The USDA conducted tests for salmonella in produce grown in California. In an independent sample of 252 cultures obtained from water used to irrigate the region, 18 tested positive for salmonella. In an independent sample of 476 cultures obtained from the region’s wildlife (e.g., birds), 20 tested positive for salmonella. Is this sufficient evidence for the USDA to conclude that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife? Assume the significance level of 0.01.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

 The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

  The conclusion is  

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The first  sample size is [tex]n_1 = 252[/tex]

    The number that tested positive is  [tex]k_1 = 18[/tex]

     The second sample size is  [tex]n_2 = 476[/tex]

     The number that  tested positive is  [tex]k_2 = 20[/tex]

     The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

Generally the first sample proportion is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\^ p _1 = \frac{k_1 }{ n_1 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\^ p _1 = \frac{18 }{ 252 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\^ p _1 = 0.071[/tex]

Generally the second sample proportion is mathematically represented as

      [tex]\^ p _2 = \frac{k_2 }{ n_2 }[/tex]

=>    [tex]\^ p _2 = \frac{20 }{ 476}[/tex]

=>    [tex]\^ p _2 = 0.042[/tex]

The  null hypothesis is            [tex]H_o : p_1 - p_2 = 0[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : p_1 - p_2 \ne 0[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented

       [tex]z = \frac{ \^ p_1 - \^ p_2 - ( p_ 1 - p_2 )}{ \sqrt{\frac{\^ p_1 (1-\^ p_1)}{ n_1 } + \frac{\^ p_2 (1-\^ p_2)}{ n_2 } } }[/tex]

=>    [tex]z = \frac{ 0.071 - 0.042 - 0 }{ \sqrt{\frac{0.071 (1-0.071)}{ 252 } + \frac{0.042 (1-\^ 0.042)}{ 476 } } }[/tex]

=>    [tex]z = 1.56[/tex]

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to  1.56   is  

        [tex]P(Z > 1.56 ) =0.05938[/tex]

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

         [tex]p-value = 2 * P(Z > 1.56 )[/tex]

=>      [tex]p-value = 2 * 0.05938[/tex]

=>      [tex]p-value = 0.1188[/tex]

From the value obtained we see that   [tex]p-value > \alpha[/tex] hence

  The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

  The conclusion is  

There no sufficient evidence to show that the proportion of salmonella in the region’s water differs from the proportion of salmonella in the region’s wildlife

Express in standard form

A number in standard form can be expressed as:

Where

[tex]1 \leq a \leq 10[/tex]

i.e.

a is between 1 and 10 (inclusive) and preferable, a should be in 2 decimal places

We have that:

[tex]3.091403[/tex] is between 1 and 10.

So, in standard form it is:

Hence, the standard form of [tex]3.091403[/tex] is [tex]3.10* 10^0[/tex]

Calculate had a net income of 5 million dollars in 2010, while a small competing company, Computate, had a
net income of 2 millions dollars. The management of Calculate develops a business plan for future growth
that projects an increase in net income of 0.5 million per year, while the management of Computate
develops a plan aimed at increasing its net income kshy15% each year.
a. Create standard mathematical model (table, graph, or equations) for the projected net income for the
next 10 years for both companies. Make sure that each model is accurate and labeled properly so that it
represents the situation
b. If both companies were able to meet their net income growth goals, which company would you choose
to invest in? Why?
c. When, if ever, would your projections suggest that the two companies have the same net income? How
did you find this? Will they ever have the same net income again?

Answer:

  a) see the attached spreadsheet (table)

  b) Calculate, for a 10-year horizon; Computate for a longer horizon.

  c) Year 13; no

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The attached table shows net income projections for the two companies. Calculate's increases by 0.5 million each year; Computate's increases by 15% each year. The result is rounded to the nearest dollar.

__

b) After year 4, Computate's net income is increasing by more than 0.5 million per year, so its growth is faster and getting faster yet. However, in the first 10 years, Calculate's net income remains higher than that of Computate. If we presume that some percentage of net income is returned to investors, then Calculate may provide a better return on investment.

The scenario given here is only interested in the first 10 years. However, beyond that time frame (see part C), we find that Computate's income growth far exceeds that of Calculate.

__

c) Extending the table through year 13, we see that Computate's net income exceeds Calculate's in that year. It continues to remain higher as long as the model remains valid.
