Exercise 6.22 provides data on sleep deprivation rates of Californians and Oregonians. The proportion of California residents wh

o reported insufficient rest or sleep during each of the preceding 30 days is 8.0%, while this proportion is 8.8% for Oregon residents. These data are based on simple random samples of 11,545 California and 4,691 Oregon residents. (a) Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if these data provide strong evidence the rate of sleep deprivation is different for the two states. (Reminder: Check conditions) (b) It is possible the conclusion of the test in part (a) is incorrect. If this is the case, what type of error was made?

Answer:

a. The alternative hypothesis H₀: p'₁ ≠ p'₂ is accepted

b. Type I error

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportion of California residents who reported insufficient rest = 8.0%

Proportion of Oregon  residents who reported insufficient rest = 8.8%

p'₁ = 0.08 * 11545 =923.6

p'₂ = 0.088 * 4691=412.81

σ₁ = \sqrt{n*p_1*q_1}  = \sqrt{n*p_1*(1-p_1)} = \sqrt{11545*0.08*(1-0.08)} = 29.15

σ₂ = \sqrt{n*p_2*q_2}  = \sqrt{n*p_2*(1-p_2)}= \sqrt{4691*0.088*(1-0.088)} = 19.40

Samples size of California residents n₁ = 11,545

Samples size of Oregon residents n₂ = 4,691

Hypothesis can be constructed thus

Let our null hypothesis be H ₀: p'₁ = p'₂

and alternative hypothesis H ₐ: p'₁ ≠ p'₂

Then we have  

z =\frac{(p'_1 -p'_2)-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_1}{n_1}+\frac{\sigma^2_2}{n_2} } }

The test statistics can be computed by

     

t₀ = \sqrt{\frac{n_1n_2(n_1+n_2-2)}{n_1+n_2} } *\frac{p_1'-p_2'}{\sqrt{(n_1-1)\sigma_1^2+(n_2-1)\sigma_2^2} } =      1104.83

c from tables is   P(T ≤ c) = 1 - α where α = 5% and c = 1.65

since t₀ ≥ c then then the hypothesis is rejected which means the alternative hypothesis is rejected

b. Type I error, rejecting a true hypothesis

Which statement is true regarding the functions on the graph?
vaieri [72.5K]

f(x) <em>the blue line </em>intersects g(x) <em>the red line </em>at coordinate (-3, -4)

which is when x = -3 and y = -4.

So, f(-3) = -4   and g(-3) = -4

So, f(-3) = g(-3)

An executive for the movie production company wants to create a function that models this data. . Create a function that can be
stich3 [128]

Functions can be modeled by equations, tables and graphs

  • The equation that models the function is y = \frac 14x  +1
  • The domain of the function is the set of whole numbers
  • The company should expect 4 box office gross in week 10

<h3>How to determine the function</h3>

From the question, we have the following ordered pairs

(x,y) = (0,1) and (4,2)

The function is a linear function.

So, we start by calculating the slope (m) using:

m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 -x_1}

Substitute known values

m = \frac{2 - 1}{4 - 0}

m = \frac{1}{4}

The equation is then calculated as:

y = m(x -x_1) +y_1

This gives

y = \frac 14(x -0) +1

y = \frac 14x  +1

The domain of the above function is the set of whole numbers

Substitute 10 for x, to calculate the number of box office gross for week 10

y = \frac 14 * 10 +1

y = 3.5

Approximate

y = 4

Hence, the company should expect 4 box office gross in week 10

The slope of the line whose equation is x + y = 6 is
melisa1 [442]

Answer:

y= -x+6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation was in point slope from, so you had to solve for y using inverse operations. The slope of x is -1 because -x = -1x.
