To test the ability of mechanics to identify simple engine problems, a car with a single such problem was taken in turn to 72 different car repair facilities. Only 42 of the 72 mechanics who worked on the car correctly identified the problem. Does this strongly indicate that the true proportion of mechanics who could identify this problem is less than 0.75?


a) Perform the appropriate test of hypothesis using = 0.01. Clearly show the eight (8) steps

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, it is found that since the p-value is less than 0.01, there is strong indication that the true proportion of mechanics who could identify this problem is less than 0.75.

What are the hypotheses tested?

At the null hypotheses, it is tested if there is not enough evidence that the proportion is less than 0.75, that is:

[tex]H_0: p \geq 0.75[/tex]

At the alternative hypotheses, it is tested if there is enough evidence that the proportion is less than 0.75, that is:

[tex]H_1: p < 0.75[/tex]

What is the test statistic?

The test statistic is given by:

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

In which:

[tex]\overline{p}[/tex] is the sample proportion.p is the proportion tested at the null hypothesis.n is the sample size.

For this problem, the parameters are given as follows:

[tex]n = 72, \overline{p} = \frac{42}{72} = 0.5833, p = 0.75[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is given by:

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

[tex]z = \frac{0.5833 - 0.75}{\sqrt{\frac{0.75(0.25)}{72}}}[/tex]

z = -3.27.

What is the p-value of the test?

Considering a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the proportion is less than a value, with z = -3.27, the p-value is < 0.01.

Since the p-value is less than 0.01, there is strong indication that the true proportion of mechanics who could identify this problem is less than 0.75.

Answers

The inequality that can be used to find the number of weeks after which it would be cheaper to buy the console than to rent it is B.78 + 8.95z, < 24.99z

How to calculate the inequality?

From the information, Nina can buy a video game console for $78, and rent a game for $8.95 per week or she can rent a console and game for $24.99 per week.

The appropriate inequality will be:

= 78 + (8.95 × z) < 24.99 × z

= 78 + 8.95z, < 24.99z

Therefore, the correct option is B.

Nancy spent 1/5 of her money on a dress and 1/4 of the remainder on a handbag, if she spent a total of $100, how much did he have at first?

Answers

Nancy had $ 250 at the start when she did not buy anything given by the equation $ 100 = 2 x / 5

Let the original amount Nancy have first be x.

Therefore, Money spent on dress =  x / 5

Remaining money = x - x / 5

= 4 x / 5

Money spent on handbag = (1 / 4) × 4 x / 5

= x / 5

Total total money spent is given by the equation:

= x / 5 + x / 5 = $ 100

$ 100 = 2 x / 5

2 x = $ 500

⇒ x = $ 500 / 2

⇒ x = $ 250

Hence, Nancy had $ 250 at the start when she did not buy anything given by the equation $ 100 = 2 x / 5

How many 3 digit passcodes are possible if the digits, chosen from the set {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}, cannot be repeated and the first digit must be an even number.

Answers

Answer:  24

==================================================

Explanation:

The first digit must be even, so we have this subset {2,4} to pick from for that first digit. There are 2 choices here.

Whatever is picked for the first digit cannot be re-selected. So we have 5-1 = 4 choices left for the second digit, and then 4-1 = 3 choices for the third digit.

Overall we have 2*4*3 = 24 different passcodes.

As the tax assessor for Indian Creek County, you have been informed that due to budgetary demands, a tax increase will be necessary next year. The total market value of the property in the county is $400,000,000. Currently, the assessment rate is 35% and the tax rate is 30 mills. The county commission increases the assessment rate to 55% and the tax rate to 35 mills.
(a)
How much property tax (in $) was collected under the old rates?
$

(b)
How much more tax (in $) revenue will be collected under the new rates?
$

Answers

The amount of property tax that was collected under old rates is $4,200,000 and new rates is $5,400,000.

(a) Take a look at the information provided.

$400,000,000 is the fair market value, and the assessment rate is 35%.

Thus, 35% = 35/100 = 0.35

Since fair market value x assessment rate equals assessment value

400,000,000 x 0.3 = 140,000,000

30-mill old property tax rate

To convert the tax rate from mills to decimal, multiply it by 0.001.

