1. The Wall Street Journal reported that bachelor’s degree recipients with majors in business average starting salaries of $53,900 in 2012 (The Wall Street Journal, March 17, 2014). The results for a sample of 100 business majors receiving a bachelor’s degree in 2013 showed a mean starting salary of $55,144 with a sample standard deviation of $5,200. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether the mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012. Use a = .01 as the level of significance

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The calculated value t = 4.976 > 2.6264 at 0.01 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

Alternative hypothesis is accepted

The  mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Mean of the population μ = $53,900

Given sample size 'n' = 100

Mean of the sample size x⁻ = 55,144

Sample standard deviation 'S' = 5200

Null hypothesis:H₀: There is no difference between the means

Alternative Hypothesis :H₁: The  mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012

Test statistic

[tex]t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{55144-53900}{\frac{5200}{\sqrt{100} } }[/tex]

t = 4.976

Degrees of freedom

ν = n-1 = 100-1 =99

t₀.₀₁ = 2.6264

The calculated value t = 4.976 > 2.6264 at 0.01 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

Alternative hypothesis is accepted

Final answer:-

The  mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012

Answer 2

Answer:

We conclude that the mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the Wall Street Journal reported that bachelor’s degree recipients with majors in business average starting salaries of $53,900 in 2012.

A sample of 100 business majors receiving a bachelor’s degree in 2013 showed a mean starting salary of $55,144 with a sample standard deviation of $5,200.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean starting salary for business majors in 2013.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] $53,900     {means that the mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is smaller than or equal to the mean starting salary in 2012}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > $53,900     {means that the mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics because we don't know about population standard deviation;

                               T.S. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_n_-_1[/tex]

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean starting salary = $55,144

            s = sample standard deviation = $5,200

            n = sample of business majors = 100

So, the test statistics  =  [tex]\frac{55,144-53,900}{\frac{5,200}{\sqrt{100} } }[/tex]  ~ [tex]t_9_9[/tex]

                                     =  2.392

The value of t-test statistic is 2.392.

Now, at 0.01 significance level the t table gives a critical value of 2.369 at 99 degree of freedom for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as 2.392 > 2.369, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean starting salary for business majors in 2013 is greater than the mean starting salary in 2012.

A nationwide survey of seniors by the University of Michigan reveals that almost 18.0% disapprove of daily pot smoking. If 8 seniors are selected at random, what is the probability that at least 2 disapprove of daily pot smoking.

Answers

Answer:

[tex] P(X\geq 2)=1- P(X<2)= 1-[P(X=0) +P(X=1)][/tex]

And using the probability mass function we can find the individual probabilities:

[tex]P(X=0)=(8C0)(0.18)^0 (1-0.18)^{8-0}=0.2044[/tex]

[tex]P(X=1)=(8C1)(0.18)^1 (1-0.18)^{0-1}=0.3590[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] P(X\geq 2)=1 -[0.2044 +0.3590]= 0.4366[/tex]

Then the probability that at least 2 disapprove of daily pot smoking is 0.4366

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of seniors who disapprove of daily smoking ", on this case we now that:

[tex]X \sim Binom(n=8, p=0.18)[/tex]

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

[tex]P(X)=(nCx)(p)^x (1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

[tex]nCx=\frac{n!}{(n-x)! x!}[/tex]

And we want to find this probability:

[tex] P(X\geq 2)=1- P(X<2)= 1-[P(X=0) +P(X=1)][/tex]

And using the probability mass function we can find the individual probabilities:

[tex]P(X=0)=(8C0)(0.18)^0 (1-0.18)^{8-0}=0.2044[/tex]

[tex]P(X=1)=(8C1)(0.18)^1 (1-0.18)^{0-1}=0.3590[/tex]

And replacing we got:

[tex] P(X\geq 2)=1 -[0.2044 +0.3590]= 0.4366[/tex]

Then the probability that at least 2 disapprove of daily pot smoking is 0.4366

A researcher used the technique with 9 students and observed that they had a mean of 10.8 hours with a standard deviation of 1.5. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Since the p value is higher than the the significance level of 0.05 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from the traditional methods.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this first part of the problem obtained from the web: "Using traditional methods, it takes 11.0 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed"

Answers

Answer:

A. The E(Y) is 0.80

B. The expected amount of the surcharges is $165

Step-by-step explanation:

A. In order to calculate the E(Y), we would have to calculate the following formula:

E(Y)=∑yp(y)

E(Y)=(0*0.5)+(1*0.25)+(2*0.20)+(3*0.05)

