.In the Star Wars franchise, Yoda stands at only 66 centimeters tall. Suppose you want to see whether or not hobbits from the Lo

rd Of The Rings are taller than Yoda, on average. From prior research you know that the distribution of hobbit heights are approximately Normally distributed. From a sample of 7 hobbits, you find their mean height ¯ x = 80cm with standard deviation s = 10.8cm. Does sample evidence suggest at the α = 0.01 level of significance that the average hobbit is taller than Yoda? Use steps A through F to test the appropriate hypotheses.

Answer:

We conclude that the average height of hobbit is taller than Yoda.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in the Star Wars franchise, Yoda stands at only 66 centimetres tall.

From a sample of 7 hobbits, you find their mean height \bar X = 80 cm with standard deviation s = 10.8 cm.

<u><em /></u>

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = average height of hobbit.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 66 cm      {means that the average height of hobbit is shorter than or equal to Yoda}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 66 cm      {means that the average height of hobbit is taller than Yoda}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample t test statistics</u> as we don't know about population standard deviation;

                     T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  ~ t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample mean height = 80 cm

             s = sample standard deviation = 10.8 cm

             n = sample of hobbits = 7

So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{80-66}{\frac{10.8}{\sqrt{7}}}  ~ t_6

                              =  3.429

The value of t test statistics is 3.429.

<em>Now, at 0.01 significance level the t table gives critical value of 3.143 for right-tailed test. Since our test statistics is more than the critical value of t as 3.429 > 3.143, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which </em><em><u>we reject our null hypothesis</u></em><em>.</em>

<em />

Therefore, we conclude that the average height of hobbit is taller than Yoda.

The green triangle is a dilation of the red triangle with a scale factor of s=1/3 and the center of dilation is at the point (4,
klasskru [66]

Given:

The scale factor is s=\dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at the point (4,2).

Red is original figure and green is dilated figure.

To find:

The coordinates of point C' and point A.

Solution:

Rule of dilation: If a figure is dilated with a scale factor k and the center of dilation is at the point (a,b), then

(x,y)\to (k(x-a)+a,k(y-b)+b)

According to the given information, the scale factor is \dfrac{1}{3} and the center of dilation is at (4,2).

(x,y)\to (\dfrac{1}{3}(x-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(y-2)+2)            ...(i)

Let us assume the vertices of red triangle are A(m,n), B(10,14) and C(-2,11).

Using (i), we get

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-2-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(11-2)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(\dfrac{1}{3}(-6)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(9)+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(-2+4,3+2)

C(-2,11)\to C'(2,5)

Therefore, the coordinates of Point C' are C'(2,5).

We assumed that point A is A(m,n).

Using (i), we get

A(m,n)\to A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)

From the given figure it is clear that the image of point A is (8,4).

A'(\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4,\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2)=A'(8,4)

On comparing both sides, we get

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)+4=8

\dfrac{1}{3}(m-4)=8-4

(m-4)=3(4)

m=12+4

m=16

And,

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)+2=4

\dfrac{1}{3}(n-2)=4-2

(n-2)=3(2)

n=6+2

n=8

Therefore, the coordinates of point A are (16,8).

ycow [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:  3root5x^2 + 25x - 10root5 = 0

3xroot5 + 25x - 10root5 = 0      [ root x^2 = x]

28x root5 = 10 root5         [ -10root5 turns to 10 root5 when transferred to RHS]

28x root 5/root5 =10

28x=10

x = 10/28

x = 0.35

Hope it helped u,
