A Biology teacher wants to see if there is any difference in the abilities of students enrolled in biology today and those enrolled five years ago. A sample of final examination scores from students enrolled today and from students enrolled five years ago was taken. You are given the following information. Today Five Years Ago 81 85 σ 14.5 8.5 n 81 36 ​ The point estimate for the difference between the means of the two populations is

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The point estimate for the difference between the means of the two populations is x1`-x2`= 81-85=-4 where x1` is the mean of the of the first population and x2` is the mean of the second population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given is

               Today               Five Years Ago

X`                 81                           85

σ              14.5                        8.5

n                81                          36

The point estimate for the difference between the means of the two populations is x1`-x2`= 81-85=-4 where x1` is the mean of the of the first population and x2` is the mean of the second population.

The test statistics that will be used is

Z= x1-x2/ √σ₁²/ n₁ + σ₂²/n₂

Z=  81- 85/ √14.5² /81 + 8.5² /36

z= -4/√210.25/81+ 72.25/36

z= -4/2.1454

z= -1.8644

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (7, -3) and (7, 0).

Answers

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the x- coordinates of the 2 points are equal, both 7 , then the line is vertical with equation

x = c

where c is the value of the x- coordinates the line passes through, then

x = 7 ← equation of line

Answer:

I hope this is right, im not sure because they are coincides or the same lines when overlapped, but I tried.

3x+0

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula mx+b we can get our answer.

We know that the two points pass through (7, 0)

mx+b is (slope)x+(y-intercept)

The slope of the two lines is 3 so we can replace m for 3:

3x+b

the y-intercept does not exist for these two lines as they are coincides, so we can just put it at 0, so we now have our equation 3x+0.

Yousef buys 40 tokens at the carnival. He gives his sister tokens for 5 kiddie rides. He wants to use the remaining token for thrill rides for himselt.
thrill rides use 5 tokens each and kiddie rides use 3 tokens each, what is the largest number of thrill rides Yousef can go on?

Answers

Answer:

5 rides

Step-by-step explanation: Multiply the number of kiddie rides his sister will go on (5) by the amount of tickets it costs each (3). subract that from 40 (the initial amount of tickets). then divide that by 5 (amount of tickets for  1 thrill ride)

The probability that the patient recovers from a rare deadly disease is 40% and failure to recover is 60%.If 15 people contracted this disease what is the probability that a. 5 will survive? b. 8 will survive? c.12 will survive?(complete solution)​

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.1859 = 18.59% probability that 5 will survive.

b) 0.1181 = 11.81% probability that 8 will survive.

c) 0.0016 = 0.16% probability that 12 will survive.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each patient, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they survive, or they do not. The probability of a patient surviving is independent of any other patient. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

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

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

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

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that the patient recovers from a rare deadly disease is 40%

This means that [tex]p = 0.4[/tex]

15 individuals

This means that [tex]n = 15[/tex]

a. 5 will survive

This is P(X = 5). So

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

[tex]P(X = 5) = C_{15,5}.(0.4)^{5}.(0.6)^{10} = 0.1859[/tex]

0.1859 = 18.59% probability that 5 will survive.

b. 8 will survive

This is P(X = 8). So

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

[tex]P(X = 8) = C_{15,8}.(0.4)^{8}.(0.6)^{7} = 0.1181[/tex]

0.1181 = 11.81% probability that 8 will survive.

c.12 will survive

This is P(X = 12). So

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

[tex]P(X = 12) = C_{15,12}.(0.4)^{12}.(0.6)^{3} = 0.0016[/tex]

0.0016 = 0.16% probability that 12 will survive.

For the following hypothesis test, determine the null and alternative hypotheses. Also, classify the hypothesis test as two-tailed, left-tailed, or right-tailed. The mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this country is 22.1 months. A hypothesis test is to be performed to determine whether the mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this city differs from the national mean of 22.1 months.
Choose the correct null and alternative hypotheses below.
A. H0: μ = 22.1 months
Ha: μ > 22.1 months
B. H0: μ = 22.1 months
Ha: μ 22.1 months
C. H0: μ = 22.1 months
Ha: μ < 22.1 months
D. H0: μ > 22.1 months
Ha: μ = 22.1 months
E. H0: μ 22.1 months
Ha: μ = 22.1 months
F. H0: μ = 22.1 months
Ha: μ > 22.1 months
Which of the following is the correct classification of the hypothesis test?
A. Two-tailed
B. Left-tailed
C. Right-tailed

Answers

Answer:

Option B:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 22.1[/tex]

[tex]H_a: \mu \neq 22.1[/tex]

Classification:

The hypothesis test is Two-tailed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this country is 22.1 months.

This means that the null hypothesis is that the mean is of 22.1 months, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 22.1[/tex]

A hypothesis test is to be performed to determine whether the mean length of imprisonment for motor-vehicle theft offenders in this city differs from the national mean of 22.1 months.

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if this mean is different of 22.1, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu \neq 22.1[/tex]

Which means that the answer is given by option b).

Which of the following is the correct classification of the hypothesis test?

We test if the mean is different from a value, which means that the hypothesis test is Two-tailed.

Daniel loves pizza, so he decided to enter a pizza eating contest. Each contestant was given a 25inch pizza and the winner was determined by who ate the most! Daniel ate the entire pizza and won! How much pizza did he eat? (Hint 25 is the diameter?

Answers

Answer:

490.87 inches²

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we're trying to find: the area of the circular-shaped pizza

What we know: the diameter of the pizza (25 inches)

Area of a circle = [tex]\pi r^2[/tex] where r is the radius of a circle

To find the radius, divide the diameter by 2:

25 inches ÷ 2 = 12.5 inches

Plug 12.5 inches into the area equation

[tex]A=\pi r^2\\A=\pi (12.5)^2\\A=\pi (12.5)^2\\A=156.25\pi \\A=156.25\pi \\A=490.87[/tex]

The area of the circle (pizza) is approximately 490.87 inches².

Therefore, Daniel ate 490.87 inches² worth of pizza.

35 kilograms
3,500 decigrams
350 dekagrams
3,500 grams
PLEASE ANSWER PLEASE​

Answers

Given:

The package weighed 350,000 centigrams.

To find:

The conversions that are equivalent to 350,000 centigrams

Solution:

We know that,

1 centigrams (cg) = 0.000001 kilograms (kg)

1 cg = 0.1 decigrams (dg)

1 cg = 0.001 dekagrams (dag)

1 cg = 0.01 grams (g)

Using these conversions, we get

350,000 centigrams = 3.5 kilograms

350,000 centigrams = 35,000 decigrams

350,000 centigrams = 350 dekagrams

350,000 centigrams = 3,500 grams

Therefore the correct options are C and D.

Ronald runs 6,000 meters in 2 hours. He is thinking of running an 18 kilometers race. How much time will he take in the race if he maintains the same speed?

Answers

Answer:

6 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/ time

6000meters to km = 6000/1000= 6km

speed for the first race = 6/2

speed = 3km/hr

for the second race

speed = distance/time

3 = 18/time

cross multiply

3* t = 18

divide both sides by 3

t = 18/3

t = 6 hours

Answer:

Ronald will take 6 hours to complete the 18 km race if he maintains this speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

6000m in 2h = 6km in 2h

multiply by 3:

18km in 6h
