A unit vector in the direction of a would be the vector a multiplied by a factor such that the length of vector a is unity.
The magnitude of a is given by:
|a|
=sqrt(4^2+3^2+2^2)   [ I got lazy instead of writing (-4)^2+(-3)^2+2^2]
=sqrt(29).

So the univector is a/sqrt(29), or (-4/sqrt(29),-3/sqrt(29), 2/sqrt(29), or simply (-4,-3,2)/sqrt(29).

Meaghan and Lily are dividing 43.61 by 7. Meaghan says that the first digit of the quotient is in the ones place. Lily says it i
Ivahew [28]

Answer: Meaghan is right.

Step-by-step explanation:

For a number like:

123.45

the tens place would be the "2" (second number at the left of the decimal point)

The ones place would be the "3" (first number at the left of the decimal point)

Let's suppose that Lily is correct.

Then the quotient of:

43.61/7

Will be a number with two digits in the left of the decimal point.

The smallest number that meets this condition, is the number 10.

Then let's see:

7*10 = 70

then:

70/7 = 10

and:

43.61 < 70

(70 is larger than 43.61)

then:

43.61/7 < 70/7 = 10

Then:

(43.61/7) < 10

This means that our quotient is smaller than 10, then the first digit of the quotient can not be on the tens place.

Then Meaghan is the correct one.

We also could perform the quotient to find:

43.61/7 = 6.23

So yes, Meaghan is correct.

Test the claim that LeBron James and Steph Curry average the same amount of points per game, on average.

When the variances are known and the sample size is high, a z-test is used to assess if two population means vary. The mean of the two players is not the same.

<h3>What is a Z-test?</h3>

When the variances are known and the sample size is high, a z-test is used to assess if two population means vary.

In order to execute an appropriate z-test, the test statistic is expected to have a normal distribution, and nuisance factors such as standard deviation should be known.

(1) Null and Alternative Hypotheses

The following null and alternative hypotheses need to be tested:

\begin{array}{ccl} H_0: \mu_1 & = & \mu_2 \\\\ H_a: \mu_1 & \ne & \mu_2 \end{array}

This corresponds to a two-tailed test, and a z-test for two means, with known population standard deviations, will be used.

(2) Rejection Region

Based on the information provided, the significance level is α=0.05, and the critical value for a two-tailed test is z_c = 1.96

The rejection region for this two-tailed test is R={z:∣z∣>1.96}

(3) Test Statistics

The z-statistic is computed as follows:

\begin{array}{ccl} z & = & \displaystyle \frac{\bar X_1 - \bar X_2}{\sqrt{ {\sigma_1^2/n_1} + {\sigma_2^2/n_2} }} \\\\ & = & \displaystyle \frac{ 30.1 - 25.5}{\sqrt{ {9.112^2/70} + {12.602^2/70} }}  \\\\ & = & 2.475 \end{array}

\begin{array}{ccl} z & = & \displaystyle \frac{\bar X_1 - \bar X_2}{\sqrt{ {\sigma_1^2/n_1} + {\sigma_2^2/n_2} }} \\\\ & = & \displaystyle \frac{ 30.1 - 25.5}{\sqrt{ {9.112^2/70} + {12.602^2/70} }}  \\\\ & = & 2.475 \end{array}

(4.) The decision about the null hypothesis

Since it is observed that |z| = 2.475 > z_c = 1.96, it is then concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.

Using the P-value approach: The p-value is p = 0.0133p=0.0133, and since p = 0.0133 < 0.05p=0.0133<0.05, it is concluded that the null hypothesis is rejected.

(5.) As it is concluded that the null hypothesis H₀ is rejected. Therefore, there is enough evidence to claim that the population mean μ1  is different than μ2.

Hence, the mean of the two players is not the same.
