Statistics In the manual “How to Have a Number One the Easy Way,” it is stated that a song “must be no longer than three minutes

Answer:

We conclude that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a simple random sample of 40 current hit songs results in a mean length of 252.5 seconds.

Assume that the standard deviation of song lengths is 54.5 sec.

Let $\mu$ = population mean length of the songs

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ $\leq$ 210 seconds {means that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean smaller than or equal to 210 seconds}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ > 210 seconds {means that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds}

The test statistics that will be used here is One-sample z-test statistics because we know about population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean length of songs = 252.5 seconds

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 54.5 seconds

n = sample of current hit songs = 40

So, the test statistics = $\frac{252.5-210}{\frac{54.5}{\sqrt{40} } }$

= 4.932

The value of z-test statistics is 4.932.

Now, at 0.05 level of significance, the z table gives a critical value of 1.645 for the right-tailed test.

Since the value of our test statistics is more than the critical value of z as 4.932 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region.

Therefore, we conclude that the sample is from a population of songs with a mean greater than 210 seconds.

2n + 3 = -3.2 what is the answer to n

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:n=-3.1

Step-by-step explanation:

2n + 3 = -3.2

Subtract 3 on both sides

2n+3-3=-3.2-3

2n=-6.2

Divide 2 on both sides
