In a study comparing calories in vegetarian and non vegetarian entrees the average number of calories in 28 vegetarian entrees w

as found to be Y¯ = 351 with a standard deviation S = 119 while the number of calories in 28 non vegetarian entrees was Y¯ = 305 with S = 125.
A) Find a 99% confidence interval for µV − µNV.
B) Test at α = .05 that vegetarian entrees have more calories. State the hypothesis, test statistic and your conclusion.
C) If non vegetarian meals have on average 25 more calories (which all other things being equal would lead to a 7.8 kg weight increase per year), how large do the samples need to be to detect such an increase with power .8 at the above level of significance α = .05. Use the statistics obtained above as the parameter values needed for the power calculation.

Solution:

Calculating the polled variance

$ S_p^2 = \frac{(n_1-1)S_1^2+(n_2-1)S_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2}$

    = $ \frac{(28-1)\times 119^2+(28-1)\times 125^2}{28+28-2}$

   = 14893

Now we calculate the estimated standard error

$ S_{M1-M2} =\sqrt {\frac{S_p^2}{n_1}+\frac{S_p^2}{n_2}}$

            $=\sqrt{\frac{14893}{28}+\frac{14893}{28}} = 32.61$

Thus , the 99 percent confidence interval is

= $(M_1-M_2) \pm t_{54.001}\times S_{M_1-M_2}$

= 351 - 305 ± 2.660 x 32.6

= (46) ± 86.74

= (-40.74, 132.74)

Now the null hypothesis is :

$H_0 : u_1-u_2 = 0$

Against the alternative hypothesis

$H_0 : u_1-u_2 > 0$

Computing the statistics ,

$t = \frac{(M_1-M_2)-(u_1-u_2)}{S_{M_1-M_2}}$

 $= \frac{(351-305)-0}{32.61}$

 = 1.41

N is a positive integer.Explain why n(n-1) must be an even number.
V125BC [204]

Answer:

n and (n - 1) are consecutive integers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given 'n', a positive integer.

This 'n' can either be odd or even.

Case I:

When 'n' is odd

The n - 1 is even.

Note that the product of odd and even is always even. That is the product of n and (n - 1) is even.

Case II:

when 'n' is even

Then n - 1 is odd.

Again, using the similar logic we can say that the product of n and n - 1 should be even because here, 'n - 1' is even and 'n' is odd.

A small square pyramid of height 6 cm was removed from the top of a large square pyramid of height 12cm forming the solid shown.
Semmy [17]

Answer:

15,872 mm³

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

A small square pyramid of height 6 cm was removed from the top of a large square pyramid of height 12cm forming the solid shown.

Find:

the exact volume of the solid

solution:

volume of square base pyramid = (base area)² * h/3

where total h = 12 cm

height of top pyramid (ht)= 6 cm

height of bottom pyramid (hb) = 6 cm

bottom volume =  total volume - the volume on top

so,

total volume = 1/3 (base area)² h

                     = 1/3 (8*8)² * 12

                     = 16,384 mm³

volume on top = 1/3 (top base area)² h

                         = 1/3 (4*4)² * 6

                         = 512 mm³

finally: get the bottom volume:

bottom volume =  total volume - the volume on top

bot. vol = 16,384 mm³ - 512 mm³

             = 15,872 mm³

therefore,

the volume of the cut  pyramid base = 15,872 mm³

Please hep me fast!!!!!!!!!!
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

y = -1/2x

Step-by-step explanation:

The y - intercept is 0, because the point where the line touches the y - axis is y - value of 0

The slope is -1/2 because as it rises by -10, it runs by 20

Slope is rise/run which is -10/20 which simplifies to -1/2

y = mx + b

b = y - intercept

m = slope

y = -1/2x + 0 or y = -1/2x

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

If you like my answer and explanation, mark me as brainliest!
