Twelve of the 20 students in Mr. Skinner’s class brought lunch from home. Fourteen of the 21 students in Ms. Cho’s class brought

lunch from home. Siloni is using two 15-section spinners to simulate randomly selecting students from each class and predicting whether they brought lunch from home or will buy lunch in the cafeteria.
If each spinner is divided into 15 congruent sectors, how does the spinner representing Mr. Skinner’s class differ from the spinner representing Ms. Cho’s class?
One more sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.
One fewer sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.
Two more sectors of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.
Two fewer sectors of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.

Solution:

Number of students in Mr.Skinner's class who brought lunch from home if there are 20 students in the class=12

Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Mr. Skinner's class=\frac{12}{20}=\frac{3}{5}

Number of students in Ms. Cho's class who brought lunch from home if there are 21 students in the class=14

Fraction of students who brought lunch from home in Ms. Cho's class=\frac{14}{21}=\frac{2}{3}

As Siloni is using  two 15-section spinners to simulate randomly selecting students from each class and predicting whether they brought lunch from home or will buy lunch in the cafeteria.

Number of Congruent sectors in each Spinner=15

So, if we represent students from Mr. Skinner's class who brought lunch from home in Spinner having 15 congruent Sectors =\frac{9}{15}

So, if we represent students from Mrs. Cho's class who brought lunch from home in Spinner having 15 congruent Sectors =\frac{10}{15}

Mr Skinner class +1 = Mr's Cho's Class

So Ms Cho's class =One more sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home.

Option A which is One more sector of the Skinner-class spinner will represent bringing lunch from home represents Ms Cho's Class.

A quality control technician works in a factory that produces computer monitors. Each day, she randomly selects monitors and tes
jeka94

Answer:

There is enough evidence to support the claim that the true proportion of monitors with dead pixels is greater than 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Sample size, n = 300

p = 5% = 0.05

Alpha, α = 0.05

Number of dead pixels , x = 24

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis  

H_{0}: p = 0.05\\H_A: p > 0.05

This is a one-tailed(right) test.  

Formula:

\hat{p} = \dfrac{x}{n} = \dfrac{24}{300} = 0.08

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

Putting the values, we get,

z = \displaystyle\frac{0.08-0.05}{\sqrt{\frac{0.05(1-0.05)}{300}}} = 2.384

Now, we calculate the p-value from excel.

P-value = 0.00856

Since the p-value is smaller than the significance level, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Conclusion:

Thus, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the true proportion of monitors with dead pixels is greater than 5%.

Determine whether each statement is true or false. If a statement is true, give a reason or cite an appropriate statement from t
Over [174]

Answer:

1) a. False, adding a multiple of one column to another does not change the value of the determinant.

2) d. True, column-equivalent matrices are matrices that can be obtained from each other by performing elementary column operations on the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If the multiple of one column of a matrix A is added to another to form matrix B then we get: |A| = |B|. Here, the value of the determinant does not change. The correct option is A

a. False, adding a multiple of one column to another does not change the value of the determinant.

2) Two matrices can be column-equivalent when one matrix is changed to the other using a sequence of elementary column operations. Correc option is d.

d. True, column-equivalent matrices are matrices that can be obtained from each other by performing elementary column operations on the other.
