In a study of contamination of fish in the nations' rivers and lakes, the EPA found that 91% of water quality test sites showed the presence of PCB, a cancer-causing agent. Suppose a follow-up study of 200 rivers and lakes in 2018 showed the presence of PCB in 177 cases. Does the statistical evidence support the conclusion that as of 2018 water clean-up programs have reduced the proportion of locations with PCB? Use as level of significance. Based on the above, the hypothesis statement and decision are A. The alternative hypothesis is less than.91/Do not reject the null B. The null hypothesis is greater than and equal to.886/Do not reject the null C. The null hypothesis is less than .855/Do not accept the nul D. The alternative hypothesis is greater than .91 /Do not acoept the null E. The nullis less than .91 /Do not reject the null

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. The alternative hypothesis is less than.91/Do not reject the null

Null hypothesis: H0 = 0.91

Alternative hypothesis: Ha < 0.91

z = -1.24

P value = P(Z<-1.24) = 0.11

Rule

If;

P-value > significance level --- accept Null hypothesis

P-value < significance level --- reject Null hypothesis

Z score > Z(at 95% confidence interval) ---- reject Null hypothesis

Z score < Z(at 95% confidence interval) ------ accept Null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

n=200 represent the random sample taken

Null hypothesis: H0 = 0.91

Alternative hypothesis: Ha < 0.91

Test statistic z score can be calculated with the formula below;

z = (p^−po)/√{po(1−po)/n}

Where,

z= Test statistics

n = Sample size = 200

po = Null hypothesized value = 0.91

p^ = Observed proportion = 177/200 = 0.885

Substituting the values we have

z = (0.885-0.91)/√(0.91(1-0.91)/200)

z = −1.23541552776

z = -1.24

To determine the p value (test statistic) at 0.05 significance level, using a one tailed hypothesis.

P value = P(Z<-1.24) = 0.107488 = 0.11

Since z at 0.05 significance level is between -1.96 and +1.96 and the z score for the test (z = -1.24) which falls with the region bounded by Z at 0.05 significance level. And also the one-tailed hypothesis P-value is 0.11 which is higher than 0.05. Then we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that at 5% significance level the null hypothesis is valid, therefore do not reject null.

When the volume of a gas is

changed from mL to 852 mL,

the temperature will change from

315°C to 452°C.

Answers

Answer: The initial volume is 593.76mL

Step-by-step explanation:

As you do not say anithing about the pressure, i guess that the pressure remains constant.

If the gas is an ideal gas, we have:

P*V = n*R*T

where P is pressure, n is number of moles and R is a constant.

Now, initially we have:

P*Vi = n*R*315°C

finally we have:

P*825mL = n*R*452°C

Now we can take the quiotient of those two equations and get:

(P*Vi)/(P*852mL) = (n*R*315°C)/( n*R*452°C)

Now we have:

Vi/852mL = 315/452

Vi =  (315/452)*852mL = 593.76mL

So when we expand the gas at constant pressure, we increase the temperature.

Find the number of unique permutations of the letters in the word: EXTENT

Answers

Answer:

180

Step-by-step explanation:

A word has n letters.

There are m repeating letters, each of them repeating [tex]r_{0}, r_{1}, ..., r_{m}[/tex] times

So the number of distincts ways the letters can be permutated is:

[tex]N_{A} = \frac{n!}{r_{1}! \times r_{2}! \times ... \times r_{m}}[/tex]

In this question:

Extent has 6 letters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking at Fibonacci numbers ;

We have:

Than X1 =1 ; X2 = 1; X3 = 2

Xn+1 = Xn + Xn-1

X3 = X2 + X1 = 1+1 =2; X4 = X3 + X2 = 2 +1 = 3; X5= X4+X3 = 3+2 = 5; X6 = X5 + X4 = 5 + 3 = 8; X7 = X6 +X5 = 8 +5 = 13; X8 = X7 + X6 = 13 + 8 = 21; X9 = X8 + X7 = 21+ 13 = 34 ; X10 = X9 + X8 = 34 +21 = 55 ; X11 = X10 + X9 = 55 +34 = 89

The question is not complete. The complete question is;

Triangle RST is drawn inside rectangle RSNM. Point T is halfway between points M and N on the rectangle. The length of side RS is 9 in. and the length of side RM is 8 in.

