Step-by-step explanation:

A study was to be undertaken to determine if a particular training program would improve physical fitness. A sample of 31 university students was selected to be enrolled in the fitness program. The researchers wished to determine if there was evidence that their sample of students differed from the general population of untrained subjects. The sample mean is 47.4 and a standard deviation of 5.3. The 98% confidence interval is determined and is given as, (45.2, 49.6) .

If the level of confidence is changed to 95%, then the confidence interval will become shorter but the p-value will not change because it is calculated using the test statistic. So the correct answer is (a).

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer: 1.303639

Step-by-step explanation:

The t-score for a level of confidence (1-\alpha) is given by :_

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}, where df is the degree of freedom and \alpha is the significance level.

Given : Level of significance : 1-\alpha:0.80

Then , significance level : \alpha: 1-0.80=0.20

Sample size : n=40

Then , the degree of freedom for t-distribution: df=n-1=40-1=39

Using the normal t-distribution table, we have

t_{(df,\alpha/2)}=t_{39,0.10}=1.303639

Thus, the t-score should be used to find the 80% confidence interval for the population mean =1.303639

Answer:

(a) -\sqrt{10}y

(b) -\sqrt{3}y

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) \sqrt{10y^{2}} can also be written as \sqrt{10} x \sqrt{y^{2}}

the \sqrt{y^{2}} = ± y

Therefore :

\sqrt{10y^{2}} = ±\sqrt{10}y

since it was given that y < 0 , then the factor will be -\sqrt{10}y

(b) \sqrt{3y^{2}} can also be written as : \sqrt{3} x \sqrt{y^{2}}

Therefore , one of the factor is -\sqrt{3}y

The period of f(x)=cos (2pi/3)x is ...?
Zigmanuir [339]
Well lets see. if you're  being specific about the rigor,  then the period means that <span>cos(2Π÷3(x+α))=cos(2Π÷3(x))</span>Therefore this gives <span>2π÷3α=2π</span>so α = 3.
Hope this can help you
