Step-by-step explanation:
=
A rectangular pool 18 meters by 12 meters is surrounded by a walkway of width x
1 answer:
Answer:
x=3 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the area of the rectangular pool
we have
substitute
step 2
Find the area of rectangular pool including the area of the walkway
Let
x ----> the width of the walkway
we have
substitute
step 3
Find the area of the walkway
To find out the area of the walkway subtract the area of the pool from the area of rectangular pool including the area of the walkway
so
step 4
Find the value of x if the area of the walkway equal the area of the pool
so
Solve for x
Solve the quadratic equation by graphing
The solution is x=3 meters

Given:
Amount in the bank account = $1850
Monthly payment of can loan = $400.73
To find:
When would automatic payments make the value of the account zero?
Solution:
Craig stops making deposits to that account. So, amount $1850 in the bank account is used to make monthly payment of can loan.
On dividing the amount by monthly payment, we get
It means, the amount is sufficient for 4 payment but for the 5th payment the amount is not sufficient.
Therefore, the 5th automatic payments make the value of the account zero.
Answer:
Null hypothesis:
Alternative hypothesis:
So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed we have
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
estimated proportion of applicants who request financial aid
is the value that we want to test
represent the significance level
z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)
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:
Alternative hypothesis:
When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:
(1)
The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion is significantly different from a hypothesized value
.
Calculate the statistic
Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:
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:
So the p value obtained was a very low value and using the significance level assumed we have
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
