In a bakery that sells cookies there are 4 oatmeal cookies for every 11 chocolate cookies.If there are 285 cookies altogether how many oatmeal cookies are there?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total number of red and blue beads

Angie has some red and blue beads. 40% of her beads were red. This means that the total number of red beads is

40/100 × x = 0.4x

The number of blue beads would be

x - 0.4x = 0.6x

When she lost 50 blue beads, the number of blue beads was reduced by 1/3 its original number of beads. This means that

0.6x - 50 = 0.6x - 0.6x/3

0.6x - 50 = 0.6x - 0.2x = 0.4x

0.6x - 0.4x = 50

0.2x = 50

x = 50/0.2 = 250

The number of blue beads that Angie had initially is

0.6 × 250 = 150

The number of blue beads that Angie has left is

150 - 50 = 100 beads

The number of beads that Angie has in the end is

250 - 50 = 200 beads

Answer:

There is no significant evidence that more than two-thirds (67%) of authors support continuing this system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let p be the proportion of authors who support continuing the system

Then hypotheses are:

: p=0.67

: p>0.67

To calculate the test statistic:

z= where

• p(s) is the sample proportion of authors who support the publishing system ( ≈0.692)

• p is the proportion assumed under null hypothesis. (0.67)

• N is the sample size (104)

Then z= ≈ 0.477

p-value of test statistic is ≈0.317

Assuming a significance level 0.05, since 0.317>0.05 we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

p-value 0.317 is the probability that the sample is drawn from the distribution assumed under null hypothesis, that is where the proportion of authors supporting the new publishing system is at most 0.67

Final answer:

A hypothesis test for a proportion is used to determine whether more than two-thirds of authors support continuing the system. The p-value associated with the test is less than 0.0001, indicating that the data provide good evidence in favor of the alternative hypothesis. Therefore, the majority of authors support continuing the system.

Explanation:

To determine whether the data provides evidence that more than two-thirds (67%) of authors support continuing the system, we can use a hypothesis test for a proportion. We will use a significance level of 0.05.

Let's set up our hypotheses:

• Null hypothesis (H0): p ≤ 0.67 (less than or equal to two-thirds support)
• Alternative hypothesis (Ha): p > 0.67 (more than two-thirds support)

Using the normal approximation to the binomial, we can calculate the test statistic and p-value. With a sample size of 104 and 72 authors in favor, the test statistic is:

z = (72 - 0.67 * 104) / sqrt(0.67 * (1 - 0.67) * 104) ≈ 3.79

The p-value associated with a z-score of 3.79 is less than 0.0001. Since this p-value is less than 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, the data provide good evidence that more than two-thirds of authors support continuing the system.
