Indicate whether the following analysis involves a statistical test. If it does involve a statistical test, state the population

parameter(s) of interest and the null and alternative hypotheses.
a. Testing 100 right-handed participants on the reaction time of their left and right hands to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the right hand reacts faster than the left.
b. Testing 100 right-handed participants on the reaction time of their left and right hands to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the right hand reacts faster than the left.
c. Polling 1000 people in a large community to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the percentage of people in the community living in a mobile home is greater then 10%.

Answer:

a

Yes it  involves a statistical test

The population parameter(s) of interest is  

   The sample size is  n =  100

    The average reaction time of the right hands for the right-handed participants  \mu_R

    The average reaction time of the left hands for the left-handed participants   \mu_L

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  \mu_R = \mu_L,

The alternative hypothesis is H_a: \mu_R < \mu_L

b

Yes it  involves a statistical test

The population parameter(s) of interest is  

   The sample size is  n =  100

    The average reaction time of the right hands for the right-handed participants  \mu_R

    The average reaction time of the left hands for the left-handed participants   \mu_L

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  \mu_R = \mu_L,

The alternative hypothesis is H_a: \mu_R < \mu_L

c

Yes it  involves a statistical test

The population parameter(s) of interest is  

The percentage of people in the community living in a mobile home is denoted with  p

The sample size is  n =  1000

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  p =10\% = 0.01,

The alternative hypothesis is H_a: p >10\% =  0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the first statement

Testing 100 right-handed participants on the reaction time of their left and right hands to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the right hand reacts faster than the left.

Yes, the analysis does involve a statistical test.

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  \mu_R = \mu_L,

The alternative hypothesis is H_a: \mu_R < \mu_L

Here \mu_R is the average reaction time of the right hands for the right-handed participants

and  \mu_L is the average reaction time of the left hands for the left-handed participants

Considering third statement  

Polling 1000 people in a large community to determine if there is evidence for the claim that the percentage of people in the community living in a mobile home is greater then 10%.

The percentage of people in the community living in a mobile home is denoted with  p

The sample size is  n =  1000

The null hypothesis is  H_o :  p =10\% = 0.01,

The alternative hypothesis is H_a: p >10\% =  0.01

Secant TP and tangent TR intersect at point 7. Chord SR and chord PQ intersect
prisoha [69]

Answer:

(C)x=11.6, y=23.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Theorem of Intersecting Secant and Tangent

Applying this theorem in the diagram, we have:

TQ$ X TP=TR^2

10(10+x+4)=16^2\\10(14+x)=256\\140+10x=256\\10x=256-140\\10x=116\\$Divide both sides by 10\\x=11.6

Next, we apply Theorem of Intersecting Chords

PV X VQ=SV X VR

4 X x= 2 X y

Recall earlier we got: x=11.6

2y=4 X 11.6

2y=46.4

Divide both sides by 2

y=46.4/2=23.2

Therefore: x=11.6, y=23.2

A population of 55 foxes in a wildlife preserve doubles in size every 14 years. The function y equals 55 times 2 Superscript x ​
Pavlova-9 [17]
Since <em>x</em> is the number of 14-year periods, the first thing we do is divide 28 years by 14. 28/14=2.  Now we use that in our function, y=55*2^x.

y=55*2^2=55*4=220
There will be 220 foxes after 28 years.
