Step-by-step explanation:

A claim is made that the proportion of 6-10 year-old children who play sports is not equal to 0.5.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the proportion is of 0.5, that is:

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the proportion is different from 0.5, that is:

The test statistic is:

In which X is the sample mean, is the value tested at the null hypothesis, is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that

A random sample of 551 children aged 6-10 showed that 48% of them play a sport.

This means that

(a) Calculate the value of the test statistic used in this test.

So the answer is -0.94.

(b) Use your calculator to find the P-value of this test.

The p-value of the test is the probability that the sample proportion differs from 0.5 by at least 0.02, which is P(|z| > 0.94), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -0.94.

Looking at the z-table, z = -0.94 has a p-value of 0.1736.

2*0.1736 = 0.3472, so 0.3472 is the answer to option b.

(c) Use your calculator to find the critical value(s) used to test this claim at the 0.02 significance level.

Two-tailed test(test if the mean differs from a value), Z with a p-value of 0.02/2 = 0.01 or 1 - 0.01 = 0.99.

Looking at the z-table, this is z = -2.327 or z = 2.327.

the correct answer is x/3+10≥32

hope this !

the answer is 1 becuz if it were 1.0 that would rip apart the entire so ya. : )
