Answer:

C. The percentage of all homeowners that own at least one dog

Step-by-step explanation:

A parameter describes an entire population. Timothy is sampling from the 100 random homeowners to extrapolate their opinions onto the opinions of the entire population of homeowners.

Use the game spinner for questions 1-4. In your final answer, include all necessary calculations.

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

P (Even number) = 1/2

P(spinner will land on an odd number) = 1/2

P(spinner will not land on 2 or 3) = 3/4

P(spinner will not land on a multiple of 3) = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, while spinning the spinner total possible outcomes

are 8 = {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}

Now, $\textrm{P(E)} = \frac{\textrm{Number of favorable outcomes }}{\textrm{Total numberof outcomes}}$

a) E: Probability of getting even number

Favorable outcomes are {2,4,6,8}

Hence, $P(E) = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}$

b)E: Probability that the spinner will land on an odd number.

Favorable outcomes are {1,3,5,7}

Hence, $P(E) = \frac{4}{8} = \frac{1}{2}$

c) E: Probability that the spinner will not land on 2 or 3

Favorable outcomes are {1, 4,5,6,7,8}

Hence, $P(E) = \frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}$

d) E: Probability that the spinner will not land on a multiple of 3

Favorable outcomes are {1,2,4,5,7,8}

Hence, $P(E) = \frac{6}{8} = \frac{3}{4}$

It is rational because any number that can be represented in a fraction is rational. 4/33 is a fraction, so it is rational.

disa [49]

Answer:

The Decision Rule

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age of the cars is greater than that of taxi

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The data is

Car Ages 4 0 8 11 14 3 4 4 3 5 8 3 3 7 4 6 6 1 8 2 15 11 4 1 6 1 8

Taxi Ages 8 8 0 3 8 4 3 3 6 11 7 7 6 9 5 10 8 4 3 4

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.05$

Generally the null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0$

the alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu_1 - \mu_2 > 0$

Generally the sample mean for the age of cars is mathematically represented as

$\= x_1 = \frac{\sum x_i }{n}$

=> $\= x_1 = \frac{4+ 0+ 8 +11 + \cdots + 8
}{27}$

=> $\= x_1 = 5.56$

Generally the standard deviation of age of cars

$\sigma _1 = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - \= x)^2}{n_1} }$

=> $\sigma _1 = \sqrt{\frac{(4 - 5.56)^2 + (0 - 5.56)^2+ (8 - 5.56)^2 + \cdots + 8}{ 27} }$

=> $\sigma _1 = 3.88$

Generally the sample mean for the age of taxi is mathematically represented as

$\= x_2 = \frac{\sum x_i }{n}$

=> $\= x_2 = \frac{8 +8 +0 + \cdots + 4
}{20}$

=> $\= x_2 = 5.85$

Generally the standard deviation of age of taxi

$\sigma _2 = \sqrt{\frac{\sum (x_i - \= x)^2}{n_1} }$

=> $\sigma _2 = \sqrt{\frac{(8 - 5.85)^2 + (8 - 5.85)^2+ (0 - 5.85)^2 + \cdots + 8}{ 20} }$

=> $\sigma _2 = 2.83$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{(\= x_ 1 - \= x_2 ) - 0}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1} + \frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2} } }$

=> $t = \frac{(5.56 - 5.85 ) - 0}{\sqrt{\frac{(3.88)^2}{27} + \frac{(2.83)}{20} }}$

=> $t = -0.30$

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

$df = n_1 + n_2 -2$

$df = 27 + 20 -2$

$df = 45$

From the t distribution table the $P(t > t )$ at the obtained degree of freedom = 45 is

$P(t > -0.30 ) = 0.61722067$

So the p-value is

$p-value = P(t > T) = 0.61722067$

From the obtained values we see that the p-value > $\alpha$ hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Hence the there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the mean age of the cars is greater than that of taxi