E(Y)=0+0.25+0.40+0.15

E(Y)=0.80

B. In order to calculate the expected amount of the surcharges we would have to calculate the following formula:

E($110Y∧2)=110E(Y∧2)

=110∑y∧2p(y)

=110((0∧2*0.5)+(1∧2*0.25)+(2∧2*0.20)+(3∧2*0.05))

110(0+0.25+0.80+0.45)

Place your LOWER limit, rounded to 3 decimal places, in the first blank. For example, 0.123 would be a legitimate answer. Place your UPPER limit, rounded to 3 decimal places, in the second blank. For example, 0.345 would be a legitimate entry.

Answers

Answer:

The 88% confidence interval for the proportion of defectives today is (0.053, 0.123)

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

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

For this problem, we have that:

[tex]n = 160, \pi = \frac{14}{160} = 0.088[/tex]

88% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.12[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.12}{2} = 0.94[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.555[/tex].

The lower limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi - z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.088 - 1.555\sqrt{\frac{0.088*0.912}{160}} = 0.053[/tex]

The upper limit of this interval is:

[tex]\pi + z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}} = 0.088 + 1.555\sqrt{\frac{0.088*0.912}{160}} = 0.123[/tex]

The 88% confidence interval for the proportion of defectives today is (0.053, 0.123)

Step-by-step explanation:

No, the vertices of the image and pre-image do not correspond, Micaela tried to rotate the square 180° about the origin. Hence, option C is correct.

What is rotation about the origin?

A figure can be rotated by 90 degrees clockwise by rotating each vertex of the figure 90 degrees clockwise about the origin.

Let's take the vertices of a square with points at (+1,+1), (-1,+1), (-1,-1), and (+1,-1), centered at the origin, can be found in the following positions after rotation:

The vertex (+1,+1) would be rotated to the point (-1,-1).The vertex (-1,+1) would be rotated to the point (+1,-1).The vertex (-1,-1) would be rotated to the point (+1,+1).The vertex (+1,-1) would be rotated to the point (-1,+1).

Micaela's rotation must be accurate if it led to the same points. Her rotation is incorrect if the points are different, though.

It is impossible to tell if Micaela's rotation is accurate without more details or a diagram.

Thus, option C is correct.

A financial advisor is analyzing a family's estate plan. The amount of money that the family has invested in different real estate properties is normally distributed with a mean of $225,000 and a standard deviation of $50,000. Use a calculator to find how much money separates the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings.

Answers

Answer:

The amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X represent the amount of money that the family has invested in different real estate properties.

The random variable X follows a Normal distribution with parameters μ = $225,000 and σ = $50,000.

It is provided that the family has invested in n = 10 different real estate properties.

Then the mean and standard deviation of amount of money that the family has invested in these 10 different real estate properties is:

[tex]\mu_{\bar x}=\mu=\$225,000\\\\\sigma_{\bar x}=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}=\frac{50000}{\sqrt{10}}=15811.39[/tex]

Now the lowest 80% of the amount invested can be represented as follows:

[tex]P(\bar X<\bar x)=0.80\\\\\Rightarrow P(Z<z)=0.80[/tex]

The value of z is 0.84.

*Use a z-table.

Compute the value of the mean amount invested as follows:

[tex]\bar x=\mu_{\bar x}+z\cdot \sigma_{\bar x}[/tex]

   [tex]=225000+(0.84\times 15811.39)\\\\=225000+13281.5676\\\\=238281.5676\\\\\approx 238281.57[/tex]

Thus, the amount of money separating the lowest 80% of the amount invested from the highest 20% in a sampling distribution of 10 of the family's real estate holdings is $238,281.57.

The number of different codes available is nothing.

Answers

Answer:

(a) 125

[tex](b) \dfrac{1}{125}[/tex]

[tex](c) \dfrac{124}{125}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that access code consists of 3 digits.

Each digit can be any digit through 1 to 5 and can be repeated.

Now, this problem is equivalent to the problem that we have to find:

The number of 3 digit numbers that can be formed using the digits 1 to 5 with repetition allowed.

(a) We have 3 places here, unit's, ten's and hundred's places respectively and  each of the 3 places have 5 possibilities (any digit allowed with repetition).

So, total number of access codes possible:

[tex]5\times 5 \times 5 = 125[/tex]

(b) Suppose, an access code is randomly selected, what is the probability that it will be correct.

