Answer:

a. The claim is that the amount of television watched per day last year by the average person differed from that in 2005.

b. The critical values are tc=-1.729 and tc=1.729.

The acceptance region is defined by -1.792<t<1.729. See the picture attached.

c. Test statistic t=0.18.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

d. At a significance level of 10%, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the amount of television watched per day last year by the average person differed from that in 2005.

e. The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (2.29, 7.23).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample of size n=20, which has mean of 4.76 and standard deviation of 5.28.

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n\,x_i\\\\\\M=\dfrac{1}{20}(1+4.6+5.4+. . .+6.2)\\\\\\M=\dfrac{95.2}{20}\\\\\\M=4.76\\\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{n-1}\sum_{i=1}^n\,(x_i-M)^2\\\\\\s=\dfrac{1}{19}((1-4.76)^2+(4.6-4.76)^2+(5.4-4.76)^2+. . . +(6.2-4.76)^2)\\\\\\s=\dfrac{100.29}{19}\\\\\\s=5.28\\\\\\[/tex]

a. This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the amount of television watched per day last year by the average person differed from that in 2005.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=4.55\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 4.55[/tex]

The significance level is 0.1.

The sample has a size n=20.

The sample mean is M=4.76.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=5.28.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{5.28}{\sqrt{20}}=1.181[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{4.76-4.55}{1.181}=\dfrac{0.21}{1.181}=0.18[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=20-1=19[/tex]

The critical value for a level of significance is α=0.10, a two tailed test and 19 degrees of freedom is tc=1.729.

The decision rule is that if the test statistic is above tc=1.729 or below tc=-1.729, the null hypothesis is rejected.

As the test statistic t=0.18 is within the critical values and lies in the acceptance region, the null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the amount of television watched per day last year by the average person differed from that in 2005.

We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=4.76.

The sample size is N=20.

The standard error is s_M=1.181

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are df=19.

The t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 19 degrees of freedom is t=2.093.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=2.093 \cdot 1.181=2.47[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 4.76-2.47=2.29\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 4.76+2.47=7.23[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (2.29, 7.23).

Answer:

n=N-1

Step-by-step explanation:

You can start by imagining this scenario on a small scale, say 5 squares.

Assuming it starts on the first square, the grasshopper can cover the full 5 squares in 2 ways; either it can jump one square at a time, or it can jump all the way to the end and then backtrack. If it jumps one square at a time, it will take 4 hops to cover all 5 squares. If it jumps two squares at a time and then backtracks, it will take 2 jumps to cover the full 5 squares and then 2 to cover the 2 it missed, which is also 4. It will always be one less than the total amount of squares, since it begins on the first square and must touch the rest exactly once. Therefore, the smallest amount n is N-1. Hope this helps!

The smallest value of n is N-1.

Square is a quadrilateral of equal length of sides and each angle of 90°.

Here given that there are 1×N squares i.e. N numbers of squares in one row.

The grasshopper can jump either one square or two squares to land on the next square.

Let's assume the scenario of 5 squares present in a row.

Let the grasshopper starts from the first square,

so the grasshopper can cover the full 5 squares in 2 methods;

one method is that it will jump one square at a time and reach at last square.

another method is it will jump all the squares to the finish and then backtrace.

If the grasshopper jumps one square at a time, it will take 4 jumps to cover all 5 squares.

Similarly, If a grasshopper jumps two squares at a time and then backtrace, it will take 2 jumps to reach the 5th square and then it will jump 1 square and then 2 squares to cover the 2 squares it missed, for which the number jump is also 4.

From the above it is clear that the number of jumps will always be one less than the total number of squares if the grasshopper begins from the first square and touch every square exactly once.

Therefore, the smallest value of n is N-1.

Answer:

6 years is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Principal, P =  £8000

Rate of interest, R = 3% compounding annually

Amount, A >  £9500

To find: Time, T = ?

We know that formula for Amount when interest in compounding:

[tex]A = P \times (1+\dfrac{R}{100})^T[/tex]

Putting all the values:

[tex]A = 8000 \times (1+\dfrac{3}{100})^T[/tex]

As per question statement, A >  £9500

[tex]\Rightarrow 8000 \times (1+\dfrac{3}{100})^T > 9500\\\Rightarrow (1+0.03)^T > \dfrac{9500}{8000}\\\Rightarrow (1.03)^T > 1.19[/tex]

Putting values of T, we find that at T = 6

[tex]1.03^6 = 1.194 > 1.19[/tex]

[tex]\therefore[/tex] Correct answer is T = 6 years

In 6 years, the amount will be more than £9500.

