A newsletter publisher believes that less than 61% of their readers own a laptop. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.02 level to substantiate the publisher's claim? State the null and alternative hypotheses for the above scenario.
Answer: See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
From the information given in the question, we are informed that a newsletter publisher believes that less than 61% of their readers own a laptop.
The null hypothesis will be: H0: p ≥ 0.61
The alternative hypothesis will be: Ha: p < 0.61.
Derive the explicit rule for the pattern: 3, 0, - 3, - 6, - 9, ...
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 3
d = -3
an = a1 + (n - 1)*d
an = a1 + (n - 1)*-3
Try it
Let n = 5
a5 = 3 + (5 - 1)*-3
a5 = 3 + 4*-3
a5 = 3 - 12
a5 = - 9 which is exactly what it should be.
The interesting one to try is n = 2
a2 = a1 + (2 - 1)*-3
a3 = 3 + 1(-3)
a3 = 3 - 3
a3 =0
Which is exactly what the second term is. It's interesting because you would never guess that 0 is what you get.
Max needs to paint a wall that is shaped like a square. He knows that the area of the wall is 75 ft2 . He needs to find the height of the wall. Find the height of the wall to the nearest tenth of a foot.
Answer:
8.7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Use the square area formula, a = s², where s is the side length of the square.
Plug in the area and solve for s:
a = s²
75 = s²
√75 = s
8.7 = s
So, to the nearest tenth of a foot, the height is 8.7 feet
You are dealt two cards successively without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards. Find the probability that the first card is a two and the second card is a ten.
Answer:
[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 52 cards in a standard deck, and there are 4 suits for each card. Therefore there are 4 twos and 4 tens.
At first we have 52 cards to choose from, and we need to get 1 of the 4 twos, therefore the probability is just
[tex]\frac{4}{52}[/tex]
After we've chosen a two, we need to choose one of the 4 tens. But remember that we're now choosing out of a deck of just 51 cards, since one card was removed. Therefore the probability is
[tex]\frac{4}{51}[/tex]
Now to get the total probability we need to multiply the two probabilities together
[tex]\frac{4}{52} \times \frac{4}{51} = \frac{16}{2652} = 0.00603 = 0.603\%[/tex]

The mean absolute deviation is Hence,
(5 + 4 + 0 + 1 + 2 + 6) / 6
Mean absolute deviation = 18 / 6
Mean absolute deviation = 3
You are offered two stocks. The beta of A is 1.4 while the beta of B is 0.8. The growth rates of earnings and dividends are 10% and 5%, respectively. The dividend yields are 5% and 7%, respectively.
Since A offers higher potential growth, should it be purchased?
Investments- Individual Work 2 Page 3
Since B offers a higher dividend yield, should it be purchased?
If the risk-free rate of return were 7% and the return on the market is expected to be 14%, which of these stocks should be bought?
Answer:
a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B
b) No, Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that:
Beta A \beta A=1.4
Beta B \beta B=0.8
Stock 1 Growth rates of earnings and dividends G_1=10\%
Stock 2 Growth rates of earnings and dividends G_2=5\%
Stock 1 Dividend yields D_1=5\%
Stock 2 Dividend yields D_2=7\%
Generally the equation for Expected Returns is mathematically given by
Expected Returns =Growth rates+Dividend yields
For Stock 1
Expected\ Returns =G_1+D_1
Expected\ Returns =5%+10%
Expected\ Returns =15%
For Stock 2
Expected\ Returns =G_2+D_2
Expected\ Returns =7%+5%
Expected\ Returns =12%
Therefore
a) Yes , Cause The Expected Returns of stock A is Higher than that of B
b) No, Cause The Expected Returns of stock B is Lower than that of A

A capark has 34 rows and each row can acommodate 40 cars. If there are 976 cars parked, how many cars can still be parked?
Answer:
384 cars
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the total number of spaces in the carpark, we must multiply the number of rows by how many cars they can accommodate:
34 ⋅ 40 = 1360
As you can see, we have 1360 total spaces. Since there are 976 cars parked, and we want to find out how many spaces are left, we have to subtract the amount of cars parked from the total spaces.
1360 - 976 = 384
Therefore, our answer is 384, specifically, 384 cars.
Answer:
384 cars.
Step-by-step explanation:
40 * 34 - 976
= 1360 - 976
= 384.