30x 0.001 = 0.03

Then, multiply the old tax rate by the previous assessment value of the property to determine the amount of property tax owed: 140,000,000 x 0.03 = 4,200,000.

Therefore, the amount of property tax that was collected at the previous rates was $4,200,000.

(b) The price at fair market is $400,000,000.

The evaluation rate is 45%.

45% = 45/100 = 0.45

As, or in other words,

assessment value = fair market value multiplied by the assessment rate.

As a result,

400000000 x 0.45 = 180000000

30 mills is the old property tax rate.

To compute the tax rate in decimal notation, multiply the millage rate by 0.001.

30 x 0.001 = 0.03

Calculate the property tax owing by multiplying the old tax rate by the previous assessment of the property: 180000000 x 0.03 = 5400000.

Therefore, the amount of property tax that was gathered at the new rates is 5,400,000.

Hence, the amount of property tax that was collected under old rates is $4,200,000 and new rates is $5,400,000.

if f is a function from R to R such that f(x)f(y)=f(x+y)+f(z-y) and f(1)=3, then what is the value of f(7)?​

Answers

I suppose you mean

[tex]f(x) f(y) = f(x + y) + f(x - y)[/tex]

Let [tex]x=1[/tex] and [tex]y=0[/tex]. Then

[tex]f(1) f(0) = f(1 + 0) + f(1 - 0) \implies f(1) f(0) = 2 f(1) \implies f(0) = 2[/tex]

Now if we fix [tex]y=1[/tex], the functional equation reduces to the recurrence relation

[tex]f(x) f(1) = f(x + 1) + f(x - 1) \implies f(x+1) - 3f(x) + f(x-1) = 0[/tex]

and we can find [tex]f(7)[/tex] with a few rounds of substitution.

[tex]x=1 \implies f(2) - 3f(1) + f(0) = 0 \implies f(2) = 3f(1) - f(0) = 7[/tex]

[tex]x=2 \implies f(3) - 3f(2) + f(1) = 0 \implies f(3) = 3f(2) - f(1) = 18[/tex]

[tex]x=3 \implies f(4) - 3f(3) + f(2) = 0 \implies f(4) = 3f(3) - f(2) = 47[/tex]

[tex]x=4 \implies f(5) - 3f(4) + f(3) = 0 \implies f(5) = 3f(4) - f(3) = 123[/tex]

[tex]x=5 \implies f(6) - 3f(5) + f(4) = 0 \implies f(6) = 3f(5) - f(4) = 322[/tex]

[tex]x=6 \implies f(7) - 3f(6) + f(5) = 0 \implies f(7) = 3f(6) - f(5) = \boxed{843}[/tex]

The value of the expression [6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] is 25

How to evaluate the expression?

The expression is given as

\frac{6\div \frac{3}{8}∙0.5}{1.44\div 4.5}

Rewrite properly as

[tex]\frac{6\div \frac{3}{8} \times 0.5}{1.44\div 4.5}[/tex]

This implies that

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5]

Express the quotient as product

So, we have

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] = [6 x 8/3 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5]

Evaluate the product

So, we have

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] = [8]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5]

Evaluate the quotient

So, we have

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] = 8/(8/25)

Express the quotient as product

So, we have

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] = 8 x 25/8

Evaluate

[6 ÷ 3/8 x 0.5]/[1.44 ÷ 4.5] = 25

Given is a relation defined by the following set of coordinates -

Tom has one hundred forty-four blue marbles. Tom has eighteen times more blue marbles than Mike. How many blue marbles does Mike have?​

Answers

Answer:

18 Blue Marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M be the number of blue marbles that Mike has.

From the information from the question, we can deduce:

18M = 144 blue marbles

Now we solve for M to find the number of blue marbles that Mark has.

M = 144 ÷ 18

= 8 Blue Marbles

Mike has 8 marbles. Given that Tom has 144 marbles and that is 18 times the amount Mike has, we can set up an equation where m represents the amount of marbles Mike has:

m = 144 / 18

An equation for how many marbles Tom has would be:

t = 18m

144 / 18 gives us 8. For that reason, we know that Mike has 8 marbles.

Mike has 8 blue marbles.
