Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) 0.011 = 1.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51

b) 0.0001 = 0.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using 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.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem estabilishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

In this problem, we have that:

[tex]\mu = 50, \sigma = 1.8[/tex]

(a) If the distribution is normal, what is the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51?

Here [tex]n = 17, s = \frac{1.8}{\sqrt{17}} = 0.4366[/tex]

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 51. So

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

By the Central Limit Theorem

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

[tex]Z = \frac{51 - 50}{0.4366}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.29[/tex]

[tex]Z = 2.29[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9890

1 - 0.989 = 0.011

0.011 = 1.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51

(b) What is the (approximate) probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51?

Here [tex]n = 17, s = \frac{1.8}{\sqrt{45}} = 0.2683[/tex]

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

[tex]Z = \frac{51 - 50}{0.0.2683}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.73[/tex]

[tex]Z = 3.73[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.9999

1 - 0.9999 = 0.0001

0.0001 = 0.1% probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51

Answer 2

Final answer:

To find the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51, we can convert it to a standard normal distribution and use the z-score formula. The probability is approximately 0.011. For a sample size of 45 pins, the probability is approximately 0.001.

Explanation:

To find the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51, we can convert it to a standard normal distribution and use the z-score formula. The formula for the z-score is:

z = (x - μ) / (σ / sqrt(n))

where x is the value we are interested in (51), μ is the mean (50), σ is the standard deviation (1.8), and n is the sample size (17).

Plugging in the values, we get:

z = (51 - 50) / (1.8 / sqrt(17))

Calculating this, we find that the z-score is approximately 1.044. Looking up this z-score in the z-table, we find that the probability is 0.853. However, we are interested in the probability that the hardness is at least 51, which means we need to find the area to the right of the z-score. So, we subtract the probability from 1:

Probability = 1 - 0.853 = 0.147, or approximately 0.011 when rounded to four decimal places.

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 17 pins is at least 51 is approximately 0.011.

To find the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51, we follow the same process. The only difference is that the sample size is now 45 instead of 17. Plugging in the values into the z-score formula, we find that the z-score is approximately 3.106. Looking up this z-score in the z-table, we find that the probability is 0.999. Subtracting this probability from 1, we get:

Probability = 1 - 0.999 = 0.001.

Therefore, the probability that the sample mean hardness for a random sample of 45 pins is at least 51 is approximately 0.001.

Group of answer choices p-value is between 0.01 and 0.025 p-value > 0.20 p-value < 0.002 p-value > 0.10

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the sample data

Pre-test... 12 14 11 12 13

Post-Test 15 17 11 13 12

The mean of pre-test

x = ΣX / n

x = (12+14+11+12+13) / 5

x = 12.4

The standard deviation of pre-test

S.D = √Σ(X-x)² / n

S.D = √[(12-12.4)²+(14-12.4)²+(11-12.4)²+(12-12.4)²+(13-12.4)² / 5]

S.D = √(5.2 / 5)

S.D = 1.02.

The mean of post-test

x' = ΣX / n

x' = (15+17+11+13+12) / 5

x' = 13.6

The standard deviation of post-test

S.D' = √Σ(X-x)² / n

S.D' = √[(15-13.6)²+(17-13.6)²+(11-13.6)²+(13-13.6)²+(12-13.6)² / 5]

S.D = √(23.2 / 5)

S.D = 2.15

Test value

t = (sample difference − hypothesized difference) / standard error of the difference

t = [(x-x') - (μ- μ')] / (S.D / n — S.D'/n)

t = (12.4-13.6) - (μ-μ')/ (1.02/5 - 2.15/5)

-1.5 = -1.2 - (μ-μ') / -0.226

-1.5 × -0.226 = -1.2 -(μ-μ')

​0.339 = -1.2 - (μ-μ')

(μ-μ') = -1.2 -0.339

μ-μ' = -1.539

Then, μ ≠ μ'

We can calculate our P-value using table.

This is a two-sided test, so the P-value is the combined area in both scores.

The p-value is 0.172

The p value > 0.1

Using the t-distribution, it is found that the p-value is of 0.086.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no improvement, that is, the subtraction of the mean of the grades on test 1 by the mean of the grades on test 2 is of at least 0, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \geq 0[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is improvement, that is, the grades on the second test were greater than on the first, hence:

[tex]H_1: \mu_1 - \mu_2 < 0[/tex]

We can find the standard deviation for the samples, hence, the t-distribution is used.

