In statistical methods, the significance level is a value that is used as a criterion for rejecting a null hypothesis. It used by first looking at the differences between the experimental results and from there the null hypothesis would be determined. Then, we assume that the null hypothesis is true, the probability of the differences is computed by using statistical tools. If the computed probability is less than or equal to the value of the significance level, then you conclude that the null hypothesis should be rejected and that the results are statistically significant. Usually, a significance level of 1% or 5% is used.

Answer:

The significance level determines the critical region of the hypothesis test. A significance level of 10% means that there is a 10% probability of rejecting the null hypothesis incorrectly.

Use the distance formula.

$\sqrt{( x_{2} - x_{1} )^2 + (y_{2} - y_{1})^2}$

Points S and W.
$\sqrt{(3)^2 + (2)^2}$

$\sqrt{9+4}$

$\sqrt{13}$

~3.6

Points S and T
$\sqrt{(3 - 0)^2 + (-2 - 0)^2}$

$\sqrt{(3)^2 + (-2)^2}$

$\sqrt{9+4}$

$\sqrt{13}$

~3.6

Points T and U
$\sqrt{(3 - 2)^2 + (-2 + 5)^2}$

$\sqrt{(1)^2 + (3)^2}$

$\sqrt{1+9}$

$\sqrt{10}$

~3.1

Points U and V
$\sqrt{(2+2)^2 + (-5 + 5)^2}$

$\sqrt{(4)^2 + (0)^2}$

$\sqrt{16}$

~4

Points V and W
$\sqrt{(-2+3)^2 + (-5 + 2)^2}$

$\sqrt{(1)^2 + (-3)^2}$

$\sqrt{2+9}$

$\sqrt{11}$

~3.3

Add all these together.

3.3 + 3.1 + 4 + 3.1 + 3.6

Below is the normal distribution curve for height (inches) of NBA basketball players.

VladimirAG [237]

Answer: standard deviation = 8

This is because mu = 75 is the mean, which is at the very exact center of this distribution. One space to the right is 83, which is 83-75 = 8 units away from the center. This distance is exactly one standard deviation. We can say "83 is one standard deviation larger than 75".

Or you could note the distance from 67 to 75 is also 8, because 75-67 = 8. Each tickmark represents stepping one standard deviation in distance.
