A recent national survey found that high school students watched an average (mean) of 6.8 movies per month with a population sta
Margaret [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that x = no of movies high school students watched is N(6.8, 1.8)

Sample size = 36 and hence std error = 1.8/6 = 0.3

H_0: x bar = 6.8\\H_a: x bar < 6.8\\

(two tailed test)

Mean difference = 6.2-6.8 = -0.6

Test statistic z = -0.6/0.3= -2

p value = 0.02275

Since p <0.05 we reject H0.

There is evidence to show that college students watch fewer movies a month than high school students

In a contest to guess the number of jelly beans in a jar, Alice guessed 25;Betty, 18;Clare,23;Dotty,19;Edith,24;and Fran,17. Two
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

<em>There are 21 jelly beans in the jar.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose, the number of jelly beans in the jar is  x

Two were off by 2, two were off by 3, two were off by 4. That means, the six guessed number will be:  (x+2), (x-2), (x+3), (x-3), (x+4), (x-4)

Given that, Alice guessed 25; Betty, 18; Clare, 23; Dotty, 19; Edith, 24; and Fran, 17.

So, the sum of all six guessed number will be:  25+18+23+19+24+17=126

Thus, the equation will be..........

(x+2)+(x-2)+(x+3)+(x-3)+(x+4)+(x-4)= 126\\ \\ 6x= 126\\ \\ x=\frac{126}{6}=21

So, the number of jelly beans in the jar is 21.