How does the area below the mean compare to the area above the mean in a normal distribution?
A. the areas are always equal regardless of the mean
B. the areas are sometimes equal depending upon the standard deviation of the distribution
C. the area above the mean is larger since the values are larger as you move above the mean
D. the areas are sometimes equal depending upon the value of the mean
Answer:
A.
Step-by-step explanation:
that is the definition of "mean". it cuts the possible outcomes weighed with their probabilities (actual occurrences vs. possible occurrences) in 2 halves.
The areas are always equal regardless of the mean.
option (a) is correct.
What is normal distribution?A probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean.
The standard normal distribution is a probability distribution, so the area under the curve between two points tells you the probability of variables taking on a range of values. The total area under the curve is 1 or 100%.
Therefore ,the areas are always equal regardless of the mean.

A poll of 400 people from Dobbs Ferry showed 250 preferred chocolate raspberry coffee while 170 out of 350 in Irvington preferred the same flavor. To test the hypothesis that there is no difference in preferences in the two villages, what is the alternate hypothesis
Answer: The alternate hypothesis would disprove the null hypothesis and state that there are a significant difference in preferences/proportions between the two villages.
For instance, let's say:
p₁ = proportion of preference from Dobbs Ferryp₂ = proportion of preference from IrvingtonThe null hypothesis would be that p₁ = p₂, while the alternative hypothesis would be that p₁ ≠ p₂.

Answer: [tex]9\sqrt{3}[/tex]
==========================================================
Explanation:
For any 30-60-90 triangle, the short leg is always half the hypotenuse.
This makes the short leg to be 18/2 = 9 units long.
We then multiply this by [tex]\sqrt{3}[/tex] to get the length of the long leg.
[tex]\text{long leg} = (\text{short leg})*\sqrt{3}\\\text{long leg} =9\sqrt{3}[/tex]
Or you could use the pythagorean theorem to solve [tex]x^2+9^2 = 18^2[/tex] and you should get [tex]x = \sqrt{243} = 9\sqrt{3}[/tex]

An Arabian camel can travel 20 miles in 8 hours, carrying a 300-pound load on its back. At this rate, how far can the camel travel in 10 hours?
Answer:
25 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Cammel can travel 20 miles in 8 hours;
The traveling rate or speed = distance / time
Rate = 20 miles / 8 hours = 2.5 miles per hour
The distance traveled in 10 hours at this rate will be :
Distance = speed or rate * time
Distance = 2.5 mph * 10 hours
Distance traveled = 25 miles

Answer:
To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.
The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.
Step-by-step explanation:
Vertex of a quadratic function:
Suppose we have a quadratic function in the following format:
[tex]f(x) = ax^{2} + bx + c[/tex]
It's vertex is the point [tex](x_{v}, y_{v})[/tex]
In which
[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a}[/tex]
[tex]y_{v} = -\frac{\Delta}{4a}[/tex]
Where
[tex]\Delta = b^2-4ac[/tex]
If a<0, the vertex is a maximum point, that is, the maximum value happens at [tex]x_{v}[/tex], and it's value is [tex]y_{v}[/tex].
In this question:
Quadratic equation with [tex]a = -12, b = 2160, c = -59000[/tex]
To maximize the monthly rental profit, how many units should be rented out?
This is the x-value of the vertex, so:
[tex]x_{v} = -\frac{b}{2a} = -\frac{2160}{2(-12)} = \frac{2160}{24} = 90[/tex]
To maximize the monthly rental profit, 90 units should be rented out.
What is the maximum monthly profit realizable?
This is p(90). So
[tex]p(90) = -12(90)^2 + 2160(90) - 59000 = 38200[/tex]
The maximum monthly profit realizable is $38,200.

Which number line shows the solution for n + 3 < 12?
Answer:
None of them
Step-by-step explanation:
n+3<12
(Subtract 3 from both sides)
n<9
(n is less than 9, so n is everything left of 9)
(the inequality symbols: > and < are an open dot)
(none of the choices display n<9 with an open dot, so none of the options are correct)
(if you meant < with a line underneath it, then the dot would be filled, and the answer would be D)

Find BD
Answer: [tex]8\sqrt{2}[/tex]
==========================================================
Work Shown:
Focus entirely on triangle ABD (or on triangle BCD; both are identical)
The two legs of this triangle are AB = 8 and AD = 8. The hypotenuse is unknown, so we'll say BD = x.
Apply the pythagorean theorem.
[tex]a^2 + b^2 = c^2\\\\c = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2 + 8^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{2*8^2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2*2}\\\\x = \sqrt{8^2}*\sqrt{2}\\\\x = 8\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex]
So that's why the diagonal BD is exactly [tex]8\sqrt{2}\\\\[/tex] units long
