Suppose a university advertises that its average class size is 34 or less. A student organization is concerned that budget cuts

have led to increased class sizes and would like to test this claim. A random sample of 43 classes was​ selected, and the average class size was found to be 35.6 students. Assume that the standard deviation for class size at the college is 9 students. Using α=0.10​, complete part a below.
a. Does the student organization have enough evidence to refute the​ college's claim?

Determine the null and alternative hypotheses.

H0​: μ ____ (greater than or equals≥ less than or equals≤ greater than> not equals≠ equals= less than<)

H1​: μ ____ (equals= less than or equals≤ greater than or equals≥ less than< greater than> not equals≠)

The​ z-test statistic is ____

​(Round to two decimal places as​ needed.)

The critical​ z-score(s) is(are) ____.

​(Round to two decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as​ needed.)

Because the test statistic _____________ (does not fall within the critical values, is greater than the critical value, is less than the critical value, falls within the critical values)

______(do not reject, reject) the null hypothesis.

Answer:

H0​: μ ≤ 34

H1​: μ > 34

The​ z-test statistic is ≈ 1.8

The critical​ z-score is 1.28

we fail to reject the null hypothesis H0​: μ ≤ 34

Step-by-step explanation:

H0​: μ ≤ 34

H1​: μ > 34

The​ z-test statistic is calculated using the formula:

z=\frac{X-M}{s} where

  • X is the average class size found in the sample (35.6)
  • M is the mean according to the null hypothesis (34)
  • s is the standard deviation for class size (9)

then z= \frac{35.6-34}{9} ≈ 0.18

The critical​ z-score is 1.28 for α=0.10​ (one tailed)

Because the test statistic is less than the critical value, do not reject the null hypothesis.

Triangles E F G and K L M are shown. Angles E F G and K L M are congruent. The length of side K L is 6, the length of side M L i
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

The Answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

Step-by-step explanation:

SSS is for side-side-side

Both triangles have all three sides given, so the SSS similarity theorem is one way to prove these triangles are similar.

SAS is for side-angle-side

Both triangles have one angle measurement given, and two side lengths given, therefore we can also use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the two triangles are similar.  

Since both SSS and SAS work to prove the triangles are similar, the correct answer is C: Yes, △EFG~ △KLM by SSS or SAS

(I also just answered this question on the assignment and got it correct)
