Which sum or difference is modeled by the algebra tiles?

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

James and Terry open a savings account that has a 2.75% annual interest rate, compounded monthly. They deposit $500 into the acc

katovenus [111]

Answer:

<h2>Option A is the answer(here the answer is calculated taking the whole value, without approximating it to a nearest value)</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual interest rate is 2.75%. Hence, the monthly interest rate is $\frac{2.75}{12}$

The amount will be compounded $(20\times12) = 240$ times.

Every month they deposits $500.

In the first month that deposited $500 will be compounded 240 times.

It will be $500\times [1 + \frac{2.75}{1200} ]^{240}$

In the second month $500 will be deposited again, this time it will be compounded 239 times.

It will give $500\times [1 + \frac{2.75}{1200} ]^{239}$

Hence, the total after 20 years will be $500\times [1 + \frac{2.75}{1200} ]^{240} + 500\times [1 + \frac{2.75}{1200} ]^{239} + ........+ 500\times [1 + \frac{2.75}{1200} ]^{1} = 160110.6741$

If value of cos330° is √3/2 then find tan165°.

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

-2+sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When cos(angle)=sqrt(3)/2

then sin(of that angle)= + or - 1/2 depending on the quadrant

Anyways 330 degrees is in the 4 quadrant. Cosine is positive there while sine is negative.

so sin(330)=-1/2

Formula for tan(x/2)=(1-cos(x))/sin(x)

Therefore tan(165)=tan(330/2)=(1-cos(330))/sin(330)=(1-sqrt(3)/2)/(-1/2)

Multiply top and bottom by 2 to get

tan(165)=(2-sqrt(3))/-1

tan(165)=-2+sqrt(3)
