Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. The complete question is:

The mean annual tuition and fees for a sample of 15 private colleges was $35,500 with a standard deviation of $6500. A dotplot shows that it is reasonable to assume that the population is approximately normal. You wish to test whether the mean tuition and fees for private colleges is different from $32,500. State the null and alternate hypotheses. A) H0: 4 = 32,500, H:4=35,500 C) H: 4 = 35,500, H7:35,500 B) H: 4 = 32,500, H : 4 # 32,500 D) H0:41 # 32,500, H : 4 = 32,500

Solution

We would set up the hypothesis test. This is a test of a single population mean since we are dealing with mean

For the null hypothesis,

H0: µ = 32500

For the alternative hypothesis,

Ha: µ ≠ 32500

This is a two tailed test.

Since the number of samples is small and the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 15,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 15 - 1 = 14

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 35500

µ = population mean = 32500

s = samples standard deviation = 6500

t = (35500 - 32500)/(6500/√15) = 1.79

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.095

Assuming alpha = 0.05

Since alpha, 0.05 < than the p value, 0.095, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Question 4
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for chart

Required

Number of off days

To do this, we simply calculate the expected value of the chart.

This is calculated as:

E(x) = \sum x * f

Where

x = days

f = chances

So, we have:

E(x) = 0* 0.3 + 1 *0.2 + 2 * 0.25 + 3  * 0.2 + 4  * 0.02 + 5 * 0.01 + 6 * 0.01 + 7 * 0.01

E(x) = 1.56

E(x) \approx 2

Write the series using summation notation.<br><br> 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

\sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to write the series using the summation notation, first we need to find the nth term of the sequence formed. The sequence generated by the series is an arithmetic sequence as shown;

4, 8, 12, 16, 20...80

The nth term of an arithmetic sequence is expressed as Tn = a +(n-1)d

a is the first term = 4

d is the common difference = 21-8 = 8-4 = 4

n is the number of terms

On substituting, Tn = 4+(n-1)4

Tn = 4+4n-4

Tn = 4n

The nth term of the series is 4n.

Since the last term is 80, L = 4n

80 = 4n

n = 80/4

n = 20

This shows that the total number of terms in the sequence is 20

According to the series given 4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80 , we are to take the sum of the first 20terms of the sequence. Using summation notation;

4 + 8 + 12 + 16 + 20+ . . . + 80  = \sum ^{20} _{n \to \11} 4n
