To find an average you take the numbers to be averaged and add them together then You take the number and divide it by the number of numbers, in this case 4, and that gives you the average.
on this problem you want to do the opposite. you know the average she wants, an 87, so you multiply it by 4. 87*4=348. then you add the three numbers you have (88,81 and 87) and you get 256.
then you subtract 256 from 348 and you get 92. 92 is your answer to check just add 87+81+88+92=348
348/4=87
87 was the average she wanted.
Hope this helped! good luck :)

sample daat reflects shipments received from 3 different vendors Vendor Defective Acceptable 1 16 133 2 25 74 3 24 187 what is c
Sergeu [11.5K]
Question: W<span>hat is the correct hypothesis to determine if quality is associated with vendor?

By looking at other resources, I have found the choices given for this question. They are the following:

a. Null</span>: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are independent; Alternative: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are dependent.
b. Null: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are dependent; Alternative: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are independent.

The test that would be applicable for this type of data would be the Chi-Square Test for Independence. As the name implies, the null hypothesis should be that the two factors are independent since that will be what we will be testing for.

ANSWER: a. Null: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are independent; Alternative: Quality and source of shipment (vendor) are dependent.

Question: Calculate the value of the test statistic.

Please refer to the attached document for the complete computation for this part. Generally, we need to find the expected value for each cell in the table and perform some calculation explained in the document.

ANSWER: The test statistic is 12.80.

Question: S<span>pecify decision rule at the 1% significance level.

We can get the critical value for Chi-square tests by first looking for the degree of freedom. We can get the df by evaluating the following expression: (rows-1)*(columns-1). In our case, the number of columns is 2 and the number of rows is 3. The df is therefore (2-1)(3-1)=(1)(2)=2.

We then look at a table to determine what the value at the 1% significance level and df of 2 is.

ANSWER: We reject the null hypothesis if the test statistic is greater than the critical value which is 9.2103.

Question: What is your conclusion?
</span>
Since the test statistic (12.80) is greater than the critical value (9.2103), we can therefore tell that it is in the area for rejection.

Thus, we reject the null hypothesis.

ANSWER:
There is enough evidence to conclude that the quality and source of shipment (vendor) are NOT independent.

What is the domain and range of the following function
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

domain: (–∞,∞)    or  all real numbers

range: (–∞,∞)       or  all real numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

domain is left to right (x-axis). looking at the graph, as you go from left to right, the x-values are infinitely getting more negative and positive.

range is bottom to top (y-axis). as you go from bottom to top, the y-values are infinitely getting more negative and positive.
