Weatherwise magazine is published in association with the American Meteorological Society. Volume 46, Number 6 has a rating system to classify Nor'easter storms that frequently hit New England states and can cause much damage near the ocean coast. A severe storm has an average peak wave height of 16.4 feet for waves hitting the shore. Suppose that a Nor'easter is in progress at the severe storm class rating.
(A) Let us say that we want to set up a statistical test to see if the wave action (i.e., height) is dying down or getting worse. What would be the null hypothesis regarding average wave height?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ > 16.4.
c) μ = 16.4.
d) μ ≠ 16.4.
(B) If you wanted to test the hypothesis that the storm is getting worse, what would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ = 16.4.
c) μ ≠ 16.4.
d) μ > 16.4.
(C) If you wanted to test the hypothesis that the waves are dying down, what would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ < 16.4.
b) μ ≠ 16.4.
c) μ > 16.4.
d) μ = 16.4.
(D) Suppose you do not know if the storm is getting worse or dying out. You just want to test the hypothesis that the average wave height is different (either higher or lower) from the severe storm class rating. What would you use for the alternate hypothesis?
a) μ > 16.4.
b) μ = 16.4.
c) μ ≠ 16.4.
d) μ < 16.4.
(E) For each of the tests in parts (b), (c), and (d), would the area corresponding to the P-value be on the left, on the right, or on both sides of the mean?
a) left; right; both.
b) left; both; right.
c) both; left; right.
d) right; left; both.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

a)  c) μ = 16.4.

b)  d) μ > 16.4.

c) a) μ < 16.4.

d) c) μ ≠ 16.4.

e)  d) right; left; both.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

Test if it is getting worse, so at the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, but at the null hypothesis we test if it is still of 16.4 options, so option C.

Question b:

At the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, as said above, so the answer is given by option d.

Question c:

Dying down, so if the mean is lower than 16.4 inches, so option a.

Question d:

Don't know, so just test if it is different, which includes both lower or greater, so the correct answer is given by option c.

Question e:

Test if more -> right, so on question b) is a right tailed test.

Test if less -> left, so on question c) is a left tailed test.

Different -> both sides, so on question d) it is a two-tailed test.

Thus the correct answer is given by option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent samples t test also called the paired t test are employed in statistical analysis when sample measurement in a certain group is to be paired with the sample measurement on the other group. This is possible because the samples used in the two groups are usually the same. Hence, pairing the samples is feasible in this case. This is different from independent t test as the samples in the groups are entirely different and distinct. Hence, giving no chance to match the samples together. In the scenario described above, the same 20 people(samples) formed the same group of measurement.

For a confidence level of 88%, find the critical value for a normally distributed variable. The sample mean is normally distributed if the population standard deviation is known.

Answers

Answer:

z = ±  0.772193214

Step-by-step explanation:

Hence, the critical value for a [tex]88[/tex]% confidence level is [tex]z=1.56[/tex].

What is the standard deviation?

Standard deviation is the degree of dispersion or the scatter of the data points relative to its mean, in descriptive statistics.

It tells how the values are spread across the data sample and it is the measure of the variation of the data points from the mean.

Here given that,

For a confidence level of  [tex]88[/tex]%, find the critical value for a normally distributed variable.

Let us assume that the standard normal distribution having a mean is [tex]0[/tex] and the standard deviation is [tex]1[/tex].

As the significance level is [tex]1[/tex] - confidence interval

Confidence interval is [tex]\frac{80}{100}=0.88[/tex]

i.e., [tex]1-0.88=0.12[/tex]

For the two sided confidence interval the confidence level is [tex]0.44[/tex].

Now, the standard normal probability table the critical value for the  [tex]88[/tex]% confidence level is [tex]1.56[/tex].

Hence, the critical value for a [tex]88[/tex]% confidence level is [tex]z=1.56[/tex].

Nine children are to be divided into an A team, a B team and a C team of 3 each. The A team will play in one league, the B team in another, the C team in a third league. How many different divisions are possible

Answers

Answer:

The answer is "840".

Step-by-step explanation:

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team A  by 9 children:

[tex]= ^{9_{C_{3}}\\\\\\[/tex]

[tex]=\frac{9!}{3! \times 6!} \\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7\times 6!}{3 \times 2\times 1\times 6!}\\\\=\frac{9\times 8\times 7}{3 \times 2\times 1}\\\\=\frac{3\times 4\times 7}{1}\\\\=\frac{84}{1}\\\\=84[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team B  by remaining 6 children:

 [tex]= ^{6}_{C_{3}}[/tex]

[tex]= \frac{6!}{(3! \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{6\times 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{(3\times 2\times 1 \times 3!)}\\\\= \frac{ 5 \times 4 \times 3!}{3!}\\\\= 5 \times 4 \\\\=20[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which selecting a team C  by remaining 3 children:

[tex]= ^{3}_{C_{3}}\\\\=\frac{3!}{3!}\\\\= 1[/tex]

Following are the number of ways in which making 3 teams by 9 children:

[tex]= \frac{(84 \times 20 \times 1)}{3!}\\\\= \frac{(84 \times 20 )}{6}\\\\= 14 \times 20\\\\= 280\\\\[/tex]

(Note: we've split by 3! Because it also is necessary to implement three teams between themselves)

Now 3 leagues have to be played. One is going to be run by each team.