Answer:

18 pounds of cashews are needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

A manager bought 12 pounds of peanuts for $30.

Price of peanut per pound P = $30/12 = $2.5

Price of cashew per pound C = $5

Price of mixed nut per pound M = $4

Let x represent the proportion of peanut in the mixed nut.

The proportion of cashew will then be y = (1-x), so;

xP + (1-x)C = M

Substituting the values;

x(2.5) + (1-x)5 = 4

2.5x + 5 -5x = 4

2.5x - 5x = 4 -5

-2.5x = -1

x = 1/2.5 = 0.4

Proportion of cashew is;

y = 1-x = 1-0.4 = 0.6

For 12 pounds of peanut the corresponding pounds of cashew needed is;

A = 12/x × y

A = 12/0.4 × 0.6 = 18 pounds

18 pounds of cashews are needed.

Answer: 38 23/24

Step-by-step explanation:

Turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions

5 * 3 = 15

15 + 2 = 17

17/3

————————

6 * 8 = 48

48 + 7 = 55

55/8

————————

Now multiply the improper fractions

17/3 * 55/8

17 * 55 = 935

3 * 8 = 24

Divide 935 by 24 to get the answer as a mixed number.

935 / 24 = 38.95833

0.95833/1 = 23/24

935/24 as a mixed number is 38 23/24

72*10=720 so all the numbers would need to add to 720

the median is 74 so you need to have both 75 and 76 in the set

the mode is 68 so that need to be in at least twice

and the range is 21 so the largest number-21=smallest number

57, 68, 68, 68, 75, 76, 76, 77, 77, 78

A set of data that shows temperature highs for 10 days is 57, 68, 68, 68, 75, 76, 76, 77, 77, and 78.

Given that, create a set of data that shows temperature highs for 10 days.

Mean, median and mode are all measures of central tendency in statistics. In different ways, they each tell us what value in a data set is typical or representative of the data set.

The mean is the same as the average value of a data set and is found using a calculation. Add up all of the numbers and divide by the number of numbers in the data set.

The median is the central number of a data set. Arrange data points from smallest to largest and locate the central number. This is the median. If there are 2 numbers in the middle, the median is the average of those 2 numbers.

The mode is the number in a data set that occurs most frequently. Count how many times each number occurs in the data set. The mode is the number with the highest tally. It's ok if there is more than one mode. And if all numbers occur the same number of times there is no mode.

Now,

72×10=720 so all the numbers would need to add to 720.

The median is 74 so you need to have both 75 and 76 in the set.

The model is 68 so that needs to be in at least twice.

The range is 21 so the largest number-21=smallest number

57, 68, 68, 68, 75, 76, 76, 77, 77, 78

Therefore, a set of data that shows temperature highs for 10 days is 57, 68, 68, 68, 75, 76, 76, 77, 77, and 78.

Answer:

a) 22.66% of customers receive the service for​ half-price.

b) The guaranteed time​ limit should be of 25.2 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the zscore of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 17, \sigma = 4[/tex]

​(a) The automotive center guarantees customers that the service will take no longer than 20 minutes. If it does take​ longer, the customer will receive the service for​ half-price. What percent of customers receive the service for​ half-price?

Longer than 20 minutes is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 20. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{20 - 17}{4}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.75[/tex]

[tex]Z = 0.75[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.7734

1 - 0.7734 = 0.2266

22.66% of customers receive the service for​ half-price.

(b) If the automotive center does not want to give the discount to more than 2​% of its​ customers, how long should it make the guaranteed time​ limit?

The time limit should be the 100 - 2 = 98th percentile, which is X when Z has a pvalue of 0.98. So X when Z = 2.054.

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]2.054 = \frac{X - 17}{4}[/tex]

[tex]X - 17 = 4*2.054[/tex]

[tex]X = 25.2[/tex]

The guaranteed time​ limit should be of 25.2 minutes.

Answer:

The probability that one red chip was selected is 0.0053.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X be defined as the number of red chips selected.

