Daniel believes that people perform better in the barbell curl, on average, if they are encouraged by a coach. He recruited 29 subjects to participate in an experiment and randomly assigned them into two groups. Daniel gave one group verbal encouragement during the exercise and was quiet during the exercise for the other group. He recorded the total number of barbell curls each subject was able to complete before setting the bar down.

Explain the purpose of random assignment in this experiment.

Answers

Answer:

Define two roughly identical sets.

Reduce the chance of bias.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this experiment, Daniel performs a random assignment in order to stablish two separate groups with roughly equivalent ability to do barbell curls. Two different treatments (verbal encouragement and silence) are then applied in order to verify for a cause and effect relationship. If the groups were not randomly assigned, then the experiment could be biased.

Ms Davis is doing an activity with her statistic students where she gives them a 20 question multiple top choice test and they know none of the answers. Students need to guess on every question and each question has 5 possible choices, 1 of the which is correct.

What is the mean and standard deviation of the number of questions that each student gets correct?

Answers

Answer:

The mean and standard deviation of the number of questions that each student gets correct are 4 and 1.789 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the random variable X be defined as the number of correct answers marked by a student.

It is provided that each question has 5 possible choices, 1 of the which is correct.

Then the probability of marking thee correct option is:

[tex]P(X)=\frac{1}{5}=0.20[/tex]

There are a total of n = 20 questions to be answered.

As the students does not the answer to any question, they would be guessing for each question. This implies that for a random question, all the five options has the equal probability of being correct and each of the five options can be correct independently from the other.

All these information above indicates that the random variable X follows a Binomial distribution with parameters n = 20 and p = 0.20.

The mean and standard deviation of a Binomial distribution are:

[tex]\mu=np\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

Compute the mean and standard deviation of the random variable X as follows:

[tex]\mu=np=20\times 0.20=4\\\\\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}=\sqrt{20\times 0.20\times(1-0.20)}=1.789[/tex]

Thus, the mean and standard deviation of the number of questions that each student gets correct are 4 and 1.789 respectively.

The mean will be "4" and the standard deviation will "1.789".

According to the question,

The probability of making 3 correct options will be:

→ [tex]P(X) = \frac{1}{5}[/tex]

            [tex]= 0.20[/tex]

Total number of questions,

n = 20

As we know,

The mean will be:

→ [tex]\mu = np[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

     [tex]= 20\times 0.20[/tex]

     [tex]= 4[/tex]

and,

The standard deviation will be:

→ [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{np(1-p)}[/tex]

      [tex]= \sqrt{20\times 0.20\times (1-0.20)}[/tex]

      [tex]= 1.789[/tex]

Thus the responses above are correct.

To measure the height of the cloud cover at an airport, a worker shines a spotlight upward at an angle 75° from the horizontal. an observer at a distance d = 560 m away measures the angle of elevation to the spot of light to be 45°. find the height h of the cloud cover,

Answers

Answer:

The height of the cloud cover is 441.66 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = 560 m

The height of the cloud cover = h meters

According to the diagram, the worker stands at point R,

Let RT = x

tan 45⁰ = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{h}{x}[/tex]

therefore, 1 =  [tex]\frac{h}{x}[/tex], h = x

Then tan 75⁰ = [tex]\frac{h}{560-x}[/tex], substituting x = h, we have

3.732 = [tex]\frac{h}{560-h}[/tex]

3.732(560 - h) =  h

3.732 × 560 = 3.732h + h

2089.92 = 4.732h

h = 441.66 m

The height of the cloud cover is 228.62 meters

The given parameters are:

[tex]\mathbf{\alpha = 75^o}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{\theta = 45^o}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{d = 560m}[/tex]

See attachment for the image of the cloud cover.

