Let the age of the son be x, then the age of the father = 6x
x + 6x = 42
7x = 42
x = 42/7 = 6
Therefore the age of the son is 6 while the age of the father is 6(6) = 36.

A survey of 35 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height. The difference between reporte

Over [174]

Answer:

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

You're testing the claim that the mean difference is greater than 0.7.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is of 0.7 or less, that is:

$H_0: \mu \leq 0.7$

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean difference is greater than 0.7, that is:

$H_1: \mu > 0.7$

The test statistic is:

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 0.7$

A survey of 35 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height.

This means that $n = 35$

From the sample, the mean difference was 0.95, with a standard deviation of 0.44.

This means that $X = 0.95, s = 0.44$

Calculate the test statistic

$t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$t = \frac{0.95 - 0.7}{\frac{0.44}{\sqrt{35}}}$

$t = 3.36$

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

-1 3/5 divided by -2/3 <br> Write as a mixed number

mihalych1998 [28]

Answer:

2 2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal of the second fraction. First convert the first into the improper fraction -8/5. Now because when dividing fractions you keep the first on, change to multiplication and flip the second equation you have

-8/5 x -3/2=?

Now you just multiply across as you would and normal time multiplying fractions. Remember a negative divided by a negative is a positive! And not after you keep, change, flip and multiply you are left with 24/10. Which is equal to 12/5 but you wanted a mixed number so we convert it into 2 2/5
