Answer:

10 and 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let unknown numbers be x and y

x + y = 10.... (1)

x - y = 3....... (2)

This leads to simultaneous linear equations

We shall solve the equation by substitution method

From equation (1), we shall make x subject of formula to form a new equation (3)

x + y = 17

x = 17 - y ..... (3)

Now we substitute the value of x = 17 - y into equation (2)

x - y = 3

17 - y - y = 3

17 - 2y = 3

-2y = 3 - 17

-2y = -14

y = 7

Now we substitute this new value of y = 7 into equation (1)

x + y = 17..... (1)

x + 7 = 17

x = 17 - 7

x = 10

Therefore the two numbers are 7 and 10

7 + 10 = 17

10 - 7 = 3

x + 7

The mean income per person in the United States is $44,500, and the distribution of incomes follows a normal distribution. A ran
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

We conclude that the residents of Wilmington, Delaware, have higher income than the national average

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = $44,500

Sample mean, \bar{x} = $52,500

Sample size, n = 16

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s =  $9,500

a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 44,500\text{ dollars}\\H_A: \mu > 44,500\text{ dollars}

We use one-tailed(right) t test to perform this hypothesis.

c) Formula:

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{52500 - 44500}{\frac{9500}{\sqrt{16}} } = 3.37

b) Rejection rule

If the calculated t-statistic is greater than the t-critical value, we fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it.

Now,

t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 15 degree of freedom } = 1.753

Since,                    

t_{stat} > t_{critical}

We fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the residents of Wilmington, Delaware, have higher income  than the national average
