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

Answer:

y=-\sqrt{3}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the equation of a straight line that cuts off an intercept of 2 from the y-axis, and whose perpendicular distance from the origin is 1.

We will let Point M be (x, y). As we know, Point R will be (0, 2) and Point O (the origin) will be (0, 0).

First, we can use the distance formula to determine values for M. The distance formula is given by:

\displaystyle d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Since we know that the distance between O and M is 1, d=1.

And we will let M(x, y) be (x₂, y₂) and O(0, 0) be (x₁, y₁). So:

\displaystyle 1=\sqrt{(x-0)^2+(y-0)^2}

Simplify:

1=\sqrt{x^2+y^2}

We can solve for y. Square both sides:

1=x^2+y^2

Rearranging gives:

y^2=1-x^2

Take the square root of both sides. Since M is in the first quadrant, we only need to worry about the positive case. Therefore:

y=\sqrt{1-x^2}

So, Point M is now given by (we substitute the above equation for y):

M(x,\sqrt{1-x^2})

We know that Segment OM is perpendicular to Line RM.

Therefore, their <em>slopes will be negative reciprocals</em> of each other.

So, let’s find the slope of each segment/line. We will use the slope formula given by:

\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Segment OM:

For OM, we have two points: O(0, 0) and M(x, √(1-x²)). So, the slope will be:

\displaystyle m_{OM}=\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}-0}{x-0}=\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{x}

Line RM:

For RM, we have the two points R(0, 2) and M(x, √(1-x²)). So, the slope will be:

\displaystyle m_{RM}=\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}-2}{x-0}=\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}-2}{x}

Since their slopes are negative reciprocals of each other, this means that:

m_{OM}=-(m_{RM})^{-1}

Substitute:

\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{x}=-\Big(\frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}-2}{x}\Big)^{-1}

Now, we can solve for x. Simplify:

\displaystyle \frac{\sqrt{1-x^2}}{x}=\frac{x}{2-\sqrt{1-x^2}}

Cross-multiply:

x(x)=\sqrt{1-x^2}(2-\sqrt{1-x^2})

Distribute:

x^2=2\sqrt{1-x^2}-(\sqrt{1-x^2})^2

Simplify:

x^2=2\sqrt{1-x^2}-(1-x^2)

Distribute:

x^2=2\sqrt{1-x^2}-1+x^2

So:

0=2\sqrt{1-x^2}-1

Adding 1 and then dividing by 2 yields:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{2}=\sqrt{1-x^2}

Then:

\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}=1-x^2

Therefore, the value of x is:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}\frac{1}{4}-1&=-x^2\\-\frac{3}{4}&=-x^2\\ \frac{3}{4}&=x^2\\ \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}&=x\end{aligned}

Then, Point M will be:

\begin{aligned} \displaystyle M(x,\sqrt{1-x^2})&=M(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}, \sqrt{1-\Big(\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}\Big)^2)}\\M&=(\frac{\sqrt3}{2},\frac{1}{2})\end{aligned}

Therefore, the slope of Line RM will be:

\displaystyle \begin{aligned}m_{RM}&=\frac{\frac{1}{2}-2}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}-0} \\ &=\frac{\frac{-3}{2}}{\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}}\\&=-\frac{3}{\sqrt3}\\&=-\sqrt3\end{aligned}

And since we know that R is (0, 2), R is the y-intercept of RM. Then, using the slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

We can see that the equation of Line RM is:

y=-\sqrt{3}x+2
