Answer:
Since the calculated value of t =-0.427 does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude that there is enough evidence to show that mean difference in the age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is 25 months .
Step-by-step explanation:
The given data is
Difference d= -24 -12 -55 -15 -30 -60 -14 -21 -48 -12 -25 -53 -61 -69 -80
∑ d= -579
∑d²= 29871
1) Let the hypotheses be
H0: ud= 25 against the claim Ha: ud ≠25
H0 : mean difference in the age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is 25 months .
Ha: mean difference in the age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is not 25 months.
2) The degrees of freedom = n-1= 15-1= 14
3) The significance level is 0.05
4) The test statistic is
t= d`/sd/√n
The critical region is ║t║≤ t (0.025,14) = ±2.145
d`= ∑di/n= -579/15= -38.6
Sd= 23.178 (using calculators)
Therefore
t= d`/ sd/√n
t= -38.6/ 23.178√15
t= -1.655/3.872= -0.427
5) Since the calculated value of t =-0.427 does not fall in the critical region so we accept H0 and conclude that there is enough evidence to show that mean difference in the age of onset of symptoms and age of diagnosis is 25 months .
Answer: B, 5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
4+4+4+5+5+6+6+6+6+9=55
55/10=5.5
Let x be the number of treats bought
Let y be the pounds of food bought
25= 2y+x
Given that she has buys 9 pounds of dog food:
25= 2(9)+x
25=18 +x
25-18 =x
7=x
With the money she has left over, she can buy 7 treats.
Hope I helped :)
