According to the U.S. Energy Information Administration the average number of televisions per household in the United States was 2.3. A college student claims the average number of TV’s per household in the United States is different. He obtains a random sample of 73 households and finds the mean number of TV’s to be 2.1 with a standard deviation of 0.84. Test the student’s claim at the 0.01 significance level.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer with explanation:

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] be the average number of televisions per household in the United States .

As per given ,

[tex]H_0:\mu =2.3\\\\ H_a:\mu\neq2.3[/tex]

Since [tex]H_a[/tex] is two-tailed and population standard deviation is unknown, so the test is two-tailed t-test.

For sample : Sample size : n= 73, sample mean: [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = 2.1, sample standard deviation : s= 0.84.

[tex]t=\dfrac{\overline{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]t=\dfrac{2.1-2.3}{\dfrac{0.84}{\sqrt{73}}}\\\\ t=-2.034[/tex]

T-critical value for degree of freedom n-1 = 73-1=72 and 0.01 significance level is 2.646 . [By students' t-distribution table]

Since, [tex]|2.034|<2.646[/tex] i.e. [tex]|T_{cal}|<|T_{crit}|[/tex]

This means we cannot reject null hypothesis.

We conclude that the average number of televisions per household in the United States is 2.3 at the 0.01 significance level.

In cooking class, Shivani measures a stick
of butter. It is 13 centimeters long, 3
centimeters wide, and 3 centimeters tall. What
is the volume of the stick of butter?​

Answers

Answer:

117 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a rectangular prism, we can simply multiply the length, width and height so the answer is 13 * 3 * 3 = 117 cm³.

Answer:

117 cubic centimeters

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the stick of butter is a perfect rectangular prism, we can calculate the volume by simply multiplying the length, width, and the height as modeled by the volume equation:

V = LWH

For this, the L = 13cm, W = 3cm, and H = 3cm

So our volume in cubic centimeters will be:

V = LWH

V = (13cm) * (3cm) * (3cm)

V = (13cm) * (9cm^2)

V = 117 cm^3

So the volume of the stick of butter is 117 cubic centimeters.

5(y–3.8)=4.7(y–4) help help

Answers

Answer:

y = 2/3 or 0.667

Step-by-step explanation:

5(y–3.8)=4.7(y–4)

Expand the terms in the bracket

That's

5y - 19 = 4.7y - 18.8

Group like terms

5y - 4.7y = 19 - 18.8

0.3y = 0.2

Divide both sides by 0.3

We have the final answer as

y = 2/3 or 0.667

A train goes at a speed of 70km / h. If it remains constant at that speed, how many km will it travel in 60 minutes?

Answers

Answer:

Total distance travel by train =  70 km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Speed of train = 70 km/h

Total time taken = 60 min = 60 / 60 = 1 hour

Find:

Total distance travel by train

Computation:

Distance = Speed × Time

Total distance travel by train = Speed of train × Total time taken

Total distance travel by train = 70 × 1

Total distance travel by train =  70 km

a student ran out of time on a multiple choice exam and randomly guess the answers for two problems each problem have four answer choices ABCD and only one correct answer what is the probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly ​

Answers

Answer:

The probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly ​is 0.0625.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a student ran out of time on a multiple-choice exam and randomly guess the answers for two problems each problem have four answer choices ABCD and only one correct answer.

Let X = Number of problems correctly ​answered by a student.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

[tex]P(X=r)=\binom{n}{r}\times p^{r}\times (1-p)^{n-r};x=0,1,2,3,....[/tex]    

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 2 problems

           r = number of success = neither of the problems are correct

           p = probability of success which in our question is probability that

                 a student answer correctly, i.e; p = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 0.75.

So, X ~ Binom(n = 2, p = 0.75)

Now, the probability that he answered neither of the problems correctly ​is given by = P(X = 0)

             P(X = 0) = [tex]\binom{2}{0}\times 0.75^{0}\times (1-0.75)^{2-0}[/tex]

                            = [tex]1 \times 1\times 0.25^{2}[/tex]

                            = 0.0625

Answers

Answer: stratified

Step-by-step explanation:

In stratified sampling, you divide the population into subgroups, or strata, with similar characteristics, like here we have divided the population into subgroups that depend on their political alignment. This is used when you can expect that the results have a noticeable variation between the different subgroups. Usually, you want to have the same number of population for eac subgroup, but sometimes it is hard for different reasons (not enough people in one subgroup, for example)

In cluster sampling we also use subgroups, but the subgroup itself is the unit of the sampling, while in this case, we are randomly selecting individuals of the given subgroups.

