Suppose that Jean studied for the Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) using a well-known preparation class and was thrille

d to receive a total score of 740. Her friend Eric, however, thinks she would have scored just as well without the class. To test the efficacy of the class, they obtain a small but random sample of 17 test results from other students using the same class. This sample's average is 559.42 with a standard deviation of 108.03. In comparison, the national average was 550.12. Assume the population's results are normally distributed but that its standard deviation is not known. Jean and Eric decide to perform a two-tailed t‑test at a significance level of α = 0.05. How many degrees of freedom should they use in their calculations? df = ___.

Answer:

Her friend Eric, however, thinks she would have scored just as well without the class, is proved at 5% significance level

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sample size is 17 and distribution is normal

Since sima, population std dev is not known, we can use only t test.

Set hypotheses as

H_0:\bar x= 550.12\\H_a: \bar x>550.12

(Right tailed test)

\bar x= 559.42\\s =108.03\\\mu = 550.12

Mean difference = 559.42-550.12=9.30

Std error of sample mean = s/square root of n

= \frac{108.03}{\sqrt{n-1} } =27.01

Test statistic t = mean diff/std error

= 0.3443

df = 16

p value = 0.369

Since p >0.05, at 5% significant level we conclude that there is no significant difference because of attending preparatin class.

A circle is a geometric object that has symmetry about the vertical and horizontal lines through its center. When the circle is a unit circle (of radius 1) centered on the origin of the x-y plane, points in the first quadrant can be reflected across the x- or y- axes (or both) to give points in the other quadrants.

That is, if the terminal ray of an angle intersects the unit circle in the first quadrant, the point of intersection reflected across the y-axis will give an angle whose measure is the original angle subtracted from the measure of a half-circle. Since the measure of a half-circle is π radians, the reflection of the angle π/6 radians will be the angle π-π/6 = 5π/6 radians.

Reflecting 1st-quadrant angles across the origin into the third quadrant adds π radians to their measure. Reflecting them across the x-axis into the 4th quadrant gives an angle whose measure is 2π radians minus the measure of the original angle.

Suppose the population of a certain city is 5769 . It is expected to decrease to 4963 in 50 years. Find the percent decrease.
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

≈ 13.98%

Step-by-step explanation:

As the total population is 5769 in the initial period, you must find the percentage that repesents 4963 that is the expected population.

4963/5769=0.8602

Then you multiply it by 100 to transform it into percentage

0.8602*100=86.02%

Then it's just necesary to subtract that from 100% and that numbers is the percentage of decrease

100% - 86.02% = 13.98%

Also you can say that is approximately  14%
