The manager of a large company that sells pet supplies online wants to increase sales by encouraging repeat purchases. The manager believes that if past customers are offered $10 off their next purchase, more than 40 percent of them will place an order. To investigate the belief, 90 customers who placed an order in the past year are selected at random. Each of the selected customers is sent an e-mail with a coupon for $10 off the next purchase if the order is placed within 30 days. Of those who receive the coupon, 38 place an order.

Required:
a. Is there convincing statistical evidence, at the significance level of a = 0.05, that the managerâs belief is correct? Complete the appropriate inference procedure to support your answer.
b. Based on your conclusion from part (a), which of the two errors, Type I or Type II, could have been made? Interpret the consequence of the error in context.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There is not a convincing statistical evidence, at the significance level of a = 0.05, that the manager's belief is correct.

As the null hypothesis maybe false accepting it makes a type II error.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the null and alternate hypotheses be

H0: p ≤ 0.4  vs Ha : p>0.4

q= 1-p= 1-0.4= 0.6

The significance level alpha is 0.05

The critical region for one tailed test is Z> ± 1.645

The sample proportion is p^= x/n= 38/90=0.42222

Using the z statistic

z= p^- p/ √pq

z= 0.422-0.4/ √0.4*0.6

z= 0.04536

Since the calculated value of z= 0.04536 does not lie in the critical region  Z> ± 1.645 we fail to reject null hypothesis.

There is not sufficient evidence to support the manager's claim.

Type I error is when we reject the true null hypothesis .

Type II error is when we accept the false null hypothesis .

As the null hypothesis maybe false accepting it makes a type II error.

Answer 2

There is not enough statistical evidence that the managers' claim is true.

What is the z test statistic for one sample proportion?

Suppose that we have:

n = sample size[tex]\hat{p}[/tex] = sample proportionp = population proportion (hypothesised)

Then, the z test statistic for one sample proportion is:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat{p} - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

What are type I and type II errors?

The Type I error is false positive (returning the test result as positive, which means, rejecting the null hypothesis(conclusion of rejection of null hypothesis is called positive test result) when its incorrect).

The Type II error is false negative (returning the test result as negative, which means, accepting the null hypothesis(assuming negative test result, so no flaw in null hypothesis from the perspective of test) when its wrong).

For this case, we've got:

Assumption by manager = Population proportion of repurchase by customers > 0.4Sample size = n = 90Sample proportion of repurchase = 38/90 ≈ 0.422Level of significance = α = 0.05

The hypotheses for test would be:

Null hypothesis: Manager is not correct(nullifies managers' assumption): [tex]H_0: p \leq 0.4[/tex] (p is population proportion of repurchasing customers)Alternate hypothesis: Managers' assumption is true: [tex]H_1: p > 0.4[/tex]

It is single tailed.

At the level of significance 0.05, for single tail, the critical value of Z test statistic is found to be [tex]Z_{\alpha/2} = \pm1.645[/tex]

The z test statistic for one sample proportion is:

[tex]Z = \dfrac{\hat{p} - p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

We test null hypothesis, according to which p is 0.4 or less, so we get:

[tex]Z \approx \dfrac{0.422- 0.4}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.4(1-0.4)}{90}}} \approx \dfrac{0.022}{\sqrt{0.00267}} \approx 0.426 < |Z_{\alpha/2}| = 1.645[/tex]

Thus, we accept the null hypothesis (we do so when [tex]Z < |Z_{\alpha/2}|[/tex] )

Therefore, there is not enough statistical evidence that the managers' claim is true.

Thus, here, we get:

Type I error: Rejecting the fact that manager's claim is wrong(and thus accepting that manager's claim is right) when actually manager's claim is wrong.Type II error: Accepting the fact that manager's claim is wrong(and thus rejecting that manager's claim is right) when actually manager's claim is right.

PLEASE HELP ME!! Kevin earns a base salary of $350.00 every week with an additional 12%
commission on everything he sells. If Kevin sold $4950.00 worth of items
last week, what was his total pay?

Answers

Answer:  944 dollars for the week

============================================================

Explanation:

He sold $4950 worth of items. Take 12% of this amount to get

12% of 4950 = 0.12*4950 = 594

So he earns $594 in commission on top of the $350 base salary paid every week. In total, he earns 594+350 = 944 dollars for that week

This isn't the per week pay because he would need to sell exactly $4950 worth of goods each week to keep this same weekly pay.

What is a probability?

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

In this problem, of the 85 learners, 75 - 60 = 15 have an orange but not an apple, hence the probability is given by:

p = 15/85 = 0.1765.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your system by elimination.

Add these equations to eliminate y:

2x=8

Then solve 2x=8 for x:

2x=8

(Divide both sides by 2)

x=4

Now that we've found x let's plug it back in to solve for y.

Write down an original equation:

−x−2y=4

Substitute 4 for x in−x−2y=4:

−4−2y=4

−2y−4=4(Simplify both sides of the equation)

−2y−4+4=4+4(Add 4 to both sides)

−2y=8

−2y

(Divide both sides by -2)

I have a large money box, about 10 inches wide and 5 inches tall. Roughly, how many coins can I place in my empty money box?"

Answers

Answer:

Overall, it depends what type of coin you are using because each ones size is different. Or, if you are referring to the riddle it will be just one coin.

The correct answer is approximately 3,968 coins can be placed in the empty money box based on estimation. Based on these calculations, you can roughly estimate  a volume  calculation that  place around 7936 coins in your empty money box, assuming the coins are similar in size to a quarter.

To estimate the number of coins that can fit in your money box, we need to consider the volume of the box and the volume of a single coin.

Calculate the volume of the money box:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 10 inches * 10 inches * 5 inches

Volume = 500 cubic inches

Estimate the volume of a single coin. Let's assume a common coin, such as a quarter:

Diameter of a quarter ≈ 0.96 inches

Thickness of a quarter ≈ 0.07 inches

Volume of a coin ≈ π * ([tex]radius^2[/tex]) * thickness

Volume of a quarter ≈[tex]3.14 * (0.48) ^2 * 0.07[/tex]inches

Volume of a quarter ≈ 0.063 cubic inches

Calculate the number of coins that can fit in the money box:

Number of coins ≈ Volume of the money box / Volume of a coin

Number of coins ≈ 500 cubic inches / 0.063 cubic inches

Number of coins ≈ 7936 coins (approximately)

Therefore, approximately 3,968 coins can be placed in the empty money box based on estimation. Based on these calculations, you can roughly estimate  a volume  calculation that  place around 7936 coins in your empty money box, assuming the coins are similar in size to a quarter.
