Brianna’s teacher asks her which of these three expressions are equivalent to each other. Expression A: 9x - 3x - 4 Expression B

: 12x - 4 Expression C: 5x + x - 4 Brianna says that all three expressions are equivalent because the value of each one is - 4 when x = 0. Brianna’s thinking is incorrect. Identify the error in Brianna’s thinking. Determine which of the three expressions are equivalent. Explain or show your process in determining which expressions are equivalent in the space provided.

Brianna's thinking is wrong because obviously all of the expressions are going to equal -4 when x is 0 because -4 would be the only value. Also, if x was a different number, the expressions wouldn't be equivalent. The equivalent expressions are A. 9x - 3x - 4, and C. 5x + x - 4. This is because when both are simplified, they equal 6x - 4.

To plan the budget for next year a college must update its estimate of the proportion of next year's freshmen class that will ne
Naily [24]

Answer:

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.35  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.35  

z=\frac{0.447 -0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{150}}}=2.491  

p_v =P(z>2.491)=0.0064  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of applicants who request financial aid is significantly higher than 0.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=150 represent the random sample taken

X=67 represent the applicants who request financial aid

\hat p=\frac{67}{150}=0.447 estimated proportion of applicants who request financial aid

p_o=0.35 is the value that we want to test

\alpha represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value (variable of interest)  

Concepts and formulas to use  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion of applicants who request financial aid is higher than 0.35.:  

Null hypothesis:p\leq 0.35  

Alternative hypothesis:p > 0.35  

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:  

z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}} (1)  

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion \hat p is significantly different from a hypothesized value p_o.

Calculate the statistic  

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:  

z=\frac{0.447 -0.35}{\sqrt{\frac{0.35(1-0.35)}{150}}}=2.491  

Statistical decision  

It's important to refresh the p value method or p value approach . "This method is about determining "likely" or "unlikely" by determining the probability assuming the null hypothesis were true of observing a more extreme test statistic in the direction of the alternative hypothesis than the one observed". Or in other words is just a method to have an statistical decision to fail to reject or reject the null hypothesis.  

The next step would be calculate the p value for this test.  

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(z>2.491)=0.0064  

So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can said that at 5% of significance the proportion of applicants who request financial aid is significantly higher than 0.35

Consider a single spin of the spinner.

Answer:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Step-by-step explanation:

Mutually exclusive means the events will have no intersection.

Let's look at your first choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on an even number"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on an even number would be 2 or 4.

There is an intersection (they contain a common element), the 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your second choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a number greater than 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on a number greater than 3 would be just 4.

There is an intersection; they both contain 4.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your third choice:

"landing on a shaded portion and landing on a 3"

Landing on a shaded portion would be 1 or 4.

Landing on 3 would just be 3.

There is no common elements in the lists listed.  These events have no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fourth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on an odd number"

Landing on a unshaded portion would be 2 or 3.

Landing on an odd number would be 1 or 3.

There is an intersection; they both have 3 in common.

These events are not mutually exclusive.

Let's look at your fifth choice:

"landing on an unshaded portion and landing on a number less than 2 "

Landing on an unshaded portion would 2 or 3.

Landing on a number less than 2 would be 1.

There is no intersection.

These events are mutually exclusive.

densk [106]

Answer:

The probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is 0.0125.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the results of 1000 simulations, each simulating a sample of 80 customers, assuming there are 90 percent satisfied customers.

Let \hat p = <u><em>sample proportion of satisfied customers</em></u>

The z-score probability distribution for the sample proportion is given by;

                                Z  =  \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, p = population proportion of satisfied customers = 90%

            n = sample of customers = 80

Now, the probability of getting a sample with 80% satisfied customers or less is given by = P( \hat p \leq 80%)

  P( \hat p \leq 80%) = P( \frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{\hat p(1-\hat p)}{n} } } \leq \frac{0.80-0.90}{\sqrt{\frac{0.80(1-0.80)}{80} } } ) = P(Z \leq -2.24) = 1 - P(Z < 2.24)

                                                                  = 1 - 0.9875 = <u>0.0125</u>

The above probability is calculated by looking at the value of x = 2.24 in the z table which has an area of 0.9875.
