A gas company president for a particular city is interested in the proportion of homes heated by gas. Historically, the proportion of homes heated by gas has been 0.72. A sample of 75 homes was selected and it was found that 45 of them heat with gas. Perform the appropriate test of hypothesis, at level .05, to determine whether the proportion of home heated by gas has changed. Group of answer choices

p-value (0.0208) is less than alpha = 0.05 reject H0.

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the following data:

sample size = n = 75

x, the number to evaluate is 45

the sample proportion would be: x / n = 45/75

p * = 0.6

Now, the null and alternative hypotheses are:

H0: P = 0.72

Ha: P no 72

two tailed test

statistic tes = z = (p * - p) / [(p * (1-p) / n)] ^ (1/2)

replacing we have:

z = (0.6 - 0.72) / [(0.72 * (1-0.72) / 75)] ^ (1/2)

z = -2.31

p-vaule = 2 * p (z <-2.31)

using z table, we get:

p-vaule = 2 * (0.0104)

p-vaule = 0.0208

Therefore, p-value (0.0208) is less than alpha = 0.05 reject H0.

the system of inequalities is

step-by-step explanation:

step 1

find the equation of the dashed line

we have the points

(0,0) and (3,1)

the line passes through the origin, so, is a direct variation

find the slope

the equation of the dashed line is

the solution of the inequality a s the shaded area above the dashed line

therefore

the equation of the inequality a is

step 2

find the equation of the solid line

we have the points

(4,0) and (0,4)

find the slope

the equation of the solid line is

the solution of the inequality b s the shaded area below the solid line

therefore

the equation of the inequality b is

step 3

the system of inequalities is

look at the picture.

y-intercept for the function on a picture is 4 → point (0, 4).

y-intercept for the function

is for x = 0. substitute:

y-intercept is 8 → point (0, 8).
