5x = 45

Assume the general population gets an average of 7 hours of sleep per night. You randomly select 45 college students and survey

tekilochka [14]

Answer:

a) ii. This is a left-tailed test.

b) -1.59

c) -1.301

d) i. reject null hypothesis

e) Option i) The data supports the claim that college students get less sleep than the general population.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 7 hours

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 6.87 hours

Sample size, n = 45

Alpha, α = 0.10

Sample standard deviation, s = 0.55 hours

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 7\text{ hours}\\H_A: \mu < 7\text{ hours}$

a) We use one-tailed(left) t test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{6.87 - 7}{\frac{0.55}{\sqrt{45}} } =-1.59$

c) Now,

$t_{critical} \text{ at 0.10 level of significance, 44 degree of freedom } = -1.301$

Since,

$t_{stat} < t_{critical}$

d) We fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it.

We accept the alternate hypothesis and conclude that mean number of hours of sleep for all college students is less than 7 hours.

e) Option i) The data supports the claim that college students get less sleep than the general population.

Select all number combinations that COULD make a triangle

tester [92]

Answer:

2 cm, 9 cm, 10 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To know if a combination is a triangle all you have to do is see if the combinations add up to 180

(2)(9)(10)=180 therefore it is a triangle.

All the other angles do not add up to 180 so they can't be triangles!!

(4)(10)(3) =120

(5)(6)(11) =330

(4)(5)(7) =140

In A 4 year period, About 80,000 acres of coastal wetlands in United States are lost each year. what integer represents the tota

mixer [17]

we are given

In A 4 year period, About 80,000 acres of coastal wetlands in United States are lost each year.

so, total area =80000 acres

total time = 4 years

now, we can use formula

total change in wetlands = ( total area)/(total time)

now, we can plug values

total change in wetlands is

$=\frac{80000}{4} acre/year$

$=20000 acre/year$ ................Answer

Through: (6, 2), perpendicular to<br> y = -x-5 <br> in slope intercept form

True [87]

Answer:

y = x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x-5

Slope of line is -1.

Slope of perpendicular to line is 1.

Point-slope equation for line of slope 1 that passes through (6,2):

y-2 = 1(x-6)

Rearrange equation to slope-intercept form:

y = 1(x-6) + 2

y = x-4
