Answer:

d. The point value of a test item is more than 1.25 points and less than 1.5 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the inequality for each scenarios, as follows:

a. defining x: container of milk cost. Data: x is at least $1.25 but less than $1.50. These mean that x >= $1.25 and x < $1.5, because $1.25 is included but $1.5 is not.

b. defining x: minutes spent on homework by the student. Data: x is at least 1.25 hours ( 1 hour 15 minutes) but no more than 1.5 hours (1 hour 30 minutes). These mean that x >= 1.25 h and x < 1.5 h, because 1.25 h is included but 1.5 h is not.

c. defining x: tip added to a restaurant bill. Data: x  is less than or equal to 1.25 (addition of 25% to the bill) or less than or equal to 1.5 (addition of 50% to the bill). In the first case x <= 1.25 and in the second one x <= 1.5

d. defining x: the point value of a test item. Data: x  is more than 1.25 points and less than 1.5 points. These mean that x > 1.25 and x < 1.5

In consequence, only the last scenario can be represented by the inequality 1.25 < x < 1.5.

Answer:

b. H0: μ < 530. Reject H0 if tcalc > -1.753

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

\bar X=507 represent the sample mean

s=47 represent the sample standard deviation  

n=16 sample size  

\mu_o =530 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is less than 530 (left tailed tes), the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 530  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 530  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{507-530}{\frac{47}{\sqrt{16}}}=-1.957

Critical value

Since we are conducting a left tailed test we need to first find the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=n-1=16-1=15

Now we need to look on the t distribution with 15 degrees of freedom that accumulates 0.05 of the area on the left area. And on this case the critical value would be t_{\alpha}=-1/753.

And we can use the following excel code to find it: "=T.INV(0.05,15)"  

So then the correct rejection zone for H0 would be: Reject H0 if t_{calc}

P-value  

Since is a one side left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(15)}  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level for example \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean is significantly lower than 530 at 5% of significance.

Indicate a general rule for the nth term of the sequence a1 = 2 and r = √3.
pantera1 [17]

It is given in the question that,

a_{1} = 2, r = \sqrt 3

Since we have the value of r given, so we have to use the formula to find the nth term of the geometric progression, which is

a_{n} = a(r)^{n-1}

Substituting the values of a and r, we will get

a_{n} = 2( \sqrt 3)^{n-1}

So the correct option is the third option .
