A researcher is interested in exploring the relationship between calcium intake and weight loss. Two different groups, each with 25 dieters, are chosen for the study.
Group A is required to follow a specific diet and exercise regimen, and also take a 500-mg supplement of calcium each day.
Group B is required to follow the same diet and exercise regimen, but with no supplemental calcium. After six months on the program, the members of Group A had lost a mean of 12.7 pounds with a standard deviation of 2.2 pounds. The members of Group B had lost a mean of 10.8 pounds with a standard deviation 2.0 pounds during the same time period. Assume that the population variances are not the same.
Create and interpret a 95% confidence interval to estimate the true difference between the mean amounts of weight lost by dieters who supplement with calcium and those who do not.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(0.7044 ; 3.0956)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

GROUP A:

n1 = 25

x1 = 12.7

s1 = 2.2

GROUP B :

n2 = 25

x2 = 10.8

s2= 2.0

The obtain the confidence interval assuming unequal population variance :

(x1 - x2) ± tα/2[√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)]

The degree of freedom :

df = (s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)² ÷ (s1²/n1)²/n1-1 + (s2²/n2)²/n2-1

The degree of freedom :

(2.2²/25 + 2²/25)² ÷ (2.2²/25)²/24 + (2²/25)²/24

df = 0.12503296 ÷ (0.0015617 + 0.0010666)

df = 47.57 ;

df = 48

Tcritical value ; α = 95% ; df = 48

Tcritical = 2.0106

C.I = (12.7 - 10.8) ± 2.0106[√(2.2²/25 + 2²/25)]

C.I = 1.9 ± (2.0106 * 0.5946427)

C.I = 1.9 ± 1.1955887

C. I = (0.7044 ; 3.0956)

Answers

Answer: (300 + 45x) / x

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the information given in the question, the total cost will be the addition of the fixed cost and the variable cost which will be:

= 300 + (45 × x)

= 300 + 45x

The amount that needs to be charge for each attendee in order to cover the cost of hosting the event will be:

a.) Who has the most money after 15 years? Clearly show all work to support your answer.
b.) How long will it take for Tom’s investment to triple in value?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

TOM / 6.02 years

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tom: 2000(1.02)^15 =  $2,691.74  

Jerry: 1800(1.025)^15 =  $2,606.94

TOM has more money after 15 years...

Pauline mixed 0.32 liter of syrup with 12 times as much water to make orange squash.She split 1.28 liter of orange squash.Then she poured the remaining orange squash equally into 4 bottles.How much orange squash were there in each bottle.Give your answer in Liters.​

Answers

Answer:

0.72 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

Litres of syrup = 0.32 litres

Litres of water = 12 times the amount of syrup = 12 * 0.32 = 3.84 litres

Litres of orange squash = litres of syrup + litres of water

Litres of orange squash = (0.32 + 3.84) = 4.16 litres

Amount of orange squash litres split = 1.28 litres

Amount of orange squash left = (4.16 - 1.28) = 2.88 litres

Splitting the amount of squash left equally into 4 :

2.88 litres / 4 = 0.72 litres

...The first three terms of an arithmetic progression (A.P) are (x+1),(4x-2) and(6x-3) respectively .If the last term is 18,find the
a.Value of x b.Sum of the terms of the progression

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

[tex]S_n = 63[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]a_1 = x + 1[/tex]

[tex]a_2 = 4x -2[/tex]

[tex]a_3 = 6x -3[/tex]

[tex]a_n = 18[/tex]

Solving (a): x

To do this, we make use of common difference (d)

[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]

[tex]d = a_3 - a_2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]a_3 - a_2 = a_2 - a_1[/tex]

Substitute known values

[tex](6x - 3) - (4x - 2) = (4x - 2) - (x + 1)[/tex]

Remove brackets

[tex]6x - 3 - 4x + 2 = 4x - 2 - x - 1[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]6x - 4x- 3 + 2 = 4x - x- 2 - 1[/tex]

[tex]2x- 1 = 3x- 3[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]2x - 3x = 1 - 3[/tex]

[tex]-x = -2[/tex]

[tex]x = 2[/tex]

Solving (b): Sum of progression

First, we calculate the first term

[tex]a_1 = x + 1[/tex]

[tex]a_1 = 2 + 1 = 3[/tex]

Next, calculate d

[tex]d = a_2 - a_1[/tex]

