Teaching descriptive statistics. A study compared five different methods for teaching descriptive statistics. The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures, computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 45 students were randomly assigned, 9 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam.
a. What are the hypotheses for evaluating if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods?
b. What are the degrees of freedom associated with the F-test for evaluating these hypotheses?
c. Suppose the p-value for this test is 0.0168. What is the conclusion?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The hypotheses are:

Null hypothesis: the average test scores are the same for the different teaching methods.

Alternative hypothesis: the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods.

b. To determine the degree of freedom for the F test: we must find two sources of variation such that we have two variances. The two sources of variation are: Factor (between groups) and the error (within groups) and add this up. Or use (N - 1). N is number in sample

c. With a p value of of 0.0168 and using a standard significance level of 0.05, we will reject the null hypothesis as 0.0168 is less than 0.05 and conclude that the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods.

⅝ of a school's population are girls. There are 129 boys. If each classroom can hold 25 students. How many classroom does the school have ?​

Answers

Answer:

AT least 14 classrooms to hold the total number of students

Step-by-step explanation:

Since  we don't know the numer of girls in the school, let's call it "x".

What we know is that the number of girls plus the number of boys gives the total number of students. This is:

x + 129 = Total number of students

Now, since 5/8 of the total number of students are girls, and understanding that 5/8 = 0.625 in decimal form, then we write the equation that states:

"5/8 of the school's population are girls" as:

0.625 (x + 129) = x

then we solve for "x":

0.625 x + 0.625 * 129 = x

0.625 * 129 = x - 0.625 x

80.625 = x (1 - 0.625)

80.625 = 0.375 x

x = 80.625/0.375

x = 215

So now we know that the total number of students is: 215 + 129 = 344

and if each classroom can hold 25 students, the number of classroom needed for 344 students is:

344/25 = 13.76

so at least 14 classrooms to hold all those students

Any help would be appreciated

Write the rectangular equation (x+5) 2 + y 2 = 25 in polar form.

Answers

Answer:

r = -10*cos(t)

Step-by-step explanation:

To write the rectangular equation in polar form we need to replace x and y by:

[tex]x=r*cos(t)\\y=r*sin(t)[/tex]

Replacing on the original equation, we get:

[tex](x+5)^2+y^2=25\\x^2+10x+25+y^2=25\\(r*cos(t))^2+10*(r*cos(t))+25+(r*sin(t))^2=25[/tex]

Using the identity [tex]sin^2(t)+cos^2(t)=1[/tex] and solving for r, we get that the polar form of the equation is:

[tex](r*cos(t))^2+10*(r*cos(t))+25+(r*sin(t))^2=25\\r^2cos^2(t)+10rcos(t)+r^2sin^2(t)=0\\r^2cos^2(t)+r^2sin^2(t)=-10rcos(t)\\r^2(cos^2(t)+sin^2(t))=-10rcos(t)\\r^2=-10rcos(t)\\\\r=-10cos(t)[/tex]

a. Represent the area (in square cm) of a circle whose radius is 4 cm.
b. Represent how much the area (in square cm) of a circle increases by when its radius increases from 10.9 to 10.91 cm.

Answers

Answer:

(a)f(4) square cm.

(b)f(10.91)-f(10.9) Square centimeter.

Step-by-step explanation:

f(r)=the area of a circle (in square cm) that has a radius of r cm.

(a)Area (in square cm) of a circle whose radius is 4 cm.

Since r=4cm

Area of the circle = f(4) square cm.

(b) When the radius of the increases from 10.9 to 10.91 cm.

Area of the circle with a radius of 10.91 = f(10.91) square cm.Area of the circle with a radius of 10.9 = f(10.9) square cm.

Change in the Area = f(10.91)-f(10.9) Square centimeter.

A lake has a large population of fish. On average, there are 2,400 fish in the lake, but this number can vary by as much as 155. What is the maximum number of fish in the lake? What is the minimum number of fish in the lake?

Answers

Answer:

Minimum population of fish in lake = 2400 - 155 = 2245

Maximum population of fish in lake = 2400 + 155 = 2555

Step-by-step explanation:

population of fish in lake = 2400

Variation of fish = 155

it means that while current population of fish is 2400, the number can increase or decrease by maximum upto 155.

For example

for increase

population of fish can 2400 + 2, 2400 + 70, 2400 + 130 etc

but it cannot be beyond 2400 + 155.

