Several years ago, the mean height of women 20 years of age or older was 63.7 inches. Suppose that a random sample of 45 women w

ho are 20 years of age or older today results in a mean height of 64.1 inches. (a) State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to assess whether women are taller today. (b) Suppose the P-value for this test is 0.06. Explain what this value represents. (c) Write a conclusion for this hypothesis test assuming an a

Since the p - value is less than significance level . So, we will accept the null hypothesis.

​(a) State the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses to assess whether women are taller today.

Definition of null hypothesis : The null hypothesis attempts to show that no variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. it is denoted

Alternative Hypothesis : In statistical hypothesis testing, the alternative hypothesis is a position that states something is happening, a new theory is true instead of an old one (null hypothesis).

We are given that The mean height of women 20 years of age or older was 63.7 inches.

So, null hypothesis :  H₀ : μ = 63.7

Alternative Hypothesis :  H₁ : μ > 63.7

b)The​ P-value for this test is 0.06.

The p-value represents the probability of getting a sample mean height of 20 years old women is  64.1 inches.

c) Write a conclusion for this hypothesis test assuming an alpha equals 0.10 level of significance.

p- value = 0.06

Since the p - value is less .

So, we will accept the null hypothesis

So,  

Hence The mean height is 63.7 inches

Angus has $3,000 he want to invest. What interest rate compounded continuously does an account need to offer so that Angus has $
kaheart [24]

Answer:

The interest rate is 7.58%

Step-by-step explanation:

Compound continuous interest can be calculated using the formula:

A = Pe^{rt}, where

  • A is the future value of the investment, including interest
  • P is the principal investment amount (the initial amount)
  • r is the interest rate  in decimal
  • t is the time the money is invested for

∵ Angus has $3,000 he want to invest

∴ P = 3000

∵ The interest rate is compounded continuously

∵ Angus has $5,500 in 8 years

∴ A = 5500

∴ t = 8

→ Substitute them in the rule above to find r

∵ 5500 = 3000e^{8r}

→ Divide both sides by 3000

∴ \frac{11}{6} = e^{8r}

→ Insert ㏑ in both sides

∵ ㏑( \frac{11}{6} ) = ㏑(e^{8r})

→ Remember ㏑(e^{n}) = n

∴ ㏑( \frac{11}{6} ) = 8r

→ Divide both sides by 8

∴ 0.07576697545 = r

→ Multiply it by 100% to change it to a percentage

∴ r = 0.07576697545 × 100%

∴ r = 7.576697545 %

→ Round it to the nearest hundredth

∴ r ≅ 7.58

∴ The interest rate is 7.58%

Laura drove 638 miles in 11 hours at the same rate how long would it take her to drive 406 miles
shusha [124]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a d = rt problem; but since it is linear, then proportions will work too. Set up the proportion with miles on top and hours on the bottom:

\frac{miles}{hrs}:

Then put the numbers in where they go, keeping in mind that miles goes with miles and hours goes with hours in the ratios, and that our unknown is time (hours):

\frac{miles}{hrs}:\frac{638}{11}=\frac{406}{x} and cross multiply to solve:

638x = 4466 so

x = 7 hrs