So this would be a "stratified sampling".

Sharvay spends $15 to buy 17 pieces of candy. M&M’s cost $0.75 and candy bars cost $1. How many M&M’s and candy bars did Sharvay buy?

Answers

Answer:

8 M&Ms and 9 Candy Bars

Step-by-step explanation:

$15 dollars could buy 15 candy bars, and there are 17 pieces of candy total.

Prioritizing the number of bars:

0.75 * 2 = 1.50

1.50 * 2 = 3

At least $3 were spend on M&Ms, meaning 4 M&Ms and 12 candy bars, which is only 16 candy pieces...

8 M&Ms and 9 candy bars is equivalent to 17 total candy pieces.

Answer:

P(156<X<202) =  99.7%

P(172<X<196) =  95.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Heights of men on a baseball team have a​ bell-shaped distribution with a mean of and a standard deviation of . Using the empirical​ rule, what is the approximate percentage of the men between the following​ values? a.166 cm and 202 cm b. 172 cm and 196cm

For a.

Using the empirical​ rule, what is the approximate percentage of the men between the following​ values 166 cm and 202 cm.

the z score can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z(166) = \dfrac{166-184}{6}[/tex]

[tex]z(166) = \dfrac{-18}{6}[/tex]

z(166) = -3

[tex]z(202) = \dfrac{202-184}{6}[/tex]

[tex]z(202) = \dfrac{18}{6}[/tex]

z(202) = 3

P(156<X<202) = P( μ - 3σ < X < μ + 3σ )

P(156<X<202) = P( - 3 < Z < 3)

P(156<X<202) = P( Z <  3) - P(Z < -3)

P(156<X<202) = 0.99865-  0.001349

P(156<X<202) =  0.997301

P(156<X<202) =  99.7%

For b.

[tex]z = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]z(172) = \dfrac{172-184}{6}[/tex]

[tex]z(172) = \dfrac{-12}{6}[/tex]

z(172) = -2

[tex]z(196) = \dfrac{196-184}{6}[/tex]

[tex]z(196) = \dfrac{12}{6}[/tex]

z(196) = 2

P(172<X<196) = P( μ - 2σ < X < μ + 2σ )

P(172<X<196) = P( - 2 < Z < 2)

P(172<X<196) = P( Z <  2) - P(Z < -2)

P(172<X<196) = 0.9772 -  0.02275

P(172<X<196) =  0.95445

P(172<X<196) =  95.5%

If the mean difference gets larger and sample standard deviation stays the same, what happens to effect size?

Answers

Answer:

The effect size of the sample gets larger

Step-by-step explanation:

The effect size of the sample gets larger when the mean difference gets larger and the sample standard deviation stays the same. because the Cohen's effect size is proportional to mean difference  and this can be proven below using the Cohen's formula

Cohen's effect size  = Mean difference / standard deviation

form the question standard deviation is constant while the mean difference gets larger, hence the effect size will get larger as well

find the value of x in 81^x=1/3?​

Answers

Answer:

x = -1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]81^{x}[/tex] = 1/3

[tex]3^{4}^{x}[/tex] = [tex]3^{-1}[/tex]

4x = -1

x = -1/4

Answer:

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

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rules of exponents

[tex](a^m)^{n}[/tex] = [tex]a^{mn}[/tex] , [tex]a^{-m}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{a^{m} }[/tex]

Given

[tex]81^{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] [ note that 81 = [tex]3^{4}[/tex] ] , then

[tex](3^4)^{x}[/tex] = [tex]3^{-1}[/tex] , that is

[tex]3^{4x}[/tex] = [tex]3^{-1}[/tex]

Since the bases on both sides are equal, both 3, then equate exponents

4x = - 1 ( divide both sides by 4 )

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

When the order of the arrangements counts, a permutation is a numerical approach that establishes the total number of alternative arrangements in a collection.

The number of alternative configurations in a collection of things when the order of the selection is irrelevant is determined by combination.

Total number of marbles;

2 red marbles +  3 green ones + 1 lavender one + 2 yellows + 2 orange marbles.

⇒ 10

Selection is 4 out of 10

By combination,

10C₄ = (10×9×8×7)/(4×3×2)

10C₄ = 210

Hence "The number of possible sets of four marbles is 210".
