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.

How many different simple random samples of size 4 from a population size 46

Answers

Answer:   163,185

This is one single number. The number is slightly larger than 163 thousand.

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

Explanation:

Consider four slots labeled A,B,C,D

We have....

46 choices for slot A45 choices for slot B44 choices for slot C43 choices for slot D

There's a countdown going on (46,45,44,43) when filling up the slots. This countdown is because we cannot reselect any specific person for multiple slots at the same time.

If order mattered, then we'd have 46*45*44*43 = 3,916,440 permutations possible.

However, order doesn't matter. For any group of 4 people, there are 4! = 4*3*2*1 = 24 ways to arrange them. So we must divide the previous result over 24 to get (3,916,440)/24 = 163,185

This means there are 163,185 different combinations and this is the number of possible samples of size 4 from a population of 46 people. The order of any sample doesn't matter.

B. 191
C. 180​

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The bar chart to the question is attached below.

The distance traveled by Paolo = 210 m, The distance traveled by Lucas = 150 m, The distance traveled by Jashua = 175 m, The distance traveled by Topher = 190 m

1) The farther distance walk by Paolo = The distance traveled by Paolo - The distance traveled by Topher = 210 m - 190 m = 20 m

2) The farther distance walk by Jasha = The distance traveled by Jashua - The distance traveled by Lucas = 175 m - 150 m = 25 m

3) The farther distance walk by Topher = The distance traveled by Topher - The distance traveled by Lucas = 190 m - 150 m = 40 m

4) Combined distance of Paolo's and Lucas = 210 m + 150 m = 360 m

Combined distance of Jashua and Topher = 175 m + 190 m = 365 m

Therefore the Combined distance of Jashua and Topher is more

5) Average distance = (210 + 150 + 175 + 190)/4 = 181.25 m

if the area of a rectangle is 144cm and breadth is 6cm, find the perimeter of the rectangle​

Answers

Find the length by dividing area by breadth:

144 /6 = 24 cm

Perimeter = 2breath  + 2length

Perimeter = 2(6) + 2(24)

Perimeter = 12 + 48

Perimeter = 60 cm

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Area = L*W

A = 144 cm^2

w = 6

L=?

144 = 6*L             Divide by 6

144/6 = 6L/6  

L = 24

P= 2w + 2L

P = 2*6 + 2*24

P = 12 + 25

P = 36 cm

In 1980, the average cost of a pack of cigarettes was $0.88. In 2000, the average cost was $5.31 per pack.

What is the average rate of change of the cost of a pack of cigarettes? What is another name for the average rate of change?

Round your answer to the nearest cent.

Answers

Answer:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

Another name for the average rate of change is slope.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack ([tex]r[/tex]), in monetary units per year, is equal to the change in the average cost of a pack ([tex]\Delta c[/tex]), in monetary units, divided by the change in time ([tex]\Delta t[/tex]), in years. Then, the average rate of change is:

[tex]r = \frac{\$\,5.31-\$\,0.88}{2000-1980}[/tex]

[tex]r = \$\,0.22\,\frac{1}{yr}[/tex]

The average rate of change of the cost of a pack is 22 cents per year.

The diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.7 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.08 millimeters. Find the two diameters that separate the top 3% and the bottom 3%. These diameters could serve as limits used to identify which bolts should be rejected. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth, if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

The diameter that separates the top 3% is of 5.85 millimeters, and the one which separates the bottom 3% is of 5.55 millimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

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.

Mean of 5.7 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.08 millimeters.

This means that [tex]\mu = 5.7, \sigma = 0.08[/tex]

Top 3%

The 100 - 3 = 97th percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.97, so X when Z = 1.88.

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

[tex]1.88 = \frac{X - 5.7}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.7 = 1.88*0.08[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.85[/tex]

Bottom 3%

The 3rd percentile, which is X when Z has a p-value of 0.03, so X when Z = -1.88.

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

[tex]-1.88 = \frac{X - 5.7}{0.08}[/tex]

[tex]X - 5.7 = -1.88*0.08[/tex]

[tex]X = 5.55[/tex]

The diameter that separates the top 3% is of 5.85 millimeters, and the one which separates the bottom 3% is of 5.55 millimeters.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

About 40 millions of aluminum cans can be recycled each month in the US. A quarter of these aluminum cans are used to make one aluminum boat. How many aluminum boats can be made in one year in the US?

Given that:

Approximate Number of cans that can be recycled per month in the US = 40 million

Fraction of recycled cans that can be used to make an aluminum boat = 1/4

The number of aluminum boats that can be made in the US in one year :

If about 40 million cans are recycle per month :

The number of boat that can be made from each monthly recycled aluminum cans will be :

Number of monthly recycled can needed to make one boat:

1/4 * 40 million = 10 million cans

Hence, 40,000,000 / 10,000,000 = 4

4 aluminum boats can be made in one month :

Number of months in a year = 12

Number of aluminum boats that can be made in a year :

What is the m GE bisects Find m

Answers

Answer:

DGF = 106

Step-by-step explanation:

Bisects means to divide in half, with two equal parts

DGF = DGE + EGF

DGE = EGF

DGF = DGE + DGE

DGF = 53+53

DGF = 106

GE bisects ∠DGF, so it divides ∠DGF into 2 equal parts.

So, m∠EGF = m∠DGE

=> m∠EGF = 53°

m∠DGF = m∠EGF + m∠DGE

=> m∠DGF = 53° + 53°

=> m∠DGF = 106°
