Suppose Harvey owns a small business that produces computer motherboards. He previously owned one machine, machine A, that produced these motherboards. In an effort to increase production, he recently purchased a new machine, machine B, that also produces motherboards. Although both machines produce motherboards at the same rate, Harvey suspects that machine A produces fewer defective motherboards than machine B. In order to test this hypothesis, he randomly selects 260 motherboards produced by machine A and 200 motherboards produced by machine B. He observes that 13 of the sampled items from machine A are defective and 14 sampled items from machine B are defective. Harvey plans to use the sample data he collected to test if the frequency of defective items produced by machine A is less than the frequency of defective items produced by machine B. Select the appropriate test that Harvey should perform to test his hypothesis.
a. two-sample t-test for two means
b. one-sample z-test for a mean
c. one-sample z-test for a proportion
d. matched-pairs t-test
e. two-sample z-test for two proportions

e. two-sample z-test for two proportions

Step-by-step explanation:

He has two machines, which have a proportion of defective motherboards. He want to compare this two proportions.

He takes two samples, one for each machine, and calculate the proportion in order to statistically test if there are significant difference between the proportions.

Then, this is a two-sample z-test for two proportions

step-by-step explanation:

i think something is missing in your question because y-1=(x-12) would not pass through the point (-4,-3). because if you replace x by -4 your are supposed to find y=-3 which is not the case her. if you replace x by -4 you find =-15.

i assume the right equation is y-1=1/4*(x-12) because this one is passing through both your points (if you are interested to know how i found that out i can tell you).

in this equation if i replace x by -4 i find y=-3 and if i replace x by 12, i find y=1 so the line representing this equation is passing through those 2 points.

then the standard form of the equation is finding an expression of y in function of x

y-1=1/4*(x-12)

y=x/4-3+1

y=x/4-2

do you confirm there was a mistake in the question?

from this example, we can see that subtracting with integers is the same as adding the opposite. we can solve using a number line or by using the saying "keep, change, change" to us solve. it is important to remember that we can subtract a negative and end up with a larger number than we started with.
