Tensile-strength tests were carried out on two different grades of wire rod. Grade 1 has 10 observations yielding a sample mean

of 1085 and standard deviation of 52. Grade 2 has 15 observations yielding a sample mean of 1034 and standard deviation of 61. Assume the populations to be approximately normal with equal variances.
State and conclude your hypothesis at the 0.05 level of significance if grade 1 and grade 2 true means are equal each other?

Find P-Value.

Answer:

t = \frac{1085-1034}{\sqrt{\frac{52^2}{10} +\frac{61^2}{15}}} = 2.240

df = n_1 +n_2 -2 = 10+15-2= 23

p_v = 2*P(t_{23} >2.240) = 0.035

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true means are different at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

\bar X_1 = 1085 sample mean for group 1

\bar X_2 = 1034 sample mean for group 2

n_1 = 10 sample size for group 1

n_2 = 15 sample size for group 2

s_1 = 52 sample deviation for group 1

s_2 = 61 sample deviation for group 2

Solution

We want to check if the two means are equal so then the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1= \mu_2

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_1 \neq \mu_2

And the statistic is given by:

t = \frac{\bar X_1 -\bar X_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{s^2_2}{n_2}}}

And replacing we got:

t = \frac{1085-1034}{\sqrt{\frac{52^2}{10} +\frac{61^2}{15}}} = 2.240

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n_1 +n_2 -2 = 10+15-2= 23

And the p value would be:

p_v = 2*P(t_{23} >2.240) = 0.035

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true means are different at 5% of significance

Find the sixth term of the sequence 1/2, -3/8, 9/32
sukhopar [10]

Answer:

The sixth term is -243/2048 ⇒ answer B

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain the geometric sequence

- There is a constant ratio between each two consecutive numbers

- Ex:

# 5  ,  10  ,  20  ,  40  ,  80  ,  ………………………. (×2)

# 5000  ,  1000  ,  200  ,  40  ,  …………………………(÷5)  

* General term (nth term) of a Geometric sequence:

# U1 = a  ,  U2  = ar  ,  U3  = ar²  ,  U4 = ar³  ,  U5 = ar^4

# Un = ar^(n-1), where a is the first term , r is the constant ratio

  between each two consecutive terms  and n is the position of the

  number in the sequence

- Ex: U5 = ar^4  ,  U7 = ar^6  ,  U10 = ar^9  ,  U12 = ar^11

- Lets solve the problem

∵ The sequence is 1/2 , -3/8 , 9/32

- Lets find the constant ratio r

∵ The first term is a = 1/2

∵ The second term is U2 = ar

∵ The second term  U2 = -3/8

∴ ar = -3/8

∴ 1/2 r = -3/8 ⇒ multiply both sides by 2

∴ r = -3/4

- Lets find the sixth term

∵ a = 1/2 and r = -3/4

∵ n = 6

∴ U6 = ar^5

∴ U6 = 1/2 (-3/4)^5 = 1/2 × -243/1024 = -243/2048

* The sixth term is -243/2048

Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

168.24784 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the square:

28 x 28=784 sq. m.

Area of the circle:

π(r²)=π(14)²=196π

    =615.75216

Area not covered by the sprinkler:

784-615.75216=168.24784 m²

Which situation can be modeled by the inequality 60−15x≥7?
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a situation for 60−15x≥7, look for a story where 60 is a constant value that is decreasing by 15 for a number of times and where equal to or at least 7 is an option.

A. x would be weeks and it would decrease by 7x. This is not it.

B. 15 songs packages would have x be the number of packages not the price. This is not it.

C. This doesn't work either because if you want to owe them less than 7 it would have the sign < not >.

D. You have 60 to spend and you decrease it by $15 for each hat you buy till you save $7. This is it.
