Suppose in order for a bill to pass in Congress, 50% of voters must be in favor of it. In a random sample of 150 voters, 62 said that they were in favor of a new bill. State the p-value assuming the alternative hypothesis is Ha ≠.50 (Round to the nearest hundredth.)

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the p-value is of 0.03.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is of 0.5, that is:

[tex]H_0: p = 0.5[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the proportion is different of 0.5, that is:

[tex]H_a: p \neq 0.5[/tex]

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: [tex]p = 0.5, n = 150, \overline{p} = \frac{62}{150} = 0.4133[/tex]

Hence, the value of the test statistic is:

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

[tex]z = \frac{0.4133 - 0.5}{\sqrt{\frac{0.5(0.5)}{150}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -2.12[/tex]

The p-value is found using a z-distribution calculator, with z = -2.12 and a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, hence it is of 0.03.

8-kg lead brick falls from a height of 1.6 m.
(a) Find its momentum as it reaches the ground.
Ikg-m/s
(b) What Impulse is needed to bring the brick to rest?
N-s
(c) The brick falls onto a carpet, 2.0 cm thick. Assuming the force stopping it is constant, find the average force the carpet exerts on the brick
N
(d) If the brick falls onto a 6,0 cm foam rubber pad, what constant force is needed to bring it to rest?

Answers

The magnitude of the impulse needed to bring the brick to rest is given by the initial momentum of the brick.

The correct responses are;

(a) 44.8 kg·m/s(b) 44.8 N·s(c) 6,278.4 N(d) 2,092.8 N

Reasons:

The velocity of the brick as it reaches the ground is given by the formula;

v² = 2·g·h

v = √(2·g·h)

Where;

h = The height of the brick, h = 1.6 m

g = The acceleration due to gravity ≈ 9.81 m/s²

Therefore;

v ≈ √(2 × 9.81 m/s² × 1.6 m) ≈ 5.6 m/s

(a) Momentum = Mass × Velocity

The momentum of the brick = 5.6 m/s × 8 kg = 44.8 kg·m/s

(b) Impulse = Force × Δt = Mass × Δv

Mass × Δv = 8 kg × (5.6 m/s - 0) = 44.8 kg·m/s = 44.8 N·s

Therefore, the impulse = 44.8 N·s

(c) The distance over which the carpet stops the brick = 2.0 cm = 0.02 m

Initial energy in the brick, E = m·g·h

Which gives;

E = 8 kg × 9.81 m/s² × 1.6 m = 125.568 J

Energy = Force × Distance

[tex]\displaystyle Force \ carpet \ exerts \ on \ brick, \ F = \frac{125.568 \, J}{0.02 \, m} = \mathbf{ 6,278.4 \, N}[/tex]

The average force the carpet exerts, F = 6,278.4 N

(d) If the brick falls on a foam which is 6.0 cm (thickness), we have;

Distance = 6.0 cm = 0.06 m

Therefore;

[tex]\displaystyle Force, \, F = \frac{125.568 \, J}{0.06 \, m} = \mathbf{2,092.8 \, N}[/tex]

The constant force needed to bring the brick to rest is, F ≈ 2,092.8 N

Can someone please help me with this

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

when 2 lines cross, the angles on one side of one of these lines are mirrored to the other side.

and crossing a second, parallel line creates exactly the same angles there too, because crossing the second line is like crossing the first line. otherwise the 2 lines are not parallel. the second line is just a shifted version of the first line (and vice versa). all the other attributes are the same.

and all angles around a single point on one side of a line are together 180°.

because of all that,

angle 2 = angle 3 = angle 6 = angle 7 = 76°

angle 1 = angle 4 = angle 5 = angle 8 = 180-76 = 104°

31. One serving of party drink is comprised of 3oz of syrup, 4oz of water, and 3oz of apple juice. If a large bowl of the drink contains 237oz of apple juice, how much of the total drink is in the bowl

Answers

Answer:

790 oz

Step-by-step explanation:

Ratio:

3oz syrup : 4oz water : 3oz apple juice: 1 serving: 10oz total mixture

We know there is 10oz total mixture because 3oz of syrup + 4oz of water + 3oz of apple juice = 10oz total mixture

We want to find

237oz apple juice: ?oz total mixture

To do this, we can multiply the ratio

3oz apple juice: 10oz total mixture by 237/3, because 237/3 * 3 = 237, getting us to 237oz apple juice on one side and maintaining the ratio so that we can find the total mixture amount, so we have

237oz apple juice: 10*237/3 oz total mixture = 10*79 = 790 oz
