Suppose you are going to conduct a two tail test concerning the population mean. Suppose that you do not know what the populatio

n standard deviation is and that you have a sample of 55 observations. If you are going to conduct this test at the .01 level of significance what is the critical value?

Answer:

The critical value of <em>t</em> at 0.01 level of significance is 2.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for the two-tailed population mean can be defined as:

<em>H₀</em>: <em>μ </em>= <em>μ₀</em> vs. <em>H₀</em>: <em>μ </em>≠ <em>μ₀</em>

It is provided that the population standard deviation is not known.

Since there is no information about the population standard deviation, we will use a <em>t</em>-test for single mean.

The test statistic is defined as follows:

t_{cal.}=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}\sim t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}

The information given is:

<em>n</em> = 55

<em>α</em> =<em> </em>0.01

Compute the critical value of <em>t</em> as follows:

t_{\alpha/2, (n-1)}= t_{0.01/2, (55-1)}=t_{0.005, 54}=2.66

*Use a <em>t</em>-table for the value.

If the desired degrees of freedom are not provided consider he next highest degree of freedom.

Thus, the critical value of <em>t</em> at 0.01 level of significance is 2.66.

If the ribbon cost $0.10 per foot what is the total cost of the ribbon in dollars
WITCHER [35]
Well how long is the ribbon? I'm not asking for the dollar amount, I will answer your question if you can tell me the length of the ribbon. No one can figure it out unless you give the total length.

fiasKO [112]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the problem statement, we can setup the following equation:

35M = 1015

where M is the number of months that Rachel has saved up money.

Dividing both sides by 35, we get the answer:

M = 29

Karen claps her hand and hears the echo from a distant wall 0.113 s later. How far away is the wall? The speed of sound in air i
insens350 [35]

Answer:

19.3795 m

Step-by-step explanation:

If sound travels at 343 m/s and it took Karen 0.113 s to hear the echo from the wall, the distance travelled by the sound is:

D=343\frac{m}{s} *0.113\ s\\D= 38.759\ m

Note that the distance calculated above is the distance travelled from Karen to the wall and then back from the wall to Karen. Therefore, the distance between Karen and the wall is:

d=\frac{38.759}{2}\\d=19.3795\ m

The wall is 19.3795 m away from Karen.