The p-value is found using a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the variable is less than a value, with 5 + 5 - 2 = 8 df and t = -1.5, using a calculator, the p-value is of 0.086.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=-1.99<\frac{a-288}{3.7}[/tex]

[tex]z=1.99<\frac{a-288}{3.7}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=288 -1.99*3.7=214.4[/tex]

[tex]a=288 +1.99*3.7=295.4[/tex]

And the limits for this case are: (214.4; 295.4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

The Z-score is "a numerical measurement used in statistics of a value's relationship to the mean (average) of a group of values, measured in terms of standard deviations from the mean".  

Solution to the problem

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

[tex]X \sim N(288,3.7)[/tex]  

Where [tex]\mu=288[/tex] and [tex]\sigma=3.7[/tex]

The confidence level is 95.44 and the signficance is [tex] 1-0.9544=0.0456[/tex] and the value of [tex]\alpha/2 =0.0228[/tex]. And the critical value for this case is [tex]z = \pm 1.99[/tex]

Using this condition we can find the limits

[tex]z=-1.99<\frac{a-288}{3.7}[/tex]

[tex]z=1.99<\frac{a-288}{3.7}[/tex]

And if we solve for a we got

[tex]a=288 -1.99*3.7=214.4[/tex]

[tex]a=288 +1.99*3.7=295.4[/tex]

And the limits for this case are: (214.4; 295.4)

From that point on the graph, move up 2, left 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

Answers

The y-intercept is the y value when x = 0 --> (0, y) or the point where the line crosses through the y-axis.

The slope(m) is:

[tex]m=\frac{rise}{run}[/tex]

"rise" is the number of units you go up(+) or down(-) from each point

"run" is the number of units you go to the right from each point

You know:

y-intercept = -6 or (0, -6)

m = 2 or [tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex] , so from each point you go up 2 units and to the right 1 unit to get to the next point.

#1: Locate the ordered pair (0, –6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

This is true

#2: Locate the ordered pair (0, –6). From that point on the graph, move up 2, left 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

This isn't accurate because the slope doesn't move left.

#3: Locate the ordered pair (–6, 0). From that point on the graph, move up 2, right 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

This isn't accurate because (-6, 0) isn't the y-intercept or a point on the y-axis

#4: Locate the ordered pair (–6, 0). From that point on the graph, move up 2, left 1 to locate the next ordered pair on the line. Draw a line through the two points.

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

got 100 on quiz

The maximum height of the firework is 40 feet.

What is maximum height?

'The maximum height of the object is the highest vertical position along its trajectory.'

According to the given problem,

y = -16x²+32x+24

For maximum height,

The slope of y with respect to x has to be 0.

⇒ [tex]\frac{dy}{dx}[/tex] = 0

Now, [tex]\frac{d(-16x^{2} +32x+24)}{dx}[/tex] = -32x +32

⇒-32x + 32 = 0

⇒ 32 = 32x

⇒1 = x or x = 1 second

Therefore after 1 second, the firework reaches maximum height.

Now, we put the value of x = 1 second in the equation: y = -16x²+32x+24

⇒ -16(1)² + 32(1) +24

= -16+32+24

= 40 feet

Hence, we can conclude that after 1 second, the firework reaches a maximum height of 40 feet.

If one of Joey’s days had a water temperature of 69.0 degrees Fahrenheit and the fish activity on that day was 265, what is the residual activity for this particular temperature?

Answers

The residual value is the difference between the actual and predicted values. Hence, the residual activity at a temperature of 69°F will be −2484.95

The equation of the Least Square Regression Line is given as :

y = 152.1 + 37.65t

The predicted amount of activity, y at a temperature of 69°F will be :

y = 152.1 + 37.65(69)

y = 2749.95

The actual amount of activity at a temperature of 69°F is 265

The residual activity at 69°F temperature can be calculated thus :

Residual = Actual - Predicted

Residual = 265 - 2749.95 = −2484.95

Therefore, the residual activity at 69°F is −2484.95

A. Explain what the p-value is
B. What is the p-value for the test statistic.
C. What is the statistical devision when the alpha=0.05
D. Explain the managerial conclusion for this situation.

