A biologist was interested in determining whether sunflower seedlings treated with and an extract from Vinca minor roots resulted in a lower average height of sunflower seedlings that the standard height of 15.7 cm. The biologist treated a random sample of 33 seedlings with the extract and subsequently measured the height of those seedlings. At the 0.01 significance level, is there evidence that the true average height of the seedlings treated with an extract from Vinca minor roots is less than 15.7 cm?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 15.7

H1 : μ < 15.7

This is a one sample t test :

Test statistic = (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

n = sample size = 33

Using calculator :

The sample mean, xbar = 15.41

The sample standard deviation, s = 0.419

Test statistic = (15.41 - 15.70) ÷ (0.419/√(33))

Test statistic = - 3.976

Using the Pvalue calculator :

Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 33 - 1 = 32

Pvalue(-3.976, 32) = 0.000187

Decison region :

Reject H0 if Pvalue < α

Since Pvalue < α ; we reject H0

There is significant evidence to conclude that the true average height of the seedlings treated with an extract from Vinca minor roots is less than 15.7 cm.

Required:
What is the alternate hypothesis?

Answers

Answer:

H1 : μ ≠ 20000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Population mean salary, μ = 20,000

To test if mean salary is more or less Than population mean salary, μ, this means we are testing if the mean salary is different from 20,000

Hence, the hypothesis :

Null, H0 : The mean salary is 20000

Alternative, H1 : The mean salary is not 20000

Using notation :

H0 : μ = 20000

H1 : μ ≠ 20000

Hence, alternative hypothesis is : H1 : μ ≠ 20000

We are given a weighted coin (with one side heads, one side tails), and we want to estimate the unknown probability pp that it will land heads. We flip the coin 1000 times and it happens to land heads 406 times. Give answers in decimal form, rounded to four decimal places (or more). We estimate the chance this coin will land on heads to

Answers

Answer:

0.4060

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the sample proportion, phat, we take the ratio of the number of preferred outcome to the total number of trials ;

Phat = number of times coin lands on head (preferred outcome), x / total number of trials (total coin flips), n

x = 406

n = 1000

Phat = x / n = 406/ 1000 = 0.4060

The estimate of the chance that this coin will land on heads is 0.406

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event will occur.

Probability = Expected outcome/Total outcome

If a coin is flipped 1000 times, the total outcomes will 1000

If it landed on the head 406 times, the expected outcome will be 406.

Pr(the coin lands on the head) = 406/1000

Pr(the coin lands on the head) = 0.406

Hence the estimate of the chance that this coin will land on heads is 0.406

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount invested at 13%. Then (3x+199) is the amount invested at 12%. The total interest earned in 1 year is ...

  (13%)(x) +(12%)(3x+199) = 1561.50

  0.49x +23.88 = 1561.50 . . . . simplify

  0.49x = 1537.62 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 23.88

  x = 3138 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.49

  3x+199 = 9613

$3138 was invested at 13%; $9613 was invested at 12%.

A data set includes data from student evaluations of courses. The summary statistics are n=89​, x=3.44​, s=0.67.

Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

(I also need the test statistic and p-value) thank you so much in advance :)

Answers

We're told that "the claim that the population of student course evaluations has a mean equal to 3.50". So this means μ=3.50 makes up the null H0

The alternative would be H1: μ ≠ 3.50 since it's the opposite of the claim made in the null.

We go with answer choice D to form the null and alternative hypotheses.

The sign ≠ in the alternative hypothesis tell us that we have a two tail test.

---------------------------------------

Let's compute the test statistic

z = (xbar - mu)/(s/sqrt(n))

z = (3.44 - 3.50)/(0.67/sqrt(89))

z = -0.84483413122896

z = -0.84

The test statistic is roughly -0.84

---------------------------------------

Despite not knowing what sigma is (aka the population standard deviation), we can see that n > 30 is the case. So we can use the Z distribution. This is the standard normal distribution. When n > 30, the T distribution is fairly approximately the same as the Z distribution.

