The mean weight of newborn infants at a community hospital is 6.6 pounds. A sample of seven infants is randomly selected and their weights at birth are recorded as 9.0, 7.3, 6.0, 8.8, 6.8, 8.4, and 6.6 pounds. Does the sample data show a significant increase in the average birthrate at a 5% level of significance?
A. Fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude the mean is 6.6 lb.
B. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude the mean is lower than 6.6 lb.
C. Reject the null hypothesis and conclude the mean is greater than 6.6 lb.
D. Cannot calculate because the population standard deviation is unknown

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is  A

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  population is  [tex]\mu = 6.6[/tex]

     The level of significance is [tex]\alpha = 5\% = 0.05[/tex]

      The sample data is  9.0, 7.3, 6.0, 8.8, 6.8, 8.4, and 6.6 pounds

The Null hypothesis is [tex]H_o : \mu = 6.6[/tex]

 The Alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 6.6[/tex]

The critical value of the level of significance obtained from the normal distribution table is

                       [tex]Z_{\alpha } = Z_{0.05 } = 1.645[/tex]

Generally the sample mean is mathematically evaluated as

      [tex]\=x = \frac{\sum x_i }{n}[/tex]

substituting values

      [tex]\=x = \frac{9.0 + 7.3 + 6.0+ 8.8+ 6.8+ 8.4+6.6 }{7}[/tex]

      [tex]\=x = 7.5571[/tex]

The standard deviation is mathematically evaluated as

           [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum [ x - \= x ]}{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

          [tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{ [ 9.0-7.5571]^2 + [7.3 -7.5571]^2 + [6.0-7.5571]^2 + [8.8- 7.5571]^2 + [6.8- 7.5571]^2 + [8.4 - 7.5571]^2+ [6.6- 7.5571]^2 }{7} }[/tex][tex]\sigma = 1.1774[/tex]

Generally the test statistic is mathematically evaluated as

            [tex]t = \frac{\= x - \mu } { \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

substituting values

           [tex]t = \frac{7.5571 - 6.6 } { \frac{1.1774 }{\sqrt{7} } }[/tex]

            [tex]t = 1.4274[/tex]

Looking at the value of  t and  [tex]Z_{\alpha }[/tex]   we see that [tex]t < Z_{\alpha }[/tex] hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

  What this implies is that there is no sufficient evidence to state that the sample data show as significant increase in the average birth rate

The conclusion is that the mean is  [tex]\mu = 6.6 \ lb[/tex]

Express the product of z1 and z2 in standard form given that [tex]z_{1} = 6[cos(\frac{2\pi }{5}) + isin(\frac{2\pi }{5})][/tex] and [tex]z_{2} = 2\sqrt{2} [cos(\frac{-\pi }{2}) + isin(\frac{-\pi }{2})][/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Solution : 5.244 - 16.140i

Step-by-step explanation:

If we want to express the two as a product, we would have the following expression.

[tex]-6\left[\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)\right]\cdot 2\sqrt{2}\left[\cos \left(\frac{-\pi }{2}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{-\pi \:}{2}\right)\right][/tex]

Now we have two trivial identities that we can apply here,

( 1 ) cos(- π / 2) = 0,

( 2 ) sin(- π / 2) = - 1

Substituting them,

= [tex]-6\cdot \:2\sqrt{2}\left(0-i\right)\left(\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+i\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)\right)[/tex]

= [tex]-12\sqrt{2}\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)+12\sqrt{2}\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)i[/tex]

Again we have another two identities we can apply,

( 1 ) sin(x) = cos(π / 2 - x )

( 2 ) cos(x) = sin(π / 2 - x )

[tex]\sin \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)=\cos \left(\frac{\pi }{2}-\frac{2\pi }{5}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]

[tex]\cos \left(\frac{2\pi }{5}\right)=\sin \left(\frac{\pi }{2}-\frac{2\pi }{5}\right) = \frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4}[/tex]

Substitute,

[tex]-12\sqrt{2}(\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}}{4}) + 12\sqrt{2}(\frac{\sqrt{2}\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}}}{4})[/tex]

= [tex]-6\sqrt{5+\sqrt{5}}+6\sqrt{3-\sqrt{5}} i[/tex]

= [tex]-16.13996 + 5.24419i[/tex]

= [tex]5.24419i - 16.13996[/tex]

As you can see option d is the correct answer. 5.24419 is rounded to 5.244, and 16.13996 is rounded to 16.14.

If SSR is 2592 and SSE is 608, then A. the standard error would be large. B. the coefficient of determination is .23. C. the slope is likely to be insignificant. D. the coefficient of determination is .81.

