Based on sales over a six-month period, the five top-selling compact cars are Chevy Cruze, Ford Focus, Hyundai Elantra, Honda Ci

vic, and Toyota Corolla.† Based on total sales, the market shares for these five compact cars were Chevy Cruze 24%, Ford Focus 21%, Hyundai Elantra 20%, Honda Civic 18%, and Toyota Corolla 17%. Suppose a sample of 400 compact car sales in one city showed the following number of vehicles sold.
Chevy Cruze 108
Ford Focus 92
Hyundai Elantra 64
Honda Civic 84
Toyota Corolla 52
Use a goodness of fit test to determine if the sample data indicate that the market shares for the five compact cars in Chicago are different than the market shares reported by Motor Trend. Using a .05 level of significance

The p-value is

What is your conclusion?

What market share differences, if any, exist in Chicago?

Hi! The goal of the Chi-Square Goodness of Fit test is to determine if observed frequencies of a categorical variable align with the expected historical or theoretical values in the population. Having the sales proportions of the top-five compact cars, we compare them against 400 compact car sales data from Chicago to see if there are discrepancies. Specifically, we have: - Chevy Cruze 24% ⟹ P(CC) = 0.24 - Ford Focus 21% ⟹ P(FF) = 0.21 - Hyundai Elantra 20% ⟹ P(HE) = 0.20 - Honda Civic 18% ⟹ P(HC) = 0.18 - Toyota Corolla 17% ⟹ P(TC) = 0.17 The hypotheses established are: H₀: P(CC) = 0.24; P(FF) = 0.21; P(HE) = 0.20; P(HC) = 0.18; P(TC) = 0.17 H₁: There is a discrepancy between expected and observed outcomes. With α set at 0.05, the statistic calculated is based on Oi (observed frequency) and Ei (expected frequency). The initial step involves calculating expected frequencies using: Ei = n * Pi, where Pi is the theoretical proportion for each category stated in the null hypothesis. The test conducted is right-tailed, and so is the p-value, calculated as: P(X²₄ ≥ 11.23) = 1 - P(X²₄ < 11.23) = 1 - 0.98 = 0.02. Since the p-value is lower than α, we reject the null hypothesis, indicating that Chicago's market shares for the five compact cars differ from those reported by Motor Trend.

tester [12383]
From another answer, "There are various methods to calculate this. One approach is:

With a range of 400 miles on a 15-gallon fuel tank,
400 / 15 results in 26.66666666666667 miles for every gallon (it seems odd, but we'll reach a concise outcome shortly)
Thus, 26.66666666666667 multiplied by 6 gallons equals 160 miles.

<span>Final result: Landon's SUV can go </span>160 miles<span> using 6 gallons."</span><span />

Alejandro made an error in the steps below when determining the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line 4x – 3y =
Svet_ta [12734]
The equation of the perpendicular line can be identified by determining its slope and applying the given point within the standard formula.

Standard equation: y-y1 = m(x-x1)

m*m'=-1
where m' indicates the slope of the perpendicular line
m denotes the slope of the original line

m = -coefficient of x/coefficient of y = -4/-3 = 4/3
m' = -3/4

Substituting the point (3, -2):
y+2 = -3/4*(x-3)
4y+8 = -3x+9

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is: 3x+4y-1=0

Two positive, consecutive, odd integers have a product of 143. Complete the equation to represent finding x, the greater integer
zzz [12365]

Answer: 11, 13

Explanation:

We need to identify two consecutive integers whose product is 143. If we let x represent the larger of the two integers, the smaller integer can be expressed as (x-2). Their product equals 143, which gives us

x(x-2)=143

By solving the equation:

x^2 -2x -143 =0

this results in a second-order equation with two real roots: x=13 and x=-11. We disregard the negative outcome, leaving us with x=13. Hence, the two numbers are

x=13

x=13-2=11

Consider a circle whose equation is x2 + y2 – 2x – 8 = 0. Which statements are true? Select three options. The radius of the cir
PIT_PIT [12445]
The statements labeled 1 and 4 are accurate. To easily see the center and radius of the circle, we can modify the given equation to fit its standard format. Once in standard form, we can contrast it with the standard equation to find the circle's center and radius. The coordinates for the center are determined to be (1,0) and the radius is represented by r = \sqrt{9} = 3. With this understanding, we can evaluate each statement. 1. The circle's radius is 3 units—this is true. 2. The circle's center is located on the y-axis—this is incorrect, as the center at (1,0) indicates it is on the x-axis. 3. The standard equation is (x - 1)² + y² = 3—this is false; the correct equation is (x - 1)² + y² = 9. 4. The circle's radius matches that of the circle with the equation x² + y² = 9—this statement is correct, as both radii equal 3.
