A researcher was interested in comparing the resting pulse rates of people who exercise regularly and people who do not exercise

regularly. Independent simple random samples of 16 people ages 30 dash 40 who do not exercise regularly and 12 people ages 30 dash 40 who do exercise regularly were​ selected, and the resting pulse rate​ (in beats per​ minute) of each person was measured. The summary statistics are to the right. Apply the nonpooled​ t-interval procedure to obtain a​ 95% confidence interval for the​ difference, mu 1 minus mu 2​, between the mean pulse rate of people who do not exercise and the mean pulse rate of people who do exercise. Assume that the requirements for using the procedure are satisfied and round to two decimal places.

Answer:

We Reject H₀ if t calculated > t tabulated

But in this case,

0.83 is not greater than 2.056

Therefore, we failed to reject H₀

There is no difference between the mean pulse rate of people who do not exercise and the mean pulse rate of people who do exercise.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the attached data.

The Null and Alternate hypothesis is given by

Null hypotheses = H₀: μ₁ = μ₂

Alternate hypotheses = H₁: μ₁ ≠ μ₂

The test statistic is given by

$ t = \frac{\bar{x}_1  - \bar{x}_2}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} } }  $

Where \bar{x}_1 is the sample mean of people who do not exercise regularly.

Where \bar{x}_2 is the sample mean of people who do exercise regularly.

Where s_1 is the sample standard deviation of people who do not exercise regularly.

Where s_2 is the sample standard deviation of people who do exercise regularly.

Where n_1 is the sample size of people who do not exercise regularly.

Where n_2 is the sample size of people who do exercise regularly.

$ t = \frac{72.7  - 69.7}{\sqrt{\frac{10.9^2}{16} + \frac{8.2^2}{12} } }  $

t = 0.83

The given level of significance is

1 - 0.95 = 0.05

The degree of freedom is

df = 16 + 12 - 2 = 26

From the t-table, df = 26 and significance level 0.05,

t = 2.056 (two-tailed)

Conclusion:

We Reject H₀ if t calculated > t tabulated

But in this case,

0.83 is not greater than 2.056

Therefore, We failed to reject H₀

There is no difference between the mean pulse rate of people who do not exercise and the mean pulse rate of people who do exercise.

Write an equation of the line in slope-intercept form
Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

y=2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form = y=mx+b

Where m=slope and b= y intercept

Reminder: the y intercept is where x=0

Looking at the graph, the y intercept is given as (0,-2)

There are also two points given (0, -2) and (2,2)

Reminder: to find the slope, divide the changes in y by the changes in x or substitute the numbers into this equation: y2-y1/x2-x1

2-(-2)/2-0=4/2

m=2

Now that we have the slope and y intercept, sbstitute into the equation y=mx+b:

y=2x-2

Which of the following values cannot represent the side length of a triangle?
MissTica
The answer would be <span>6.5.12

A triangle couldn't be made if the total sum of the two shortest side is less than the longest side. In this case, the two shortest side would be 5 and 6. The longest side would be 12.
If you try to add the two lowest side, the result would be 5+6=11. That means even if you make the triangle with 179.99 degrees that the 5 and 6 look like a straight line, the longest side it can achieve is 11.</span>
