The average weekly assignment score of students in a statistics class is 7 out of 10 points. The professor proposes new incentives to boost the score of the students (like providing internship contacts etc.) He hopes that the results of running this incentives plan for a trial during the next couple of weeks will enable him to conclude that the incentives he offers increase the average weekly assignment score of students. What is the null hypothesis.
A. The average weekly score is strictly more than or equal to 7.
B. The average weekly score is less than our equal to 7.
C. The average weekly score is strictly less than 7.
D. The average weekly score is strictly more than 7.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

B. The average weekly score is less than or equal to 7.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average weekly assignment score of students in a statistics class is 7 out of 10 points. Test if it has increased.

This means that at the null hypothesis it is tested that the mean score of the students has not increased, that is, it still is of at most 7, so:

[tex]H_0: \mu \leq 7[/tex]

And thus, the correct answer is given by option b.

Permutation/Combination:

Answer:

Answers

Answer:

Permutation. ; 83810 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Permutation and combination methods refers to mathematical solution to finding the number of ways of making selection for a group of objects.

Usually, selection process whereby the order of selection does not matter are being treated using permutation, while those which takes the order of selection into cognizance are calculated using combination.

Here, selecting 2 members (president and vice president) from 290 ; since order of arrangement does not matter, we use permutation ;

Recall :

nPr = n! ÷ (n - r)!

Hence,

290P2 = 290! ÷ (290 - 2)!

290P2 = 290! ÷ 288!

290P2 = (290 * 289) = 83810 ways

Mrs. Gomez has two kinds of flowers in her garden. The ratio of lilies to daisies in the garden is 5:2

If there are 20 lilies, what is the total number of flowers in her garden?

Answers

Answer:

28

Step-by-step explanation:

5 : 2

since this is a simplified ratio, they have a common factor. let's say it is 'x'

so now :

5x : 2x

we know that 5x is lilies, and we also know that she has 20 lilies, so:

5x = 20

x = 4

the daisies would be 2x so 2*4 = 8

total flowers is 20 + 8

The perimeter of a fence is 64 feet. The length is 4 feet less than twice the width. What is the length of the fence?

Answers

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

let the width be x

length = 2x-4

perimeter = 2 length + 2 width = 2(2x-4)+2x = 4x-8+2x = 6x-8

6x-8 = 64

6x = 72

x = 12

length = 2x-4 = 2(12)-4 = 20

An auto transport truck holds cars. A car dealer plans to bring in new cars in June and July. If an auto transport truck is filled for each delivery, except for the last one, how many full truckloads are needed and how many cars will be in the last truck?

Answers

Answer:

95 truckloads

Last truck = 10 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Capacity of auto truck = 12 cars

Total number of cars to be brought in = 1150

The number of truckloads required :

Total number of cars to be brought in / capacity of auto truck

Number of truckloads = 1150 / 12 = 95.83333

This means that the number of full truckloads required will be, the whole number = 95

The last truck won't be full and will contain :

1150 - (95 * 12)

1150 - 1140

= 10 cars

Suppose that 25% of people own dogs If you pick three people at random, what
is the probability that they all three own a dog? (Let me add that we don’t know the
populations size so calculate the probability as if the population is infinite.)

Answers

Answer:

1/64

Step-by-step explanation:

25% own a dog, so picking one person has a probability of 1/4 (0.25) for that person to own a dog.

picking 3 people means combining (multiplying) the probabilities of the non-overlapping and non-depending events.

picking the third person has 1/4 chance of owning a dog (as the population is "infinite") combined with the chance that also the second pick owned a dog, which has to be combined with the chance of the first pick owning a dog.

so,

1/4 × 1/4 × 1/4 = 1/4³ = 1/64 = 0.015625

What constant acceleration is required to increase the speed of a car from 30 miyh to 50 miyh in 5 seconds?

Answers

Answer:

The acceleration is 1.8 m/s^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

initial velocity, u = 30 mph = 13.4 m/s

Final velocity, v = 50 mph = 22.4 m/s

time, t = 5 s

Let the acceleration is a.