[tex]d = (4x - 2) - (x +1)[/tex]

[tex]d = (4*2 - 2) - (2 +1)[/tex]

[tex]d = 6 - 3 = 3[/tex]

Next, we calculate n using:

[tex]a_n = a + (n - 1)d[/tex]

Where:

[tex]a_n = 18[/tex]

[tex]d = 3; a = 3[/tex]

So:

[tex]18 = 3 +(n - 1) * 3[/tex]

Subtract 3 from both sides

[tex]15 = (n - 1) * 3[/tex]

Divide both sides by 3

[tex]5 = n - 1[/tex]

Add 1 to both sides

[tex]6 = n[/tex]

[tex]n = 6[/tex]

The sum of the progression is:

[tex]S_n = \frac{n}{2} * [a + a_n][/tex]

So,, we have:

[tex]S_n = \frac{6}{2} * [3 + 18][/tex]

[tex]S_n = 3 * 21[/tex]

[tex]S_n = 63[/tex]

The test-statistic is (to 3 decimals). -value (to 4 decimals) What is your conclusion

Answers

Answer:

χ² = 19

Pvalue = 0.0008 ( 4 decimal places)

WE reject the H0 and conclude that probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : probability of complaint is the same for the 5 industries.

H1: probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries.

Category ____ observed frequency

Bank _______ 26

Cable _______44

Car _________42

Cell _________60

Collection ____ 28

Total ________200

The test statistic ;

χ² = (O - E)² / E

O = Observed Frequency ; E = Expected Frequency

Expected Frequency, E = (1 / n) * total

n = number of industries = 5

Expected frequency, E = (1/5)*200 = 40

Expected frequency is the same for all, thus E for all 5 industries = 40

χ² = Σ(O - E)² / E;

χ² = (26-40)² / 40 + (44-40)² / 40 + (42-40)² / 40 + (60-40)² / 40 + (28-40)² / 40

χ² = 19

At α = 0.05 ; df = n-1 = 4 ; χ²critical = 0.000786

Since Pvalue < α ; WE reject the H0 and conclude that probability of complaint is not the same for the 5 industries.

Lily wants to put a ribbon border around two round clocks. Each clock has a diameter of 24 centimeters. Using 3.14 for π, approximately how many meters of ribbon does Lily need?

Answers

Answer:

1.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to use circumference for this problem and the formula is dπ.

Plug in:

24π

Solve with pi:

24×3.14 = 75.36

Since there is two clocks, multiply:

75.36 × 2 = 150.72

In 1 meter there is 100 centimeters so divide

150.75 ÷ 100 = 1.5

So you will need 1.5 meters of ribbon.

From September 1991 to September 1994 the enrollment at a particular school declined by 20 percent. If the number of students enrolled at that school in September 1994 was 720, what was the enrollment in September 1991

Answers

Answer:

900

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Enrollment declined by 20% from between September 1991 to September 1994

This means there was a reduction in enrollment ;

Enrollment in September 1994 = 720

Enrollment in September 1991 = x

Hence,

Enrollment in 1994 = (1 - decline rate ) * enrollment in 1991

720 = (1 - 20%) * x

720 = (1 - 0.2) * x

720 = 0.8x

720 / 0.8 = 0.8x/0.8

900 = x

Hence, Enrollment in September 1991 = 900 enrollments

What is the solution to the system of equations? 5x-2y=-16 4x-5y=-23

Answers

Answer:

The solution set is {-2, 3}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can do this by elimination after manipulating the 2 equations so that the coefficients of  y  will disappear after addition:

5x - 2y = -16        Multiply this by -5:

-25x + 10y = 80 ...........(A)

4x - 5y = -23       Multiply this by 2:

8x - 10y = -46..............(B)

Now add A and B:

-17x = 34

x = 34/-17

x = -2.

Now substitute x = -2 into the first original equation:

5(-2) - 2y = -16

-2y = -16 +10 = -6

y = -6/-2

y = 3.

Confirm these results by substitution in the second original equation:

4(-2) - 5(3)

= - 8  - 15 = -23.

The increase divided by the run, or the ratio of the rise to the run is known as the line's slope. The coordinate plane describes the slope of the line.

The slope-intercept form of a line is Y = m*X +C.

Given an equation 3x-9y = -72, which we will try to make in the slope-intercept form by using simplification.

3x-9y = -72
