Answer:

95​% confidence interval for the mean time required to earn a bachelor’s degree by all college students is [5.10 years , 5.20 years].

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the National Center for Education Statistics surveyed a random sample of 4400 college graduates about the lengths of time required to earn their bachelor’s degrees. The mean was 5.15 years and the standard deviation was 1.68 years respectively.

Firstly, the pivotal quantity for 95% confidence interval for the population mean is given by;

                              P.Q. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean time = 5.15 years

            [tex]\sigma[/tex] = sample standard deviation = 1.68 years

            n = sample of college graduates = 4400

            [tex]\mu[/tex] = population mean time

Here for constructing 95% confidence interval we have used One-sample z test statistics although we are given sample standard deviation because the sample size is very large so at large sample values t distribution also follows normal.

So, 95% confidence interval for the population mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is ;

P(-1.96 < N(0,1) < 1.96) = 0.95  {As the critical value of z at 2.5%

                                               level of significance are -1.96 & 1.96}  

P(-1.96 < [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < 1.96) = 0.95

P( [tex]-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]{\bar X-\mu}[/tex] < [tex]1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

P( [tex]\bar X-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] < [tex]\mu[/tex] < [tex]\bar X+1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ) = 0.95

95% confidence interval for [tex]\mu[/tex] = [ [tex]\bar X-1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] , [tex]\bar X+1.96 \times {\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex] ]

                                              = [ [tex]5.15-1.96 \times {\frac{1.68}{\sqrt{4400} } }[/tex] , [tex]5.15+1.96 \times {\frac{1.68}{\sqrt{4400} } }[/tex] ]

                                             = [5.10 , 5.20]

Therefore, 95​% confidence interval for the mean time required to earn a bachelor’s degree by all college students is [5.10 years , 5.20 years].

The matrix equation to solve the system of equations 3x - 2y = -3 and 6x - 5y = -9 is AX = B, where A is the coefficient matrix[tex]\(\begin{bmatrix}3 & -2 \\ 6 & -5\end{bmatrix}\)[/tex], X is the variable matrix[tex]\(\begin{bmatrix}x \\ y\end{bmatrix}\)[/tex], and B is the constant matrix[tex]\(\begin{bmatrix}-3 \\ -9\end{bmatrix}\)[/tex].

To solve the system of linear equations presented using matrices, we can set up a matrix equation of the form AX = B, where A is the coefficient matrix, X is the variable matrix, and B is the constant matrix.

The system of equations is:

From the system, we can identify the coefficient matrix A, the variable matrix X, and the constant matrix B as follows:

A =
[tex]\(\begin{bmatrix}3 & -2 \\ 6 & -5\end{bmatrix}\)[/tex]

X =
[tex]\(\begin{bmatrix}x \\ y\end{bmatrix}\)[/tex]

B =

Best predicted value of y' = 86.16 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

n = 100

Range of heights = 138 - 190cm

Range of weight = 39 to 150 kg

x' =167.46 cm

y' = 81.44 kg

r = 0.108

p value = 0.285

y = - 105 + 1.08x

Significance level = 0.05

We reject H0 since pvalue, 0.285 is less than significance level of 0.05.

Therefore,

Given height of adult male, x = 177 cm

y = - 105 + 1.08x

The best predicted value of y' =

y' = - 105 + 1.08(177)

y' = 86.16 kg

The best predicted value of y' is 86.16kg

Answer:

the answer is 262 days

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the second time after the hottest day of the year that the daily high temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, you need to solve the equation T(t) = 20. This involves finding the inverse cosine of a specific value, setting up an equation, and adding one year to the solution. After performing these steps, you can find the value of t that corresponds to the second time.

To find the second time after the hottest day of the year that the daily high temperature is 20 degrees Celsius, we need to solve the equation T(t) = 20. We can rewrite this equation as 7.5cos(2π/365t) + 21.5 = 20. Subtracting 21.5 from both sides gives us 7.5cos(2π/365t) = -1.5. Dividing both sides by 7.5 and simplifying further, we have cos(2π/365t) = -0.2. To find the second time, we need to find the value of t that satisfies this equation.

