Two different weight loss programs are being compared to determine their effectiveness. Ten men were assigned to each program (that is, a total of 20 men altogether). Their weight losses (in lbs), after a period of time, are recorded below. We are interested in determining which, if any, of the diets is more effective in terms of average weight loss. Assume weight loss for each diet to be normally distributed.
Diet 1 3.4 10.9 2.8 7.8 0.9 5.2 2.5 10.5 7.1 7.5
Diet 2 11.9 13.1 11.6 6.8 6.8 8.8 12.5 8.6 17.5 10.3
Carry out an appropriate test using a significance level of 0.10.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

WE reject the Null and conclude that one of the drug is more effective than the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Diet 1 3.4 10.9 2.8 7.8 0.9 5.2 2.5 10.5 7.1 7.5

Diet 2 11.9 13.1 11.6 6.8 6.8 8.8 12.5 8.6 17.5 10.3

This is a matched pair sample :

The hypothesis :

H0 : μd = 0

H1 : μd ≠ 0

Hence, we intun the difference between the two groups of value :

Difference, d = -8.9,-2.2,-8.8,1,-5.9,-3.6,-10,1.9,-10.4,-2.8

The test statistic :

dbar ÷ (Sd/√n)

dbar = mean of difference = Σd / n = - 49.7 / 10 = - 4.97

Standard deviation of difference, Sd = 4.51

Test statistic :

-4.97 ÷ (4.51/√10)

Test statistic = - 3.485

The sample size, n = 10

df = n - 1 ; 10 - 1 = 9

Critical value (0.10, 9) = 1.833

If Test statistic > |Critical value |

Since 3.486 > 1.833 ; WE reject the Null and conclude that one of the drug is more effective than the other

10. In a group of 50 people, there are two types of professionals, engineers and managers. If 36 of them are engineers and 24 of them are managers, how many persons are both managers and engineers?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

The photo above is the Venn diagram

Now, the number of persons that are both managers and engineers= n

Since, Total number of persons is 50

Therefore, 50= M+n+E

M only = 36-n

E only = 24-n

Therefore, 50= 36 - n + n + 24 - n

50 = 36+24-n

50 = 60 - n

60 - n = 50

-n = 50 - 60

-n = - 10

Therefore, n = 10

Therefore, the number of persons that are both Managers and Engineers is 10persons.

John has a cylindrical propane tank that measures 8" in diameter and 8" tall If John
buys a new cylindrical propane tank that is twice as wide and half as tall as his
current tank, how much larger will the volume of the new tank be?

Answers

Answer:

2 times as large

Step-by-step explanation:

For the original cylinder, we can say that the volume of a cylinder is equal to V= πr²h. For this cylinder, we can say that  V = π * radius² * height. The radius is equal to 1/2 of the diameter, so the original radius is 8/2 = 4. Therefore, the volume of the original cylinder is V = π * radius² * height = π * 4² * 8 = π * 16 * 8 = π * 128

For the new cylinder, "twice as wide" means that the diameter is twice as big as the original one. Half the height means that the height is halved. The new diameter is therefore 8 * 2 = 16 (meaning that the new radius is 16/2=8) while the new height is 8/2 = 4. The new volume is thus

V = π * radius² * height = π * 8² * 4 = π * 64 * 4 = π * 256

To see how much larger the new tank volume is, we can divide (new tank volume) by (old tank volume), resulting in

π * 256 / (π *128) = 2

Use ! = 5% and assume that the number of TVs in Rocklin households is normally distributed.

Answers

Answer:

There isn't enough evidence to indicate that the mean number of TVs in Rocklin households is higher than the reported national average .

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a one sample mean test ;

H0 : μ = 2.7

H1 : μ > 2.7

Given the data :

2, 3, 3, 1, 2, 5, 3, 4, 1, 2, 4, 3

Sample size, n = 12

The sample mean, xbar = ΣX / n = 33/12 = 2.75

The sample standard deviation, s = 1.215 ( from calculator)

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

T = (2.75 - 2.7) ÷ (1.215/√(12))

T = 0.05 / 0.3507402

T = 0.1426

The critical value from Tscore ;

df = 12 - 1 = 11

Critical value = 1.796

Since ; Test statistic < Critical value ;WE fail to reject the Null and conclude that there isn't enough evidence to indicate that the mean number of TVs in Rocklin households is higher than the reported national average

The mean length of time, per week, that students at a certain school spend on their homework is 24.3 hours, with a standard deviation of 1.4 hours. Assuming the distribution of study times is normal, what percent of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 68% of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Empirical Rule states that, for a normally distributed random variable:

Approximately 68% of the measures are within 1 standard deviation of the mean.

Approximately 95% of the measures are within 2 standard deviations of the mean.

Approximately 99.7% of the measures are within 3 standard deviations of the mean.

In this problem, we have that:

Mean of 24.3 hours, standard deviation of 1.4 hours.

What percent of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours?

22.9 = 24.3 - 1.4

25.7 = 24.3 + 1.4

Within 1 standard deviation of the mean, so:

Approximately 68% of students study between 22.9 and 25.7 hours.

How many minutes will the bus take to complete the trip If a bus completes half a trip at 40 km per hour and the other half at 50 20. if the whole trip was 60 k.m. ?​

Answers

Answer:

The bus will take 81 minutes to complete the trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how many minutes will the bus take to complete the trip if a bus completes half a trip at 40 km per hour and the other half at 50 km per hour, and the whole trip was 60 km, the following calculation must be performed:

60/2 = 30

30/40 = 3/4 of an hour = 45 minutes

30/50 = 3/5 of an hour = 36 minutes

45 + 36 = 81

In the following problem, the ratios are directly proportional. Find the missing variable.
If y1 = 4, x2 = 6, and y2 = 8, what is the value of x1?