1) What is the area of triangle RST?

2)What is the ratio of area of  triangle RST to area of triangle RMT?

3) What is the area of rectangle RSMN to area of triangle TSN?

Diagram is attached.

Answer:

1) 36 sq.in

2) 2:1

3) 4:1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Area of triangle is; ½ × base × height.

For triangle RST, base = 9 in and height = 8 in

Thus, area of triangle RST = ½ × 9 × 8

= 36 sq.in

2)Area of triangle RMT = ½ × 8 × 9/2

= 18 sq.in

Ratio of area of RST to area of RMT = 36/18 = 2:1

3)Area of triangle TSN = ½ × 8 × 9/2 = 18 sq.in

Area of Rectangle RSNM = Length x width = 9 × 8 = 72 sq.in

Ratio of Area of Rectangle RSNM to Area of triangle TSN  = 72/18 = 4:1

Students at a certain school were​ surveyed, and it was estimated that 20​% of college students abstain from drinking alcohol. To estimate this proportion in your​ school, how large a random sample would you need to estimate it to within 0.08 with probability 0.95​, if before conducting the study​ (a) you are unwilling to predict the proportion value at your school and​ (b) you use the results from the surveyed school as a guideline.

Answers

Answer:

a) A sample size of at least 251 students is needed.

b) A sample of at least 97 students is needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

95% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].

(a) you are unwilling to predict the proportion value at your school

We need a sample size of at least n.

n is found when M = 0.08.

We wont predict a proportion value for the school, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]

So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.5*0.5}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5*0.5}}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.5*0.5}}{0.08})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 150.1[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample size of at least 251 is needed.

(b) you use the results from the surveyed school as a guideline.

Now we have that [tex]\pi = 0.2[/tex]

So

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.2*0.8}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.08\sqrt{n} = 1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^{2} = (\frac{1.96\sqrt{0.2*0.8}}{0.08})^{2}[/tex]

[tex]n = 96.04[/tex]

Rounding up

A sample of at least 97 students is needed.

A polar bear migrate north during winter to hunt for its food on sea ice. The daily average temperature decreases 3°C for every 100 km traveled. At the start of the bear's journey, the temperature is 2"C. What is the temperature after 200 km of its journey ?

Answers

Answer:

The average temperature after 200 kilometers of journey is -4 °C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The situation shows that change in average temperature is directly proportional to travelled distance:

[tex]T = 2^{\circ}C - \frac{3^{\circ}C}{100\,km} \cdot (200\,km)[/tex]

[tex]T = -4^{\circ}C[/tex]

The average temperature after 200 kilometers of journey is -4 °C.

Answer:

The temperature after 200 km of its journey is -4°C

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the new temperature, first, you need to find how much the temperature decreases, and then subtract this temperature decrease to the initial temperature.

The temperature decreases 3°C for every 100 km travelled, then, after 200 km the temperature decreases 2*3 = 6 °C.

At the start of the bear's journey, the temperature was 2 °C, after 200 km the temperature is 2 - 6 = -4°C

4(1 - x) + 2 x= -3( x + 1)

Answers

Answer:

x = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

4 (1 - x) + 2 x = -3 (x + 1)

4 (1 - x) = 4 - 4 x:

2 x + 4 - 4 x = -3 (x + 1)

2 x - 4 x = -2 x:

-2 x + 4 = -3 (x + 1)

Expand out terms of the right hand side:

4 - 2 x = -3 x - 3

Add 3 x to both sides:

3 x - 2 x + 4 = (3 x - 3 x) - 3

3 x - 3 x = 0:

3 x - 2 x + 4 = -3

3 x - 2 x = x:

x + 4 = -3

Subtract 4 from both sides:

x + (4 - 4) = -4 - 3

4 - 4 = 0:

x = -4 - 3

-4 - 3 = -7:

45 sweets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gavin gets 7(7+3+2) = 7/12 of the sweets.

Dan gets  2 /12  so   Gavin gets 7/2 times as much as Dan

Let Dan get x sweets then

x + 75 = 7x /2

7x/2 - x = 75

5x/2 = 75

x = 75 * 2/5 = 30 sweets.

So Dan gets 30 sweets , Gavin gets 105 sweets and  Colin gets  3/2 * 30

= 45 sweets.