Answers

Answer: p-value  = 0.1085 and we will not reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Hypothesis are :

[tex]H_0:p=0.3\\\\H_1:p>0.3[/tex]

Here, n = 200

x = 68

So, [tex]\hat{p}=\dfrac{68}{200}=0.34[/tex]

So, the test statistic value would be :

[tex]z=\dfrac{\hat{p}-p}{\sqrt{\dfrac{p(1-p)}{n}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.34-0.3}{\sqrt{\dfrac{0.3\times 0.7}{200}}}\\\\z=\dfrac{0.04}{0.0324}\\\\z=1.234[/tex]

So, the value of statistic value is 1.234.

And the p-value = 0.1085 at 5% level of significance.

So, 0.1085 <  1.234,

So, we will not reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, p-value  = 0.1085 and we will not reject the null hypothesis.

Final answer:

The p-value is a measure of the evidence against the null hypothesis in a hypothesis test. To calculate the p-value, we compare the observed proportion to the target percentage using a one-sample proportion test. The statistical decision when alpha = 0.05 is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05.

A. The p-value is a measure of the evidence against the null hypothesis in a hypothesis test. It represents the probability of observing a test statistic as extreme as the one obtained, assuming the null hypothesis is true.

B. To calculate the p-value for the test statistic in this case, we need to perform a hypothesis test. We compare the proportion of viewers who would see the movie again (68/200 = 34%) to the target percentage of 30% using a one-sample proportion test.

C. The statistical decision when alpha = 0.05 is to reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is less than 0.05. This indicates strong evidence against the null hypothesis.

D. The managerial conclusion for this situation would depend on the p-value obtained. If the p-value is less than 0.05, we can conclude that there is strong evidence to suggest that more than 30% of the viewers would see the movie again. Otherwise, we cannot make a definitive conclusion.

what is the value for x 3x - 2 = 16

Answers

Answer:

18

Step-by-step explanation:

I meant 6x3=18 -2=16 sorry for confusion

To find the value of x, you need to isolate/get the variable "x" by itself in the equation:

3x - 2 = 16       Add 2 on both sides

3x - 2 + 2 = 16 + 2

3x = 18         Divide 3 on both sides to get "x" by itself

[tex]\frac{3x}{3} =\frac{18}{3}[/tex]

x = 6

PROOF

3x - 2 = 16      Substitute/plug in 6 into "x" since x = 6

3(6) - 2 = 16

18 - 2 = 16

16 = 16

i need helppp please :(

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

2 ( 8 - 3c) = 4c - 34

16 - 6c = 4c - 34

6c + 4c = 16 + 34

10c = 50

c = 50/ 10

therefore c = 5

Hope it will help :)

16-6c-16=4c-34-16. Simplify: -6c=4c-50.

Subtract 4c: -6-4c=4c-50-4c. Simplify: -10c = -50. Answer: 5

Private universities claim to offer a higher quality education compared to public universities as justification for their more expensive tuition rates. The implication is that better education in the classroom leads to better employees after graduation. As a HR specialist in charge of selecting the best possible future employees from a pool of applicants, you propose giving preference to applicants with degrees from private universities. Hoping to control for the influence of academic performance on on-the-job performance, you randomly select 25 pairs of employees based on their cumulative GPA, one with a degree from a private university and another with a degree from a public university, and record their last performance evaluation score in an Excel file. The data appears as follows:

In a population of 210​ women, the heights of the women are normally distributed with a mean of 64.4 inches and a standard deviation of 2.9 inches. If 36 women are selected at​ random, find the mean mu Subscript x overbar and standard deviation sigma Subscript x overbar of the population of sample means. Assume that the sampling is done without replacement and use a finite population correction factor. Round to two decimal places.

Answers

Given Information:

Population size = N = 210

Mean height of women population = μ = 64.4 in.

Standard deviation of height of women population = σ = 2.9 in.

Sample size = n = 36

Required Information:

Sample mean = μx = ?

Sample standard deviation = σx = ?

Answer:

Sample mean = μx = 64.4 in.

Sample standard deviation = σx = 0.44 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a Normal Distribution, which is a continuous probability distribution and is symmetrical around the mean. The shape of this distribution is like a bell curve and most of the data is clustered around the mean. The area under this bell shaped curve represents the probability.

