Prospective drivers who enrol in Smart Driver Driving School have always been taught by a conventional teaching method. The driving school has many branches across provinces. Last year, among all students that took driving lessons from the school in a certain province, 80% passed the provincial road test. This year, the teaching committee came up with a new teaching method. The committee randomly assigned half of its 2400 students enrolled this year to receive the conventional teaching method and the remaining half to receive the new teaching method. In a random sample of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method, 78% passed the road test. Part i) To test if the passing rate has decreased from last year for students who received the conventional teaching method, what will be the null hypothesis? A. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.78.B. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.78.C. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.80.D. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.80.E. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year is lower than 0.80.F. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year is lower than 0.80. Part ii) For the test mentioned in the previous part, what will be the alternative hypothesis?A. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.80.B. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.78.C. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year is lower than 0.80.D. The proportion of 1200 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.78.E. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year equals 0.80.F. The proportion of 100 students who received the conventional teaching method and subsequently passed the road test this year is lower than 0.80. Part iii) What is the approximate null model for the sample proportion of the conventional teaching group who passed the road test?A. N(0.80,0.8⋅0.2100−−−−−√)N(0.80,0.8⋅0.2100).B. N(0.80,0.8⋅0.21200−−−−−√)N(0.80,0.8⋅0.21200).C. N(0.78,0.78⋅0.22100−−−−−−√)N(0.78,0.78⋅0.22100).D. N(0.78,0.78⋅0.221200−−−−−−√)N(0.78,0.78⋅0.221200).E. N(0.78,0.8⋅0.2100−−−−−√)N(0.78,0.8⋅0.2100).F. N(0.80,0.78⋅0.22100−−−−−−√)N(0.80,0.78⋅0.22100). Part iv) Compute the PP-value: (your answer must be expressed as a proportion and rounded to 4 decimal places.) Part v) What is an appropriate conclusion for the hypothesis test at the 2% significance level?A. The passing rate for students taught using the conventional method this year is significantly lower than last years.B. The passing rate for students taught using the conventional method this year is not significantly lower than last years.C. The passing rate for students taught using the conventional method this year is the same as last years.D. Both (b) and (c).
Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