From the attached image, we have the following sine ratios:

[tex]\mathbf{sin(75) = \frac hx}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{sin(45) = \frac h{560 - x}}[/tex]

Make h the subject in both equations

[tex]\mathbf{ h = xsin(75)}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ h = (560 - x) sin(45)}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{ xsin(75) = (560 - x) sin(45)}[/tex]

Open brackets

[tex]\mathbf{ xsin(75) = 560sin(45) - x sin(45)}[/tex]

Collect like terms

[tex]\mathbf{ xsin(75) + x sin(45)= 560sin(45) }[/tex]

Evaluate sine 45 and 75

[tex]\mathbf{ 0.9659x + 0.7071x= 560 \times 0.7071}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{ 1.673x= 395.976}[/tex]

Divide both sides by 1.673

[tex]\mathbf{ x= 236.69}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]\mathbf{ h = xsin(75)}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\mathbf{h = 236.69 \times 0.9659}[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{h = 228.618871}[/tex]

Approximate

[tex]\mathbf{h = 228.62}[/tex]

Hence, the height of the cloud cover is 228.62 meters

Subtracting by adding up 65-39

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to subtract by adding up 65-39, we need to add -39 to the value of 65. This can be rewritten in this way;

65+(-39)

The equation above is similar to the one given because the product of a minus and a plus sign will still give us back a minus sign.

on solving;

Gibbs Baby Food Company wishes to compare the weight gain of infants using its brand versus its competitor’s. A sample of 40 babies using the Gibbs products revealed a mean weight gain of 7.6 pounds in the first three months after birth. For the Gibbs brand, the population standard deviation of the sample is 2.3 pounds. A sample of 55 babies using the competitor’s brand revealed a mean increase in weight of 8.1 pounds. The population standard deviation is 2.9 pounds. At the .05 significance level, can we con- clude that babies using the Gibbs brand gained less weight? Compute the p-value and interpret it.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]z=\frac{(7.6-8.1)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{2.3^2}{40}+\frac{2.9^2}{55}}}}=-0.936[/tex]  

The p value can be founded with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-0.936)=0.175[/tex]  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level provided of 0.05 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean for the Gibbs brand is significantly lower than the true mean for the competitor

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

[tex]\bar X_{1}=7.6[/tex] represent the mean for Gibbs products

[tex]\bar X_{2}=8.1[/tex] represent the mean for the competitor

[tex]\sigma_{1}=2.3[/tex] represent the population standard deviation for Gibbs

[tex]\sigma_{2}=2.9[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for the competitor

[tex]n_{1}=40[/tex] sample size for the group Gibbs

[tex]n_{2}=55[/tex] sample size for the group competitor

[tex]\alpha=0.05[/tex] Significance level provided

z would represent the statistic

Hypothesis to verify

We want to check if babies using the Gibbs brand gained less weight, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:[tex]\mu_{1}-\mu_{2}=0[/tex]  

Alternative hypothesis:[tex]\mu_{1} - \mu_{2}< 0[/tex]  

The statistic would be given by:

[tex]z=\frac{(\bar X_{1}-\bar X_{2})-\Delta}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}}[/tex] (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

[tex]z=\frac{(7.6-8.1)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{2.3^2}{40}+\frac{2.9^2}{55}}}}=-0.936[/tex]  

The p value can be founded with this formula:

[tex]p_v =P(z<-0.936)=0.175[/tex]  

Since the p value is higher than the significance level provided of 0.05 we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean for the Gibbs brand is significantly lower than the true mean for the competitor

Answers

Answer:

  4 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

If corresponding sides have equal lengths, the triangles are congruent by the SSS postulate. They must have equal areas: 4 square units.

ΔDEF has an area of 4 square units.

Answer:

if the corresponding sides are equal the 2 triangles are congruent  ( by SSS) so their areas are the same.

Carpetland carpet installers incur an average cost of $300 for each carpet installed. Joan Chin, the firm’s vice president, proposes a new procedure for installations, which she hopes will be more efficient. Joan plans to run a trial and hopes that the results of a trial period will enable her to conclude with a level of significance of 0.05 that the new procedure reduces the average cost to install a carpet. If Joan's hypothesis test results in a Type II error, what would this mean?

Answers

Answer:

A Type II error happens when the null hypothesis failed to be rejected, although it is false and the alternative hypothesis is true.

In this context, would be that the test does not give enough evidence to support the claim that the new procedure reduces the average cost, although it really does reduces it.

The new procedure is effective, but the sample does not give enough evidence.
