An orange juice manufacturer advertises a new orange juice product that contains 50% less sugar. This new product is expected to increase profits substantially because they create the 50% less sugar product by replacing 50% of the juice with water while selling it for the same price. An inspector wants to investigate whether the actual percentage of water in the product is within 5% of the intended 50%. He selects a random sample of 500 containers of orange juice and determined the percentage of each that is water. He plans to conduct a significance test at the a = 0.01 level to see if there is convincing evidence that the proportion of water added is different from 0.50. What is the probability that the inspector makes a Type I error?
(A) 0.01
(B) 0.05
(C) 0.10
(D) 0.45
(E) 0.50

A. 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Type I error are refered to as false positives and it means that when a statistically significant difference is validated by the researcher even though the results aren't statistically significant.

Type I error is when one rejects the null hypothesis even though it's actually true. In this case, the inspector rejects the hypothesis which was that the proportion of water that is contained the product is 0.5.

The probability of type 1 error will then be equal to the hypothesis level of significance and this will be 0.01.

1/3

step-by-step explanation:

to find this, you can divide 12 by 4 which is 3 or you can multiply 4 until you reach 12 (4x3=12). both should give you 3, meaning theres three times less bananas than there are oranges.

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2
