Mars inc. says that until very recently yellow candies made up 20% of it's milk chocolate m&m's, red another 20%, and orange

, blue, and green 10% each. the rest are brown. on his way home from work the day he was writing these exercises, one of the authors bought a bag of plain m&m's. he got 29 yellow ones, 23 red, 12 orange, 14 blue, 8 green, and 20 brown. is this sample consistent with the company's stated proportions? test an appropriate hypothesis and state your conclusion.

The first four terms of a sequence are shown below: 7, 4, 1, -2 Which of the following functions best defines this sequence? A.f
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

Option (B) is correct.

The sequence that best defines the function is f(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) - 3; for n ≥ 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given sequence 7 ,4, 1,-2

We have to choose a function from given options that best defines this sequence.

Let f(n) denotes the value at nth position,

Like f(1) = 7 , so here, n= 1.

Since next term is 4 = f(2)

4 can be written as 7 - 3 = f(1) -3

Next term is 1 = f(3)

1 can be written as 4-1 = f(2) - 3

Next term is -2 = f(4)

-2 can be written as 1-3 = f(3) - 3

Thus, following the sequence and writing in general form for n

f(n+1) = f (n) -3 , n ≥ 1

Thus, option (B) is correct.

The sequence that best defines the function is f(1) = 7, f(n + 1) = f(n) - 3; for n ≥ 1

Please help me with questions 26 and 27
grandymaker [24]
26) Answer is choice A: y = -3
This is the horizontal line that cuts the figure into two congruent pieces.
--------------------------------------------------------------

27) Answer is choice A: AB = 24 and DE = 12
CA/DF = 12/6 = 2
CB/FE = 20/10 = 2
The ratio of the larger to smaller corresponding sides is 2:1 or just 2

So AB needs to be twice as long as DE
That only happens with choice A

A safety officer wants to prove that μ = the average speed of cars driven by a school is less than 25 mph. Suppose that a random
melomori [17]

Answer:

t=\frac{24-25}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{14}}}=-1.70    

p_v =P(t_{(13)}  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 and we can see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the true average speed is lower than 25 mph at 5% of signficance.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=24 represent the sample mean

s=2.2 represent the sample standard deviation

n=14 sample size  

\mu_o =25 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean for the average speed is lower than 25 mph, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 25  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 25  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{24-25}{\frac{2.2}{\sqrt{14}}}=-1.70    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:  

df=n-1=14-1=13  

Since is a one side test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(13)}  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level given \alpha=0.05 and we can see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the true average speed is lower than 25 mph at 5% of signficance.
