duke energy reported that the cost of electricity for an efficient home in a particular neighborhood of cincinnati, ohio, was $104 per month. a researcher believes that the cost of electricity for a comparable neighborhood in chicago, illinois, is higher. a sample of homes in this chicago neighborhood will be taken and the sample mean monthly cost of electricity will be used to test the following null and alternative hypotheses. h0: μ ≤ 104 ha: μ > 104 (a)assume the sample data lead to rejection of the null hypothesis. what would be your conclusion about the cost of electricity in the chicago neighborhood?

Answers

Answer 1

When the null hypothesis is rejected

The  conclusion is that there is enough evidence to support the claim of the researcher

When a type I error occurs. The consequences is that the conclusion that there is enough evidence to support the claim of the researcher is actually incorrect

When a type II error occurs. The consequences is  that the conclusion that there is enough evidence  to support the claim of the researcher is actually correct      

From the question we are told that,

Generally if the null hypothesis is rejected then the conclusion would be that there is enough evidence to support the claim of the researcher

Generally a Type I error is a an error that occurs when the null hypothesis is incorrectly rejected

So in the case of this question the consequence of making this type of error is that the conclusion that there is enough evidence to support the claim of the researcher is actually incorrect

Generally a Type II  error is an error that occurs when the null hypothesis is incorrectly not rejected

So in the case of this question the consequence of making this type of  

error is that the conclusion that there is enough evidence to support the claim of the researcher is actually correct.

Determine if the subset of R^2 consisting of vectors of the form [a b], where a + b = 1 is a subspace. Select true or false for each statement. This set is closed under scalar multiplications This set is a subspace This set is closed under vector addition The set contains the zero vector

Answers

This set is closed under scalar multiplications. Statement 1 is false.

This set is a subspace. This statement is also false because this set does not contain a zero vector so it is not a subspace.

This set is closed under vector addition. This is false. Because let v and w be two vectors such that v=(v1,v2); w=(w1,w2).

The set contains the zero vector. Statement 4 is false because the sum of two zero vectors cannot be equal to 1.

Since v and w are vectors satisfying the condition of space so v1+v2=1;w1+w2=1

Now we check whether v+w also belongs to the same space or not.

v+w=(v1,v2)+(w1,w2)=(v1+w1, v2+w2)

We shall check whether components of v+w also add up to 1.

v1+w1+v2+w2=v1+v2+w1+w2=1+1=2

So it means that this space is not closed under addition too.

Consider a vector v=(v1,v2) from the space.

Obviously v1+v2=1

Now let us take a constant 'c'  and consider the behavior of

cv=c(v1,v2)=(cv1,cv2)

Now we check whether components of this vector add up to 1.

cv1+cv2=c(v1+v2)=c\neq 1

which clearly indicates that vectors of this space are not closed under scalar multiplication.

Rejecting the null hypothesis when it is true is called a type I error, whereas not rejecting a false null hypothesis is called a u type II error.

A type I error occurs when a null hypothesis that is true in the population is rejected. A false positive is an example of this type of error. A type II error occurs if a null hypothesis that is actually false in the population is not rejected. This type of error is known as a false negative.A type II error differs from a type I error in that a type I error rejects the null hypothesis when it is true (i.e., a false positive).

Answers

The regular price is 275.82, according to given question.

What do you mean by regular price?

Regular price is the cost at which a provider continuously and actively sells goods or services to the general public over an extended period of time.

According to data in the given question,

We have the given information:

Sale discount 33% and the sale price 184.80.

Now, we will calculate the regular price:

Let Regular Price = x

33% Discount of x = 33/100 * x

33% Discount of x = 33x/100

Regular price - 33% Discount = Sale price

x-33x/100=184.80

(100x-33x)/100=184.80

67x/100=184.80

67x=18480

x=18480/67

Flip the equation

1/3a + 1/3b = a

Add (-1)/3a to both sides.

1/3a + 1/3b + −1/3a = a + −1/3a

1/3b = 2/3a

Divide both sides by 1/3

(1/3b)/(1/3) = (2/3a)/(1/3)

Answers

The value of the required mean of the sampling distribution of sample means is approx. 21 ounces when this process is in control.

Sample mean: The arithmetic mean of the values of the variables in the sample. If the samples are drawn from probability distributions with a common expected value, the sample mean is an estimate of that expected value.

Sample means for all days using formula,

Monday = (23+22+23+24)/4 = 23

Tuesday = (23+21+19+21)/4 = 21

Wednesday = (20+19+20+21)/4 = 20

Thursday = (18+19+20+19)/4 = 19

Friday = (18+20+22+20)/4 = 20

We have to calculate the mean of sampling distribution of sample means.

Mean of the sampling distribution of sample means = Sum of sample means of all days / Number of days

= (23+21+20+19+20)/5

= 20.6 = 21 ounces

Hence, the required mean is approx. 21 ounces.

Given f(x) = |x|, g(x)=|x+4|-2 is what kind of
transformation ?

Answers

The transformation of the function g ( x ) = | x + 4 | - 2 is

Horizontal shift : Left by 4 units

Vertical shift : Down by 2 units

How does the transformation of a function happen?

The transformation of a function may involve any change.

