Answer:
Left tailed test
Step-by-step explanation:
A two tailed test usually determined by the alternative hypothesis involves both the less than and the greater than option.
A left tailed test corresponds to an alternative hypothesis having just one of either options (less than and the greater than option) usually the less than option.
A right tailed test corresponds to an alternative hypothesis having just one of either options (less than and the greater than option) usually the greatest than option.
In this experiment, the null hypothesis is the average amount of time that spend watching television each week is ---
He introduces a campaign to encourage the students to watch less television and then performs a hypothesis test to determine whether the average amount of time spent watching television per week has decreased. The alternative hypothesis would be: u < ---. This means that this test is a left tailed test.
The number of degrees of freedom for the appropriate chi-square distribution in a test of independence is a. k – 1. b. A chi-square distribution is not used. c. number of rows minus 1 times number of columns minus 1. d. n – 1.
Answer:
Option C
Step-by-step explanation:
The chi square test of independence is used to determine if there is a significant association between two categorical variables from a population.
It tests the claim that the row and column variables are independent of each other.
The degrees of freedom for the chi-square are calculated using the following formula: df = (r-1) (c-1) where r is the number of rows and c is the number of columns.
Tommy has "n" friends and he wants to give each friend 5 pencils. Write an expression to show how many pencils pencils Tommy will share.
Answer:
5n
Step-by-step explanation:
Think about it:
If Tommy has 4 friends (n = 4), then he will have to give 5 pencils to each person. The total number of pencils is 5 * n or 5 * 4 = 20.
Similarly, if Tommy has 0 friends (I can relate), then he will have to give 5 pencils to each of his imaginary friends. The total number of pencils he has to give out to his real friends is 5 * n or 5 * 0 = 0.
Would this be correct even though I didn’t use the chain rule to solve?
Answer:
Dy/Dx=1/√ (2x+3)
Yeah it's correct
Step-by-step explanation:
Applying differential by chain differentiation method.
The differential of y = √(2x+3) with respect to x
y = √(2x+3)
Let y = √u
Y = u^½
U = 2x +3
The formula for chain differentiation is
Dy/Dx = Dy/Du *Du/Dx
So
Dy/Dx = Dy/Du *Du/Dx
Dy/Du= 1/2u^-½
Du/Dx = 2
Dy/Dx =( 1/2u^-½)2
Dy/Dx= u^-½
Dy/Dx=1/√ u
But u = 2x+3
Dy/Dx=1/√ (2x+3)

Answer:
X = 50
Step-by-step explanation:
(5x - 100) + (x - 20) = 180 (sum of angle on a straight line is = 180)
5x + x -100 -120 = 180
6x - 120 = 180
6x = 180 + 120
6x = 300
x = 300/6
x = 50
For y
3y + y + 140 = 180
4y = 180 -140
4y = 40
y = 40/4
y = 10

