A marine biologist wanted to construct a t interval to estimate the mean weight of marine otters using 98% confidence. They took a random sample of n = 8 marine otters to measure their weights. These weights were roughly symmetric with a mean of 2 = 4.5 kg and a standard deviation of sx = 1.1 kg.What critical value t* should they use?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

CI 98 %  =  ( 3.332  ;  5.668 )

t(c)  =  2.9979

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval  CI  98 %   then  α  =  2 %   α  =  0,02    α/2  =  0.01

Sample information:

Sample size    n  =  8

sample mean     x  =  4.5

standard deviation of sample    s  =  1.1 kg

degree of freedom     df  =  n  -  1     df  =  8  -  1    df  =  7

With    α/2  0.01  and  df  =  7 from t-studente table we find   t(c)

t(c)  =  2.9979

CI 98 %  =  (   x  ±  t(c) * s/√n )

CI 98 %  =  (  4.5  ±  2.9979 *  1.1/ √8 )

CI 98 %  =  (  4.5  ±  3.2976/2.8228 )

CI 98 %  =  (  4.5  ± 1.168 )

CI 98 %  =  ( 3.332  ;  5.668 )

3. Mrs. Baumgartner draws a pair of supplementary angles and tells the class that
the angle measures are (4x +30)' and (2x + 6).
a. Write an equation to determine the value of x. Solve for x. SHOW ALL WORK

Answers

Answer:

Equation: 4x + 30 + 2x + 6 = 180

Answer: x = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the measures of supplementary angles is 180 deg.

Equation:

4x + 30 + 2x + 6 = 180

Solution:

4x + 30 + 2x + 6 = 180

Add like terms on the left side.

6x + 36 = 180

Subtract 36 from both sides.

6x = 144

x = 24

Answer:

X=24

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles = 180°

4x+30+2x+6=180

Combine like terms> 4x+2x=6x

Add: 30+6=36

6x+36=180.

Subtract 36 on both sides. > 36-36=0. 180-36=144.

Drop what you have left> 6x   144

Divide by 6. > 6/6= 1. 144/6=24.

A density graph is used to find the probability of a discrete random variable
taking on a range of values.
A. True
B. False

Answers

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

This is false because A density graph is not used to find the probability of a discrete random variable taking on a range of values. This is because you have to use a calculations instead of a graph. The correct how to calculate is: Determine a single event with a single outcome. Identify the total number of outcomes that can occur. Divide the number of events by the number of possible outcomes.

Therefore, it's B ( false).

In the year 2000, the average car had a fuel economy of 22.6 MPG. You are curious as to whether the average in the present day is less than the historical value. What are the appropriate hypotheses for this test

Answers

Answer:

The appropriate null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: \mu = 22.6[/tex]

The appropriate alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_1: \mu < 22.6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The average car had a fuel economy of 22.6 MPG. Test if the current average is less than this.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the current average is still of 22.6 MPG, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 22.6[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the current mean has decreased, that is, if it is less than 22.6 MPG. So

[tex]H_1: \mu < 22.6[/tex]

What is the minimum sample size needed in order for the union to be confident that its estimate is within of

Answers

Answer:  the minimum sample size needed = 145

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for sample size:

[tex]Sample \ size =(\dfrac{z^*\times standard\ deviation}{margin \ of \ error})^2[/tex]

, where z* = Critical z-value

Given: Standard deviation = 2.15

Margin of error = 0.35

Z* for 95% confidence = 1.96

Sample size = [tex](\frac{1.96\times2.15}{0.35})^2[/tex]

Hence, the minimum sample size needed = 145

Can we conclude that the mean lifetime of the bulbs made by this manufacture differ from 51 months?

Answers

Answer:

We reject  H₀, and conclude thet the mean lifetime of the bulbs differ from 51 month

Step-by-step explanation:

Manufacturing process under control must produce items that follow a normal distribution.

Manufacturer information:

μ  =  51 months     mean lifetime

σ  =  7 months       standard deviation

Sample Information:

x  =  51 months

n  =  60

Confidence Interval  =  90 %

Then significance level  α  =  10 %  α  =  0.1    α/2  =  0,05

Since it is a manufacturing process the distribution is a normal distribution, and with   n = 60 we should use a Z test on two tails.

Then from z- table z(c) for  α = 0,05  is  z(c)  = 1.64

Hypothesis  Test:

Null Hypothesis                              H₀            x  =  μ

Alternative Hypothesis                  Hₐ            x ≠  μ

To calculate z statistics  z(s)

z(s)  =   (  x   -  μ )  / σ /√n

z(s)  =   (  53  -  51 ) / 7 /√60

z(s)  =  2 * 7.746 / 7

z(s)  = 2.213

Comparing  z(s)  and  z(c)

z(s)  >  z(c)   then  z(s)  is in the rejection region

We reject  H₀, and conclude thet the mean lifetime of the bulbs differ from 51 month

(B. B) is not the right answer because it represent a point, not a line (in math we use a singular capital letter to represent points)
