In a completely randomized experimental design, three brands of paper towels were tested for their ability to absorb water. Equa

arlik [135]

Answer:

Yes. At this significance level, there is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete:

The significance level is 0.05.

The data is:

Brand X: 91, 100, 88, 89

Brand Y: 99, 96, 94, 99

Brand Z: 83, 88, 89, 76

We have to check if there is a significant difference between the absorbency rating of each brand.

Null hypothesis: all means are equal

$H_0:\mu_x=\mu_y=\mu_z$

Alternative hypothesis: the means are not equal

$H_a: \mu_x\neq\mu_y\neq\mu_z$

We have to apply a one-way ANOVA

We start by calculating the standard deviation for each brand:

$s_x^2=30,\,\,s_y^2=6,\,\,s_z^2=35.33$

Then, we calculate the mean standard error (MSE):

$MSE=(\sum s_i^2)/a=(30+6+35.33)/3=71.33/3=23.78$

Now, we calculate the mean square between (MSB), but we previously have to know the sample means and the mean of the sample means:

$M_x=92,\,\,M_y=97,\,\,M_z=84\\\\M=(92+97+84)/3=91$

The MSB is then:

$s^2=\dfrac{\sum(M_i-M)^2}{N-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{(92-91)^2+(97-91)^2+(84-91)^2}{3-1}\\\\\\s^2=\dfrac{1+36+49}{2}=\dfrac{86}{2}=43\\\\\\\\MSB=ns^2=4*43=172$

Now we calculate the F statistic as:

$F=MSB/MSE=172/23.78=7.23$

The degrees of freedom of the numerator are:

$dfn=a-1=3-1=2$

The degrees of freedom of the denominator are:

$dfd=N-a=3*4-3=12-3=9$

The P-value of F=7.23, dfn=2 and dfd=9 is:

$P-value=P(F>7.23)=0.01342$

As the P-value (0.013) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected.

There is evidence to support the claim that there is a difference in the ability of the brands to absorb water.

If the coordinates of point A are (8 , 0) and the coordinates of point B are (3 , 7), the y-intercept of AB is ___

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

a) y-intercept of AB is 56/5

b) equation of line CD is:

y = -7/5x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

a) If the coordinates of point A are (8 , 0) and the coordinates of point B are (3 , 7), the y-intercept of AB is ___

We are given the points A(8,0) and point B (3,7)

We need to find y-intercept i.e b

Finding slope of points A and B = y₂ - y₁/x₂ - x₁

=7-0/3-8

=7/-5

= - 7/5

So, finding y intercept b by using equation

y = mx+b

And considering point A (8,0) x = 8 and y = 0 and m = -7/5

0 = 8(-7/5) + b

0 = -56/5 + b

=> b = 56/5

So, y-intercept of AB is 56/5

b) If the coordinates of point D are (5 , 5), the equation of line CD is y = __

Since AB || CD

both will have same slope

i.e m = -7/5

we need to find y-intercept given point D (5,5)

y = mx+b

5 = -7/5(5)+b

5 = -7 + b

=> b = 5+7

=> b = 12

So, equation of line CD is:

y = -7/5x + 12
