The direction of the difference between the 2 measurements.

<h3>What is nominal and ordinal scale with example?</h3>

Examples of data for a nominal scale include a person's gender, ethnicity, and hair color.
On the other hand, an ordinal scale requires putting data in a certain order, or in relation to one another and "ranking" each parameter (variable).

<h3>What is the difference nominal and ordinal?</h3>

Ordinal data has a preset or natural order, whereas nominal data is categorized without a natural order or rank.
A number that can be measured, however, will always be present in numerical or quantitative data.

<h3>What is an example of a ordinal scale?</h3>

First place would go to a student with a score of 99 out of 100; third place would go to a student with a score of 92 out of 100; and so on.

Answer:

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 120 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 120$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 120$

Part 2

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{114-120}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.636$

P-value

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=114$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=22$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=36$ sample size

$\mu_o =120$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

Part 1

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is equal to 120 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 120$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 120$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 and we know the population deviation so is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Part 2

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{114-120}{\frac{22}{\sqrt{36}}}=-1.636$

P-value

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(z$

I don’t understand number 89! please help I have a test tomorrow!

V = rw

where; v = velocity , r = radius , w = angular speed

you're given the diameter = 0.5 miles so the radius = 0.25 miles

180 = (0.25)w
180/0.25 = w
720 radians per hour = w

2pi radians in 1 revolution

720 rad/hr * 1 rev / 2pi rad = 720/2pi rev/hr
= 114.6 rev/hr

You need 2b cups of flour for making b loaves of bread. You have 8 cups of flour . Do you have enough for 5 loafs of bread?Expla

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

No. I don't have enough Flour to make 5 loaves of bread.

From the Amount of flour i had i can make 4 loaves only.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Flour required for making loaves of bread = $2b$ cups

Amount of flour i had = 8 cups

Number of loaves of bread = $b$

We need to find the we have enough flour to make 5 loafs of bread.

Solution:

We know that;

Amount of flour I had is equal to Flour required for making loaves of bread

framing in equation form we get;

$2b=8$

Dividing both side by 2 we get;

$\frac{2b}{2} =\frac{8}{2}$

$b=4$

Hence From the Amount of flour i had i can make 4 loaves only.

Hence I don't have enough Flour to make 5 loaves of bread.

Without doing any computation, decide which has a higher probability, assuming each sample is from a population that is normally

Nana76 [90]

Answer: The probability in (b) has higher probability than the probability in (a).

Explanation:

Since we're computing for the probability of the sample mean, we consider the z-score and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution. Recall that the standard deviation of the sampling distribution approximately the quotient of the population standard deviation and the square root of the sample size.

So, if the sample size higher, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution is lower. Since the sample size in (b) is higher, the standard deviation of the sampling distribution in (b) is lower.

Moreover, since the mean of the sampling distribution is the same as the population mean, the lower the standard deviation, the wider the range of z-scores. Because the standard deviation in (b) is lower, it has a wider range of z-scores.

Note that in a normal distribution, if the probability has wider range of z-scores, it has a higher probability. Therefore, the probability in (b) has higher probability than the probability in (a) because it has wider range of z-scores than the probability in (a).
