A business consultant wanted to investigate if providing day-care facilities on premises by companies reduces the absentee rate of working mothers with children under six years old. She took a sample of 45 such mothers from companies that provide day-care facilities on premises. These mothers missed an average of 6.4 days from work last year with a standard deviation of 1.20 days. Another sample of 50 such mothers taken from companies that do not provide day-care facilities on premises showed that these mothers missed an average of 9.3 days last year with a standard deviation of 1.85 days.
a. Using a 2.5% significance level, can you conclude that the mean number of days missed per year by mothers working for companies that provide day-care facilities on premises is less than the mean number of days missed per year by mothers working for companies that do not provide day-care facilities on premises?
b. Construct a 98% confidence interval for the difference between the two population means.
i. State the hypothesis
ii. State the rejection or nor rejection region
iii. Calculate the test statistics
iv. State the conclusion

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Part a:

The null and alternate hypotheses are

i) H0:  ud  ≥ u    vs          Ha: ud < u

ii) As the significance level is ∝= 0.025 and it is one tailed test then the critical region R < - 1.96

iii) The test statistics is  =−9.15

iv) We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Part b:   CI = (−3.637,−2.163)

Step-by-step explanation:

AS the sample sizes are sufficiently large (n1,n2> 30) we can use the sample standard deviations in place of population standard deviations.

Part a:

The null and alternate hypotheses are

i) H0:  ud  ≥ u    vs          Ha: ud < u

where

ud is the mean of the days missed  per year by mothers working for companies that provide day-care facilities on premises

and

u is the mean number of days missed per year by mothers working for companies that do not provide day-care facilities on premises

ii) As the significance level is ∝= 0.025 and it is one tailed test then the critical region R < - 1.96

iii) The test statistics is

z= xˉ1 − xˉ2/√ s 1² /n 1 +s 2² /n 2

​=  6.4−9.3/ √1.2 ² /45+ 1.85² /50​

=−9.15

iv) The calculated z = −9.15 values lies in the critical region= R < - 1.96 and the null hypothesis is rejected. Hence the  mean of absentees for companies that provide day-care facilities on premises  is less than the

the mean number of absentees for companies that do not provide day-care facilities on premises.

We accept the alternate hypothesis.

Part b:

The confidence interval can be calculated using the formula

CI = ( xˉ1 − xˉ2) ± z∝/2 √ s 1² /n 1 +s 2² /n 2

CI = (6.4−9.3) ± 2.326 * √1.2 ² /45+ 1.85² /50​

CI = (−3.637,−2.163)

A sample of 30 jeepney drivers were surveyed and found that their average monthly income is Php 3500.00 with a standard deviation of Php 350.00. Test the hypothesis at 1% level of significance?​

Answers

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 3000

H0 : μ ≠ 3000

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

xbar = 3500

μ = 3000

σ = 300

n = 30

(3500 - 3000) ÷ (350/√(30))

Test statistic = 7.824

Df = 30 - 1 = 29

Tcritical at 0.01 = 2.462

Test statistic > critical value ; we reject H0 ; and concluded that there is significant evidence that

μ ≠ 3000

What is the largest 4- digit number that is divisible by 3, 6, and 9? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer: 9990

========================================================

Explanation:

Start with the largest four digit number possible (9999) and see if it's divisible by 3, 6 and 9

9999/3 = 33339999/6 = 1666.59999/9 = 1111

When dividing the number over 6, we don't get a whole number. So 6 is not a factor of 9999, and we cross 9999 off the list.

------------------------

Decrease the number by 9. We do this because the result will be another multiple of 9 (which is automatically also a multiple of 3 as well, since 9 = 3*3)

So we go from 9999 to 9990

Repeat the last set of steps we did earlier

9990/3 = 33309990/6 = 16659990/9 = 1110

Every result is a whole number, which shows that 9990 is a multiple of 3, 6 and 9. In other words, 9990 is divisible by 3, 6 and 9. It's the largest such 4 digit number.

Answer:

2(2x^2 + x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

5x^2+2x + 4-x^2

Re arrange so like terms are next to each other

Keep the same symbol that is at the front of the term when moving it

5x^2 - x^2 + 2x + 4

We will just do the first part first

5x^2 - x^2

5x^2 - 1x^2 (is the same thing as above)

So because they are like terms (are both x^2)

We can just minus 1 from 5

5-1=4

So 4x^2

Now the equation is

4x^2 + 2x + 4

This is as small as it gets but you can also bring it to this

4, 2 and 4 all are divisible by 2 so

2(2x^2 + x + 2)

The line that is parallel to ​ line CD ​ in the figure is A. Line FA

From the provided information, line FA is the same distance from line CD at every point, meaning that these lines are parallel.

What do parallel lines mean?

Parallel lines are lines on a flat surface that never meet or cross each other.

When two lines are straight from beginning to end, they are parallel. Their distance is always the same at all points.

Some properties of parallel lines include:

Their corresponding angles are equal.The interior angles are also equal when another line cuts across them.
