An insurance company sets up a statistical test with a null hypothesis that the average time for processing a claim is 7 days, a

nd an alternative hypothesis that the average time for processing a claim is greater than 7 days. After completing the statistical test, it is concluded that the average time exceeds 7 days. However, it is eventually learned that the mean process time is really 7 days. What type of error occurred in the statistical test?A. Type II error B. Both Type I and Type II error C. Type I error D. No error occurred in the statistical sense.

Answer:

C. Type I error

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The hypothesis tested was:

H₀: μ = 7

H₁: μ > 7

The decision was taken: Reject the null hypothesis.

Reminder:

There are four decisions you can take when you make a hypothesis test.

1. Reject the null hypothesis when the hypothesis is false (This is a correct decision)

2. Reject the null hypothesis when the hypothesis is true (This decision is also known as Type I error)

3. Fail to reject the null hypothesis when the hypothesis is true (This is a correct decision)

4. Fail to reject the null hypothesis when the hypothesis is false (This decision is also known as Type II error)

Since they concluded, that the average process time vas greater than 7 days, when it was 7 days, they rejected the null hypothesis when it was true. This is a Type I error and its associated probability is α.

I hope it helps!

Solve for x.. please help
Genrish500 [490]
The answer for this problem is that x = 60°, or B. 

We can solve this problem by using our knowledge of quadrilaterals. In this problem, we need to know that the number of degrees in a quadrilateral is equal to 360, but, the formula to find the number of degrees in a polygon with n sides is (n-2) * 180. 

Now that we know that the sum of the angles if 360°, we can add all the angles and solve for x. The angles with the squares are 90°. 

2x° + x° + 90° + 90° = 360°

Get x by itself, combine like terms. 

3x° + 180° - 180° = 360° - 180°
3x° = 180°
x = 60°, or B.

Complementary angles - the sum of two angles equals 90 degrees

Exterior angle theorem- the sum of the remote interior angles of a triangle equals the outside angle

Isosceles triangle- has two equal sides and two equal angles

Supplementary angle- the sum of two angles equals 180 degrees

Triangle sum theorem- the sum of of interior angles equal 180

Vertical angles- congruent angles that are opposite of each other.

The box plot represents the amount of time 15 pet owners spend exercising their pets each day.
lianna [129]

Answer: False

Step-by-step explanation: To find the mean time add all the times and divide by the amount of times you have, which is 9.

0 + 15 + 30 + 90 + 105 + 120 + 45 + 60 + 75 = 540 total minutes spent.

Now divide 540 by 9 to get the mean time. 540 divided by 9 = 60.

So the mean is 60 minutes, not 75 minutes.

Therefore the statement below is False.
