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.

If f(x)=3x+1 then f(a+h)-f(a)
Varvara68 [4.7K]
F(x) = 3x+1
put x = a+h
f(a+h)  = 3(a+h) + 1
f(a+h) = 3a + 3h + 1
put x = a
f(a) = 3a + 1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a + 3h + 1 -(3a+1)
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3a +3h + 1 - 3a -1
f(a+h)-f(a) = 3h

Monthly sales of an SUV model are expected to increase at the rate of S′1t2 = -24t 1&gt;3 SUVs per month, where t is time in mon
uysha [10]

The company will continue to manufacture this model for 19 months.

The question is ill-formatted. The understandable format is given below.

An SUV model's monthly sales are anticipated to rise at a rate of

S'(t)=-24^{1/3} SUVs each month, where "t" denotes the number of months and "S(t)" denotes the monthly sales of SUVs. When monthly sales of 300 SUVs are reached, the business intends to discontinue producing this model.

Find S if monthly sales of SUVs are 1,200 at time t=0 (t). How long will the business keep making this model?

Given S'(t)=-24^{1/3} ... ... (1)

Condition (1) at t=0; s(t) =1200

We find S(t)=300 then t=?

a) We find S(t)

from S'(t)=-24^{1/3}

\implies \frac{dS(t)}{dt}=-24t^{1/3} ~~[\because X'(t)=\frac{dX}{dt} \\\implies dS(t) = -24t^{1/3}dt\\

On Integrating both sides

S(t)=-18t^{4/3}+c ~...~...~(2)

Now, at t=0 then S(t)=1200

So, from (2)

1200=0+c

⇒c=1200

\thereforefrom eq (2)

S(t)=-18t^{4/3}+1200 ~...~...~(3)

b) Considering that the firm intends to cease production of this model once monthly sales exceed 300 SUVs.

So, take S(t)=300

from eq (2) 300=-18t^{4/3}+1200

t^{4/3}=\frac{1200-300}{18}\\=\frac{900}{18}=50\\\implies t=50^{3/4}\\\implies t=18.8030

Hence the company will continue 18.8020 months.