To find the value of t, we need to use the inverse cosine function (also known as arccosine). The inverse cosine function (cos^(-1)) gives us the angle whose cosine is a specific value. In this case, we want to find t such that cos(2π/365t) = -0.2. We can use a calculator or math software to find the inverse cosine of -0.2. Let's assume the inverse cosine of -0.2 is x.

Now we can set up an equation: 2π/365t = x. Solving for t, we get t = (365x)/(2π). However, we need to find the second time after the hottest day, so we need to find the value of t that satisfies the equation after adding one year (365 days) to the original value. Therefore, the second time after the hottest day of the year that the daily high temperature is 20 degrees Celsius is t = (365x)/(2π) + 365.

Answer:

"The probability that the amount of time spent on leisure activities per day for a randomly selected adult from the population of interest is less than 6 hours per day" is about 0.8749.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have here a random variable that is normally distributed, namely, the time spent on leisure activities by adults living in a household with no young children.

The normal distribution is determined by two parameters: the population mean, [tex] \\ \mu[/tex], and the population standard deviation, [tex] \\ \sigma[/tex]. In this case, the variable follows a normal distribution with parameters [tex] \\ \mu = 4.5[/tex] hours per day and [tex] \\ \sigma = 1.3[/tex] hours per day.

We can solve this question following the next strategy:

We use the standard normal distribution because we can "transform" any raw score into standardized values, which represent distances from the population mean in standard deviations units, where a positive value indicates that the value is above the mean and a negative value that the value is below it. A standard normal distribution has [tex] \\ \mu = 0[/tex] and [tex] \\ \sigma = 1[/tex].

The formula for the z-scores is as follows

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex] [1]

Solving the question

Using all the previous information and using formula [1], we have

x = 6 hours per day (the raw score).

[tex] \\ \mu = 4.5[/tex] hours per day.

[tex] \\ \sigma = 1.3[/tex] hours per day.

Then (without using units)

[tex] \\ z = \frac{x - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{6 - 4.5}{1.3}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = \frac{1.5}{1.3}[/tex]

[tex] \\ z = 1.15384 \approx 1.15[/tex]

We round the value of z to two decimals since most standard normal tables only have two decimals for z.

We can observe that z = 1.15, and it tells us that the value is 1.15 standard deviations units above the mean.

With this value for z, we can consult the cumulative standard normal table, and for this z = 1.15, we have a cumulative probability of 0.8749. That is, this table gives us P(z<1.15).  

We can describe the procedure of finding this probability in the next way: At the left of the table, we have z = 1.1; we can follow the first line on the table until we find 0.05. With these two values, we can determine the probability obtained above, P(z<1.15) = 0.8749.

Notice that the probability for the z-score, P(z<1.15), of the raw score, P(x<6) are practically the same,  [tex] \\ P(z<1.15) \approx P(x<6)[/tex]. For an exact probability, we have to use a z-score = 1.15384 (without rounding), that is, [tex] \\ P(z<1.15384) = P(x<6) = 0.8757[/tex]. However, the probability is approximated since we have to round z = 1.15384 to z = 1.15 because of the use of the table.

Therefore, "the probability that the amount of time spent on leisure activities per day for a randomly selected adult from the population of interest is less than 6 hours per day" is about 0.8749.

We can see this result in the graphs below. First, for P(x<6) in [tex] \\ N(4.5, 1.3)[/tex] (red area), and second, using the standard normal distribution ([tex] \\ N(0, 1)[/tex]), for P(z<1.15), which corresponds with the blue shaded area.

Final answer:

The question seeks to find the probability that an adult spends less than 6 hours per day on leisure activities, using the given mean and standard deviation for a normal distribution. The z-score is calculated and then used to determine the probability using the cumulative normal distribution function.

Explanation:

The student's question asks to find the probability that a randomly selected adult from a certain population spends less than 6 hours per day on leisure activities, given that the distribution of time spent is normally distributed with a mean of 4.5 hours and a standard deviation of 1.3 hours.

To solve this, you can use the z-score formula:

z = (X - μ) / σ

where X is the value of interest (6 hours), μ is the mean (4.5 hours), and σ is the standard deviation (1.3 hours).