It cannot be 2400 + 156

similarly for decrease

population of fish can 2400 - 3, 2400 - 95, 2400 - 144 etc

but it cannot be less that 2400 - 155.

It cannot be 2400 - 156

Hence population can fish in lake can be between 2400 - 155 and 2400 + 155

minimum population of fish in lake = 2400 - 155 = 2245

maximum population of fish in lake = 2400 + 155 = 2555

According to Brad, consumers claim to prefer the brand-name products better than the generics, but they can't even tell which is which. To test his theory, Brad gives each of 199 consumers two potato chips - one generic, and one brand-name - then asks them which one is the brand-name chip. 92 of the subjects correctly identified the brand-name chip.

Required:
a. At the 0.01 level of significance, is this significantly greater than the 50% that could be expected simply by chance?
b. Find the test statistic value.

Answers

Answer:

a. There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion that correctly identifies the chip is significantly smaller than 50%.

b. Test statistic z=-1.001

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for a proportion.

The claim is that the proportion that correctly identifies the chip is significantly smaller than 50%.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.5\\\\H_a:\pi<0.5[/tex]

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=199.

The sample proportion is p=0.462.

[tex]p=X/n=92/199=0.462[/tex]

The standard error of the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.5*0.5}{199}}\\\\\\ \sigma_p=\sqrt{0.001256}=0.035[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the z-statistic as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi+0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.462-0.5+0.5/199}{0.035}=\dfrac{-0.035}{0.035}=-1.001[/tex]

This test is a left-tailed test, so the P-value for this test is calculated as:

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(z<-1.001)=0.16[/tex]

As the P-value (0.16) is greater than the significance level (0.01), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion that correctly identifies the chip is significantly smaller than 50%.

1. A door of a lecture hall is in a parabolic shape. The door is 56 inches across at the bottom of the door and parallel to the floor and 32 inches high. Sketch and find the equation describing the shape of the door. If you are 22 inches tall, how far must you stand from the edge of the door to keep from hitting your head

Answers

Answer:

See below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the equation as

y = a(x - 28)(x + 28)   as -28 and 28  ( +/- 1/2 * 56) are the zeros of the equation

y has coordinates (0, 32) at the top of the parabola so

32 = a(0 - 28)(0 + 28)

32 = a * (-28*28)

32 = -784 a

a = 32 / -784

a = -0.04082

So the equation is y = -0.04082(x - 28)(x + 28)

y = -0.04082x^2 + 32

The second part  is found by first finding the value of x corresponding to  y = 22

22 = -0.04082x^2 + 32

-0.04082x^2 = -10

x^2 = 245

x = 15.7 inches.

This is the distance from the centre of the door:

The distance from the edge = 28 - 15.7

= 12,3 inches.

The management of a chain of frozen yogurt stores believes that t days after the end of an advertising campaign, the rate at which the volume V (in dollars) of sales is changing is approximated by V ' ( t ) = − 26400 e − 0.49 t . On the day the advertising campaign ends ( t = 0 ), the sales volume is $ 170 , 000 . Find both V ' ( 6 ) and its integral V ( 6 ) . Round your answers to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the rate at which the volume V (in dollars) of sales is changing is approximated by the equation

V ' ( t ) = − 26400 e^− 0.49 t .

t = time (in days)

.v'(6) can be derived by simply substituting t = 6 into the modelled equation as shown:

V'(6) = − 26400 e− 0.49 (6)

V'(6) = -26400e-2.94

V'(6) = -26400×-0.2217

V'(6) = $5852.88

V'(6) = $5,853 to nearest dollars

V'(6) = 585300cents to nearest cent

To get v(6), we need to get v(t) first by integrating the given function as shown:

V(t) = ∫−26400 e− 0.49 t dt

V(t) = -26,400e-0.49t/-0.49

V(t) = 53,877.55e-0.49t + C.

When t = 0, V(t) = $170,000

170,000 = 53,877.55e-0 +C

170000 = 53,877.55(2.7183)+C

170,000 = 146,454.37+C

C = 170,000-146,454.37

C = 23545.64

V(6) = 53,877.55e-0.49(6)+ 23545.64

V(6) = -11,945.63+23545.64

V(6) = $11,600 (to the nearest dollars)

Since $1 = 100cents

$11,600 = 1,160,000cents

In a certain community, 8% of all people above 50 years of age have diabetes. A health service in this community correctly diagnoses 95% of all person with diabetes as having the disease, and incorrectly diagnoses 10% of all person without diabetes as having the disease. Find the probability that a person randomly selected from among all people of age above 50 and diagnosed by the health service as having diabetes actually has the disease.

