Lester Hollar is vice president for human resources for a large manufacturing company. In recent years, he has noticed an increa

se in absenteeism that he thinks is related to the general health of the employees. Four years ago, in an attempt to improve the situation, he began a fitness program in which employees exercise during their lunch hour. To evaluate the program, he selected a random sample of eight participants and found the number of days each was absent in the 6 months before the exercise program began and in the 6 months following the exercise program. Following are the results.

At the .05 significance level, can he conclude that the number of absences has declined? Estimate the p-value.
a. State the decision rule for 0.1 significance level: H0 : μd ≤ 0; H1 : μd > 0. b. Compute the value of the test statistic.
c. Estimate the p-value? d. What is your decision regarding H0?

The hypothesis is given as

H0:  μd< 0

H1: μd > 0

<h3>How to solve for the hypothesis.</h3>

The null hypothesis is given as

H0:  μd< 0

<h3>The alternative hypothesis is given as </h3>

H1: μd > 0

SWe have to find the value of s

we would use this formula s = sqrt [ (Σ(di - d)^2 / (n - 1) ]

This gives us  3.454

Next we have to determine the standard error

s / √(n)

3.454/2.8284

= 1.22

Degree of freedom = 8 - 1

= 7

t = (x1 - x2) - D / S.E

=  1.025

Find t critical at 0.10

= 1.895

P-value = 0.1697

d. Given that p value is greater thatn 0.1 we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

In spring 2014, faculty from the City University of New York (CUNY) reported on a randomized controlled trial they conducted. Th
Tems11 [23]

Answer:

Explanatory variable: Extra support by faculties

Response variable: whether community college students who have assess into elementary algebra could be successful if they were placed directly into college-level statistics.

Confounding Variable: Ability of students to get passing grades.

It is an experiment to check if the hypothesis is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

An explanatory variable is a type of independent variable. An explanatory variable is that variable that explains changes in another variable. It can be anything that might affect the response variable. The explanatory variable is used to predict or explain differences in the response variable. In an experimental or research study, the explanatory variable is the variable that is manipulated by the researcher.

From the information given,

Explanatory variable: Extra support by faculties.

The response variable is also known as the dependent/outcome variable. Here, its value can be predicted or its variation can be explained by the explanatory variable. In an experimental study, this is the outcome that is measured after manipulation of the explanatory variable

From the question above,

Response variable: whether community college students who have assess into elementary algebra could be successful if they were placed directly into college-level statistics.

A confounding variable is that outside influence that changes the effect of a dependent and independent variable. This extraneous influence is often used to influence the outcome of an experimental design. The Confounding Variable in the above is:

Confounding Variable: Ability of students to get passing grades.

It is an experiment to check if the hypothesis is true.

How do you solve this In this case 1422 = 5534/(1+r)^4
Sever21 [200]
It is okay to take the inverse of both side given that you remember to exclude the value that make the denominator  zero which is in this case r=-1

12. (2v^3 - v + 8) + (-v^3 + v - 3)<br><br> 14. (4h^3 + 3h + 1) - (-5h^3 + 6h - 2)
Lana71 [14]
12. On addition, you can just combine like terms.
2v^3+(-v^3)=v^3
-v+v cancels each other out
8+(-3)=5
So you have v^3+5

14 On subtraction, you have to remember to distribute the negative sign so after you do that you have:
4h^3+3h+1+5h^3-6h+2
Then you can combine like terms
4h^3+5h^3=9h^3
3h-6h=-3h
1+2=3
So you end up with:
9h^3-3h+3

Hope that helps and feel free to ask any questions.
