A 2010 study asserts that the number of hours that the average college student studies each week has been steadily dropping (The Boston Globe, July 4, 2010). In fact, the researchers state that, in the U.S., today’s undergraduates study an average of 14 hours per week. Suppose an administrator at a local university wants to show that the average study time of students at his university differs from the national average. He takes a random sample of 35 students at is university and finds that the average number of hours spent studying per week is 16.7. Assume that the population standard deviation is 7.2 hours. At 0.05 level of significance, what is the test statistics for testing the hypotheses H0: µ = 14 versus H1: µ ≠ 14?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Test statistic    |Z| = |-2.21|

calculated value Z = 2.21 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

The researchers state that, in the U.S., today’s undergraduates not study an average of 14 hours per week

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Mean of the Population' μ' = 14 hours per week

Given random sample size 'n'= 35

Mean of the sample (x⁻) = 16.7 hours per week

standard deviation of the Population (σ) = 7.2 hours per week

Level of significance = 0.05

Step(ii):-

Null hypotheses :H₁: µ = 14

Alternative Hypothesis : H₂: µ ≠ 14

Test statistic

              [tex]Z = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

              [tex]Z = \frac{14-16.7}{\frac{7.2}{\sqrt{35} } }[/tex]

               Z = -2.21

            |Z| = |-2.21|

The tabulated value

                    Z₀.₀₅ = 1.96

calculated value Z = 2.21 > 1.96 at 0.05 level of significance

 Null hypothesis is rejected

The researchers state that, in the U.S., today’s undergraduates not study an average of 14 hours per week

How to check if a number is a power of another number?

Answers

Answer:

If x^n  = y, then y is a power of x

Step-by-step explanation:

Take two numbers, x & y

To check whether, y is a a power of x

By hit & trial method, calculate x^n (approximately considered to near y). Try for many such no.s

If at any value x^n = y, then y is a power of x

Ex : Let x = 5, y = 625

By hit & trial, n = 3 or 4,

5^3 = 125 , 5^4 = 625

So, 625 is a power of x

Step-by-step explanation:

If we rewrite 6x+14y=28 into slope intercept form, it becomes 14y = -6x +28. When we divide the whole thing by 14 to get a singular y, -6x becomes -2/7x since 6/14 = 2/7, and 28 becomes 2.

The triangles UVW and XYZ are concurrent and similar, so option A is correct.

What is triangle?

Triangle is one of the fundamental shapes in geometry is represented by the symbol Δ and consists of three connected vertices, known as triangle.

Given:

Angles VUW and ZXY are congruent, angles UWV and XZP are congruent, and angles UVW and ZYX are congruent. The length of side UV is 50, the length of VW is 60, and the length of UW is 40. The length of side ZY is 48, the length of YX is 40, and the length of ZX is 32.

Here the triangles are congruent by the AAA congruence and the length of the first triangle is in the ratio 40:50:60 = 4:5:6 and the side of the second triangle is also in the ratio 32:40:48 = 4:5:6 therefore they are also similar.

Let X be a binomial random variable with p=0.3 and n=15. What is P(X=5)?

Answers

Answer:

0.20613038098

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for Binomial Probability =

P(X) =[ n!/(n - x)! × x! ] × p^x × q^n - x

From the question

x = 5

n = 15

p = 0.3

q = 1 - p

= 1 - 0.3 = 0.7

P(x = 5) = [15!/(15 - 5)! × 5! ] × 0.3^5 × 0.7^15 - 5

P(x = 5) = 3,003 × 0.3^5 × 0.7^10

P(x = 5) = 0.20613038098

Therefore, P(x = 5) = 0.20613038098

Answers

Answer:

1278.8 ft^3

Step-by-step explanation:

radius of cylinder = r = 5.8 ft

height of cylinder = h = 8.9 ft

radius of cone = r = 5.8 ft

height of cone = H - h = 18.5 ft - 8.9 ft = 9.6 ft

volume = volume of cylinder + volume of cone

V = (pi)(r^2)h + (1/3)(pi)(r^2)(H - h)

V = (3.14159)(5.8^2 ft^2)(8.9 ft) + (1/3)(3.14159)(5.8^2 ft^2)(9.6 ft)

V = 1278.8 ft^3

Answer:

If you use 3.14 for pi

1278.1 ft^2

Using the pi button on the calculator

1278.8 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the volume of the cylinder

V = pi r^2 h where r is the radius and h is the height of the cylinder

V = pi ( 5.8) ^2 ( 8.9)

V = pi *33.64 * 8.9

V = 299.396 pi

The find the volume of the cone

V= 1/3 pi r^2h

The height of the cone is  18.5- 8.9 =9.6

V= 1/3 ( pi ) ( 5.8)^2 ( 9.6)

V= 1/3 ( pi ) 33.64 ( 9.6)

V = 107.648 pi

Add the two volumes together

299.396 pi + 107.648 pi

407.044 pi

If you use 3.14 for pi
