In a study of distances traveled by buses before the first major engine failure, a sample of 191 buses results in a mean of 96,700 miles and a population standard deviation 37,500 miles. Calculate the appropriate test statistic to test the claim that the mean distance traveled before a major engine failure is more than 90,000 miles.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The test statistics is  [tex]z = 2.47[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample size is  n =  191 \  buses

     The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 96 700 \ miles[/tex]

    The population standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 37 500 \ miles[/tex]

   

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = 90 000[/tex]

The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 90 000[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

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

=>      [tex]z = \frac{96700 - 90 000 }{ \frac{37500}{\sqrt{191} } }[/tex]

=>      [tex]z = 2.47[/tex]

Read the information below and answer the questions. Suppose a researcher wants to learn more about the mean attention span of individuals in some hypothetical population. The researcher cites that the attention span (the time in minutes attending to some task) in this population is normally distributed with the following characteristics: 20 36 . Based on the parameters given in this example, answer the following questions: 1. What is the population mean (μ)?

Answers

Answer:

The population mean (μ) = 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

The population characteristics = 20 and 36

Total population of interest = 56 (20 + 36)

Number of groups in the population = 2

Therefore, the population mean (μ) = 56/2 = 28

b) Based on the parameters given in this example, the population mean equals the average of the group characteristic (attention span of individuals in minutes) or item of interest.  The population mean is calculated by adding the values of the group characteristic and then dividing the result by the number of values.

Standard tests, such as the SAT or ACT or MCAT, tend to make extensive use of multiple-choice questions because they are easy to grade using software. If one such multiple choice question has possible correct answers of a, b, c, d, e, what is the probability of a wrong answer if the answer is a random guess

Answers

Answer:

4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of options = a, b, c, d, e

Number of correct answer choice = 1

Therefore, number of wrong answers = 4

Recall :

Probability = (number required outcome / number of total possible outcomes)

P(wrong answer) :

Number of Required outcome = number of wrong answer choices = 4

Total answers = 5

Hence,

P(wrong answer) = 4 / 5 = 0.8

/ The Hotel is 163 miles from your house.your car travels 10.5 miles for every litre of petrol. Work out approximately how many litres of petrol the journey will use.

2/The price of petrol is 138.9 pence per litre Work out the approximate cost for the petrol to the hotel .

3/ you expect to travel 50 miles in each hour of a jurney how long the whole journey should take

Answers

1. 163/10.5 = 15.5 litres
2. 138.9 * 15.5 = 2,152 pence which is 21$
3.163/50 =3.2 hours

Answer:

The answers are:

15.523 liters of petrol will be used.The cost of petrol will be: 2156.2 penceThe journey will take 3 hours and 16 minutes approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance of Hotel and car = 163 miles

Distance travelled by car per liter = 10.5 miles

The number of liters will be obtained by dividing the total distance by distance travelled in one liter.

So,

[tex]number\ of\ liters = \frac{163}{10.5} = 15.523\ liters[/tex]

2. Cost for petrol:

Cost of petrol per liter = 138.9 pence per liter

Then the total cost of petrol will be:

[tex]Total\ cost = 138.9*15.523 = 2156.1447 => 2156.2\ pences[/tex]

3. Time taken for journey

Distance travelled in an hour = speed = 50 miles per hour.

The speed is given by the formula:

[tex]speed = \frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

Putting the values

[tex]50 = \frac{163}{t}\\t = \frac{163}{50}\\t = 3.26\ hours[/tex]

It will take: 3 hours and 0.26*60 = 15.6 minutes => 3 hours 16 minutes

Hence,

The answers are:

15.523 liters of petrol will be used.The cost of petrol will be: 2156.2 penceThe journey will take 3 hours and 16 minutes approximately

What is the least common denominator of 1/2,2/3 and 3/8 OA) 48 OB) 24 O C) 16 OD) 12 plz help me ​

Answers

Answer:

24

Step-by-step explanation:

The required least common denominator (LCD) of 1/2, 2/3, and 3/8 is 24.

What is the least common denominator?

The least common denominator has a defined factor that is least common among the factors of the denominator is called the least common denominator.

Here,
Rewrite each fraction with the least common denominator (LCD) of 24 by multiplying both the numerator and denominator by the appropriate factor:

1/2 = (1/2) * (12/12) = 12/24

2/3 = (2/3) * (8/8) = 16/24

3/8 = (3/8) * (3/3) = 9/24

Check that the fractions have the same denominator:

12/24, 16/24, and 9/24

Therefore, the least common denominator (LCD) of 1/2, 2/3, and 3/8 is 24.

if f(x)=2x and g(x)=5x, what is f(g(x)) when x=3

Answers

Answer:

30

Step-by-step explanation:

First: f(3)=2(3) is 3F=6, divide by 3 on each side and F=2.