Answers

Answer:

D. the coefficient of determination is .81.

Step-by-step explanation:

SST = SSE + SSR

where

SST is the summation of square total

SSE is the summation of squared error estimate = 608

SSR is the summation of square of residual = 2593

with these in mind we put the values into the formula

= 2592 + 608

=3200

Coefficient of determination = SSR/SST

= 2592/3200

= 0.81

Therefore option D is the correct answer to the question.

Answers

Answer:

Student t-distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this scenario, a test is being conducted to test the difference between two population "means" using data that are gathered from a matched pairs experiment. If the paired differences are normal, then the distribution used for testing is the student t-distribution.

In Statistics and probability, a student t-distribution can be defined as the probability distribution which can be used to estimate population parameters when the population variance is not known (unknown) and the sample population is relatively small. The student t-distribution is a statistical distribution which was published in 1908 by William Sealy Gosset.

A student t-distribution has a similar curve with the normal distribution curve, except that it is fatter and a little bit shorter.

Sodas in a can are supposed to contain an average 12 oz. This particular brand has a standard deviation of 0.1 oz, with an average of 12.1 oz. If the can’s contents follow a Normal distribution, what is the probability that the mean contents of a six-pack are less than 12 oz?

Answers

Answer:

The probability is  [tex]P(X < 12) = 0.99286[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

        The population mean is [tex]\mu = 12 \ oz[/tex]

         The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.1 \ oz[/tex]

          The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 12.1 \ oz[/tex]

          The sample size is  n = 6 packs

   

The standard error of the mean is mathematically represented as

              [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

            [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = \frac{0.1}{\sqrt{6} }[/tex]

            [tex]\sigma_{\= x } = 0.0408[/tex]

Given that the can’s contents follow a Normal distribution then then  the probability that the mean contents of a six-pack are less than 12 oz is mathematically represented as

         [tex]P(X < 12) = P ( \frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma_{\= x }} < \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \sigma_{\= x }} )[/tex]

Generally  [tex]\frac{X - \mu }{ \sigma_{ \= x }} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ X )[/tex]

So

         [tex]P(X < 12) = P ( Z < \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \sigma_{\= x }} )[/tex]

substituting values

       [tex]P(X < 12) = P ( Z < \frac{12.2 -12 }{0.0408} )[/tex]

      [tex]P(X < 12) = P ( Z < 2.45 )[/tex]

From the normal distribution table the value of [tex]P ( Z < 2.45 )[/tex] is  

           [tex]P (Z < 2.45)0.99286[/tex]

=>   [tex]P(X < 12) = 0.99286[/tex]

Determine the point estimate of the population proportion and the margin of error for the following confidence interval.Lower boundequals0.212​,upper boundequals0.758​,nequals1200The point estimate of the population proportion is . 485.​(Round to the nearest thousandth as​ needed.)The margin of error is 0.273.​(Round to the nearest thousandth as​ needed.)

Answers

Answer: The point estimate of the population proportion is . 485.​

The margin of error is 0.273.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval for population proportion(p):

sample proportion ± Margin of error

Given:  Lower bound of confidence interval  = 0.212

Upper bound = 0.758

⇒sample proportion - Margin of error=0.212  (i)

sample proportion + Margin of error= 0.758  (ii)

Adding (i) and (ii) , we get

2(sample proportion) =0.970

⇒ sample proportion = 0.970÷2= 0.485

Since sample proportion is the point estimate of the population proportion.

So, the point estimate of the population proportion=  0.485

Now put sample proportion =0.485 in (ii), we get

0.485+ Margin of error= 0.758

⇒  Margin of error= 0.758 - 0.485 =0.273

i.e. The margin of error is 0.273.​

the log to the base 3 of 14 is 2.402

Step-by-step explanation:

You must find a way to indicate that 3 is the base; you cannot run this '3' together with 2, 7 or 14.

Example:  

log to the base 3 of 2 = 0.631

log to the base 3 of 7 = 1.771

Note that 2 times 7 is 14.  Thus, to obtain the log to the base 3 of 14, we must ADD the two logs shown above:

0.631

+1.771

----------

2.402

Thus, the log to the base 3 of 14 is 2.402.

Find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p. n = 50 p = 0.2

Answers

Answer:

The mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution are 10, 8, and 2.83 respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of the binomial distribution with the given values of n and p, i.e; n = 50 p = 0.2.

Let X = binomial random variable

So, X ~ Binom(n = 50, p = 0.2)

Now, the mean of the binomial distribution is given by;

         Mean of X, E(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p

                                    = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 = 10

Now, the variance of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Variance of X, V(X) = n [tex]\times[/tex] p [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - p)

                                         = 50 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.2 [tex]\times[/tex] (1 - 0.2)

                                         = 10 [tex]\times[/tex] 0.8 = 8

Also, the standard deviation of the binomial distribution is given by;

        Standard deviation of X, S.D.(X) = [tex]\sqrt{\text{n} \times \text{p} \times (1 - \text{p})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{\text{50} \times \text{0.2} \times (1 - \text{0.2})}[/tex]

                                                              = [tex]\sqrt{8}[/tex] = 2.83

14 students => B

17 students => A

Total number of students = 45

Step 2: Express each category of students who scored a particular grade as a fraction and as percentage.

