Answer:
No, They are not equivalent
Step-by-step explanation:
The two expressions are only said to be equivalent if they are the same regardless of whatever value the variable(s) is.
The variable in this question is x.
To prove this, we equate both expressions:
This shows that they have the same value ONLY when x is 1.
This is why Andre says that they are equivalent, but they are not.
Answer:
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the population mean is greater than 100
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>: We state the hypothesis and identify the claim
and
(claim)
<u>Step 2</u>: Calculate the test value.
<u>Step 3</u>: Find the P-value. The p-value obtained from a calculator is using d.f=39 and test-value 1.126 is 0.134
<u>Step 4</u>: We fail to reject the null hypothesis since P-value is greater that the alpha level. (0.134>0.05).
<u>Step 5</u>: There is enough evidence to support the claim that the population mean is greater than 100.
<u>Alternatively</u>: We could also calculate the critical value to obtain +1.685 for and d.f=39 and compare to the test-value:
The critical value (1.685>1.126) falls in the non-rejection region. See attachment.
NB: The t- distribution must be used because the population standard deviation is not known.