Determine what type of study is described. Explain. Researchers wanted to determine whether there was an association between high blood pressure and the suppression of emotions. The researchers looked at 1800 adults enrolled in a Health Initiative Observational Study. Each person was interviewed and asked about their response to emotions. In particular they were asked whether their tendency was to express or to hold in anger and other emotions. The degree of suppression of emotions was rated on a scale of 1 to 10. Each person's blood pressure was also measured. The researchers analyzed the results to determine whether there was an association between high blood pressure and the suppression of emotions.
Answer:
Experimental Study
Step-by-step explanation:
In an experimental study, the researchers involve always produce and intervention (in this case they were asked whether their tendency was to express or to hold in anger and other emotions. The degree of suppression of emotions was rated on a scale of 1 to 10) and study the effects taking measurements.
These studies are usually randomized ie subjects are group by chance.
As opposed to observation studies, where the researchers only measures what was observed, seen or hear without any intervention on their parts.
For the following data at the near-ground level, which location will residents likely see dew on their lawns in the morning? Group of answer choices City C: Dew Point Temperature = 25°F, expected low Temperature = 20°F City A: Dew Point Temperature = 65°F, expected low Temperature = 60°F City B: Dew Point Temperature = 45°F, expected low Temperature = 50°F
Answer: CITY B: Dew Point Temperature = 45°F, expected low Temperature = 50°F
Step-by-step explanation:
CITY C: Dew Point Temperature = 25°F, expected low Temperature = 20°F
CITY A: Dew Point Temperature = 65°F, expected low Temperature = 60°F
CITY B: Dew Point Temperature = 45°F, expected low Temperature = 50°F
city B is going to have dew on their lawn in the morning as the dew point temperature is less than the lowest temperature.
When surface temperature drops, eventually reaching the dew point, atmospheric water vapor condenses to form small droplets on the surface. Thus dew will be formed as the conditions are suitable only for city B.
If George is 33 1/3% richer than Pete, than Pete is what percent poorer than George?
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
George is 33[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]% ([tex]\frac{100}{3}[/tex]%) richer than Pete. Let Pete's percentage of wealth be 100%.
Thus George percentage of wealth = 100% + [tex]\frac{100}{3}[/tex]%
= [tex]\frac{400}{3}[/tex]%
= 133[tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex]%
Pete's percent poorer than George can be determined by;
= [tex](\frac{100}{3})[/tex] ÷ [tex](\frac{400}{3} )[/tex] × 100
= [tex](\frac{100}{3})[/tex] × [tex]\frac{3}{400}[/tex] ×100
= 0.25 × 100
= 25%
Pete is 25% poorer than George.

Answer:
B. 15/17
Step-by-step explanation:
(see attached graphic for reference)
Because we have a right triangle (i.e one of the internal angles is 90 degrees), we can use trigonometry to solve
from the diagram, we can see that
cos 28° = adjacent length / hypotenuse
we can also see that the length adjacent to 28° = 15 units and the hypotenuse is 17 units,
hence, substituting these values into the equation:
cos 28° = 15 / 17 (answer)

An integer is 3 less than 5 times another. If the product of the two integers is 36, then find the integers.
Answer:
3, 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Et x and y be the required integers.
Case 1: x = 5y - 3...(1)
Case 2: xy = 36
Hence, (5y - 3)*y = 36
[tex]5 {y}^{2} - 3y = 36 \\ 5 {y}^{2} - 3y - 36 = 0 \\ 5 {y}^{2} - 15y + 12y - 36 = 0 \\ 5y(y - 3) + 12(y - 3) = 0 \\ (y - 3)(5y + 12) = 0 \\ y - 3 = 0 \: or \: 5y + 12 = 0 \\ y = 3 \: \: or \: \: y = - \frac{12}{5} \\ \because \: y \in \: I \implies \: y \neq - \frac{12}{5} \\ \huge \purple{ \boxed{ \therefore \: y = 3}} \\ \because \: x = 5y - 3..(equation \: 1) \\ \therefore \: x = 5 \times 3 - 3 = 15 - 3 = 12 \\ \huge \red{ \boxed{ x = 12}}[/tex]
Hence, the required integers are 3 and 12.
let
x = one integer
y = another integer
x = 5y - 3
If the product of the two integers is 36, then find the integers.
x * y = 36
(5y - 3) * y = 36
5y² - 3y = 36
5y² - 3y - 36 = 0
Solve the quadratic equation using factorization method
That is, find two numbers whose product will give -180 and sum will give -3
Note: coefficient of y² multiplied by -36 = -180
5y² - 3y - 36 = 0
The numbers are -15 and +12
5y² - 15y + 12y - 36 = 0
5y(y - 3) + 12 (y - 3) = 0
(5y + 12) (y - 3) = 0
5y + 12 = 0 y - 3 = 0
5y = - 12 y = 3
y = -12/5
The value of y can not be negative
Therefore,
y = 3
Substitute y = 3 into x = 5y - 3
x = 5y - 3
x = 5(3) - 3
= 15 - 3
= 12
x = 12
Therefore,
(x, y) = (12, 3)

