A gaming company would like to test the hypothesis that the average age of someone who uses gaming console A is different from the average age of someone who uses gaming console B. A random sample of 36 gaming console A users had an average age of 34.2 years while a random sample of 30 gaming console B users had an average age of 32.7 years. Assume that the population standard deviation for the age of gaming console A and gaming console B users is 3.9 and 4.0​ years, respectively. This company would like to set α = 0.10.
a) What is the critical value for this hypothesis​ test?
a) 2.33
b) 1.28
c) 1.645
d) 1.96
b) What is the 90% confidence interval for the difference in population means?
a) (-0.11, 3.11)
b) (-1.70, 4.70)
c) (0.65, 2.35)
d) (1.18, 1.82)

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Question a:

c) 1.645

Question b:

a) (-0.11, 3.11)

Step-by-step explanation:

Before answering the question, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction between normal variables:

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

A random sample of 36 gaming console A users had an average age of 34.2 years, with a standard deviation of 3.9 years.

This means that [tex]\mu_A = 34.2, s_A = \frac{3.9}{\sqrt{36}} = 0.65[/tex]

A random sample of 30 gaming console B users had an average age of 32.7 years, with a standard deviation of 4 years.

This means that [tex]\mu_B = 32.7, s_B = \frac{4}{\sqrt{30}} = 0.73[/tex]

Distribution of the difference in population means:

[tex]\mu = \mu_A - \mu_B = 34.2 - 32.7 = 1.5[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_A^2+s_B^2} = \sqrt{0.65^2+0.73^2} = 0.9774[/tex]

a) What is the critical value for this hypothesis​ test?

We test if the means are different, which means that we have a two-tailed test.

We have the standard deviations for the population, which means that we have a Z test.

Since it is a two-tailed Z-test, the critical value is Z with a p-value of 1 - (0.1/2) = 1 - 0.05 = 0.95, so, looking at the z-table, Z = 1.645, which is option C.

b) What is the 90% confidence interval for the difference in population means?

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.9}{2} = 0.05[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.05 = 0.95[/tex], so Z = 1.645.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = zs[/tex]

[tex]M = 1.645*0.9774 = 1.61[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 1.5 - 1.61 = -0.11

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 1.5 + 1.61 = 3.11

The correct answer is given by option A.

Robin has a rectangular picture frame that is 8 1/2 by 11 inches. What is the
approximate perimeter of the picture frame in centimeters?

Answers

Answer: 99.06cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 1 inch = 2.54cm

Therefore, we'll convert the sides of the frame in inches to cm. This will be:

8 1/2 inch = 8.5 × 2.54cm = 21.59cm

11inches = 11 × 2.54cm = 27.94cm

Therefore, the perimeter of a rectangle will be:

= 2(length + width)

= 2(27.94 + 21.59)

= 2(49.53)

= 99.06cm

Answers

Answer:

[tex]R_5=1.12[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to calculate the right-endpoint approximation (the right Riemann sum) for the function:

[tex]f(x)=x^2+x[/tex]

On the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles.

Find the width of each rectangle:

[tex]\displaystyle \Delta x=\frac{1-(-1)}{5}=\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

List the x-coordinates starting with -1 and ending with 1 with increments of 2/5:

-1, -3/5, -1/5, 1/5, 3/5, 1.

Since we are find the right-hand approximation, we use the five coordinates on the right.

Evaluate the function for each value. This is shown in the table below.

Each area of each rectangle is its area (the y-value) times its width, which is a constant 2/5. Hence, the approximation for the area under the curve of the function f(x) over the interval [-1, 1] using five equal rectangles is:

[tex]\displaystyle R_5=\frac{2}{5}\left(-0.24+-0.16+0.24+0.96+2)= 1.12[/tex]

It has been observed that some persons who suffer acute heartburn, again suffer acute heartburn within one year of the first episode. This is due, in part, to damage from the first episode. The performance of a new drug designed to prevent a second episode is to be tested for its effectiveness in preventing a second episode. In order to do this two groups of people suffering a first episode are selected. There are 163 people in the first group and this group will be administered the new drug. There are 160 people in the second group and this group wil be administered a placebo. After one year, 13% of the first group has a second episode and 14% of the second group has a second episode.

a) [0.00590, 0.0251].
b) [0.00690, 0.0551].
c) [0.0890, 0.0551].
d) [0.00690, 0.0351].
e) [0.00890, 0.0651].

Answers

Answer:

90% confidence interval for the difference in true proportion of the two groups is (-0.0717, 0.0517).

Step-by-step explanation:

Before building the confidence interval, we need to understand the central limit theorem and subtraction of normal variables.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex]

Subtraction between normal variables:

When two normal variables are subtracted, the mean is the difference of the means, while the standard deviation is the square root of the sum of the variances.

First group: Sample of 163, 13% has a second episode.

This means that:

[tex]p_1 = 0.13, s_1 = \sqrt{\frac{0.13*0.87}{163}} = 0.026[/tex]

Second group: Sample of 160, 14% has a second episode

This means that:

[tex]p_2 = 0.14, s_2 = \sqrt{\frac{0.14*0.86}{160}} = 0.027[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_1 - p_2 = 0.13 - 0.14 = -0.01[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2+s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.026^2+0.027^2} = 0.0375[/tex]

Confidence interval:

The confidence interval is:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

Lower bound:

[tex]p - 1.645s = -0.01 - 1.645*0.0375 = -0.0717[/tex]

Upper bound:

[tex]p + 1.645s = -0.01 + 1.645*0.0375 = 0.0517[/tex]

90% confidence interval for the difference in true proportion of the two groups is (-0.0717, 0.0517).

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the cylinder of radius 5 cm and a height of 5 cm will be equal to 392.7 cubics cm

What is the volume of a cylinder?

The volume of the cylinder is the product of the height, pie, and square of the radius.

The volume of the cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

It is given that the radius of the cylinder is 5 cm and the height of the cylinder is 5 cm also.

So, The volume of the cylinder = [tex]\pi r^{2} h[/tex]

                                                  = 3.14 x 5^2 x 5

                                                  = 3.14 x 125

                                                 = 392.7 cubics cm

Thus, The volume of the cylinder of radius 5 cm and a height of 5 cm will be equal to 392.7 cubics cm.
