g A popular theory is that presidential candidates have an advantage if they are taller than their main opponents. Listed are he

ights​ (in centimeters) of randomly selected presidents along with the heights of their main opponents. Complete parts​ (a) and​ (b) below. Height (cm )of President 191 180 180 182 197 180 Height (cm )of Main Opponent 166 179 168 183 194 186 a. Use the sample data with a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that for the population of heights for presidents and their main​ opponents, the differences have a mean greater than 0 cm. In this​ example, mu Subscript d is the mean value of the differences d for the population of all pairs of​ data, where each individual difference d is defined as the​ president's height minus their main​ opponent's height. What are the null and alternative hypotheses for the hypothesis​ test?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Corresponding heights of presidents and height of their main opponents form matched pairs.

The data for the test are the differences between the heights.

μd = the​ president's height minus their main​ opponent's height.

President's height. main opp diff

191. 166. 25

180. 179. 1

180. 168. 12

182. 183. - 1

197. 194. 3

180. 186. - 6

Sample mean, xd

= (25 + 1 + 12 - 1 + 3 + 6)/6 = 5.67

xd = 5.67

Standard deviation = √(summation(x - mean)²/n

n = 6

Summation(x - mean)² = (25 - 5.67)^2 + (1 - 5.67)^2 + (12 - 5.67)^2+ (- 1 - 5.67)^2 + (3 - 5.67)^2 + (- 6 - 5.67)^2 = 623.3334

Standard deviation = √(623.3334/6 sd = 10.19

For the null hypothesis

H0: μd ≥ 0

For the alternative hypothesis

H1: μd < 0

The distribution is a students t. Therefore, degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 6 - 1 = 5

The formula for determining the test statistic is

t = (xd - μd)/(sd/√n)

t = (5.67 - 0)/(10.19/√6)

t = 1.36

We would determine the probability value by using the t test calculator.

p = 0.12

Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.12, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Therefore, at 5% significance level, we can conclude that for the population of heights for presidents and their main​ opponents, the differences have a mean greater than 0 cm.

Select two statements that are true about the equation y+4=-8(x-2)
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y + 4 = -8(x - 2)

I dont know the statements that u have but maybe I can guess one...or two

slope = -8

points used were : (2,-4)

y + 4 = -8(x - 2)

y + 4 = -8x + 16

y = -8x + 16 - 4

y = -8x + 12 ............slope intercept form

8x + y = 12 .......standard form

x intercept = (3/2,0)

y intercept = (0,12)

any of that answer ur question ?

9966 [12]

Answer: There is a strong association between age and weight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient (r) is used to describe the relationship between two variables.

-1\leq r\leq1

If r lies between -1 to -0.5 or 0.5 to 1, then there is strong association between them.

Here,  Variables: Age and weight.

correlation coefficient = 0.512

That means, there is a strong association between age and weight.

Write in point-slope form an equation of the line that passes through the point (−2,4) with slope −12.
alexgriva [62]

Answer: y - 4 = -12 ( x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in point - slope form is given as :

y-y_{1} = m(x-x_{1} )

Where m is the slope and (x_{1} , y_{1}) is the given point

substituting the values into the formula , we have:

y - 4 = -12 ( x - {-2})

y - 4 = -12 ( x + 2)
