There are infinitely many solutions to this problem (which is why it asks what could those numbers be), so you just have to make one up!

Start with the first sentence.
x + y + z = 6.0

Now one of those numbers has to be less than 1. I'll choose x. And I'll choose a random number, say, 0.7.

0.7 + y + z = 6.0

Now I'll subtract 0.7 from both sides to see what y and z have to add up to.

0.7 + y + z - 0.7 = 6.0 - 0.7
y + z = 5.3

Now I'll choose a random number for y that's less than 5.3.

2.6 + z = 5.3

And subtract 2.6 from both sides to find z.

2.6 + z - 2.6 = 5.3 - 2.6
z = 2.7

And now we have our numbers!
x = <u>0.7</u>
y = <u>2.6</u>
z = <u>2.7</u>

To test the belief that sons are taller than their​ fathers, a student randomly selects 13 fathers who have adult male children.
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

1) B. The differences are normally distributed or the sample size is large

C. The  sample size mus be large

E. The sampling method results in an independent sample

2) The null hypothesis H₀:  \bar x_1 =  \bar x_2

The alternative hypothesis Hₐ: \bar x_1 <  \bar x_2

Test statistic, t = -0.00693

p- value = 0.498

Do not reject Upper H₀ because, the P-value is greater than the level of significance. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that sons are the same height as their fathers  at 0.10 level of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

1) B. The differences are normally distributed or the sample size is large

C. The  sample size mus be large

E. The sampling method results in an independent sample

2) The null hypothesis H₀:  \bar x_1 =  \bar x_2

The alternative hypothesis Hₐ: \bar x_1 <  \bar x_2

The test statistic for t test is;

t=\dfrac{(\bar{x}_1-\bar{x}_2)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{s_{1}^{2} }{n_{1}}-\dfrac{s _{2}^{2}}{n_{2}}}}

The mean

Height of Father, h₁,  Height of Son h₂

72.4,      77.5

70.6,      74.1

73.1,       75.6

69.9,      71.7

69.4,      70.5

69.4,      69.9

68.1,       68.2

68.9,      68.2

70.5,       69.3

69.4,       67.7

69.5,       67

67.2,       63.7

70.4,       65.5

\bar x_1  = 69.6      

s₁ = 1.58

\bar x_2 = 69.9

s₂ = 3.97

n₁ = 13

n₂ = 13

t=\dfrac{(69.908-69.915)}{\sqrt{\dfrac{3.97^{2}}{13}-\dfrac{1.58^{2} }{13}}}

(We reversed the values in the square root of the denominator therefore, the sign reversal)

t = -0.00693

p- value = 0.498 by graphing calculator function

P-value > α Therefore, we do not reject the null hypothesis

Do not reject Upper H₀ because, the P-value is greater than the level of significance. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that sons are the same height as their fathers  at 0.10 lvel of significance

Please help. Thank you.

The answer would be 24pi inches.

You can find this by using the formula for a circumference and plugging in the value of the radius.

C = 2pi*r

C = 2pi * 12

C = 24pi
