Answer: Third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

1st Quartile of 3rd class period = 78

For 1st class period,

1st Quartile = 70

3rd Quartile = 85

IQR = Q₃-Q₁

$IQR=85-70\\\\IQR=15$

According to question,

IQR of 3rd class period is one - third of the IQR of 1st class period.

So, it becomes

$IQR_3=\dfrac{1}{3}\times IQR_{1}\\\\IQR_3=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 15\\\\IQR_3=5$

Now, we need to find the value of 3rd quartile of the scores from 3rd period.

$IQR_3=Q_3-Q_1\\\\5=Q_3-78\\\\5+78=Q_3\\\\Q_3=83$

Hence, Third option is correct.

There are three choices of jellybeans - grape ,cherry and orange. if the probability of getting a grape is 3/10 and the probabil

muminat

When looking at probabilities, two ideas are always true.

1) Any probability is more than 0.

2) The sum of all the probabilites is 1.

Idea #2 works here. (For example, think of how a die has six things and the probability of each is 1/6. So 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1.) Let G = the probability of grape, C = probability of cherry and O = the probability of orange. From Idea #2, G + C + O = 1. Since we know G and C, then

3/10 + 1/5 + O = 1.

3/10 + 2/10 + O = 1

5/10 + O = 1

O = 5/10

Thus, the probability of an orange jelly bean is 5/10 = 1/2.

Answer:

test statistic (Z) is 2.5767 and p-value of the test is .009975

Step-by-step explanation:

$H_{0}$ : percentage of students who smoke did not change

$H_{a}$ : percentage of students who smoke has changed

z-statistic for the sample proportion can be calculated as follows:

z= $\frac{p(s)-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p*(1-p)}{N} } }$ where

p(s) is the sample proportion of smoking students ( $\frac{50}{200}$ =0.25)

p is the proportion of smoking students in the survey conducted five years ago (18% or 0.18)
N is the sample size (200)

Then, z= $\frac{0.25-0.18}{\sqrt{\frac{0.18*0.82}{200} } }$ ≈ 2.5767

What is being surveyed is if the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years, therefore we need to seek two tailed p-value, which is .009975.

This p value is significant at 99% confidence level. Since .009975 <α/2=0.005, there is significant evidence that the percentage of students who smoke has changed over the last five years
