To pass the time on his travels, Ibn Battuta decides to run a test to see if the mean caravan size passing through a certain outpost is greater than 20 camels. He records the sizes of 7 caravans that pass through, assume that this represents a simple random sample of all caravans. After noticing that a smaller number of caravans are significantly larger than the rest of the population, he concludes the population is quite different from normal. He does not know the population's standard deviation. Which of the following describe which kind of test he should run?
a. He should run a Z-test.
b. He should run a T-test, and approximating it with a normal distribution would be appropriate.
c. He should run a T-test, and approximating it with a normal distribution would be inappropriate.
d. None of the above would be appropriate tests.

Answers

Answer 1

In the given scenario, one can use only non-parametric tests as the distribution is not normal.

Statistically speaking, normality means the distribution of data or variables following a normal distribution, also known as a Gaussian distribution or bell curve.

a. Since the standard deviation of the population is not known, Z-test cannot be run.

b. According to the thumb rule, for approximation to normality by using the central limit theorem, the minimum sample size is required to be 30.

With a sample size of 7, normality cannot be assumed.

So, a t-test with approximating the distribution with normal distribution would not be appropriate to run.

c. Without normality assumptions, one can't run a t-test because the t-test's basic assumption is the normality of the distribution.

So, all the options are incorrect which leaves us with the option d. None of the above would be appropriate tests.

In 2002 the population of schoolchildren in a city was 90,000. The population decreases at a rate of 5% per year. What will be the population of school children in 2010?

Answers

Answer:

40,000 Not sure but i finish unit and got all a's and b's

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

59708

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial population = 90000Decrease rate = 5% or 0.05 timesTime = 2010 - 2002 = 8 years

Population of children in 2010:

P = 90000*(1 - 0.05)^8 = 59708 (rounded to the whole number)

David and Patti each decomposed 138. David wrote 1 + 1/8 + 3/8. Patti wrote 4/8+2/8+5/8.

No bitly.

Answers

Answer:

Both are wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that:

Both decomposed the fraction [tex]\frac{13}{8}[/tex] into a sum of fractions. Whoever's decomposition sum has a value of [tex]\frac{13}{8}[/tex] is correct.

David:

[tex]1 + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{8}{8} + \frac{1}{8} + \frac{3}{8} = \frac{8+1+3}{8} = \frac{12}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{8} \neq \frac{13}{8}[/tex], which means that David is wrong.

Patti

[tex]\frac{4}{8} + \frac{2}{8} + \frac{5}{8} = \frac{4+2+5}{8} = \frac{11}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{11}{8} \neq \frac{13}{8}[/tex], which means that Patti is wrong.

So the answer is that both are wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello! The answer would be down below! :)

x = 0 will be the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we start with [tex]\frac{3}{4} x = \frac{1}{5} x[/tex] .

For step 1 we should subtract [tex]\frac{1}{5} x[/tex]  on both sides.

[tex]\frac{3}{4} x - \frac{1}{5} x = \frac{1}{5} x - \frac{1}{5} x[/tex]

= [tex]\frac{11}{20} x = 0[/tex]

For step 2 we will multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{20}{11}[/tex].

[tex](\frac{20}{11})[/tex] x [tex](\frac{11}{20} x ) = (\frac{20}{11})[/tex] x [tex]\ (0)[/tex]

482 – 412 + 286 - 12 x 204solve​

Answers

Answer:

70,176

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

482 - 412 + 286 - 12 × 204

We need to solve the above equation

= 482 - 412 + 286 - 12 × 204

= 70 + 286 - 12 × 204

= 356 - 12 × 204

= 344 × 204

= 70,176

Hence, the answer to the given equation is 70,176

A cone shaped pile of sawdust has a base diameter of 24 feet, and is 10 feet tall. Find the volume of the pile

Answers

Answer:

[tex]V=1507.2\ feet^3[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of a cone-shaped sawdust, d = 24 feet

Height of the sawdust, h = 10 feet

We need to find the volume of the pile. We know that the volume of a cone is given by :

[tex]V=\dfrac{1}{3}\pi r^2 h[/tex]

Where

r is the radius of the sawdust, r = 12 feet

Put all the values,

[tex]V=\dfrac{1}{3}\times 3.14\times 12^2\times 10\\\\V=1507.2\ feet^3[/tex]

So, the volume of the pile is equal to [tex]1507.2\ feet^3[/tex].

Find the properties of each Quadratic Function

Answers

Answer:

1.) up

2.) (-2,-5)

3.) x = -2

4.) (-2,-5)

5.) y = -5

6.) -∞ < x < ∞

7.) -5 < y < ∞

8.) (0,0)

9.) (0,0) and (-4,0)

10.) two solutions

Step-by-step explanation:

1.) because the parabola opens upward and the vertex is down

2.) the lowest point of the parabola is (-2,-5)

3.) If a line was drawn through the point x = -2, the two halves of the parabola would look symmetrical ( the same on both sides).

4.) The minimum point on the graph is ( -2,-5), because that is the lowest point on this upward parabola, and we can not determine the maximum.

5.) The minimum value of y is y = -5, because that is the lowest value of y on this graph, and we can not determine the maximum.

6.) Because the arms of the parabola continue traveling through negative infinity and positive infinity on the x-axis, the domain is -∞ < x < ∞.

7.) The arms of the parabola go from y = -5 to infinity, so the range of the parabola is -5 < y < ∞.

8.) The parabola first crosses the y-axis at the point (0,0)

9.) The parabola first crosses the x-axis at the points (0,0) and (-4,0)

10,) The solution to the parabola is the variable x. The solutions (x intercepts) of the parabola are x = 0 and x = -4.
