Answer:

a) P(-t_o < t_7

Using the symmetrical property we can write this like this:

1-2P(t_7

We can solve for the probability like this:

2P(t_7

P(t_7

And we can find the value using the following excel code: "=T.INV(0.05,7)"

So on this case the answer would be t_o =\pm 1.895

b) For this case we can use the complement rule and we got:

1-P(t_7

We can solve for the probability and we got:

P(t_7

And we can use the following excel code to find the value"=T.INV(0.95;7)"

And the answer would be t_o = 1.895

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

The t distribution (Student’s t-distribution) is a "probability distribution that is used to estimate population parameters when the sample size is small (n<30) or when the population variance is unknown".

The shape of the t distribution is determined by its degrees of freedom and when the degrees of freedom increase the t distirbution becomes a normal distribution approximately.  

The degrees of freedom represent "the number of independent observations in a set of data. For example if we estimate a mean score from a single sample, the number of independent observations would be equal to the sample size minus one."

Solution to the problem

For this case we know that t \sim t(df=7)

And we want to find:

Part a

P(|t|

We can rewrite the expression using properties for the absolute value like this:

P(-t_o < t_7

Using the symmetrical property we can write this like this:

1-2P(t_7

We can solve for the probability like this:

2P(t_7

P(t_7

And we can find the value using the following excel code: "=T.INV(0.05,7)"

So on this case the answer would be t_o =\pm 1.895

Part b

P(t>t_o) =0.05

For this case we can use the complement rule and we got:

1-P(t_7

We can solve for the probability and we got:

P(t_7

And we can use the following excel code to find the value"=T.INV(0.95;7)"

And the answer would be t_o = 1.895

What is f(-2) of the function given below? *<br> f(x) = 3x2 - 4x + 1
slava [35]

Answer:

f(-2) = 21

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

f(x) = 3x² - 4x + 1

f(-2) is x = -2

Step 2: Substitute and Evaluate

f(-2) = 3(-2)² - 4(-2) + 1

f(-2) = 3(4) + 8 + 1

f(-2) = 12 + 9

f(-2) = 21

How can a translation and a reflection be used to map ΔHJK to ΔLMN? Translate K to N and reflect across the line containing HJ.
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

<u>Translate K to N and reflect across the line containing JK. </u>

Step-by-step explanation:

The rest of the question is the attached figure.

From the figure, we can deduce the following:

∠K = ∠N

JK = MN

HK = LN

So, N will be the image of K

By translating K to N, The segment JK will over-lap the segment MN,

Then, we need to reflect the point H across the the line containing JK to get the point L

So, the translation and a reflection that will be used to map ΔHJK to ΔLMN:

<u>Translate K to N and reflect across the line containing JK. </u>