It is provided that the selections of the n = 5 chips are done with replacement.

This implies that the probability of selecting a red chip remains same for each trial, i.e. p = 6/9 = 2/3.

The color of the chip selected at nth draw is independent of the other selections.

The random variable X thus follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 5 and p = 2/3.

The probability mass function of X is:

[tex]P(X=x)={5\choose x}\ (\frac{2}{3})^{x}\ (1-\frac{2}{3})^{5-x};\ x=0,1,2...[/tex]

Compute the probability that one red chip was selected as follows:

[tex]P(X=1)={5\choose 1}\ (\frac{2}{3})^{1}\ (1-\frac{2}{3})^{5-1}[/tex]

                [tex]=5\times\frac{2}{3}\times \frac{1}{625}\\\\=\farc{2}{375}\\\\=0.00533\\\\\approx 0.0053[/tex]

Thus, the probability that one red chip was selected is 0.0053.

Answer:

0.0412

Step-by-step explanation:

Total chips = 6 red + 3 black chips

Total chips=9

n=5

Probability of (Red chips ) can be determined by

=[tex]\frac{6}{9}[/tex]

=0.667

Now we used the binomial theorem

[tex]P(x) = C(n,x)*px*(1-p)(n-x).....Eq(1)\\ putting \ the \ given\ value \ in\ Eq(1)\ we \ get \\p(x=1) = C(5,1) * 0.667^1 * (1-0.667)^4[/tex]

Answer:

The  confidence interval is  [tex]64.86<\mu<67[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are given the following data

   The following heights are

66, 65, 67, 62, 62, 65, 61, 70, 66, 66, 71, 63, 69, 65, 71, 66, 66, 69, 68, 62, 65, 67, 65, 71, 65, 70, 62, 62, 63, 64, 67, 67      

 The  sample size is n  =32

  The confidence level is [tex]k = 95[/tex]% = 0.95

The mean is evaluated as

=>[tex]v= 8.567329[/tex]

=>   [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{8.567329}[/tex]

=>   [tex]\sigma = 2.927[/tex]

The level of significance is evaluated as

        [tex]\alpha = 1 - 0.95[/tex]

        [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

The degree of freedom is  evaluated as

    [tex]Df = n- 1 \equiv Df = 32 -1 = 31[/tex]

The critical values for the level of significance is obtained from the z -table as

      [tex]t_c = t_{\alpha/2 } , Df = t _{0.05/2}, 31 =\pm 1.96[/tex]

The confidence interval is evaluated as

       [tex]\mu = \= x \pm t_c * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]\mu =65.875 \pm 1.96* \frac{2.927}{\sqrt{32} }[/tex]

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval for the mean production rate fro the new method is (75.9, 84.1).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to calculate a 90% confidence interval for the mean.

The population standard deviation is not known, so we have to estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-students distribution to calculate the critical value.

The sample mean is M=80.

The sample size is N=18.

When σ is not known, s divided by the square root of N is used as an estimate of σM:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{N}}=\dfrac{10}{\sqrt{18}}=\dfrac{10}{4.24}=2.36[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=18-1=17[/tex]

The t-value for a 90% confidence interval and 17 degrees of freedom is t=1.74.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

[tex]MOE=t\cdot s_M=1.74 \cdot 2.36=4.1[/tex]

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

[tex]LL=M-t \cdot s_M = 80-4.1=75.9\\\\UL=M+t \cdot s_M = 80+4.1=84.1[/tex]

His overall final​ score is 80.1.

His letter grade is a B.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find his grade, we multiply each grade by it's weight.

Grades and weights:

His midterm score is 64​. The midterm counts 20% = 0.2.

His project score is 80​. The project score counts 20% = 0.2.

His homework score is 94. The homework score counts 30%.

His final exam score is 77. It counts 30%.

What is his overall final​ score?

64*0.2 + 80*0.2 + 94*0.3 + 77*0.3 = 80.1

His overall final​ score is 80.1.

What letter grade did he earn​ (A, B,​ C, D, or​ F)?

At least 80 but less than 90 is a​ B. He scored 80.1, so his letter grade is a B.

Answer:

33/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first number be x, and the second number be y.

x - y = 4

x + y = -7

Solve for x in the first equation.

x - y = 4

x = 4 + y

Put x as (4 + y) in the second equation and solve for y.

