A powerful women's group has claimed that men and women differ in attitudes about sexual discrimination. A group of 50 men (group 1) and 40 women (group 2) were asked if they thought sexual discrimination is a problem in the United States. Of those sampled, 11 of the men and 19 of the women did believe that sexual discrimination is a problem. Find the value of the test statistic. Round to two decimal places.
A. Z= - 1.20
B. Z= -2.55
C. Z= -1.05
D. Z= -0.85

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Z= -2.55

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, first we need to understand the central limit theroem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction of normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the subtraction of the means while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

11 of 50 men believe that sexual discrimination is a problem:

This means that:

[tex]p_M = \frac{11}{50} = 0.22, s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.22*0.78}{50}} = 0.0586[/tex]

19 of 40 women believe that sexual discrimination is a problem:

This means what:

[tex]p_W = \frac{19}{40} = 0.475,  s_W = \sqrt{\frac{0.475*0.525}{40}} = 0.079[/tex]

Difference between the proportion of men and women:

[tex]p_D = p_M - p_W = 0.22 - 0.475 = -0.255[/tex]

[tex]s_D = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_W^2} = \sqrt{0.0586^2+0.079^2} = 0.0984[/tex]

A powerful women's group has claimed that men and women differ in attitudes about sexual discrimination.

This means that the null hypothesis is that they do not differ, than is, the difference is 0. So

[tex]H_0: p_D = 0[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that they differ, that is, the difference is different of 0. So

[tex]H_a: p_D \neq 0[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis and s is the standard error.

0 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0[/tex]

For the sample, we calculated that:

[tex]X = -0.255, s = 0.0984[/tex]

The value of the test-statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{-0.255 - 0}{0.0984}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.59[/tex]

Closes answer is Z = -2.55, option B.

Triangle PQR has vertices P(−3,4), Q(−8,3), and R(−1,−6). Triangle PQR is dilated by a scale factor of 8 centered at the origin to get triangle P′Q′R′.
What are the coordinates of points P′, Q′, and R′ of the image?

P′(−38,−12), Q′(−1,38), R′(−18,−34)
P′(−3,32), Q′(−8,24), R′(−1,−48)
P′(−24,4), Q′(−64,3), R′(−8,−6)
P′(−24,32), Q′(−64,24), R′(−8,−48)

Answers

Answer:

The coordinates of points P', Q' and R' are (-24, 32), (-64, 24) and (-8,-48), respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Vectorially speaking, the dilation of a vector with respect to a given point is defined by the following formula:

[tex]P'(x,y) = O(x,y) + r\cdot [P(x,y)-O(x,y)][/tex], [tex]r > 1[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]O(x,y)[/tex] - Point of reference.

[tex]P(x,y)[/tex] - Original point.

[tex]P'(x,y)[/tex] - Dilated point.

[tex]r[/tex] - Scale factor.

If we know that [tex]O(x,y) = (0,0)[/tex], [tex]P(x,y) = (-3, 4)[/tex], [tex]Q(x,y) = (-8,3)[/tex], [tex]R(x,y) = (-1,-6)[/tex] and [tex]r = 8[/tex], then the new coordinates of the triangle are, respectively:

[tex]P'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-3,4)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]P'(x,y) = (-24, 32)[/tex]

[tex]Q'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-8,3)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]Q'(x,y) = (-64, 24)[/tex]

[tex]R'(x,y) = (0,0) + 8\cdot [(-1,-6)-(0,0)][/tex]

[tex]R'(x,y) = (-8,-48)[/tex]

The coordinates of points P', Q' and R' are (-24, 32), (-64, 24) and (-8,-48), respectively.

Answer:

(-24, 32), (-64, 24) and (-8,-48)

The model represents that 4 divided by 1/3 is 12.

Keep in mind that dividing fractions is the same is multiplying by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of 1/3 is 3/1, or just 3.

The image shows a 4 being divided into 4 groups of 3. When you count the boxes, you can see that there are 12. This means that whatever equation you do, you will want your answer to be 12.

As we stated above, 4 divided by 1/3 is really just 4*3, which equals 12. This confirms that the correct answer is B.

How many cubic blocks are needed to fill the fish tank?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Width = 16yd[/tex]

[tex]Height =\frac{1}{3}yd[/tex]

Required

Number of cubic blocks to fill the tank

To do this, we simply calculate the volume of the tank by:

[tex]Volume = Length * Width * Height[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]Volume = \frac{1}{2} * 16 * \frac{1}{3}[/tex]

[tex]Volume = \frac{16}{6}[/tex]

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $7.50 and kids under 12 pay only $6.00. If 80 tickets are sold for a total of $525, how many of the tickets were adult tickets and how many were sold to kids under 12?

They sold ___ adult tickets and _____ kids tickets.

Answers

Answer:

They sold 30 adult tickets and 50 kids tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of adult tickets sold

y is the number of kids tickets sold.

80 tickets are sold

This means that [tex]x + y = 80[/tex], or also, [tex]x = 80 - y[/tex]

For a Saturday matinee, adult tickets cost $7.50 and kids under 12 pay only $6.00. Tickets were sold for a total of $525.

This means that:

[tex]7.5x + 6y = 525[/tex]

Since [tex]x = 80 - y[/tex]

[tex]7.5(80 - y) + 6y = 525[/tex]

[tex]600 - 7.5y + 6y = 525[/tex]

[tex]1.5y = 75[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{75}{1.5} = 50[/tex]

[tex]x = 80 - y = 80 - 50 = 30[/tex]

They sold 30 adult tickets and 50 kids tickets.

The surface area of any prism is the total area of all its sides and faces. A triangular prism has three rectangular sides and two triangular faces. To find the area of the rectangular sides, use the formula A = lw, where A = area, l = length, and h = height. To find the area of the triangular faces, use the formula A = 1/2bh, where A = area, b = base, and h = height. Once you have the areas of all sides and faces, you simply add them together to get the surface area.

Step-by-step explanation:

You were born, your mother deposited 2000 in an account that pays 5% simple interest. How much would the balance be in your account when you enter college 18 years after?

A. 18000
B. 1800
C. 3800
D. 20000

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula for simple interest is given as A=P(1+rt), where A is the final balance, P is the initial principal balance (the amount of money that you start out with), r is the annual interest rate, and t is the time

we know that the mom deposited 2000 into an account when the person was born. This is our initial principal balance (the amount of money started out with)

substitute that value into the formula to get:

A=2000(1+rt)

we also know the rate, which is 5% and the time, which is 18

5%=0.05 (we need it as a decimal)

so substituting the values into the equation:

A=2000(1+0.05*18)

A=2000(1+0.9)

A=2000(1.9)

A=3,800

therefore the answer is C

Find the surface area of a number cube if the height is 3cm.

Answers

Answer: 54 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area we have to:

1) Multiply 3 x 3= 9 (we do this because a cube has equal sides so if the height is 3 then the base will be 3).

2) Then take 9 and multiply it by the number of sides of a cube (6 sides)

so, do 9 x 6 = 54cm²

Hope that helped! :)

Answer:

54 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

here's your solution

==> surface area of cube = 6a^2

==> a = 3 cm

==> surface area = 6*3^2

==> surface area = 6*9

==> surface area of cube = 54 cm^3
