4 0
Secθ = cos^(-1)θ is the same as secθ = 1/cosθ 

<span>Secant is a trigonometric function, reciprocal to the cosine. </span>

<span>People get confused because they tend to link "cosine" and "cosecant" (which is reciprocal to the sine)</span>

A counselor at a community college claims that the mean GPA for students who have transferred to State University is more than 3
Lena [83]

Answer:

t=\frac{3.25-3.1}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{36}}}=3  

If we compare the p value and the significance level for example \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

And the best conclusion would be:

a) Yes. The counselor's claim is valid

Because we reject the null hypothesis in favor to the alternative hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=3.25 represent the sample mean

s=0.3 represent the sample standard deviation

n=36 sample size  

\mu_o =3.1 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha 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)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is more than 3.1, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 3.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 3.1  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

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

t=\frac{3.25-3.1}{\frac{0.3}{\sqrt{36}}}=3  

P-value  

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=36-1=35  

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(35)}>3)=0.00247  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level for example \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

And the best conclusion would be:

a) Yes. The counselor's claim is valid

Because we reject the null hypothesis in favor to the alternative hypothesis.

The LCM is the smallest positive number that all of the numbers divide into evenly.

1. List the prime factors of each number.

2. Multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number.

The number

gavmur [86]

Answer:

  1.1 qt/s

Step-by-step explanation:

To find quarts per second, divide quarts by seconds:

  (63 qt)/(56 s) = 9/8 qt/s ≈ 1.1 qt/s

Which description does NOT guarantee that a trapezoid is isosceles?
babunello [35]

A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if

(1) The base angles are congruent

(2) The diagonals are congruent

(3) The opposite angles are supplementary

So the description does not guarantee that a trapezoid is isoceles for "Congruent bases".

When analyzing a scatterplot with a cluster, why should outliers generally be excluded when interpreting the relationship of the
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Outliers are often extreme values that are not as representative of the data set as the other points in the cluster. If the outliers are included, a description of the data set might be misrepresented.
