Answer:

The P-value is between 2.5% and 5% from the t-table.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a random sample of 16 students selected from the student body of a large university had an average age of 25 years and a standard deviation of 2 years.

Let \mu = <u><em>true average age of all the students at the university.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 24 years     {means that the average age of all the students at the university is less than or equal to 24}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 24 years     {means that the average age of all the students at the university is significantly more than 24}

The test statistics that will be used here is <u>One-sample t-test statistics</u> because we don't know about the population standard deviation;

                               T.S.  =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~   t_n_-_1

where, \bar X = sample average age = 25 years

             s = sample standard deviation = 2 years

             n = sample of students = 16

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u> =  \frac{25-24}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{16} } }  ~  t_1_5  

                                     =  2  

The value of t-test statistics is 2.

<u>Also, the P-value of test-statistics is given by; </u>

            P-value = P( t_1_5 > 2) = 0.034 {from the t-table}

The P-value is between 2.5% and 5% from the t-table.

689x+47x-89 dose anyone know how to solve this?
Korvikt [17]

Answer:

736x-89

Step-by-step explanation:

i think all you can do here is add the numbers that have an X in them so adding 689x+47x=736x and you leave the 89 so it becomes 736x-89

Students are making ornaments and each takes 1 2 of a piece of Bristol board. They go to the cupboard and find 1 1 2 pieces of B
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer: 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Feom the question, we are informed that students are making ornaments and each takes 1/2 of a piece of Bristol board and that they go to the cupboard and find 1 1/2 pieces of Bristol board.

The number of ornaments that they can make will be calculated by dividing 1 1/2 by 1/2. This will be:

= 1 1/2 ÷ 1/2

= 3/2 ÷ 1/2

= 3/2 × 2/1

= 3

They can make 3 ornaments

Can someone please help me? I don't understand question d.
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the previous answers you know the angles and side lengths of the triangle:

α = 60°

Ф = 30°

and the side lengths:

1,2 and √3.

Remember:

sin = opposite / hypotenuse

cos = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan = opposite / adjacent

Now you can read off from the triangle:

sin 30° = 1/2

cos 60° = 1/2

sin 60° = √3/2

cos 30° = √3/2

tan 30° = 1/√3

tan 60° = √3

If one root of the equation is 4x^2- 2x+p-4 be the reciprocal of other. then find the value of p​
SashulF [63]

Answer:

p = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let one root of the eqn. be alpha . Other root is 1/alpha .

We know that product of both roots of an quadratic eqn. is c/a where "c" is the co-efficient of the constant  & "a" is the co-efficient of x^2.

Here "c" is p-4 & "a" is 4. And the product of roots is 1 ( ∵ prdouct of a number and its reciprocal is 1 )

\frac{c}{a} = 1\\=> \frac{p - 4}{4} = 1\\=> p - 4 = 4\\=> p = 4 + 4 = 8