The mean of the sample will be same as population mean that is

μ = μx = 64.4 in

Whereas the sample standard deviation is given by

[tex]\sigma_{x} = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } \cdot \sqrt{\frac{N-n}{N-1} }[/tex]

Where σ is the standard deviation of height of women population, N is the population size and n is the sample size.

The term [tex]\sqrt{\frac{N-n}{N-1} }[/tex] is known as finite population correction factor and is used since the sampling is done without replacement.

[tex]\sigma_{x} = \frac{2.9}{\sqrt{36} } \cdot \sqrt{\frac{210-36}{210-1} }\\\sigma_{x} = 0.483 \cdot \sqrt{\frac{174}{209} }\\\sigma_{x} = 0.483 \cdot 0.912\\\sigma_{x} = 0.44[/tex]

Therefore, the standard deviation of sample is 0.44 in.

Final answer:

To find the mean (mu Subscript x overbar) and standard deviation (sigma Subscript x overbar) of the population of sample means, use the formulas provided.

Explanation:

To find the mean (mu Subscript x overbar) and standard deviation (sigma Subscript x overbar) of the population of sample means, we use the formulas:

Mean of sample means (mu Subscript x overbar) = population mean (mu)Standard deviation of sample means (sigma Subscript x overbar) = population standard deviation (sigma) divided by the square root of the sample size (n), multiplied by the finite population correction factor (sqrt(N-n)/sqrt(N-1))

In this case, the population mean (mu) = 64.4 inches, the population standard deviation (sigma) = 2.9 inches, and the sample size (n) = 36.

Using these values, we can calculate:

Mean of sample means (mu Subscript x overbar) = 64.4 inchesStandard deviation of sample means (sigma Subscript x overbar) = (2.9 inches) / sqrt(36) * sqrt(210-36) / sqrt(210-1) = 0.483 inches

A national magazine took a poll to determine company's opinions about outsourcing. Outsourcing is defined as the assignment of critical, but non-core, business functions to outside specialists. The magazine found that 26 percent of business executives felt that the benefits of outsourcing were less than what they expected. A sample of 100 business executives was polled. In this sample 19% of the business executives felt the benefits of outsourcing were less than what they expected. You want to determine whether the proportion of business executives in the sample differs from the national magazine poll. Which statistical test should you use?

Answers

Answer:

Hypothesis test on a proportion.

There is no enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of business executives in the sample differs from the national magazine poll.

Step-by-step explanation:

We should test the hypothesis of the proportion, with a z-statistic.

The claim is that the proportion of business executives in the sample differs from the national magazine poll.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.26\\\\H_a:\pi<0.26[/tex]

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample, of size n=100, has a proportion p=0.19.

The standard error for the proportion is:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.26*0.74}{100}}=\sqrt{0.001924}=0.044[/tex]

Then, the z-statistic can be calculated as:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi+0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.19-0.26+0.5/100}{0.044}=\dfrac{-0.065}{0.044}=-1.477[/tex]

The P-value for this one-tailed test is:

[tex]P-value=P(z<-1.477)=0.07[/tex]

As the P-value is bigger than the significance level, the effect is not significant. The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is no enough evidence to support the claim that the proportion of business executives in the sample differs from the national magazine poll.

The mayor of a town has proposed a plan for the annexation of a new bridge. A political study took a sample of 900 voters in the town and found that 75% of the residents favored annexation. Using the data, a political strategist wants to test the claim that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is above 72%. Determine the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

P-value of the test statistic: P=0.0266.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis test on a proportion.

The claim is that the percentage of residents who favor annexation is above 72% This is going to be stated in the alternative hypothesis.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \pi=0.72\\\\H_a:\pi>0.72[/tex]

The sample size is n=900 and the sample proportion is p=0.75.

The standard devaition is calculated as:

[tex]\sigma_p=\sqrt{\dfrac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{0.72*0.28}{900}}=\sqrt{0.000224}=0.015[/tex]

Then, the z-statistic is:

[tex]z=\dfrac{p-\pi-0.5/n}{\sigma_p}=\dfrac{0.75-0.72-0.5/900}{0.015}=\dfrac{0.029}{0.015} = 1.9333[/tex]

For this right tailed test, the P-value is:

[tex]P-value=P(z>0.1933)=0.0266[/tex]