Formula for probability of an event E can be observed as:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{\text{Number of favorable cases}}{\text {Total number of cases}}[/tex]

Here, only 1 code is correct, so

Number of favorable cases = 1

Total number of cases = 125

So, required probability:

[tex]P(E) = \dfrac{1}{125}[/tex]

(c) Probability of not selecting the correct access code on first time:

[tex]P(\overline E) = 1-P(E)\\\Rightarrow P(\overline E) = 1-\dfrac{1}{125}\\\Rightarrow P(\overline E) = \dfrac{125-1}{125}\\\Rightarrow P(\overline E) = \dfrac{124}{125}[/tex]

So, the answers are:

(a) 125

[tex](b) \dfrac{1}{125}[/tex]

[tex](c) \dfrac{124}{125}[/tex]

Question:

You are interested in estimating the the mean age of the citizens living in your community. In order to do this, you plan on constructing a confidence interval; however, you are not sure how many citizens should be included in the sample. If you want your sample estimate to be within 5 years of the actual mean with a confidence level of 97% , how many citizens should be included in your sample? Assume that the standard deviation of the ages of all the citizens in this community is 18 years.

Answer:

61.03

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Standard deviation = 18

Sample estimate = 5

Confidence level = 97%

Required:

Find sample size, n.

First find the Z value. Using zscore table

Z-value at a confidence level of 97% = 2.17

To find the sample size, use the formula below:

[tex] n = (Z * \frac{\sigma}{E})^2[/tex]

[tex] n = ( 2.17 * \frac{18}{5})^2 [/tex]

[tex] n = (2.17 * 3.6)^2 [/tex]

[tex] n = (7.812)^2 [/tex]

[tex] n = 61.03 [/tex]

Sample size = 61.03

Suppose the proportion X of surface area in a randomly selected quadrat that is covered by a certain plant has a standard beta distribution with α = 4 and β = 3.(a) Compute E(X) and V(X). (Round your answers to four decimal places.)E(X) = Correct: Your answer is correct.V(X) = Correct: Your answer is correct.(b) Compute P(X ≤ 0.5). (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

Answers

Answer:

(a) The value of E (X) is 4/7.

    The value of V (X) is 3/98.

(b) The value of P (X ≤ 0.5) is 0.3438.

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is defined as the proportion of surface area in a randomly selected quadrant that is covered by a certain plant.

The random variable X follows a standard beta distribution with parameters α = 4 and β = 3.

The probability density function of X is as follows:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^{\alpha-1}(1-x)^{\beta-1}}{B(\alpha,\beta)} ; \hspace{.3in}0 \le x \le 1;\ \alpha, \beta > 0[/tex]

Here, B (α, β) is:

[tex]B(\alpha,\beta)=\frac{(\alpha-1)!\cdot\ (\beta-1)!}{((\alpha+\beta)-1)!}[/tex]

            [tex]=\frac{(4-1)!\cdot\ (3-1)!}{((4+3)-1)!}\\\\=\frac{6\times 2}{720}\\\\=\frac{1}{60}[/tex]

So, the pdf of X is:

[tex]f(x) = \frac{x^{4-1}(1-x)^{3-1}}{1/60}=60\cdot\ [x^{3}(1-x)^{2}];\ 0\leq x\leq 1[/tex]

(a)

Compute the value of E (X) as follows:

[tex]E (X)=\frac{\alpha }{\alpha +\beta }[/tex]

         [tex]=\frac{4}{4+3}\\\\=\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

The value of E (X) is 4/7.

Compute the value of V (X) as follows:

[tex]V (X)=\frac{\alpha\ \cdot\ \beta}{(\alpha+\beta)^{2}\ \cdot\ (\alpha+\beta+1)}[/tex]

         [tex]=\frac{4\cdot\ 3}{(4+3)^{2}\cdot\ (4+3+1)}\\\\=\frac{12}{49\times 8}\\\\=\frac{3}{98}[/tex]

The value of V (X) is 3/98.

(b)

Compute the value of P (X ≤ 0.5) as follows:

[tex]P(X\leq 0.50) = \int\limits^{0.50}_{0}{60\cdot\ [x^{3}(1-x)^{2}]} \, dx[/tex]

                    [tex]=60\int\limits^{0.50}_{0}{[x^{3}(1+x^{2}-2x)]} \, dx \\\\=60\int\limits^{0.50}_{0}{[x^{3}+x^{5}-2x^{4}]} \, dx \\\\=60\times [\dfrac{x^4}{4}+\dfrac{x^6}{6}-\dfrac{2x^5}{5}]\limits^{0.50}_{0}\\\\=60\times [\dfrac{x^4\left(10x^2-24x+15\right)}{60}]\limits^{0.50}_{0}\\\\=[x^4\left(10x^2-24x+15\right)]\limits^{0.50}_{0}\\\\=0.34375\\\\\approx 0.3438[/tex]

Thus, the value of P (X ≤ 0.5) is 0.3438.

