Consider the following data set with an even number of data

The following data comparing wait times at two rides at Disney are listed below: Position Pirates Splash Mountain Sample Size 32

myrzilka [38]

Answer:

a) $(14.68 -18.77) - 2.39 \sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}} =-12.968$

$(14.68 -18.77) + 2.39 \sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}} =4.788$

b) $t=\frac{14.68-18.77}{\sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}}}}=-1.10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X_{A}=14.68$ represent the mean for Pirates

$\bar X_{B}=18.77$ represent the mean for Splash Mountain

$s_{A}=11.87$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample Pirates

$s_{B}=16.79$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample Slpash Mountain

$n_{A}=32$ sample size selected for Pirates

$n_{B}=30$ sample size selected for Splash Mountain

$\alpha=0.02$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

Part a

The confidence interval would be given by:

$(\bar X_A -\bar X_B) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_{A}}{n_{A}}+\frac{s^2_{B}}{n_{B}}}$

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df = n_A +n_B -2 = 32+30-2 = 60$

Since we want 98% of confidence the significance level is $\alpha =1-0.98 =0.02$ and $\alpha/2 =0.01$ , we can find in the t distribution with df =60 a critical value that accumulates 0.01 of the area on each tail and we got:

$t_{\alpha/2}= 2.39$

And replacing we got for the confidence interval:

$(14.68 -18.77) - 2.39 \sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}} =-12.968$

$(14.68 -18.77) + 2.39 \sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}} =4.788$

Part b

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the means are equal, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{A} = \mu_{B}$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_{A} \neq \mu_{B}$

the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X_{A}-\bar X_{B}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{A}}{n_{A}}+\frac{s^2_{B}}{n_{B}}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{14.68-18.77}{\sqrt{\frac{11.87^2}{32}+\frac{16.79^2}{30}}}}=-1.10$

Answer:

Just Between Friends

The percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370 is:

= 16%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean of consignor check, μ = $480

Standard deviation, σ = $110

Value of check received, x > $370

Solution: find the z-score to determine the percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370:

z = (x-μ)/σ

z= ($370 - $480)/$110

z = -$110/$110

z = -1.00

Percentage of consignors who receive a check for more than $370

= 0.15866

= 0.16

= 16%

sergejj [24]

Answer:

I think it would be 65 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If the side of Line q and line k is 115 degrees and its the same for line m and line k, then all you have to do is take 180 and subtract 115 from it to get the other side of the angle.

Question about a rational expression

sesenic [268]

-9=6/v

You have to multiply v both sides because
6/v x v = 6 and helps you get rid of the v on the right side.
If you multiply by 6, 6/v x 6 = 36/v, that’s why it don’t work.

Answer:
-9=6/v
-9v=6
v=-6/9
v=-2/3