Using this, we calculate:

z = (6 - 4.5) / 1.3

= 1.15 / 1.3

= 0.8846

Now, we look up this z-score in a standard normal distribution table or use a calculator with the normal distribution function to find the corresponding probability.

Assuming normal CDF is the function for cumulative normal distribution:

probability = CDF(-∞, 0.8846, 0, 1)

This will give us the probability that the adult spends less than 6 hours per day on leisure activities. Remember, the cumulative distribution function gives the area to the left of the z-score, which corresponds to the probability of obtaining a value less than the one of interest.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding heights of presidents and height of their main opponents form matched pairs.

The data for the test are the differences between the heights.

μd = the​ president's height minus their main​ opponent's height.

President's height. main opp diff

191. 166. 25

180. 179. 1

180. 168. 12

182. 183. - 1

197. 194. 3

180. 186. - 6

Sample mean, xd

= (25 + 1 + 12 - 1 + 3 + 6)/6 = 5.67

xd = 5.67

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n = 6

Summation(x - mean)² = (25 - 5.67)^2 + (1 - 5.67)^2 + (12 - 5.67)^2+ (- 1 - 5.67)^2 + (3 - 5.67)^2 + (- 6 - 5.67)^2 = 623.3334

Standard deviation = √(623.3334/6 sd = 10.19

For the null hypothesis

H0: μd ≥ 0

For the alternative hypothesis

H1: μd < 0

The distribution is a students t. Therefore, degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

The formula for determining the test statistic is

t = (xd - μd)/(sd/√n)

t = (5.67 - 0)/(10.19/√6)

t = 1.36

We would determine the probability value by using the t test calculator.

p = 0.12

Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.12, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, at 5% significance level, we can conclude that for the population of heights for presidents and their main​ opponents, the differences have a mean greater than 0 cm.

The null hypothesis in this case would be that there is no average height advantage for presidents over their main opponents (µd ≤ 0), while the alternative hypothesis is that presidents are taller on average (µd > 0). A paired t-test with a significance level of 0.05 is usually employed in testing these hypotheses using the p-value and t-score.

In hypothesis testing, the goal is to determine the validity of a claim made. In this case, the claim is that the mean difference in height, where the difference is calculated as the president's height minus their main opponent's height, is greater than 0 cm. This represents the theory that taller presidential candidates have an advantage.

For setting up a null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis, we consider the following parameters:

To test these hypotheses, we would typically use a one-sample t-test for paired differences with a significance level (alpha) of 0.05. A p-value less than this would allow us to reject the null hypothesis in favor of the alternative hypothesis that presidents are on average taller than their main opponents. Use of p-value and t-score is essential in conducting such a test.

A, D, and the choice that says the volume is ~261.33 metres cubed

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a triangular prism is denoted by: V = (1/3) * Bh, where B is the base area and h is the height.

Here, we know that the base is a triangle with base 8 and height 14, and the overall height is 7. The first step is to find the area of the base. The area of a triangle is denoted by:

A = (1/2) * b * h, where b is the base and h is the height, so A is correct.

Plug values in:

A = (1/2) * 8 * 14 = 56 metres squared, so the D is correct.

Then use this and the height of 14 to find the volume:

V = (1/3) * Bh

V = (1/3) * 56 * 14 = 784/3 metres cubed (I'm assuming you missed an answer choice when copying the problem on here, so the correct last option is the one that says the volume is 784/3 or ~261.33 metres cubed)

Answer:

Use the formula A = one-half b h to find the area of the base.

Total: 401

The building maintenance supervisor wants to know if the entrances are equally utilized.

This problem can be solved using the Chi-square goodess of fit test.

The expected value for each door is

[tex]E=401/4=100.25[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are equal to the number of categories (4 doors) minus one:

[tex]df=n-1=4-1=3[/tex]

Then, the value of the chi-square statistic can be calculated as:

[tex]\chi^2=\sum \dfrac{(O_i-E)^2}{E}\\\\\\\chi^2=\dfrac{(81-100.25)^2}{100.25}+\dfrac{(129-100.25)^2}{100.25}+\dfrac{(72-100.25)^2}{100.25}+\dfrac{(119-100.25)^2}{100.25}\\\\\\\chi^2=\dfrac{370.5625+826.5625+798.0625+351.5625}{100.25}=\dfrac{2346.75}{100.25}=23.41[/tex]

The P-value for this test statistic χ^2=23.41 and df=3 is:

[tex]P-value=P(\chi^2_3>23.41)=0.00003[/tex]

This P-value is much smaller than the significance level (0.01), so the effect is significant.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The significance level is 0.05.