9 students => D => [tex] \frac{9}{45} = \frac{1}{5} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{1}{5} * 100 = 20 percent [/tex]

5 students => C => [tex] \frac{5}{45} = \frac{1}{9} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{1}{9} * 100 = 11.1 percent [/tex]

14 students => B => [tex] \frac{14}{45} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{14}{45} * 100 = 31.1 percent [/tex]

17 students => A => [tex] \frac{17}{45} [/tex] => as percentage, we have [tex] \frac{17}{45} * 100 = 37.8 percent [/tex]

Step 3: Check each statement to see if they are true or not based on the calculations above.

Statement 1: "⅕ of the students earned a C."

This is NOT TRUE From our calculation, ⅑ of the students earned a C.

Statement 2: "3% more students earned an A than a B." This is also NOT TRUE.

37.8% earned A, while 31.1% earned a B. Thus, about 6.7% more students earned an A than a B.

Statement 3: "20% of the class earned a D".  This is TRUE.

Check calculation in step 2.

Statement 4: "¼ of the class earned a B". This is NOT TRUE.

¼ is 25% of the class. Those who earned a B account for 31.1% not 25% (¼ of the class).

The correct statement is: "20% of the class earned a D"

Four couples are at a party. Four of the eight people are randomly selected to win a prize. No person can win more than one prize. What is the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes? Express your answer as common fraction.

Answers

Answer:

27/35

Step-by-step explanation:

We use combination to solve for this

C(n, r), =nCr = n!/r!(n - r)!

From the question, we are told that:

Four couples are at a party. Four of the eight people are randomly selected to win a prize.

Four couples = 8 people.

= 8C4 = 8!/4! (8 - 4)!

= 70

No person can win more than one prize. ( No person can win more than one prize of the 4 people selected)

This can happen in 4 ways

[4C1 × 3C2 ] × 4=

[4!/1! ×( 4 - 1)!] × [3!/2! ×(3-2)!] × 4 ways

= 4 × 3 × 4 ways

= 48

The probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes

48 + 4C2/ 8C4

4C2 = 4!/2!(4 - 2) !

= 6

8C4 = 8C4 = 8!/4! (8 - 4)!

= 70

48 + 6/ 70

= 54/70

= 27/35

Therefore, the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes is 27/35.

The probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes is 27/35 and this can be determined by using the given data.

Given :

Four couples are at a party. Four of the eight people are randomly selected to win a prize. No person can win more than one prize.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes:

Step 1 - The concept of probability is used in order to determine the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes.

Step 2 - According to the given data, the total number of people is 8.

Step 3 - So, the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes is:

[tex]\rm P =\dfrac{ \;^4C_1\times \;^3C_2\times 4 + \;^4C_2}{\;^8C_4}[/tex]

Step 4 - Simplify the above expression.

[tex]\rm P =\dfrac{48+ 6}{70}[/tex]

[tex]\rm P = \dfrac{27}{35}[/tex]

So, the probability that both of the members of at least one couple win prizes is 27/35.

A sample of 81 observations is taken from a normal population with a standard deviation of 5. The sample mean is 40. Determine the 95% confidence interval for the population mean.

Answers

Answer:

38.911≤p≤41.089

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for calculating confidence interval for a population mean us as shown below;

CI = xbar ± Z×S/√N where;

xbar is the sample mean = 40

Z is the z score at 95% confidence interval = 1.96

S is the standard deviation = 5

N is the sample size = 81

Substituting this parameters in the formula we have;

CI = 40±1.96×5/√81

CI = 40±(1.96×5/9)

CI = 40±(1.96×0.556)

CI = 40±1.089

CI = (40-1.089, 40+1.089)

CI = (38.911, 41.089)

The 95% confidence interval for the population mean is 38.911≤p≤41.089

Answer:

38.9 ≤ U ≤ 41.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean, m = 40; standard deviation, α = 5; Confidence limit, U = 95% or 0.95

N = 81

The standard error, α(m) = α/√(N) = 5/√81 =5/9

Using table: 0.95 = 0.0379

Z(0.95) = 2 - 0.0379 = 1.9621 or 1.96

Hence, confidence interval = { m - 1.96(α/√N) ≤ U ≤ m +1.96(α/√N)}

But, 1.96(α/√N) = 1.96 X 5/9 = 1.96 X 0.56 = 1.1

(40 - 1.1 ≤ U ≤ 40 + 1.1)

∴ the confidence interval = 38.9 ≤ U ≤ 41.1