4 + y + y = -7

4 + 2y = -7

2y = -7 - 4

2y = -11

y = -11/2

Put y as -11/2 in the first equation and solve for x.

x - y = 4

x - (-11/2) = 4

x + 11/2 = 4

x = 4 - 11/2

x = -3/2

Their product is:

-11/2 × -3/2

33/4

Answer: 33/4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use system of equations to find the missing numbers. Once we have the missing numbers, we can find the product. Let's use x and y for the missing numbers.

Equation 1

x-y=4

This equation comes from the difference of the 2 numbers being 4.

Equation 2

x+y=-7

This equation comes from the sum of the 2 numbers is -7.

We can use elimination to solve for y. We would subtract the 2 equations together so that x can cancel out.

-2y=11

y=-11/2

Now that we know y, we can substitute it into the equations above to find x.

x-(-11/2)=4

x+11/2=4

x=-3/2

With the x and y values, we can find the product.

(-3/2)*(-11/2)=33/4

[tex]7^2=7^2+9^2-2\left(7\right)\left(9\right)cos\left(x\right)\\\\cos(x)=\frac{7^2+9^2-7^2}{2\cdot \:7\cdot \:9}\\\\x\approx 50^\circ[/tex]

There are multiple concepts to solve this problem. This is one of the concept used in high school. Other concept to solve this problem is to use the concept of isosceles triangle. An isosceles triangle is a triangle with (at least) two equal sides. The angles shared by the two equal sides are also equal. So that the sum of all the three angles will add up to 180.

[tex]x+x+80=180\\\\2x=100\\\\x=50^{\circ}[/tex]

Answer:

6 pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

At least 10 and fewer than 20 makes it 10-19

So,

10-19 => 6 pizzas

6 pizzas have at least 10 pieces of pepperoni but fewer than 20 pieces of pepperoni.

Answer: 5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonals of a rhombus bisect each other in half

PO = OR = 4 cm

So. PR = 8 cm

Similarly,

SO = OQ = 3 cm

So, SQ = 6 cm

To measure side, formula is

a = √p^2 + q^2 / 2

a = √6^2 + 8^2 / 2

a = √36+64 / 2

a = √100 / 2

a = 10/2 = 5 cm

Answer:

Area = 108 cm^2

Perimeter = 44 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Area, -->

24 + 30 + 24 + 30 -->

24(2) + 30(2)

48 + 60 = 108 cm^2

108 = area

10 + 12 + 10 + 12, -->

10(2) + 12(2) = 44 cm

44 = perim.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Draw the diagram.

This time put in the only one line for the height. That is only 1 height is 8 cm. That's it.

The base is 6 +  6 = 12 cm.

The slanted line is 10 cm

That's all your diagram should show. It is much clearer without all the clutter.

Now you are ready to do the calculations.

Area

The Area = the base * height.

base = 12

height = 8

Area = 12 * 8 = 96

Perimeter.

In a parallelagram the opposite sides are equal to one another.

One set of sides = 10 + 10 = 20

The other set = 12 + 12 = 24

Both sets = 20 + 24

Both sets = 44

Answer

Area = 96

Perimeter = 44

Answer:

Having 3.2 liters of water for 3 hours of hiking

Step-by-step explanation:

If x represents the number of hours and y represents the number of liters of water, then we can plug the possible solutions into our inequality to see which solution(s) work.

The first option is having 3 liters of water for 3.5 hours of hiking. We will plug 3 in for y and 3.5 in for x:

y > 0.6x + 1.25

3 > 0.6(3.5) + 1.25

3 > 3.35

But since 3 is not greater than 3.35, this does not work.

The next option is having 2 liters of water for 2.5 hours of hiking:

2 > 0.6(2.5) + 1.25

2 > 2.75

But 2 is not greater than 2.75, so this does not work.

Option c is having 2.3 liters of water for 2 hours of hiking:

2.3 > 0.6(2) + 1.25

2.3 > 2.45

Since 2.3 is not greater than 2.45, this solution does not work.

The last option is having 3.2 liters of water for 3 hours of hiking:

3.2 > 0.6(3) + 1.25

3.2 > 3.05

3.2 IS greater than 3.05, so this solution works!
