Complete Question

Statistics professors believe the average number of headaches per semester for all students is more than 18. From a random sample of 15 students, the professors find the mean number of headaches is 19 and the standard deviation is 1.7. Assume the population distribution of number of headaches is normal.the correct conclusion at \alpha =0.001 is?

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the professor believe

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

     The population mean is  \mu =  18

     The sample size is  n  =  15

      The sample mean is  \=  x  =  19

      The standard deviation is  \sigma =  1.7

      The level of significance is  \alpha  =  0.001

The null hypothesis is  H_o:  \mu = 18

The  alternative hypothesis is  H_a :  \mu > 18

 The critical value of the level of significance from the normal distribution table is    

         Z_{\alpha } =  3.290527

The test hypothesis is mathematically represented as

           t =  \frac{\= x  -  \mu }{ \frac{\sigma}{ \sqrt{n} } }

substituting values  

         t =  \frac{ 19  - 18}{ \frac{1.7}{ \sqrt{15} } }

         t =  2.28

Looking at the value of  t and  Z_{\alpha } we can see that t <  Z_{\alpha } so we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

This mean that there is no sufficient evidence to support the professor believe

Elaine scored 19 out of 24 on her science test.
kozerog [31]

Answer:

Addison scored a better score on the test.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elaine's score can be found by dividing 19 by 24, which yields a result of 0.7916, which means her score is a 79 out of 100 (79%). Her score can also be found by doing 100/24 = 4.16666 repeating and multiplying that by 19, which also yields 79.6. Hope this helps!

In the diagram shown of circle A, segments UV and UT are congruent. If
grandymaker [24]

Answer:

 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume that points S, T, U, V all lie on the circle.

Inscribed angle TUV intercepts long arc VST and short arc VUT. The long arc has measure 220°, so the measure of the short arc is 360° -220° = 140°.

Since chords UV and UT are the same length, point U bisects arc VUT. That means the measure of arc VU is 140°/2 = 70°.

Inscribed angle VSU intercepts arc VU, so has half the measure of the arc:

 ∠VSU = 70°/2

 ∠VSU = 35°
