Answer:

d. t distribution with df = 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming this problem:

Consider independent simple random samples that are taken to test the difference between the means of two populations. The variances of the populations are unknown, but are assumed to be equal. The sample sizes of each population are n1 = 37 and n2 = 45. The appropriate distribution to use is the:

a. t distribution with df = 82.

b. t distribution with df = 81.

c. t distribution with df = 41.

d. t distribution with df = 80

Solution to the problem

When we have two independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances we are assuming that  

\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2

And the statistic is given by this formula:

t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}

Where t follows a t distribution with n_1+n_2 -2 degrees of freedom and the pooled variance S^2_p is given by this formula:

\S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}

This last one is an unbiased estimator of the common variance \sigma^2

So on this case the degrees of freedom are given by:

df= 37+45-2=80

And the best answer is:

d. t distribution with df = 80

the volume of a triangular prism is 42 cubic centimeters. what is the volume of a similar prism that is twice as large as large
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

The volume of the similar prism is 336\ cm^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its volumes is equal to the scale factor elevated to the cube

Let

z-----> the scale factor

x----> the volume of the larger prism

y----> the volume of the smaller prism

so

z^{3}=\frac{x}{y}

In this problem we have

z=2 -----> the scale factor

y=42\ cm^{3}

substitute and solve for x

x=42(2^{3})=336\ cm^{3}
