Answer:

She can expect 400 tails.

Step-by-step explanation:

When doing a coin toss, the theoretical probability of getting either heads or tails is 1/2. If we apply this fraction to the 800 total simulated tosses, she should get about 400, more or less.

What are evidence that the himalayas mountains are still rising

xeze [42]

Answer:

The Himalayas are still rising by more than 1 cm per year as India continues to move northwards into Asia, which explains the occurrence of shallow focus earthquakes in the region today. However the forces of weathering and erosion are lowering the Himalayas at about the same rate.

A study is conducted to determine if a newly designed text book is more helpful to learning the material than the old edition. T

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 75, the system of hypothesis are :

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 75$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 75$

A. One-Tailed

$z=\frac{82.2-75}{\frac{10.4}{\sqrt{10}}}=2.189$

$p_v =P(z>2.189)=0.0143$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

We have the following data: 84 94 80 88 77 68 90 74 96 71

We can calculate the sample mean with the following formula:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

And replacing we got:

$\bar X=82.2$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=10.4$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=10$ sample size

$\mu_o =75$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.01$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 75, the system of hypothesis are :

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 75$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 75$

A. One-Tailed

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{82.2-75}{\frac{10.4}{\sqrt{10}}}=2.189$

P-value

Since is a ONE-TAILED test the p value would given by:

$p_v =P(z>2.189)=0.0143$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

Explain how to use long division to divide two polynomials.

Pani-rosa [81]

1. Divide the first term of the numerator by the first term of the denominator, and put that in the answer.
2. Multiply the denominator by that answer, put that below the numerator.
3. Subtract to create a new polynomial.

Prove that the value of expression 9^7+3^12 is divisible by 90.

snow_tiger [21]

9^7=4782969 and 3^12=531441 and when you add 4782969 and 531441 together you get 5314410. Then divide that number by 90 and get 59049