Hartman Motors has $15 million in assets, which were financed with $6 million of debt and $9 million in equity. Hartman's beta is currently 1.4, and its tax rate is 30%. Use the Hamada equation to find Hartman's unlevered beta, bU. Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to two decimal places.
Answer:
Unlevered beta ≈ 1.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Unlevered beta is basically the unlevered weighted average cost as it shows the volatility of returns without financial leverage. Unlevered beta is also known as asset beta, while the levered beta is commonly known as equity beta. Unlevered beta is calculated from the hamada equation as:
Unlevered beta = Levered beta/[1 + ((1 - Tax rate) × (Debt / Equity))]
We are given;
Levered beta = 1.4
Tax rate = 30% = 0.3
Debt = $6 million
Equity = $15 million
Thus, plugging these into the hamada equation, we have;
Unlevered beta = 1.4/[1 + ((1 - 0.3) × (6/15))]
Unlevered beta = 1.4/(1 + (0.7 × 0.4)
Unlevered beta = 1.4/(1 + 0.28)
Unlevered beta = 1.4/1.28
Unlevered beta = 1.09375
To 2 decimal places;
Unlevered beta ≈ 1.09
32 percent of the customers of a fast food chain order the Whopper, French fries and a drink. A random sample of 10 cash register receipts is selected. What is the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered?
Answer: 0.0023
Step-by-step explanation:
Let X be the binomial variable that represents the number of receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered.
probability of success p = 32% = 0.32
Sample size : n= 10
Binomial probability function :
[tex]P(X=x)= \ ^nC_xp^x(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]
Now, the probability that eight receipts will show that the above three food items were ordered :
[tex]P(X=8)=\ ^{10}C_8(0.32)^8(1-0.32)^2\\\\=\dfrac{10!}{8!2!}(0.32)^8(0.68)^2\\\\=5\times9(0.0000508414176684)\\\\=0.00228786379508\approx0.0023[/tex]

Betty tabulated the miles-per-gallon values for her car as 26.5, 28, 30.2, 29.6, 32.3, and 24.7. She wants to construct the 95% two-sided confidence interval. Which value should Betty use for the value of t* to construct the confidence interval?
Answer:
Betty should use T = 2.571 to construct the confidence interval
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So
df = 6 - 1 = 5
95% confidence interval
Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 5 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of [tex]1 - \frac{1 - 0.95}{2} = 0.975[/tex]. So we have T = 2.571
Betty should use T = 2.571 to construct the confidence interval
Among 20 golden hamster litters recorded, there was a sample mean of =7.72 baby hamsters, with a sample standard deviation of s=2.5 hamsters per liter. Create a 98% confidence interval for the mean number of baby hamsters per liter.
Answer:
[tex] 7.72 -2.539 \frac{2.5}{\sqrt{20}} =6.30[/tex]
[tex] 7.72 +2.539 \frac{2.5}{\sqrt{20}} =9.14[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case we have the following info given:
[tex]\bar X= 7.72[/tex] represent the sample mean
[tex]s= 2.5[/tex] represent the sample deviation
[tex] n=20[/tex] represent the sample size
The confidence interval is given by:
[tex] \bar X \pm t_{\alpha/2} \frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]
The confidence interval is 98% and the significance level is [tex]\alpha=0.02[/tex] the degrees of freedom are given by:
[tex] df= n-1 = 20-1=19[/tex]
And the critical value would be:
[tex] t_{\alpha/2}= 2.539[/tex]
And replacing we got:
[tex] 7.72 -2.539 \frac{2.5}{\sqrt{20}} =6.30[/tex]
[tex] 7.72 +2.539 \frac{2.5}{\sqrt{20}} =9.14[/tex]
The 98% confidence interval is between 6.42 hamsters per liter to 9.02 hamsters per liter
Mean (μ) = 7.72, standard deviation (σ) = 2.5, sample size (n) = 20, Confidence (C) = 98% = 0.98
α = 1 - C = 0.02
α/2 = 0.01
The z score of α/2 is the same as the z score of 0.49 (0.5 - 0.01) which is equal to 2.326.
The margin of error E is:
[tex]E = Z_\frac{\alpha }{2} *\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \\\\E=2.326*\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{20} } =1.3[/tex]
The confidence interval = (μ ± E) = (7.72 ± 1.3) = (6.42, 9.02)
Hence the 98% confidence interval is between 6.42 hamsters per liter to 9.02 hamsters per liter

