\pm 1.96\times 83.875]\: \: \: =[\pm 164.395]$

3) Let x_1,x_2,...,x_5 denotes the total weight of the sampled piles.

Mean total weight of the sampled piles is

$\overline{x}=\frac{1}{5}\sum_{i=1}^{5}x_i=45$

The sample ratio is

$r=\frac{\overline{y}}{\overline{x}}=\frac{4.5}{45}$ =0.1 , this is also the estimate of the population ratio R= $\frac{\overline{Y}}{\overline{X}} .$

Therefore, the estimated total weight of grain in the population using ratio estimator is

$\widehat{Y}_R\: \: =r\times 8800\: \: =0.1\times 8800\: \: =880\,$ lbs

4) The variance of the ratio estimator is

var(r)= $\frac{N-n}{N}\frac{1}{n}\frac{1}{\mu_x^2}\frac{\sum_{i=1}^{5}(y_i-rx_i)^2}{n-1} , where \mu_x=8800/200=44lbs$

= $\frac{200-5}{200}\, \frac{1}{5}\: \frac{1}{44^2}\, \frac{0.2}{5-1}=0.000005$

Hence, the standard error of the estimate of the total population is

$\sigma_R=\sqrt{X^2 \: var(r)}\: \: \: =\sqrt{8800^2\times 0.000005}\: \: \:$ =21.556

Hence, a 95% bound on the error of estimates is

$[\pm z_{0.025}\times \sigma_{R}]\: \: \: =[\pm 1.96\times 21.556]\: \: \: =[\pm 42.25]$