That is the way it is

Different possible divisions

[tex]= 280 \times 3!\\\\= 280 \times (3 \times 2 \times 1)\\\\= 840[/tex]

[tex]g(x) = 6x^2 + 7x - 8[/tex]

Required

[tex](f + g)(4)[/tex]

First, calculate [tex](f + g)(x)[/tex]

A light bulb's brightness is reduced when placed behind a screen. The amount of visible light produced by the light bulb decreases by 25% with
each additional layer that is added to the screen. With no screen, the light bulb produces 750 lumens. The lumen is a unit for measuring the total
quantity of visible light emitted by a source,
Select the correct equation that can be used to represent the lumens, L, after x screen layers are added.

Answers

Answer:

D. 750(0.75)ˣ

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the new brightness be L'. Since our initial brightness L₀ reduces by 25 %, we have that L' = L₀ - 25% of L₀

L' = L₀ - 0.25L₀

L' = 0.75L₀

Adding the second screen, the new intensity is L" = L' - 25 % of L'  

L" = L' - 0.25 L'

L" = 0.75L'.

Since L' = 0.75L₀,

L" = 0.75L' = 0.75(0.75L₀) = 0.75²L₀

Adding the third screen, the new intensity is L"' = L'' - 25 % of L''  

L'" = L" - 0.25 L"

L"' = 0.75L".

Since L" = 0.75L' = 0.75²L₀

L"' = 0.75L" = 0.75(0.75²L₀) = 0.75³L₀

So, we see a pattern here.

The intensity after x screens is L = (0.75)ˣL₀

Since L₀ = 750 lumens,

L = 750(0.75)ˣ

For this problem what I did was add all the measurements and I got 48 m. However, it is wrong. How do I go about solving the perimeter then?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  66 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all of the sides. There are two side measures that are missing from the diagram.

The missing horizontal measure is ...

  17 m - 8 m = 9 m

The missing vertical measure is ...

  16m -7 m = 9 m.

If you add these to the sum you already calculated, you will get the correct answer:

  48 m + 9 m + 9 m = 66 m . . . perimeter of the figure

_____

If you're paying attention, you see that the sum of the measures of the two shorter horizontal segments is the same as the measure of the longer horizontal segment. Likewise, the sum of the measurements of the two shorter vertical segments is the same as that of the longer vertical segment.

In other words, the perimeter of this (and any) L-shaped figure is the same as the perimeter of a rectangle having the same horizontal and vertical dimensions as the long sides of the figure.

  P = 2(17 m +16 m) = 2(33 m) = 66 m

A university found that 25% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course. Assume that 30 students registered for the course.Use Microsoft Excel whenever necessary and answer the following questions:Compute the probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw

Answers

Answer:

0.0106 = 1.06% probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw

Step-by-step explanation:

For each student, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they withdraw, or they do not. The probability of an student withdrawing is independent of any other student, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

25% of its students withdraw without completing the introductory statistics course.

This means that [tex]p = 0.25[/tex]

Assume that 30 students registered for the course.

This means that [tex]n = 30[/tex]

Compute the probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw:

This is:

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{30,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{30} = 0.0002[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{30,1}.(0.25)^{1}.(0.75)^{29} = 0.0018[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{30,2}.(0.25)^{2}.(0.75)^{28} = 0.0086[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.0002 + 0.0018 + 0.0086 = 0.0106[/tex]

0.0106 = 1.06% probability that 2 or fewer will withdraw

There are more compact cars (4*10 = 40) compared to trucks (2*10 = 20); however, the pictogram might make it appear that there are more trucks because the individual truck icon is larger compared to an individual compact car icon.

To anyone giving this image a quick glance, they may erroneously conclude that there are more trucks since their eye would notice the trucks first. Also, the person might think there are more trucks because bigger sizes tend to correspond to more proportion.

In real life, a truck is larger than a compact car, but the icons need to be the same size to have the figure not be misleading.

A very similar issue happens with the mid-size cars vs the compact cars as well. The three mid-size car icons span the same total width as the compact cars do, indicating that a reader might mistakenly conclude that there are the same number of mid-size cars compared to compact ones (when that's not true either).

Answer C

The correct answer is option (C).

P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Formula to find P(A ∪ B):

If A, B are two different events then P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

We have been given, P(A) = 0.4, P(B) = 0.3

From given Venn diagram,

P(A ∩ B) = 0.10

Now, P(A U B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A ∩ B)

⇒ P(A U B) = 0.4 + 0.3 - 0.10

⇒ P(A ∪ B) = 0.6

Therefore, the correct answer is option (C) .6
