A professor has been teaching introductory statistics for many years and the final exam performance has been very consistent from class to class and the scores have been normally distributed. Overall, the whole data base (i.e. population) of final scores has a mean (μ) of 24 points (out of a maximum of 30 points) and a standard deviation (Ï) of 5 points. The professor would like to revise the course design to see if student performance on the final could be improved.

The new course design was implemented in the most recent academic year. There were 100 students and the average final exam score was 24.7. The professor would like to run a hypothesis test to see if this sample of students in the recent academic year performed significantly better than the past population. In other words, the hypothesis was a comparison between the population taking the course with the new design (represented by the sample of 100 students) with the population taking the course with the old design. The professor is predicting an increase of final score with the new design, so the hypotheses should be directional, and the test should be one-tailed. The significance level is set at α = .1.

Required:
a. Identify the dependent variable for this study.
b. State the null hypothesis and alternative hypothesis using both words and symbol notation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Independent variable - Design of the course

Dependent variable - Final score of the students

b)  H0 - Final score >24.7

Alternate hypothesis - Final score is less than or equal to 24.7

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Independent variable - Design of the course

Dependent variable - Final score of the students

b) Null Hypothesis : Performance of student taking course with the new design is better as compared to the population of student taking the course with the old design.

H0 - Final score >24.7

Alternate hypothesis - Final score is less than or equal to 24.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial point the beginning of the point and the point where the horizontal distance covered is 15 ft are the two points needed to calculate the average rate of change required.

From the graph,

Initial point = (0, 80)

The point of the slide when distance covered is 15 ft = (15, 10)

These are the points needed.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Split both the prisms apart- In doing so, you can simplify the problem.

2. Put in the #'s for the formula which in this case is V=L*W*H, we will start with the formula for the front one, V=7*8*1 or V=7*8

3. answer for the front is 56 cubic in, now we solve for the other half.

4. V=9*1*90 or V=9*90 which is 6480 cubic in.

5. add 6480 and 56 and your answer is 6536 cubic in as your answer.

what are the first five terms of the recursive sequence

Answers

Answer: Choice D

9, 30, 93, 282, 849

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

Explanation:

The notation [tex]a_1 = 9[/tex] tells us that the first term is 9

The notation [tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3[/tex] says that we multiply the (n-1)st term by 3, then add on 3 to get the nth term [tex]a_n[/tex]

So if we wanted the second term for instance, then we'd say

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{2-1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(a_{1})+3\\\\a_2 = 3*(9)+3\\\\a_2 = 27+3\\\\a_2 = 30\\\\[/tex]

If we want the third term, then,

[tex]a_n = 3*(a_{n-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{3-1})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(a_{2})+3\\\\a_3 = 3*(30)+3\\\\a_3 = 90+3\\\\a_3 = 93\\\\[/tex]

and so on.

The terms so far are: 9, 30, 93

You should find the fourth and fifth terms are 282 and 849 respectively if you keep this pattern going.

Therefore, the answer is choice D

Trigonometry help please? I need the three answers

Answers

Answer:

Both triangles are triangle rectangles, but the triangles are not similar.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the Pythagorean's theorem, we know that for a triangle rectangle the sum of the squares of the cathetus is equal to the square of the hypotenuse.

Where the cathetus are always the two sides of smaller length.

We also know that two figures are similar if all the correspondent sides are proportional to each other, this means that the figures have the same shape but different size.

First, for triangle A the measures of the sides are:

48, 55, 73

Here the two catheti are 48 and 55, and the hypotenuse is 73.

Then to answer the first question we need to try to apply the Pythagorean's theorem, we should have:

48^2 + 55^2 = 73^2

solving that we get:

5,329 = 5,329

This is true, thus triangle A is a triangle rectangle.

Now for triangle B the measures are: 36, 77 and 85.

So the catheti are 36 and 77, and the hypotenuse is 85

So to check if triangle B is a triangle rectangle the equation:

36^2 + 77^2 = 85^2

must be true, solving both sides we get:

7,225 = 7,225

This is true, so triangle B is a triangle rectangle.

Finally, to check if the figures are similar we need to compare the correspondent sides of both triangles, such that the quotient of correspondent sides must be always the same.

For the hypotenuses, if we compute:

(hypotenuse B)/(Hypotenuse A) we get:

85/73 = 1.16

Now if we do the same for the two smaller catheti we get:

36/48 = 0.75

The quotients are different, thus the triangles are not similar.

Write the phrase as an algebraic expression and simplify if possible. Let x represent the unknown number

Three times a number, decreased by five

(Simplify your answer.)

Answers

EZ,
3x-5
(3x) = 3 times a number.
Decrease means subtract.

To express the phrase "Three times a number, decreased by five" as an algebraic expression, we can use the variable x to represent the unknown number: 3x - 5

Now, let's simplify this expression: Given that the unknown number is represented by x, we can substitute it into the expression above. Substituting x into the expression, we have: [tex]3(x) - 5 3x - 5[/tex] Therefore, the algebraic expression representing "Three times a number, decreased by five" is [tex]3x - 5.[/tex] At this point, there is no further simplification possible since the expression is already in its simplest form.

For example, let's assume the unknown number x is 7. We can plug in this value to evaluate the expression: [tex]3(7) - 5 = 21 - 5 = 16[/tex] Similarly, if x is -2, the calculation would be: [tex]3(-2) - 5 = -6 - 5 = -11[/tex] In conclusion, the algebraic expression 3x - 5 represents the phrase "Three times a number, decreased by five."

The side length of dilated cubes is 10.08 units. Then the surface area of the dilated cube is 609.6384 square units.

What is dilation?

Dilation means the changing of the size of the object without changing the shape. The size of the object may be increased or decreased based on the scale factor.

A solid has a volume of 2 cubic units and a surface area of 10 square units.

The solid is dilated, and the image has a volume of 128 cubic units.

Let the original side length of the cube be a and dilated length of the cube be b.

The value of a will be

[tex]a^3 = 2\\\\a \ = 1.26[/tex]

Then the ratio of their volume will be

[tex]\rm \dfrac{b^3}{a^3} = \dfrac{Dilated \ volume }{Original \ volume }\\\\\\\dfrac{b^3}{a^3} = \dfrac{128}{2}\\\\\\\dfrac{b^3}{a^3} = 64\\\\\\\dfrac{b}{1.26} = 8\\\\\\b \ = 10.08[/tex]

Then the surface area of the dilated cube will be

[tex]\rm Dilated \ surface \ area = 6 *10.08^2\\\\Dilated \ surface \ area = 6*101.6064\\\\Dilated \ surface \ area = 609.6384 \ square \ units[/tex]