[10 points] A manufacturer wants to design an open box having a square base and a surface area of 108 square inches. What dimensions will produce a box with maximum volume?
Answer:
6 inches square by 3 inches high
Step-by-step explanation:
For a given surface area, the volume of an open-top box is maximized when it has the shape of half a cube. If the area were than of the whole cube, it would be 216 in² = 6×36 in².
That is, the bottom is 6 inches square, and the sides are 3 inches high.
_____
Let x and h represent the base edge length and box height, respectively. Then we have ...
x² +4xh = 108 . . . . box surface area
Solving for height, we get ...
h = (108 -x²)/(4x) = 27/x -x/4
The volume is the product of base area and height, so is ...
V = x²h = x²(27/x -x/4) = 27x -x³/4
We want to maximize the volume, so we want to set its derivative to zero.
dV/dx = 0 = 27 -(3/4)x²
x² = (4/3)(27) = 36
x = 6
h = 108/x² = 3
The box is 6 inches square and 3 inches high.
_____
Comment on maximum volume, minimum area
In the general case of an open-top box, the volume is maximized when the cost of the bottom and the cost of each pair of opposite sides is the same. Here, the "cost" is simply the area, so the area of the bottom is 1/3 the total area, 36 in².
If the box has a closed top, then each pair of opposite sides will have the same cost for a maximum-volume box. If costs are uniform, the box is a cube.

b. P(at least B) = 0.330
c. P(pass) = 0.855
Step-by-step explanation:
Professor Sanchez has been teaching Principles of Economics for over 25 years.
He uses the following scale for grading.
Grade Numerical Score Probability
A 4 0.090
B 3 0.240
C 2 0.360
D 1 0.165
F 0 0.145
a. Convert the above probability distribution to a cumulative probability distribution. (Round your answers to 3 decimal places.)
The cumulative probability distribution is given by
Grade = F
P(X ≤ x) = 0.145
Grade = D
P(X ≤ x) = 0.145 + 0.165 = 0.310
Grade = C
P(X ≤ x) = 0.145 + 0.165 + 0.360 = 0.670
Grade = B
P(X ≤ x) = 0.145 + 0.165 + 0.360 + 0.240 = 0.910
Grade = A
P(X ≤ x) = 0.145 + 0.165 + 0.360 + 0.240 + 0.090 = 1
Cumulative Probability Distribution
Grade P(X ≤ x)
F 0.145
D 0.310
C 0.670
B 0.910
A 1
b. What is the probability of earning at least a B in Professor Sanchez’s course? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
At least B means equal to B or greater than B grade.
P(at least B) = P(B) + P(A)
P(at least B) = 0.240 + 0.090
P(at least B) = 0.330
c. What is the probability of passing Professor Sanchez’s course? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.)
Passing the course means getting a grade of A, B, C or D
P(pass) = P(A) + P(B) + P(C) + P(D)
P(pass) = 0.090 + 0.240 + 0.360 + 0.165
P(pass) = 0.855
Alternatively,
P(pass) = 1 - P(F)
P(pass) = 1 - 0.145
P(pass) = 0.855
The shape of the distribution of the time required to get an oil change at a 15-minute oil-change facility is unknown. However, records indicate that the mean time is 16.2 minutes, and the standard deviation is 3.4 minutes.
Requried:
a. What is the probabilty that a random sample of n = 40 oil changes results in a sample mean time less than 15 minutes?
b. Suppose the manager agrees to pay each employee a $50 bonus if they meet a certain goal. On a typical Saturday, the oil-change facility will perform 40 oil changes between 10 A.M. and 12 P.M. Treating this as a random sample, there
would be a 10% chance of the mean oil-change time being at or below what value? This will be the goal established by the manager.
Answer:
(a) Probability that a random sample of n = 45 oil changes results in a sample mean time < 10 minutes i=0.0001.
(b) The mean oil-change time is 15.55 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let us denote the sample mean time as x
From the Then x = mean time = 16.2 minutes
The given standard deviation = 3.4 minutes
The value of n sample size = 45