Second g(3)=5(3) is 3G=15, divide by 3 on each side and G=5.

Finally, f(g)(x) is (2)(5)(3) = 10x3 = 30.

The value of the function f ( g ( x ) ) when x = 3 is 30

What is Composition of functions?

Evaluation of a function at the value of another function is known as Composition of function. A function composition is a process in which two functions, f and g, form a new function, h, in such a way that
h(x) = g(f(x)). This signifies that function g is being applied to the function x. So, in essence, a function is applied to the output of another function.

Given data ,

Let the first function be f (x ) = 2x

Let the second function g ( x ) = 5x

Now ,

The composite function is of the form f ( g ( x ) ) ,

So assign the value of x in f ( x ) as x = g ( x )

And , g ( x ) = 5x

So , the composite function will be

f ( 5x ) = 2 ( 5x )

          = 10x

Now , when x = 3

f ( g ( 3 ) ) = 10 x 3

               = 30

Therefore , the value of f ( g ( 3 ) ) is 30

Hence , the value of the function f ( g ( x ) ) when x = 3 is 30

Find the area of the curve y= f(x) = x between x = 5 and x = 10

Answers

Answer:

the area of the curve y= f(x) = x between x = 5 and x = 10

[tex]A=\frac{75}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Finding the area of the curve  y = f(x) = x between x = 5 and x = 10

Using the Area formula

[tex]A=\int _a^b\:f\left(x\right)dx[/tex]

As the area of curve lies between x = 5 and x = 10

so

a = 5, b = 10

so the integral expression becomes

[tex]A=\int _5^{10}xdx[/tex]

[tex]\mathrm{Apply\:the\:Power\:Rule}:\quad \int x^adx=\frac{x^{a+1}}{a+1},\:\quad \:a\ne -1[/tex]

[tex]A=\left[\frac{x^{1+1}}{1+1}\right]^{10}_5[/tex]

    [tex]=\left[\frac{x^2}{2}\right]^{10}_5[/tex]

     [tex]=\frac{1}{2}\left[10^2-5^2\right][/tex]

     [tex]=\frac{1}{2}\cdot \:75[/tex]

     [tex]=\frac{75}{2}[/tex]

Therefore, area of the curve y= f(x) = x between x = 5 and x = 10

Bill conducts a study during which he compares two, independent groups and he gets a significance value of .16 (i.e., p=.16). He looks at the means of the groups and sees the Group 1 Mean is 70 and the Group 2 mean is 77. He concludes they are different. (a) Why is Bill wrong? (b) What exactly does his p-value mean, in this instance?

Answers

Answer:

P-value is a parameter to compare with the significance level in order to make decisions about rejecting or not the hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

When you are developing a hypothesis test, in order to compare two means  (  μ₁   and  μ₂ )  you have two hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                       H₀            μ₁   =      μ₂

And depending on the problem statement, the alternative  hypothesis could be

Alternative Hypothesis           Hₐ     (1)         μ₁    >     μ₂  

                                                            (2)        μ₁     <    μ₂

                                                             (3)       μ₁     ≠      μ₂

Now if the result of the test determines that H₀ is rejected  you accept in case

(1)   μ₁    >     μ₂

(2)  μ₁    >     μ₂  

(3)  μ₁     ≠      μ₂

In any case, you need a confidence Interval, and as consequence you established a significance level to do your test. These two concept defines the acceptance and the rejection region. Just for instance

CI  =  90% means that the acceptance region is 90 %, and at the same time, the rejection area is 10 %. That 10 % will be used as follows,

Case 1 you are developing a one tail-test to the left ( side of the curve )

Case 2 you are developing  a one tail-test to the right

Case 3 you are developing a two-tail test ( in that case you need to split α into two equal areas one for each tail.

Now P-value is a tool for decision is an area that you can compare with α to accept or reject H₀.

In our particular case suppose we are testing

H₀     μ₁   =      μ₂

Hₐ      μ₁     <    μ₂

Let´s say CI = 95    then  α = 5 %     α = 0,05

And we get  P-value  =  0,16

Then area   0,16 > 0,05   Then we are in the acceptance region

(that condition really implies that z(s) < z(c)