Usually, these can be shifted horizontally (by transforming inputs) or vertically (by transforming output), stretched (multiplying outputs or inputs)

If the original function is y = f(x), assuming the horizontal axis is the input axis and the vertical is for outputs, then:

Horizontal shift (also called phase shift):

Left shift by c units:  y=f(x+c) (same output, but c units earlier)

Right shift by c units:  y=f(x-c)(same output, but c units late)

Vertical shift:

Up by d units: y = f(x) + d

Down by d units: y = f(x) - d

Stretching shift:

Vertical stretch by a factor k: y = k × f(x)

Horizontal stretch by a factor k: y = f(x/k)

Given data ,

Let the parent function be f ( x )

The value of f ( x ) = | x |

Now , the transformation from the first function f ( x ) to g ( x ) is of the form

g ( x ) = | x + 4 | - 2

And , transformation is

y = a | x - h | + k

where the values of y , a , x , h and k are

The value of a = 1

The value of h = -4

The value of k = -2

Now , The Horizontal shift  is given by

Left shift by c units:  y=f(x+c) (same output, but c units earlier)

Right shift by c units:  y=f(x-c)(same output, but c units late)

So , h = -4 means left shift by 4 units

And , The Vertical shift is given by

Up by d units: y = f(x) + d

Down by d units: y = f(x) - d

So , k = -2 means down shift by 2 units

Hence , The transformation of the function g ( x ) = | x + 4 | - 2 is

Horizontal shift : Left by 4 units

Vertical shift : Down by 2 units

Answers

The equation of the circle on the y-axis is x² +(y-3)² = 36.

Here we have to find the equation of the circle

Data provided:

diameter(d) = 12 units

so radius(r) = 6 units

The center lies on the y-axis

The general equation of the circle:

(x-x1)² + (y - y1)² = r²

where (x1, y1) is the point on the circle.

So by putting x1 = 0 and y1 = 3 and r = 6 as the center lies of y-axis

x² + ( y - 3)² = 6²

x² + (y-3)² = 36

Answers

Using Chebychev's inequality the probability shows an outcome of the experiment between 13 and 31 is equal to 0.9506.

As given in the question,

Mean 'μ' = 22

Standard deviation 'σ' = 2

Apply Chebychev's inequality we have,

P ( | X - μ | ≤ kσ ) ≥ 1 - (1/k²)

Where 'k' is the constant value.

Estimation of  probability  with outcome lies between 13 and 31 using Chebychev's inequality is :

P ( 13 < X < 31 )

= P ( 13 -22 < X - μ < 31 - 22 )

= P ( -9 < X - μ < 9 )

= P ( | X - μ |≤ 9)

= P [ |X - μ | ≤ (9/2) ×2 ]

= P(  |X - μ | ≤ Kσ)

≥ 1 - ( 1/k²)

here k = 9/2

= 1 - (1 / (9/2)²)

= 1 - 4/81

= (81 -4) / 81

= 77/ 81

= 0.9506

Therefore, the probability for which outcome lies between 13 and 31 using Chebychev's inequality is equal to 0.9506.

The point  (6, -2) lie on the given line segment y= 1/2x-5.

What is point and line segment?

A point denotes exact location on any surface,

and the collection of points in the definite pattern is called line.

So, every line itself have infinite points.

Given point = (6, -2)

Hence, the given line = y= 1/2x-5

So, to find whether any point is on the line or not,

we have to put the point on line.

If it satisfies it will lie on line segment.

If not it will not pass through given line segment.

y= 1/2x-5

Putting x= 6 and y= -2

-2 = 3- 5

What is substitution method?

In order to solve a system of equations, the substitution method is typically used in mathematics. This approach involves first solving the equation for one variable, then changing the value of the variable in the second equation.

Suppose

'a' be the larger number and 'b' be the smaller number.

As the difference of two numbers is 6.

⇒ a - b = 6        ..(1)

As  two times the smaller is 3 more than the larger.

⇒ 2b = 3 + a        ..(2)

From equation (2),

a = 2b - 3

Substitute the value of 'a' in equation (1)

2b - 3 - b = 6

       b - 3 = 6

            b = 6 + 3

            b = 9

Substitute b = 9 in equation (1),

a - 9 = 6

    a = 6 + 9

    a = 15

Hence, the larger number is 15 and the smaller number is 9.

The system of equation that is used to determine the number of cans of soup purchased and the number of frozen dinners purchased is 300x+450(x+5)=6000mg.

What is meant by linear equation?

A linear equation can be generated by equating a linear polynomial over some field with zero coefficients. The values that, when substituted for the unknowns, make the equality true are the solutions of such an equation. The phrase linear equation is frequently used to refer to this specific scenario, in which the variable is appropriately referred to as the unknown.

Each solution in the case of two variables can be regarded as the Cartesian coordinates of a point on the Euclidean plane. A linear equation's solutions form a line in the Euclidean plane, and every line can be seen as a set.

Sodium contains in a can of soup is 300mg

Sodium contains in a can of frozen dinners is 450mg

Let the number of cans of soup purchased be x

Then, the number of frozen dinners purchased=x+5

Total sodium purchased=6000mg

So, 300x+450(x+5)=6000mg

Therefore, the system is 300x+450(x+5)=6000mg
