In the form of a paragraph, explain in complete sentences, your answers to the following questions. Include the final answer in

your explanation. Complete your work in the space provided or upload a file that can display math symbols if your work requires it. Lisa is an avid runner and is training for a marathon. This week, over a span of six days, she ran a total of 38.4 miles. The distances, in miles, that Lisa ran throughout the week are as follows: 3.2, 7.5, 9.8, 11.5, 2.9, 3.5. What was the average distance of each run? Lisa's goal for this week is to run an average of 6 miles per day. How many miles does she need to run tomorrow (the 7th day) in order to achieve her goal of 6 miles per day for the week?

Lisa is an avid runner and is training for a marathon, so she runs everyday to achieve this purpose. In this way, she goes out to run for six days, so we have the following data set regarding the miles she runs:

1st day  = 3.2    miles
2nd day = 7.5    miles
3rd day  = 9.8    miles
4th day  = 11.5  miles
5th day  = 2.9    miles
6th day  = 3.5    miles

<span>Finally, she ran a total of:

3.2+7.5+9.8+11.5+2.9+3.5 = 38.4 miles

</span><span>What was the average distance of each run? 

This result can be get as the sum of each run (or the </span>total of miles she run<span>) divided by the numbers of days she ran.

</span>A=\frac{38.4}{6}=6.4mi

<span>Lisa's goal for this week is to run an average of 6 miles per day. How many miles does she need to run tomorrow (the 7th day) in order to achieve her goal of 6 miles per day for the week?

Let's name x the distance she must run tomorrow. Therefore, the equation for this purpose is given as follows:

</span>\frac{3.2+7.5+9.8+11.5+2.9+3.5+x}{7}=6

∴ \frac{38.4+x}{7}=6

Isolating x:

38.4+x=42

∴ x=42-38.4=3.6

Therefore, she need to run:

\boxed{3.6mi} in order to achieve the goal of 6 miles per day.

Answer:

a) Null hypothesis: \mu_A =\mu_B =\mu C

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_i \neq \mu_j, i,j=A,B,C

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2 =20.5  

SS_{between}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2 =12.333  

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2 =8.16667  

And we have this property  

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}  

The degrees of freedom for the numerator on this case is given by df_{num}=df_{within}=k-1=3-1=2 where k =3 represent the number of groups.

The degrees of freedom for the denominator on this case is given by df_{den}=df_{between}=N-K=3*6-3=15.

And the total degrees of freedom would be df=N-1=3*6 -1 =15

The mean squares between groups are given by:

MS_{between}= \frac{SS_{between}}{k-1}= \frac{12.333}{2}=6.166

And the mean squares within are:

MS_{within}= \frac{SS_{within}}{N-k}= \frac{8.1667}{15}=0.544

And the F statistic is given by:

F = \frac{MS_{betw}}{MS_{with}}= \frac{6.166}{0.544}= 11.326

And the p value is given by:

p_v= P(F_{2,15} >11.326) = 0.00105

So then since the p value is lower then the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we conclude that we have at least on mean different between the 3 groups.

b) (\bar X_B -\bar X_C) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_B}{n_B} +\frac{s^2_C}{n_C}}

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n_B +n_C -2= 6+6-2=10

The confidence level is 99% so then \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005 and the critical value would be: t_{\alpha/2}=3.169

The confidence interval would be given by:

(43.333 -41.5) - 3.169 \sqrt{\frac{0.6667}{6} +\frac{0.7}{6}}= 0.321

(43.333 -41.5) + 3.169 \sqrt{\frac{0.6667}{6} +\frac{0.7}{6}}=3.345

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

Analysis of variance (ANOVA) "is used to analyze the differences among group means in a sample".  

The sum of squares "is the sum of the square of variation, where variation is defined as the spread between each individual value and the grand mean"

Part a  

Null hypothesis: \mu_A =\mu_B =\mu C

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_i \neq \mu_j, i,j=A,B,C

If we assume that we have 3 groups and on each group from j=1,\dots,6 we have 6 individuals on each group we can define the following formulas of variation:  

SS_{total}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x)^2 =20.5  

SS_{between}=SS_{model}=\sum_{j=1}^p n_j (\bar x_{j}-\bar x)^2 =12.333  

SS_{within}=SS_{error}=\sum_{j=1}^p \sum_{i=1}^{n_j} (x_{ij}-\bar x_j)^2 =8.16667  

And we have this property  

SST=SS_{between}+SS_{within}  

The degrees of freedom for the numerator on this case is given by df_{num}=df_{within}=k-1=3-1=2 where k =3 represent the number of groups.

The degrees of freedom for the denominator on this case is given by df_{den}=df_{between}=N-K=3*6-3=15.

And the total degrees of freedom would be df=N-1=3*6 -1 =15

The mean squares between groups are given by:

MS_{between}= \frac{SS_{between}}{k-1}= \frac{12.333}{2}=6.166

And the mean squares within are:

MS_{within}= \frac{SS_{within}}{N-k}= \frac{8.1667}{15}=0.544

And the F statistic is given by:

F = \frac{MS_{betw}}{MS_{with}}= \frac{6.166}{0.544}= 11.326

And the p value is given by:

p_v= P(F_{2,15} >11.326) = 0.00105

So then since the p value is lower then the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we conclude that we have at least on mean different between the 3 groups.

Part b

For this case the confidence interval for the difference woud be given by:

(\bar X_B -\bar X_C) \pm t_{\alpha/2} \sqrt{\frac{s^2_B}{n_B} +\frac{s^2_C}{n_C}}

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n_B +n_C -2= 6+6-2=10

The confidence level is 99% so then \alpha=1-0.99=0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005 and the critical value would be: t_{\alpha/2}=3.169

The confidence interval would be given by:

(43.333 -41.5) - 3.169 \sqrt{\frac{0.6667}{6} +\frac{0.7}{6}}= 0.321

(43.333 -41.5) + 3.169 \sqrt{\frac{0.6667}{6} +\frac{0.7}{6}}=3.345

What is the slope of the line whose equation is 2x−4y=10 ?
Olenka [21]

solve for y

2x−4y=10  

-2x       -2x      subtract -2x from both sides

-4y = -2x +10

-4            -4    Divide both sides by -4 (coefficient on y)

y = -2/-4x  + 10/-4

y = 1/2x - 5/2


the slope is the number on the x (coefficient)

and its 1/2