Answers

Answer:

x1 = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

first set up the proportion (write as fractions):

(y1/x1) = (y2/x2)

then fill in the variables:

4/x1 = 8/6

now cross multiply:

8 • x1 = 6 • 4

simple algebra:

8 • x1 = 24

x1 = 24/8

x1 = 3

If y1 = 4, x2 = 6, and y2 = 8, then the value of x1 is 3 which we can solve using ratios.

In a directly proportional relationship, the ratios between the corresponding values of two variables remain constant. This constant ratio is often referred to as the "proportionality constant."

In this problem, you have two pairs of values: (x1, y1) and (x2, y2). We're given that the ratios are directly proportional, which means:

x1 / y1 = x2 / y2

Plugging in the given values:

x1 / 4 = 6 / 8

Now, cross-multiply to solve for x1:

x1 * 8 = 4 * 6

x1 = 24 / 8

x1 = 3

Therefore, the value of x1 is 3.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

2., 3., 4., 5.

yes, you had the right idea to calculate the half distances between the coordinates. just create the absolute values of the full distance before cutting it in half.

you need to remember : we have to go this half distance from one point to the other (meaning adding our subtracting the half distance to/from the starting point).

2.

(-4, 6) to (10, -10)

in x the distance is 10 - -4 = 14. half is 7.

in y the distance is |-10 - 6| = |-16| = 16. half is 8.

so the midpoint is

(-4 + 7, 6 - 8) = (3, -2)

remember, to go the half distance in the direction towards the second point (so we have to choose properly, when to use "+" and "-" depending on the change of the coordinate : from -4 to 10 we have to add, from 6 to -10 we have to subtract, of course).

3.

(-3, -8) to (-6.5, -4.5)

in x distance : -3 - -6.5 = 3.5. half is 1.75

in y distance : -8 - -4.5 = |-3.5| = 3.5. half is 1.75

midpoint is

(-3 - 1.75, -8 + 1.75) = (-4.75, -6.25)

4.

(3, 7) to (-8, -10)

x : 3 - -8 = 11. half is 5.5

y : 7 - -10 = 17. half is 8.5

midpoint is

(3 - 5.5, 7 - 8.5) = (-2.5, -1.5)

5.

(-6, -13) to (-6.4, -3.8)

x : -6 - -6.4 = 0.4. half is 0.2

y : -13 - -3.8 = |-9.2| = 9.2. half is 4.6

midpoint is

(-6 - 0.2, -13 + 4.6) = (-6.2, -8.4)

6.

(-1, 7) to (5, 1)

x : -1 - 5 = |-6| = 6. 1/3 is 2.

y : 7 - 1 = 6. 1/3 is 2.

1/3 from C to D

(-1 + 2, 7 - 2) = (1, 5)

7.

2/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 6. (1/3 from C to D).

again

(1, 5)

8.

2/3 of the way from C to D.

so, we need to double what we added in 6.

(-1 + 4, 7 - 4) = (3, 3)

9.

1/3 of the way from D to C is the same point as in 8. (2/3 of the way from C to D).

(6, 8) to (-1, 8)

distance = sqrt((6 - -1)² + (8 - 8)²) = sqrt(49) = 7

12.

(5, -6) to (5, 6)

sqrt((5-5)² + (-6-6)²) = sqrt(144) = 12

13.

(-2, 0) to (11, 0)

sqrt((-2 - 11)² + (0-0)²) = sqrt(169) = 13

14.

(1, -5) to (9, 1)

sqrt((1-9)² + (-5 - 1)²) = sqrt(64 + 36) = sqrt(100) = 10

ST and MT are basically the same equation.

MT is half of ST.

ST equation based on 2 points :

y – yS={(yT – yS)/(xT – xS)}(x – xS)

M = (xS + (xT - xS)/2, yS +(yT - yS)/2)

so, let's put that into the general equation :

y - yM={(yT - yM)/(xT - xM)}(x - xM)

y - (yS +(yT - yS)/2) = {(yT - (yS +(yT - yS)/2))/(xT - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))}(x - (xS + (xT - xS)/2))

16.

the two corners farthest away are (5, 10) and (9, 6).

what distance from (0, 0) is now bigger ?

since it is (0, 0), we can skip the 0s and just sum up the squares of the coordinates.

5² + 10² = 125

9² + 6² = 117

so, the corner (5, 10) is the farthest away.

The mean output of a certain type of amplifier is 102102 watts with a standard deviation of 1212 watts. If 6363 amplifiers are sampled, what is the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.43.4 watts

Answers

Answer:

0.0244 = 2.44% probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, we need to understand the normal probability distribution and the central limit theorem.

Normal Probability Distribution

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem establishes that, for a normally distributed random variable X, with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the sampling distribution of the sample means with size n can be approximated to a normal distribution with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex].

For a skewed variable, the Central Limit Theorem can also be applied, as long as n is at least 30.

Mean of 102, standard deviation of 12:

This means that [tex]\mu = 102, \sigma = 12[/tex]

Sample of 63:

This means that [tex]n = 63, s = \frac{12}{\sqrt{63}}[/tex]

What is the probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts?

Below 102 - 3.4 = 98.6 or above 102 + 3.4 = 105.4. Since the normal distribution is symmetric, these probabilities are equal, and thus, we find one of them and multiply by two.

Probability the mean is below 98.6.

p-value of Z when X = 98.6. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

By the Central Limit Theorem

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{98.6 - 102}{\frac{12}{\sqrt{63}}}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.25[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.25[/tex] has a p-value of 0.0122.

2*0.0122 = 0.0244

0.0244 = 2.44% probability that the mean of the sample would differ from the population mean by greater than 3.4 watts.
