In August 2003, 56% of employed adults in the United States reported that basic mathematical skills were critical or very important to their job. The supervisor of the job placement office at a 4-year college thinks this percentage has increased due to increased use of technology in the workplace. He takes a random sample of 30 employed adults and finds that 21 of them feel that basic mathematical skills are critical or very important to their job.
Required:
Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the percentage of employed adults who feel basic mathematical skills are critical or very important to their job has increased at the a = 0.05 level of significance?
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
First, suppose that nothing has changed, and possibility p is still 0.56. It's our null hypothesis. Now, we've got Bernoulli distribution, but 30 is big enough to consider Gaussian distribution instead.
It has mean μ= np = 30×0.56=16.8
standard deviation s = √npq
sqrt(30×0.56×(1-0.56)) = 2.71
So 21 is (21-16.8)/2.71 = 1.5494 standard deviations above the mean. So the level increased with a ˜ 0.005 level of significance, and there is sufficient evidence.

Given the following information: P(A) = 0.62 P(B) = 0.25 P(A and B) = 0.12 P(B given A) = 0.19 What is the probability of A or B? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth as needed. P(A or B) =|
Answer:
P(A or B) = 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
Venn probabilities:
Supposing that we have two events A and B, the probability P(A or B) is given by:
[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B)[/tex]
In this question, we have that:
[tex]P(A) = 0.62, P(B) = 0.25, P(A \cap B) = 0.12[/tex]
So
[tex]P(A \cup B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A \cap B) = 0.62 + 0.25 - 0.12 = 0.62 + 0.13 = 0.75[/tex]
Then
P(A or B) = 0.75
Myrna is buying a new rug for her living room. What is the area of the rug, in square feet?
8 ft
12 ft
Ο Α. 40 ft2
O
B. 48 ft?
o
C. 80 ft2
D 96 ft2
Answer:
The answer is 96 square feet because if you look at the first rectangle (the one on the top left), you should multiply 5 times 6 which equals 30.
Answer:
(D), 96 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula for area is:
Length * Width = Area
Let's plug in the values:
8 * 12 = 96 square feet
Therefore, the answer is (D), 96 square feet. Hope this helps!
A dog ran along a fence 10 times. The fence is 5 feet 3 inches long. How far did the dog travel? (12 inches = 1 foot

Omar the tent maker wishes to support a 13.4-ft tent wall by attaching 25-ft cable to the top of it, and then anchoring the cable to the ground. If the cable is pulled tight, how far from the base of the tent will it be anchored?
Answer:
21.11 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
This question would be solved using Pythagoras theorem
The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²
where a = length
b = base
c = hypotenuse
13.4² + b² = 25²
179.56 + b² = 625
b² = 625 - 179.56
b = 445.44
find the square root of 445.44
b = 21.11 ft

Answer:
(d)
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of the semicircle is ...
A = (1/2)πr²
A = (1/2)(3.14)(4 m)² = 25.12 m²
The area of the triangle is ...
A = 1/2bh
A = 1/2(12 m)(8 m) = 48 m²
Then the total area of the composite figure is ...
total area = semicircle area + triangle area
= 25.12 m² + 48 m² = 73.12 m²
_____
Additional comment
The areas of choices A-C are too small. Choice A represents the area of the full circle. Choice B represents the area of the triangle only. Choice C is completely irrelevant. Choice D is the sum of the first two choices, inappropriately using the full circle area.
You should talk to your teacher about this question. None of the offered choices is correct.

What is the measure of angle XYZ?
Answer:
63degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the theorem which states that the measure of angle at the vertex is half the angle of its intercepted arc.
Given
angle of its intercepted arc = 126 degree
Required
angle at the vertex = x =<XYZ
According to the theorem;
x = 1/2(126)
x = 126/2
x = 63
Hence the measure of <XYZ is 63degrees

Verify the following identity and show steps
(Cos2 θ)/(1+sin2 θ)= (cot θ-1)/(cot θ+1)
Answer:
Verified below
Step-by-step explanation:
We want to show that (Cos2θ)/(1 + sin2θ) = (cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1)
In trigonometric identities;
Cot θ = cos θ/sin θ
Thus;
(cot θ - 1)/(cot θ + 1) gives;
((cos θ/sin θ) - 1)/((cos θ/sin θ) + 1)
Simplifying numerator and denominator gives;
((cos θ - sin θ)/sin θ)/((cos θ + sin θ)/sin θ)
This reduces to;
>> (cos θ - sin θ)/(cos θ + sin θ)
Multiply top and bottom by ((cos θ + sin θ) to get;
>> (cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ)
In trigonometric identities, we know that;
cos 2θ = (cos² θ - sin²θ)
cos²θ + sin²θ = 1
sin 2θ = 2sinθcosθ
Thus;
(cos² θ - sin²θ)/(cos²θ + sin²θ + 2sinθcosθ) gives us:
>> cos 2θ/(1 + sin 2θ)
This is equal to the left hand side.
Thus, it is verified.

Country A has an exponential growth rate of 4.6% per year. The population is currently 5,849,000, and the land area of Country A is 38,000,000,000 square yards. Assuming this growth rate continues and is exponential, after how long will there be one person for every square yard of land?
Answer:
195.205998 years
Step-by-step explanation:
P=P0(1.046)^t P=future population P0=initial population t=years passed
38,000,000,000 = 5,849,000(1.046)^t
1.046^t = 38,000,000,000/5,849,000
1.046^t = 38,000,000/5,849
plug in log on both sides
log 1.046^t = log (38,000,000/5,849)
t[log 1.046] = log (38,000,000/5,849)
t = In (38,000,000/5,849)/ In 1.046
t ≈ 195.205998 (hope this helps)
