Jessica knows that the adult population gets, on average, eight hours of sleep each night. A hypothesis test can help her see if

college students are different from the adult population. Jessica tabulated that her sample of 101 students got an average of 6.9 hours of sleep each night, with a standard deviation of 2.5. Using the data provided and the formula below, what is the t-statistic that Jessica calculates? Answer choices are rounded to the hundredths place.

Answer:

-4.42

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Population mean (pm) = 8 hours

Sample mean (sm) = 6.9 hours

Number of observations (n) = 101 students

Sample standard deviation (sd) = 2.5

Using the t-statistic formula :

[(sm - pm) / (sd/√n)]

Hence,

[(6.9 - 8) / (2.5/√101)]

[(-1.1) / (2.5/10.05)]

-1.1 / 0.2487562

= −4.422

The test statistic = - 4.42 to the nearest hundredth.

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Distance is 6.7units to the nearest tenth.

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we the distance formula. And this is given as:

$D = \frac{|a x + b y + c|}{\sqrt{a^2 + b^2}}$

We were given the equation:

y = 2 x + 4

This can also be rewritten as:

y – 2 x – 4 = 0.

Therefore, a = -2, b = 1 and c = -4

Also, we were given the points:

(x, y) = (–4, 11)

Making use of the above formula for distance, we have:

$D = \frac{|-2\times -4 + 1\times 11 + -4|}{\sqrt{-2^2 + -4^2}}$

$D = \frac{15}{\sqrt{5}}$

D = 6.7units (to the nearest tenth)
