Which of the following situations calls for a hypothesis test about a population mean?

Mathematics

tigry1 [53]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hypothesis test about a population mean is done to evaluate two exclusive statements about a population in order to determine which is best supported by the sample data.

From the situations given, the correct options are

b. A recent study estimated that 20% of all college students in the United States smoke. The head of Health Services at Goodheart University suspects that the proportion of smokers may be lower there. This would require taking a sample and determining the probability of success.

c. A certain prescription allergy medicine is suppose to contain an average of 245 parts per million (ppm) of active ingredient. The manufacturer wants to check whether the mean concentration in a large shipment of pills is 245 ppm or not.

d. A report on the College Board website stated that in 2003 males scored generally higher than females on the SAT exam. An educational researcher wants to check whether this is true in her school district.

Answer:

Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

Vertex is (2, -1)

y-intercept is (0, 3)

Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

To draw the graph of the quadratic equation you must find at least 5 points lie on the graph by choose values of x and find their values of y

Let us do that

Use x = -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5

∵ y = x² - 4x + 3

∵ x = -1

∴ y = (-1)² - 4(-1) + 3 = 1 + 4 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (-1, 8)

∵ x = 0

∴ y = (0)² - 4(0) + 3 = 0 + 0 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (0, 3)

∵ x = 1

∴ y = (1)² - 4(1) + 3 = 1 - 4 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (1, 0)

∵ x = 2

∴ y = (2)² - 4(2) + 3 = 4 - 8 + 3 = -1

→ Plot point (2, -1)

∵ x = 3

∴ y = (3)² - 4(3) + 3 = 9 - 12 + 3 = 0

→ Plot point (3, 0)

∵ x = 4

∴ y = (4)² - 4(4) + 3 = 16 - 16 + 3 = 3

→ Plot point (4, 3)

∵ x = 5

∴ y = (5)² - 4(5) + 3 = 25 - 20 + 3 = 8

→ Plot point (5, 8)

→ Join all the points to form the parabola

From the graph

∵ The axis of symmetry is the vertical line passes through the vertex point

∵ x-coordinate of the vertex point is 2

∴ Axis is a vertical line at x = 2

∵ The coordinates of the vertex point of the parabola are (2, -1)

∴ Vertex is (2, -1)

∵ The parabola intersects the y-axis at point (0, 3)

∴ y-intercept is (0, 3)

∵ x² - 4x + 3 = 0

∵ The solutions of the equation are the values of x at y = 0

→ That means the intersection points of the parabola and the x-axis

∵ The parabola intersects the x-axis at points (1, 0) and (3, 0)

∴ Solutions are x = 1 and x = 3

What happens to the inequality symbol when you multiply or divide each side by a positive number?
Pani-rosa [81]
If you multiply or divide by a positive number the inequality sign DOES NOT CHANGE!

If you multiply or divide by a negative number the inequality sign flips around and becomes the opposite.