Use first equation of motion

v = u + at

22.4 = 13.4 + 5 a

a = 1.8 m/s^2

Independent simple random samples are selected to test the difference between the means of two populations whose standard deviations are not known. We are unwilling to assume that the population variances are equal. The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35. The correct distribution to use is the:
1) t distribution with 59 degrees of freedom.
2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.
3) t distribution with 61 degrees of freedom.
4) t distribution with 60 degrees of freedom.

Answers

Answer:

2) t distribution with 58 degrees of freedom.

Step-by-step explanation:

Population standard deviations not known:

This means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The sample sizes are n1 = 25 and n2 = 35.

The number of degrees of freedom is the sum of the sample sizes subtracted by the number of samples, in this case 2. So

25 + 35 - 2 = 58 df.

Thus the correct answer is given by option 2.

Step 1 of 2 : Find the critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

The t value for 99% CI for 21 df is 2.831.

The critical value that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is (64.593, 86.407).

Step-by-step explanation:

Now the sample size is less than 30 and also population standard deviation is not known.

Then we will use t distribution to find CI

t value for 99% CI for 21 df is TINV(0.01,21)=2.831

The margin of error is [tex]E=t\times\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}\\\\=2.831\times\frac{18.07}{\sqrt{22}}\\\\=10.907[/tex]

Hence CI is[tex]CI=\overline{x} \pm E\\\\ =75.50 \pm 10.907\\\\=(64.593,86.407 )[/tex]

what is the area of a circle if the radius is 9 m​

Answers

Answer:

(approximately) 254.34 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Concepts:

Area is the amount of space a 2D shape has.The area of a circle is the amount of space it has. The formula to find the area is πr^2, where r is the radius and  π is often represented as 3.14 or 22/7. The radius of a circle is a straight line from the center to the circumference of it. The radius is 1/2 of the diameter, meaning the diameter of a circle is a straight line passing from one side to the other side of the circle.

Solving:

Let's use the formula for area of a circle to solve.

1. Formula for Area of a Circle

πr^2

2. Exchange π for 3.14

3.14 · r^2

3. Plug in the value of r (radius of circle) as 9

3.14 · 9^2

4. Simplify

3.14 · 81254.34

Therefore, the area of a circle when the radius is 9 meters is approximately 254.34 meters.

A telephone service representative believes that the proportion of customers completely satisfied with their local telephone service is different between the South and the Midwest. The representative's belief is based on the results of a survey. The survey included a random sample of 1300 southern residents and 1380 midwestern residents. 39% of the southern residents and 50% of the midwestern residents reported that they were completely satisfied with their local telephone service. Find the 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions. Step 1 of 3 : Find the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval

Answers

Answer:

The point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

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 establishes 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.

Midwest:

50% of 1380, so:

[tex]p_M = 0.5[/tex]

[tex]s_M = \sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{1380}} = 0.0135[/tex]

South:

39% of 1300, so:

[tex]p_S = 0.39[/tex]

[tex]s_S = \sqrt{\frac{0.39*0.61}{1300}} = 0.0135[/tex]

Distribution of the difference:

[tex]p = p_M - p_S = 0.5 - 0.39 = 0.11[/tex]

So the point estimate that should be used in constructing the confidence interval is 0.11.

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2+s_S^2} = \sqrt{0.0135^2+0.0135^2} = 0.0191[/tex]

Confidence interval:

[tex]p \pm zs[/tex]

In which

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

80% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.2[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.2}{2} = 0.9[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.28[/tex].  

The lower bound of the interval is:

[tex]p - zs = 0.11 - 1.28*0.0191 = 0.0856[/tex]

The upper bound of the interval is:

[tex]p + zs = 0.11 + 1.28*0.0191 = 0.1344[/tex]

The 80% confidence interval for the difference in two proportions is (0.0856, 0.1344).

Answer:

  B. neither perpendicular nor parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lines were perpendicular, the coefficients would be swapped and one negated. (You would have 8x -y = c, or 9x +2y = c in the system.)

If the lines were parallel, the coefficients in the two equations would only differ by a common factor. (Both equations would reduce to 2x -9y = c, or x +8y = c.)

The lines are not the same line (coefficients are different).

So, the only reasonable description is ...