Consider the equation below. (If an answer does not exist, enter DNE.) f(x) = x4 ln(x) (a) Find the interval on which f is increasing. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) Find the interval on which f is decreasing. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) (b) Find the local minimum and maximum values of f. local minimum value local maximum value (c) Find the inflection point. (x, y) = Find the interval on which f is concave up. (Enter your answer using interval notation.) Find the interval on which f is concave down. (Enter your answer using interval notation.)

Answers

Answer: (a) Interval where f is increasing: (0.78,+∞);

Interval where f is decreasing: (0,0.78);

(b) Local minimum: (0.78, - 0.09)

(c) Inflection point: (0.56,-0.06)

Interval concave up: (0.56,+∞)

Interval concave down: (0,0.56)

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) To determine the interval where function f is increasing or decreasing, first derive the function:

f'(x) = [tex]\frac{d}{dx}[/tex][[tex]x^{4}ln(x)[/tex]]

Using the product rule of derivative, which is: [u(x).v(x)]' = u'(x)v(x) + u(x).v'(x),

you have:

f'(x) = [tex]4x^{3}ln(x) + x_{4}.\frac{1}{x}[/tex]

f'(x) = [tex]4x^{3}ln(x) + x^{3}[/tex]

f'(x) = [tex]x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1][/tex]

Now, find the critical points: f'(x) = 0

[tex]x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1][/tex] = 0

[tex]x^{3} = 0[/tex]

x = 0

and

[tex]4ln(x) + 1 = 0[/tex]

[tex]ln(x) = \frac{-1}{4}[/tex]

x = [tex]e^{\frac{-1}{4} }[/tex]

x = 0.78

To determine the interval where f(x) is positive (increasing) or negative (decreasing), evaluate the function at each interval:

interval                 x-value                      f'(x)                       result

0<x<0.78                 0.5                 f'(0.5) = -0.22            decreasing

x>0.78                       1                         f'(1) = 1                  increasing

With the table, it can be concluded that in the interval (0,0.78) the function is decreasing while in the interval (0.78, +∞), f is increasing.

Note: As it is a natural logarithm function, there are no negative x-values.

(b) A extremum point (maximum or minimum) is found where f is defined and f' changes signs. In this case:

Between 0 and 0.78, the function decreases and at point and it is defined at point 0.78;After 0.78, it increase (has a change of sign) and f is also defined;

Then, x=0.78 is a point of minimum and its y-value is:

f(x) = [tex]x^{4}ln(x)[/tex]

f(0.78) = [tex]0.78^{4}ln(0.78)[/tex]

f(0.78) = - 0.092

The point of minimum is (0.78, - 0.092)

(c) To determine the inflection point (IP), calculate the second derivative of the function and solve for x:

f"(x) = [tex]\frac{d^{2}}{dx^{2}}[/tex] [[tex]x^{3}[4ln(x) + 1][/tex]]

f"(x) = [tex]3x^{2}[4ln(x) + 1] + 4x^{2}[/tex]

f"(x) = [tex]x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7][/tex]

[tex]x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7][/tex] = 0

[tex]x^{2} = 0\\x = 0[/tex]

and

[tex]12ln(x) + 7 = 0\\ln(x) = \frac{-7}{12} \\x = e^{\frac{-7}{12} }\\x = 0.56[/tex]

Substituing x in the function:

f(x) = [tex]x^{4}ln(x)[/tex]

f(0.56) = [tex]0.56^{4} ln(0.56)[/tex]

f(0.56) = - 0.06

The inflection point will be: (0.56, - 0.06)

In a function, the concave is down when f"(x) < 0 and up when f"(x) > 0, adn knowing that the critical points for that derivative are 0 and 0.56:

f"(x) =  [tex]x^{2}[12ln(x) + 7][/tex]

f"(0.1) = [tex]0.1^{2}[12ln(0.1)+7][/tex]

f"(0.1) = - 0.21, i.e. Concave is DOWN.

f"(0.7) = [tex]0.7^{2}[12ln(0.7)+7][/tex]

f"(0.7) = + 1.33, i.e. Concave is UP.
