Every 365.25 days the Earth completes one revolution around the Sun. About how many degrees does the Earth travel each day?

A school authority claims that the average height of students is 178 cm. A researcher has taken a well-designed survey and his s

Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

d) The difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Population mean = 178 cm

the sample mean = 177.5 cm

the standard deviation = 2

the sample size = 25

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

Null hypothesis:

$H_o: \mu = 178$

Alternative hypothesis:

$H_1: \mu \neq 178$

The t-test statistics is determined by using the formula:

$t = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \dfrac{177.5 - 178}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{25}}}$

$t = \dfrac{-0.5}{\dfrac{2}{5}}}$

$\mathbf{t= -1.25}$

Degree of freedom df = n- 1

Degree of freedom df = 25 - 1

Degree of freedom df = 24

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05, the critical value = 2.064

Decision rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the test statistics is greater than the critical value at 0.05 level of significance

Conclusion: We fail to reject the null hypothesis since the test statistics is lesser than the critical value and we conclude that the difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small

nadya68 [22]

Answer:

A. The probability that a Millennial is married is 0.089 or 8.9%.

B. The probability that a Baby Boomer is single, never married is 0.03 or 3%.

C. The probability that one person selected randomly (female or male) is married is 0.513 or 51.3%

D. The probability that someone who is living with a partner, but not married is a Generation X is 0.025 or 2.5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information provided on the analysis table, we can answer the questions:

A. The probability that a Millennial is married is 0.089 or 8.9%.

B. The probability that a Baby Boomer is single, never married is 0.03 or 3%.

C. The probability that one person selected randomly (female or male) is married is 0.513 or 51.3% (Millennial 0.089 + Generation X 0.223 + Baby boomer 0.201)

D. The probability that someone who is living with a partner, but not married is a Generation X is 0.025 or 2.5%.

there are 800 seats in the varsity theater. during regular preformances, all seats cost $12 each. It costs the owner $275 to pay

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

The correct answers are the following:

A) P=12n-275

B) 124

C) Decrease by $100

Step-by-step explanation:

A) P=12n-275  - Each person (n) pays $12, then the cost/expense ($275) is subtracted from the income to get the profit.

B) 1,213=12n-275 - Plug in the value for P ($1,213).

1,488=12n - Add $275 to both sides.

124=n - Divide both sides by $12.

n=124  - This the number (n) of people that attended.

C) P=12n-375 - Change the value for expense to $375.

P=12(124)-375 - Plug in the value for n (124).

P=1488-375 - Simplify and find the difference.

P=1,113 - This is your profit.

1,113-1,213=-100  - $100 reduction/decrease of profit (or -$100 to profit)

Hope this helps!

For what real value of $v$ is $\frac{-21-\sqrt{301}}{10}$ a root of $5x^2+21x+v$?

Degger [83]

Answer:

v = 7

is the value for which

x = (-21 - √301)/10

is a solution to the quadratic equation

5x² + 21x + v = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

x = (-21 - √301)/10 .....................(1)

is a root of the quadratic equation

5x² + 21x + v = 0 ........................(2)

We want to find the value of v foe which the equation is true.

Consider the quadratic formula

x = [-b ± √(b² - 4av)]/2a ..................(3)

Comparing (3) with (2), notice that

b = 21

2a = 10

=> a = 10/2 = 5

and

b² - 4av = 301

=> 21² - 4(5)v = 301

-20v = 301 - 441

-20v = -140

v = -140/(-20)

v = 7

That is a = 5, b = 21, and v = 7

The equation is then

5x² + 21x + 7 = 0