Answer:

P(has diabetes | positive) = 0.442

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of having diabetes and being positive is;

P(positive & has diabetes) = P(has diabetes) × P(positive | has diabetes)

We are told 8% or 0.08 have diabetes and there's a correct diagnosis of 95% of all the persons with diabetes having the disease.

Thus;

P(positive & has diabetes) = 0.08 × 0.95 = 0.076

P(negative & has diabetes) = P(has diabetes) × (1 –P(positive | has diabetes)) = 0.08 × (1 - 0.95)

P(negative & has diabetes) = 0.004

P(positive & no diabetes) = P(no diabetes) × P(positive | no diabetes)

We are told that there is an incorrect diagnoses of 10% of all persons without diabetes as having the disease

Thus;

P(positive & no diabetes) = 0.92 × 0.1 = 0.092

P(negative &no diabetes) =P(no diabetes) × (1 –P(positive | no diabetes)) = 0.92 × (1 - 0.1)

P(negative &no diabetes) = 0.828

Probability that a person selected having diabetes actually has the disease is;

P(has diabetes | positive) =P(positive & has diabetes) / P(positive)

P(positive) = 0.08 + P(positive & no diabetes)

P(positive) = 0.08 + 0.092 = 0.172

P(has diabetes | positive) = 0.076/0.172 = 0.442

The probability are "0.168 and 0.452".

Using formula:

[tex]P(\text{diabetes diagnosis})\\[/tex]:

[tex]=\text{P(having diabetes and have been diagnosed with it)}\\ + \text{P(not have diabetes and yet be diagnosed with diabetes)}[/tex]

[tex]=0.08 \times 0.95+(1-0.08) \times 0.10 \\\\=0.08 \times 0.95+0.92 \times 0.10 \\\\=0.076+0.092\\\\=0.168[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

225º or 3.926991 radians

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the complete circle would be π×radius²: 3.14×8²=200.96

The fraction of the circle that is still left will be a direct ratio of the angle of the sector of the circle.

[tex]\frac{125.6}{200.96}[/tex]=.625. This is the ratio of the circe that is in the sector. In order to find the measure we must multiply it by either the number of degrees in the circle or by the number of radians in the circle (depending on the form in which you want your answer).

There are 360º in a circle, so .625×360=225 meaning that the measure of the angle of the sector is 225º.

We can do the same thing for radians, if necessary. There are 2π radians in a circle, so .625×2π=3.926991 radians.

Keith Rollag (2007) noticed that coworkers evaluate and treat "new" employees differently from other staff members. He was interested in how long a new employee is considered "new" in an organization. He surveyed four organizations ranging in size from 34 to 89 employees. He found that the "new" employee status was mostly reserved for the 30% of employees in the organization with the lowest tenure.
A) In this study, what was the real range of employees hired by each organization surveyed?
B) What was the cumulative percent of "new" employees with the lowest tenure?

Answers

Answer:

a) Real range of employees hired by each organization surveyed = 56

b) The cumulative percent of "new" employees with the lowest tenure =        30%

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Note: To get the real range of employees hired by each organization, you would do a head count from 34 to 89 employees. This means that this can be done mathematically by finding the difference between 34 and 89 and add the 1 to ensure that "34" is included.

Real range of employees hired by each organization surveyed = (89 - 34) + 1

Real range of employees hired by each organization surveyed = 56

b) It is clearly stated in the question that  the "new" employee status was mostly reserved for the 30% of employees in the organization with the lowest tenure.

Therefore, the cumulative percent of "new" employees with the lowest tenure = 30%

What is the solution of √1-3x = x+3 ?


Answers

Answer:

{-1, -8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Please enclose "1 - 3x" inside parentheses so the reader will know that you want the square root of all of "1 - 3x".

Squaring both sides of the given equation, we get:

1 - 3x = x^2 + 6x + 9, or  x^2 + 6x + 8 + 3x, or

x^2 + 9x + 8 = 0.  Factoring, we get:  (x + 8)(x + 1) = 0, so that the solutions are {-1, -8}.

Answer:

I hope the given equation is :

{-1, -8}

First step to solve this equation to remove square root from the left side. So, take square on each sides of the equation. Therefore,

1 - 3x = (x + 3)²

1 - 3x = (x + 3)*(x + 3) Since a² = a * a

1 - 3x = x² + 3x + 3x + 3² By multiplication.

