Watching tv: in 2012, the general social survey asked a sample of 1310 people how much time they spend\t watching tv each day. T

he mean number of hours was 2.8 with a standard deviation of 2.6. A sociologist claims that people watch a mean of 3 hours of TV per day. Do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean hours of TV watched per day is less the claim? Use the a=0.5 level of significance and the P-value method with the TI-84 Plus calculator.
(a) State the appropriate null and alternate hypotheses.

H0: Mu = 3
H1: Mu < 3

This hypothesis test is a _____ test.

(b) Compute the P-value. Round the answer to at least four decimal places

P-value =

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 3  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 3  

This hypothesis test is a left tailed test.

b) t=\frac{2.8-3}{\frac{2.6}{\sqrt{1310}}}=-2.784  

The p value for this case can be calculated with this probability:  

p_v =P(z  

We can conduct the test with the Ti84 using the following steps:

STAT>TESTS>T-test>Stats

We input the value \mu_o =3, \bar X= 2.8, s_x = 2.6, n=1310 and for the alternative we select < \mu_o. Then press Calculate.

And we got the same results.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=2.8 represent the sample mean

s=2.6 represent the population standard deviation  

n=1310 sample size  

\mu_o =3 represent the value to test

\alpha=0.5 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value for the test

Part a) System of hypothesis

We want to test if the true mean is less than 3, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 3  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 3  

This hypothesis test is a left tailed test.

Part b

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

t=\frac{2.8-3}{\frac{2.6}{\sqrt{1310}}}=-2.784  

The p value for this case can be calculated with this probability:  

p_v =P(z  

We can conduct the test with the Ti84 using the following steps:

STAT>TESTS>T-test>Stats

We input the value \mu_o =3, \bar X= 2.8, s_x = 2.6, n=1310 and for the alternative we select < \mu_o. Then press Calculate.

And we got the same results.

Find the value of x picture attached
aev [14]

Answer:

<em>x = 10</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

These angles are <em>same side interior angles</em>.

This means that (11x + 10) + (10x - 40) = 180

Solve for x:

11x + 10 + 10x - 40 = 180

21x - 30 = 180

      +30     +30

21x = 210

/21      /21

<em>x = 10</em>

HELP PLS WITH PYTHAGOREAN THEOREM
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

100 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the diagonal ( or hypotenuse)

We can use the Pythagorean theorem

a^2+b^2 = c^2  where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse

80^2 + 60^2 = c^2

6400+3600 = c^2

10000 = c^2

Taking the square root of each side

sqrt(10000) = sqrt(c^2)

100 = c
