A two-sample t-test for a difference in means will be conducted to investigate whether the average amount of money spent per customer at Department Store M is different from that at Department Store V. From a random sample of 35 customers at Store M, the average amount spent was $300 with standard deviation $40. From a random sample of 40 customers at Store V, the average amount spent was $290 with standard deviation $35. Assuming a null hypothesis of no difference in population means, what is the test statistic for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means?

Answers

Answer 1

The test statistic is 1.145 for the appropriate test to investigate whether there is a difference in population means.

A test statistic is a numerical value calculated from sample data in hypothesis testing.

Given that

Sample 1: Store M

Sample size, [tex]n_1[/tex] = 35,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_1}[/tex] = 300,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_1[/tex] = 40.

Sample 2: Store V

Sample size, [tex]n_2[/tex] = 40,

Sample mean, [tex]\bar{X_2}[/tex] = 290,

Standard deviation, [tex]s_2[/tex] = 35.

The null hypothesis, [tex]H_o[/tex] : there is no difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 =\mu_2[/tex].

The alternate hypothesis, [tex]H_1[/tex] : there is a significant difference in population means, i.e.,

[tex]\mu_1 \neq\mu_2[/tex].

Under the null hypothesis, the test statistic is

[tex]t = \dfrac{\bar{X_1}-\bar{X_2}}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1}+\frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }}[/tex]

  [tex]= \dfrac{300-290}{\sqrt{\frac{40^2}{35}+\frac{35^2}{40} }}\\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{\frac{1600}{35}+\frac{1225}{40} }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{45.714+30.625 }} \\=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{76.339 }}\\=\dfrac{10}{8.737}\\=1.145[/tex]

Hence the test statistic is 1.145.

Three bowls and four mugs can hold a total of 2.52 litres of water. Each bowl can hold
70 ml more than a mug. How much water can a mug hold? Give your answer in litres.
​(with full working)

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  0.33 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

If a mug can hold a volume of m litres, then a bowl can hold a volume of m+0.07 litres. The total volume held by the given containers is ...

  3(m +0.07) +4m = 2.52

  7m +0.21 = 2.52 . . . . . . . . simplify

  7m = 2.31 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 0.21

  m = 0.33 . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 7

Each mug can hold 0.33 litres.

Determine whether the statement is always, sometimes, or never true. Lines AB, CD, and EF determine plan P. If GH intersects AB, then GH lies on plan P.

Answers

Answer:  sometimes true

=======================================================

Explanation:

The plane P can be thought of a perfectly flat ground. Now imagine a flag pole which represents line GH. If AB is drawn in chalk on the pavement, and this line AB intersects the base of the flagpole, then we've made AB and GH intersect. However, this example shows that GH is not on the plane P.

Is it possible to have GH be in the the plane? Yes. We could easily draw another chalk line on the ground to have it intersect AB somewhere. But as the previous paragraph says, it's also possible that GH is not in the plane.

Therefore, the statement is sometimes true

Whilst l am aware that schools are always short of cash for what may be regarded as non-essentials, l would like the opportunity to discuss with you my ideas on dealing with this very important aspect of basic hygiene, cleanliness and education if it is found to be that the insanitary conditions are such which young people themselves may be partly responsible.

A car travels at an average speed of 52 miles per hour. How long does it take to travel 247 miles?

Answers

Answer:

It takes 4.75 hours(4 hours and 45 minutes) to travel 247 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved by rates, using a rule of three.

52 miles in one hour. How many hours for 247 miles?

1 hour - 52 miles

x hours - 247 miles

Applying cross multiplication:

[tex]52x = 247[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{247}{52}[/tex]

[tex]x = 4.75[/tex]

It takes 4.75 hours = 4 hours and 3/4*60 = 45 minutes to travel 247 miles.

) As an ice cube melts its surface area is decreasing at a rate of 6cm2/sec. Find the rate at which the length of each side is decreasing at the moment when each side has length 2 cm. [Hint: a cube has 6 sides and each side has area x 2 where x is the side length]

Answers

Answer:

The rate of decreasing of the length is 0.25 cm/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of the ice cube is:

[tex]A_{ice}=6x^{2}[/tex]

Where x is the side of the cube.

Let's take the derivative of A with respect to "t" to get the rate of change.

[tex]\frac{dA_{ice}}{dt}=12x\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

We know that dA/dt = 6 cm²/s and x is 2 cm, so we just need to solve it for dx/dt which is the rate change of the length.

[tex]6=12(2)\frac{dx}{dt}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dx}{dt}=\frac{1}{4}\: cm/s[/tex]

Therefore, the rate of decreasing of the length is 0.25 cm/s.