1 - 3x = x² + 6x + 9 Combine the like terms.

x² + 6x + 9 - 1 + 3x = 0 Subtract 1 and add 3x from each sides of equation

x² + 9x + 8 = 0 Combine the like terms.

Next step is to factor the trinomial to solve the above equation for x.

For that break downn the constant 8 into two multiples so that the addition of the multiples will result the coefficient of x = 9.

So, 8 = 1 * 8

Addition of 1 and 8 will give 9. So, next step is to replace 9x with 1x + 8x. So,

x² + 1x + 8x + 8 = 0

(x² + 1x) + (8x + 8) = 0 Group the terms.

x ( x + 1) + 8 (x + 1 ) = 0 Take out the common factor from each group.

(x +1 ) ( x + 8 ) = 0 Take out the common factor (x + 1).

So, x + 1 = 0 and x + 8 = 0 Set up each factor equal to 0.

Hence, x = -1 and - 8.

Next step is to plug in -1 and -8 in the original equation to cross check the solutions.

For x = -1,

Simplify each sides separately.

2 = 2

2 = 2 is correct. So, x = -1 satisfy the equation.

Hence, x = -1 is the real solution of the given equation.

Similarly let's plug in x = -8 now. So,

Simplify each sides separately.

5 = 2

5 = 2 is not true. So, x = -8 is the extraneous solution.

Therefore, the only solution is x = -1.

Hence, the correct choice is C.

Hope this helps you!

What is the answer? x^2-y^2=55

Answers

Answer:

To solve for x we can write:

x² - y² = 55

x² = y² + 55

x = ±√(y² + 55)

To solve for y:

x² - y² = 55

y² = x² - 55

y = ±√(x² - 55)

Engineers want to design passenger seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 95 percent of adult men. Assume that adult men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 inches and a standard deviation of 1.1 inches. Find the 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men. Round your answer to one decimal place; add a trailing zero as needed. The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is [HipBreadth] inches.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=1.64<\frac{a-14.4}{1.1}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=14.4 +1.64*1.1=16.204[/tex]

The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is 16.2 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable that represent the hips breadths of a population, and for this case we know the distribution for X is given by:

[tex]X \sim N(14.4,1.1)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=14.4[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=1.1[/tex]

For this part we want to find a value a, such that we satisfy this condition:

[tex]P(X>a)=0.05[/tex]   (a)

[tex]P(X<a)=0.95[/tex]   (b)

We can find a quantile in the normal standard distribution who accumulates 0.95 of the area on the left and 0.05 of the area on the right it's z=1.64

Using this value we can set up the following equation:

[tex]P(X<a)=P(\frac{X-\mu}{\sigma}<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.95[/tex]  

[tex]P(z<\frac{a-\mu}{\sigma})=0.95[/tex]

And we have:

[tex]z=1.64<\frac{a-14.4}{1.1}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=14.4 +1.64*1.1=16.204[/tex]

The 95th percentile of the hip breadth of adult men is 16.2 inches.

4. The dimensions of a triangular pyramid are shown below. The height of

the pyramid is 6 inches. What is the volume in cubic inches?

Answers

Answer:

5in³

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is in complete. Here is the complete question.

"The dimensions of a triangular pyramid are shown below. The height of

the pyramid is 6 inches. What is the volume in cubic inches?

Base of triangle = 1in

height of triangle = 5in"

Given the dimension of the triangular base of base 1 inch and height 5inches with the height of the pyramid to be 6inches, the volume of the triangular pyramid is expressed as [tex]V = \frac{1}{3}BH[/tex] where;\

B = Base area

H = Height of the pyramid

Base area  B = area of the triangular base = [tex]\frac{1}{2}bh[/tex]

b = base of the triangle

h = height of the triangle

B = [tex]\frac{1}{2} * 5 * 1\\[/tex]

[tex]B = 2.5in^{2}[/tex]

Since H = 6inches

Volume of the triangular pyramid = [tex]\frac{1}{3} * 2.5 * 6\\[/tex]

[tex]V = 2.5*2\\V =5in^{3}[/tex]

If an image of a triangle is congruent to the pre-image, what is the scale factor of the dilation?
0.1
1/2
1
10

Answers

The scale factor of the dilation is 1 because the image and pre-image share the SAME everything (lengths, area, etc.). So if you multiply one of the image’s length by any number other than one, the pre-image will change.