The data is:

Brand X: 91, 100, 88, 89

Brand Y: 99, 96, 94, 99

Brand Z: 83, 88, 89, 76

We have to check if there is a significant difference between the absorbency rating of each brand.

Null hypothesis: all means are equal

[tex]H_0:\mu_x=\mu_y=\mu_z[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis: the means are not equal

[tex]H_a: \mu_x\neq\mu_y\neq\mu_z[/tex]

We have to apply a one-way ANOVA

We start by calculating the standard deviation for each brand:

[tex]s_x^2=30,\,\,s_y^2=6,\,\,s_z^2=35.33[/tex]

Then, we calculate the mean standard error (MSE):

[tex]MSE=(\sum s_i^2)/a=(30+6+35.33)/3=71.33/3=23.78[/tex]

Now, we calculate the mean square between (MSB), but we previously have to know the sample means and the mean of the sample means:

[tex]M_x=92,\,\,M_y=97,\,\,M_z=84\\\\M=(92+97+84)/3=91[/tex]

The MSB is then:

[tex]s^2=\dfrac{\sum(M_i-M)^2}{N-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{(92-91)^2+(97-91)^2+(84-91)^2}{3-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{1+36+49}{2}=\dfrac{86}{2}=43\\\\\\\\MSB=ns^2=4*43=172[/tex]

Now we calculate the F statistic as:

[tex]F=MSB/MSE=172/23.78=7.23[/tex]

The degrees of freedom of the numerator are:

The P-value of F=7.23, dfn=2 and dfd=9 is:

[tex]P-value=P(F>7.23)=0.01342[/tex]

As the P-value (0.013) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected.

There is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

Answer:

452.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of a circle = pi*radius squared

A= 3.14(12)^2

=3.14*144

=452.16

Final answer:

The area of a circle with a radius of 12 cm can be calculated using the formula A = \u03C0r^2. By applying the radius to this formula with pi approximated to 3.14, we obtain an area of 452.16 cm^2, which corresponds to option D.

Explanation:

To calculate the area of the circle with a radius of 12 cm, we use the formula: A = \\u03C0r^2\

Where (pi) is approximately 3.14 and r is the radius of the circle.

Plugging the radius into the formula:

A = 3.14 * (12 cm)^2

A = 3.14 * 144 cm^2

A = 452.16 cm^2

Thus, the correct answer is D. 452.16 cm^2.

Answer:

D, E, F

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step I would do is distribute the original equation. After distributing, the equation is now 8x² + 16xy. The first answer I see that matches this is D.

Then, after already eliminating A, B, and C, I look at E. I distribute the x and find out it is also equal to 8x² + 16xy.

Then, I look at F. After distributing again, it is also equal to 8x² + 16xy.

Answer:

a. Gwen expect to make 3.75 sets

b. The variance for the number of sets Gwen will make is 0.9375

c. Gwen expect to make 2 shots

Step-by-step explanation:

a. According to the given data we have the following:

Here this follows negative binomial distribution with parameter r =3 and p=0.8

To calculate how many sets does Gwen expect to make we have to calculate the following formula:

expected number of sets =r/p

expected number of sets =3/0.8=3.75

Gwen expect to make 3.75 sets.

b. In order to calculate the variance for the number of sets Gwen will make we have to use the following formula:

variance for the number of sets=σ∧2=r(1-p)/p∧2

variance for the number of sets=3*(1-0.8)/0.8^2

variance for the number of sets=0.9375

The variance for the number of sets Gwen will make is 0.9375

c. To calculate how many shots does Gwen expect to make, we have to calculate first the probability she shoots all the three in the set as follows:

probability she shoots all the three in the set=0.8∧3=0.512

if E(X)=1/p, therefore, 1/p=1/0.512=1.95

Gwen expect to make 2 shots
