Answer:

The p-value is between .025 and .05

p-value = 0.028

The critical region is χ² ≥ 24.996

Using both approaches the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have the following hypothesis

H₀: σ² ≤ 50

H₁: σ² > 50

α: 0.05

To test the population variance, the statistic to use has is Chi-Square  distribution:

χ²=<u>  (n-1)S² </u> ~χ²_{n-1}

         σ²

With n= 16 and S= 9.5

The statistic value is:

χ²=<u>  (16-1)(9.5)² </u> = 27.075

            50²

This is a one-tailed test, to calculate the p-value you have to calculate the probability of the χ² value.

P(χ²_{15} ≥ 27.075) = 1 - P(χ²_{15} < 27.075) = 1 - 0.972 = 0.028

The p-value is between .025 and .05

p-value = 0.028

Since the p-value ≤ α the decision is to reject the null hypothesis. You can conclude that the population variance is greater than 50.

As I said this is a one-tailed test, the critical value is:

χ²_{n-1; 1-\alpha } = χ²_{15;0.95} = 24.996

Decision:

If χ² ≥ 24.996 then you reject the null hypothesis.

If χ² < 24.996 then you support the null hypothesis.

Since the calculated χ² value is greater than the critical value, you reject the null hypothesis.

I hope you have a SUPER day!

Josh​ simplified 4x - 8x ÷ 2 and said the answer was -2x. What was josh's error? What should his answer have been?
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

4x - 8x ÷ 2

Under the rules of PEMDAS , division must be performed before subtraction.

Hence

4x - 8x ÷ 2 = 4x - 4x ← dividing - 8x by 2, then

4x - 4x = 0 ← correct answer
