The number of "destination weddings" has skyrocketed in recent years. For example, many couples are opting to have their wedding

s in the Caribbean. A Caribbean vacation resort recently advertised in Bride Magazine that the cost of a Caribbean wedding was less than $30,000. Listed below is a total cost in $000 for a sample of 8 Caribbean weddings.
29.1 28.5 28.8 29.4 29.8 29.8 30.1 30.6
1. At the 0.05 significance level, is it reasonable to conclude the mean wedding cost is less than $30,000 as advertised?
2. State the null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis. Use a 0.05 level of significance. (Enter your answers in thousands of dollars.)

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that wedding cost is less than $30000.

Step-by-step explanation:

Values (x) ∑(Xi-X)^2

----------------------------------

29.1                    0.1702

28.5                  1.0252

28.8                  0.5077

29.4                   0.0127

29.8                  0.0827

29.8                  0.0827

30.1                   0.3452

30.6                   1.1827

----------------------------------------

236.1                 3.4088

Mean = 236.1 / 8 = 29.51

S_{x}=\sqrt{3.4088/(8-1)}=0.6978

Statement of the null hypothesis:

H0: u ≥ 30 the mean wedding cost is not less than $30,000

H1: u < 30 the mean wedding cost is less than $30,000

Test Statistic:

t=\frac{X-u}{S/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{29.51-30}{0.6978/\sqrt{8}}= \frac{-0.49}{0.2467}=-1.9861

Test criteria:

SIgnificance level = 0.05

Degrees of freedom = df = n - 1 = 8 - 1 = 7

Reject null hypothesis (H0) if

t

Finding in the t distribution table α=0.05 with df=7, we have

t_{0.05,7}=2.365

t>-t_{0.05,7} = -1.9861 > -2.365

Result: Fail to reject null hypothesis

Conclusion: Do no reject the null hypothesis

u ≥ 30 the mean wedding cost is not less than $30,000

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that wedding cost is less than $30000.

Hope this helps!

Which explains whether or not the function represents a direct variation?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

The function represents a direct variation

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a direct variation if it can be expressed in the form y/x=k or y=kx

In a linear direct variation the line passes through the origin and the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m

Let

A(0,0) ------> the line passes through the origin

B(2,10)

Find the value of k------> substitute the value of x and y

y/x=k-----> k=10/2=5

C(4,20)

Find the value of k------> substitute the value of x and y

y/x=k-----> k=20/4=5

D(6,30)

Find the value of k------> substitute the value of x and y

y/x=k-----> k=30/6=5

E(8,40)

Find the value of k------> substitute the value of x and y

y/x=k-----> k=40/8=5

The value of k is equal in all the points of the table and the line passes through the origin

therefore

The function represents a direct variation

the equation of the direct variation is equal to

f(x)=5x
