The median number of part-time employees at fast-food restaurants in a particular city was known to be 18 last year. City officials think the use of part-time employees may be increasing. A sample of nine fast-food restaurants showed that seven restaurants were employing more than 18 part-time employees, one restaurant was employing exactly 18 part-time employees, and one restaurant was employing fewer than 18 part-time employees. Can it be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

It can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased hence we will reject the null hypothesis ( H0 : p = 0.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Test using  α = 0.5 to determine whether the median number of part-time employees has increased

number of restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees = 7  ( + sign )

number of restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees = 1 ( - sign )

number of restaurants with exactly 18 part-time employees = 1

first step : ( state the null and alternate hypothesis )

Null hypothesis : ( H0) : median ≤ 18

Alternate hypothesis : ( Ha ) : median ≥ 18

The size of the sample ( n ) can be considered to be 8 because

number of restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees = 7  ( + sign )

number of restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees = 1 ( - sign )

Hence the actual hypothesis that should be tested will be :

H0 : p = 0.5

Ha : p ≠ 0.5

Next apply the binomial distribution to determine the number of + signs

= nP = 8 ( 0.5 ) = 4 + signs ( right tailed test i.e. upper tail of the binomial distribution )

determine the P ( ≥ 7 ) + signs in order to obtain the p-value of this right tailed test ( using the binomial probability table )

P ( ≥ 7 )+ signs  = p(7) +signs  + p(8)+signs

                         = 0.0313 + 0.0039 = 0.0352

Hence the P-value = 0.0352  is < 0.05  hence we will reject the Null hypothesis ( H0 : p = 0.5 )

hence It can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

Answer 2

The true statement is that, the median number of part-time employees has increased

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{n_1 = +7}[/tex] ---- restaurants with more than 18 part-time employees[tex]\mathbf{n_2 = -1}[/tex] ---- restaurants with less than 18 part-time employees [tex]\mathbf{n_3 = 1}[/tex] ---- restaurants with exactly 18 part-time employees

Using a 0.5 test of significance, the null and the alternate hypotheses are:

Null hypothesis : [tex]\mathbf{H_0 : p= 0.5}[/tex]Alternate hypothesis : [tex]\mathbf{H_a : p \ne 0.5}[/tex]

The sample size (n) is calculated using

[tex]\mathbf{n =n_1 -n_3}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{n =7 --1}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{n =8}[/tex]

The mean of the distribution is:

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = np}[/tex]

This gives

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 8 \times 0.5}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\bar x = 4}[/tex]

Using the right tailed test, we calculate the probability that a restaurant has more than 7 part-time employees.

This is calculated as:

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = P(x = 7+) + P(x = 8+)}[/tex]

Using the binomial probability table, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = 0.0313 + 0.0039 }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{P(x \ge 7+) = 0.0352}[/tex]

By comparison,

When the p-value is less than the level of significance, then we will reject the Null hypothesis

Hence, it can be concluded that the median number of part-time employees has increased

Consider the graph of the function
f(x)=2^x



Answers

Answer:

D. The y-intercept is at (0,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 2^x and g(x)=2f(x) so g(x) = 2(2)^x

In the exponential function ab^x a is the y-intercept (in this case a is 2)

Y-intercept of g(x) at (0,2) which is correct option(D).

What is graph?

A graph can be defined as a pictorial representation or a diagram that represents data or values.

f(x) = 2ˣ

g(x) = 2f(x) = 2(2ˣ)

The y-intercept of g(x) = 2f(x),

Substitute in 0 for x and solve for y

y=2(2⁰)

Anything raised to 0 is 1 .

y=2

Y-intercept in point form.

Hence, y-intercept of g(x) : (0,2)

A local ice cream store wanted to see if there was a linear relationship between average temperature on any given day and their ice cream sales. After recording sales and temperatures for 15 randomly selected days they calculated b1 to be equal to 1.24 and a standard error of b1 to be equal to 2.59. Using the appropriate equation, calculate the test statistic is to test if there is a linear relationship between these two variables. Round to two decimal places as necessary. 0.48.

Answers

Answer:

the test statistic is  0.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

sample size n = 15

slope of regression b1 = 1.24

Standard of error SE = 2.59

now,

The hypothesis;

Null hypothesis H₀ : B1 = 0

Alternative hypothesis H₁ : B1 ≠ 0

If there is significant relation between variable x and dependent variable y, the slope will not be equal to zero.

Test Statistic

t = b1 / S.E

we substitute

t = 1.24 / 2.59

t = 0.4787 ≈ 0.48

the test statistic is  0.48

Answer:

y = 16.3

Step-by-step explanation:

We would apply the formula for altitude of a right triangle which is given as:

h = √(xy)

Where,

h = 14

x = 12

y = y = ?

Plug in the values

14 = √(12*y)

14² = (√(12*y) (squaring both sides)

196 = 12*y

196/12 = 12y/12 (division property of equality)

16.3 = y (nearest tenth)

y = 16.3

10. If possible, determine whether or not triangles LQP and LMN

PLEASE HELP!!

Answers

Answer:

They are similar

Step-by-step explanation:

If two triangles are similar, the ratio of their corresponding side lengths must be equal to each other.

This means that for ∆LQP and ∆LMN to be considered similar to each other, therefore:

LM/LQ = LN/LP

LM = 100

LQ = 12

LN = 75

LP = 9

LM/LQ = 100/12 = 25/3

LN/LP = 75/9 = 25/3

LM/LQ = LN/LP = 25/3, therefore ∆LQP and ∆LMN are similar to each other because the ratio of their corresponding side lengths are the same.

your second payment is 25% of 200 which is 50 because 200*.25=50
