In a random sample of A women, 65% favored stricter gun control laws. In a random sample of B men, 60% favored stricter gun control laws. Test the claim that the proportion of women favoring stricter gun control is higher than the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control. Use a significance level of C

We conclude that the proportion of women favoring stricter gun control is smaller than or equal to the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is : In a random sample of 360 women, 65% favored stricter gun control laws. In a random  sample of 220 men, 60% favored stricter gun control laws. Test the claim that the proportion of women  favoring stricter gun control is higher than the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control. Use a  significance level of 0.05.

Now, we are given that in a random sample of 360 women, 65% favored stricter gun control laws.

And in a random  sample of 220 men, 60% favored stricter gun control laws.

Let = proportion of women favoring stricter gun control laws.

= proportion of men favoring stricter gun control laws.

SO, Null Hypothesis, :     {means that the proportion of women favoring stricter gun control is smaller than or equal to the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control}

Alternate Hypothesis, :     {means that the proportion of women favoring stricter gun control is higher than the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control}

The test statistics that would be used here Two-sample z-test for proportions;

                          T.S. =    ~ N(0,1)

where, = sample proportion of women favoring stricter gun control laws = 65%

= sample proportion of men favoring stricter gun control laws = 60%

= sample of women = 360

= sample of men = 220

So, the test statistics  =  

                                     =  1.205

The value of z test statistics is 1.205.

Now, at 5% significance level, the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.

Since, our test statistics is less than the critical value of z as 1.205 < 1.645, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the proportion of women favoring stricter gun control is smaller than or equal to the proportion of men favoring stricter gun control.

complete the steps to find the area of the trapezoid.

area of rectangle = 256   square units

area of triangle 1 = 24  square units

area of triangle 2 = 16  square units

area of triangle 3 =   96 square units

area of trapezoid = 120  square units

step-by-step explanation:

the solution is x=1

step-by-step explanation:

we are given our   equation as

let's assume

left side function is

right side function is

now, we can draw graph

and then we can get intersection point

the intersection point will be solution

so, the solution is

x=1