Use a calculator or a Z table to determine that

P(Z < -0.84) = 0.2005

which is approximate

Because we're doing a two-tail test, this means we double that result to get 2*0.2005 = 0.401

The p-value is roughly 0.401

-----------------------------------------

Since the p-value is larger than alpha = 0.05, we don't have enough evidence to reject the null. So you can say that we fail to reject the null, or we accept the null.

The conclusion based on that means that μ=3.50  must be true (unless other evidence comes along to disprove this). In other words, the mean evaluation score from students appears to be 3.50

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(3x+1)/x² - 5x

we can only simplify this by bringing both terms to the same denominator : x²

to achieve this we need to multiply 5/x by x/x (remember, to keep the value of a term unchanged, we need to multiply numerator and denominator with the same values).

so, we get

(3x+1)/x² - 5x/x² = (3x+1-5x)/x² = (-2x+1)/x²

therefore, B is correct

Answers

Answer:

92.12 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the poisson probability relation :

P(X =x) = (e^-λ * λ^x) / x!

For no calls to be reveived during the period, x = 0

P(X = 0) = (e^-λ * λ^0) / 0!

P(X = 0) = 0.1

0.1 = (e^-λ * λ^0) / 0!

0.1 = e^-λ

Take the In of both sides

In(0.1) = - λ

-2.303 = - λ

λ = 2.303

The length of call in second, l

l = λ / r ; r = arrival rate

r = 90 per hour ; this means ;

90 / 3600 = 0.025

l = 2.303 / 0.025

l = 92.12 seconds

Answers

Given:

The equation of a parabola is:

[tex]y=(x+2)^2-1[/tex]

To find:

The coordinates of the vertex of the given equation.

Solution:

The vertex form of a quadratic function is:

[tex]y=a(x-h)^2+k[/tex]               ...(i)

Where, a is a constant and (h,k) is the vertex.

We have,

[tex]y=(x+2)^2-1[/tex]                 ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

[tex]a=1[/tex]

[tex]h=-2[/tex]

[tex]k=-1[/tex]

We know that the vertex of the parabola is (h,k).

Therefore, the vertex of the given equation is (-2,-1).


Find "n" if the Standard Error of Mis 4 and the population standard deviation is 16.

Answers

Given:

Standard error = 4

Population standard deviation = 16

To find:

The value of n.

Solution:

The formula of standard error is:

[tex]SE=\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

Where, SE is standard error ,  [tex]\sigma[/tex] is population standard deviation and n is the total number of elements.

Substituting [tex]SE=4,\sigma=16[/tex] in the above formula, we get

[tex]4=\dfrac{16}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n}=\dfrac{16}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n}=4[/tex]

Taking square on both sides, we get

[tex]n=4^2[/tex]

[tex]n=16[/tex]

Therefore, the value of n is 16.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

Slope-intercept form: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)

1) Plug in the slope (m)

We're given that the slope is [tex]\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. In [tex]y=mx+b[/tex], replace m with [tex]\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]:

[tex]y=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]

2) Determine the y-intercept (b)

[tex]y=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex]

We're given the point (-9,4). Plug this point into the equation as [tex](x,y)[/tex] and solve for b:

[tex]4=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}(-9)+b\\\\4=\displaystyle\frac{9}{2}+b[/tex]

Subtract [tex]\displaystyle\frac{9}{2}[/tex] from both sides to isolate b:

[tex]4-\displaystyle\frac{9}{2}=\displaystyle\frac{9}{2}+b- \displaystyle\frac{9}{2}\\\\\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2} = b[/tex]

Therefore, the y-intercept is [tex]\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. Plug this back into [tex]y=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}x+b[/tex] as b:

[tex]y=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}x+(\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2})\\\\y=\displaystyle-\frac{1}{2}x-\displaystyle\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
