Well you didn't post the expressions but let X be the amount of money for first place. This means X-50 would be the amount of second place because <span>each subsequent place after 1st wins $50 less than the previous place. Thirds, would be X-50-50 or X-100

Thus the total amount of money would be all of the values combined which is X+X-50+X-100=3X-150

deff fn [24]
The answer would be $1.75 (Rounded off to the nearest cent).

Substitute the given cost of each pint of fruit to the equation. Transpose and simplify, to get the price of a pint of veggies.
Given: <span>5v + 7f = 28.70; f = $2.85
Solution: </span><span>5v + 7(2.85) = 28.70
                </span><span>5v + 19.95 = 28.70
                5v = 8.75
                  v = 1.75</span>

If 40% of a number is 32, what is 25% of that number?
Mekhanik [1.2K]
Well what I would do is split the 40% into 20% so from 40% to 20% that is /2. So 32/2=16 so 20% of a number is 16, we know there is 5, 20% in 100% so multiply 16 and 5 which gives you 80. Now 25% of 80 is the same as 80*.25 or 80/4 which is 20

A food distributor is being sued for racial discrimination because 12% of newly hired candidates are not white when 53% of all a
Musya8 [376]

Answer:

Check Explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

A) The null hypothesis would be that the proportion of newly hired candidates that are not white is not significantly different from the proportion of the applicants that are not white & there is no significant evidence that the company's hiring practices are discriminatory.

Mathematically,

H₀: μ₀ = 0.53

And the alternative hypothesis would be that there is a significant difference between the proportion of newly hired candidates that are not white is not significantly different from the proportion of the applicants that are not white. More specifically, that the proportion of newly hired candidates that are not white is significantly less than the proportion of applicants that are not white & there is significant evidence that the company's hiring practices are indeed discriminatory.

Mathematically,

Hₐ: μ₀ < 0.53

B) The two errors that can come up in this hypothesis testing include -

Type I error: We reject the null hypothesis because we obtain that the proportion of newly hired candidates that are not white is significantly less than the proportion of applicants that are not white and conclude that there is indeed significant evidence that the company's hiring practices are discriminatory when in reality, there is no significant difference and hence, no discrimination.

Type II error: We accept the null hypothesis (fail to reject the null hypothesis) because we obtained that there is no significant difference between the proportion of newly hired candidates that are not white & th proportion of applicants that are not white and conclude that there is no discrimination in the company's hiring practices when in reality, there is significant difference in the stated proportions above and significant evidence that there is indeed significant evidence that the company's hiring practices are discriminatory.

C) The power of the test increases as the significance level reduces. This is because t-statistic increases as significance level reduces.

D) The standard error of the mean used in computing the t-score is given as

σₓ = (σ/√n)

It is evident that as the value of n increases, the standard error reduces and this widens the effect of the test, hence, the power of the test increases.

Hope this Helps!!!
