Answer:

No, the results are likely to occur by chance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Traffic lights were not programmed to facilitate traffic, there is no statistical evidence to think otherwise. If you pay attention you will realize that the amount of green traffic lights is almost equal to the amount of non-green traffic lights, with this we can conclude that what happened was that the traffic lights turned green by chance and not by configuration.

Derive these identities using the addition or subtraction formulas for sine or cosine: sinacosb=(sin(a+b)+sin(a-b))/2
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The work is in the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sine addition identity is:

\sin(a+b)=\sin(a)\cos(b)+\cos(a)\sin(b).

The sine difference identity is:

\sin(a-b)=\sin(a)\cos(b)-\cos(a)\sin(a).

The cosine addition identity is:

\cos(a+b)=\cos(a)\cos(b)-\sin(a)\sin(b).

The cosine difference identity is:

\cos(a-b)=\cos(a)\cos(b)+\sin(a)\sin(b).

We need to find a way to put some or all of these together to get:

\sin(a)\cos(b)=\frac{\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)}{2}.

So I do notice on the right hand side the \sin(a+b) and the \sin(a-b).

Let's start there then.

There is a plus sign in between them so let's add those together:

\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)

=[\sin(a+b)]+[\sin(a-b)]

=[\sin(a)\cos(b)+\cos(a)\sin(b)]+[\sin(a)\cos(b)-\cos(a)\sin(b)]

There are two pairs of like terms. I will gather them together so you can see it more clearly:

=[\sin(a)\cos(b)+\sin(a)\cos(b)]+[\cos(a)\sin(b)-\cos(a)\sin(b)]

=2\sin(a)\cos(b)+0

=2\sin(a)\cos(b)

So this implies:

\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)=2\sin(a)\cos(b)

Divide both sides by 2:

\frac{\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)}{2}=\sin(a)\cos(b)

By the symmetric property we can write:

\sin(a)\cos(b)=\frac{\sin(a+b)+\sin(a-b)}{2}

a) The mean age of graduate students at a University is at most 31 y ears with a standard deviation of two years. A random sampl
kari74 [83]

Answer:

A.)

H0: μ ≤ 31

H1: μ > 31

B.)

H0: μ ≥ 16

H1: μ < 16

C.)

Right tailed test

D.)

If Pvalue is less than or equal to α ; we reject the Null

Step-by-step explanation:

The significance level , α = 0.01

The Pvalue = 0.0264

The decision region :

Reject the null if :

Pvalue < α

0.0264 > 0.01

Since Pvalue is greater than α ; then, we fail to reject the Null ;

Then there is no significant evidence that the mean graduate age is more Than 31.

B.)

H0: μ ≥ 16

H1: μ < 16

Null Fluid contains 16

Alternative hypothesis, fluid contains less than 16

One sample t - test

C.)

Null hypothesis :

H0 : μ ≤ 12

. The direction of the sign in the alternative hypothesis signifies the type of test or tht opposite direction of the sign in the null hypothesis.

Hence, this is a right tailed test ; Alternative hypothesis, H1 : μ > 12

d.)

If Pvalue is less than or equal to α ; we reject the Null.
