How do I solve problem 15

if danny jogged 8x-21 miles and julie jogged 24x-63 mike’s, how many times longer was julie’s travel distance than danny’s?

Bas_tet [7]

Julie traveled 3 times more miles than Danny.
This is because 24x is 3 times more than 8x and -63 is 3 times more than -21.

At Western University the historical mean of scholarship examination scores for freshman applications is 900. A historical popul

Answer:

a) Null Hypothesis: $\mu =900$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 900$

b) The 95% confidence interval would be given by (910.05;959.95)

c) Since we confidence interval not ocntains the value of 900 we fail to reject the null hypothesis that the true mean is 900.

d) $z=\frac{935 -900}{\frac{180}{\sqrt{200}}}=2.750$

Since is a bilateral test the p value is given by:

$p_v =2*P(Z>2.750)=0.0059$

Step-by-step explanation:

a. State the hypotheses.

On this case we want to check the following system of hypothesis:

Null Hypothesis: $\mu =900$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 900$

b. What is the 95% confidence interval estimate of the population mean examination score if a sample of 200 applications provided a sample mean x¯¯¯= 935?

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

$\bar X=935$ represent the sample mean for the sample

$\mu$ population mean (variable of interest)

$\sigma=180$ represent the population standard deviation

n=200 represent the sample size

The confidence interval for the mean is given by the following formula:

$\bar X \pm z_{\alpha/2}\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$ (1)

In order to calculate the mean and the sample deviation we can use the following formulas:

$\bar X= \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{x_i}{n}$ (2)

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i-\bar X)}{n-1}}$ (3)

The mean calculated for this case is $\bar X=3278.222$

The sample deviation calculated $s=97.054$

Since the Confidence is 0.95 or 95%, the value of $\alpha=0.05$ and $\alpha/2 =0.025$ , and we can use excel, a calculator or a table to find the critical value. The excel command would be: "=-NORM.INV(0.025,0,1)".And we see that $z_{\alpha/2}=1.96$

Now we have everything in order to replace into formula (1):

$935-1.96\frac{180}{\sqrt{200}}=910.05$

$935+1.96\frac{180}{\sqrt{200}}=959.95$

So on this case the 95% confidence interval would be given by (910.05;959.95)

c. Use the confidence interval to conduct a hypothesis test. Using α= .05, what is your conclusion?

Since we confidence interval not ocntains the value of 900 we fail to reject the null hypothesis that the true mean is 900.

d. What is the p-value?

The statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X -\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

If we replace we got:

$z=\frac{935 -900}{\frac{180}{\sqrt{200}}}=2.750$

Since is a bilateral test the p value is given by:

$p_v =2*P(Z>2.750)=0.0059$

So then since the p value is less than the significance we can reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance.

Math help please 14 points and brainiest!!!

The reason is because she didn't survey the school, but only surveyed her class, and to add to that It didn't say it was a random selection of students. Juliet concludes that short stories is the favorite type of book of the students in her school because 80% of the students in her class like short stories. Just because most of her class chose short stories she believes the rest of the school will have the same choice.
