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.

Skis at a sports store near Snow Summit are on sale for $475. If the original price was $500,what discount rate(percent change)
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer: 5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi to answer this question, first we have to calculate the discount amount:

Original price - sale price

500-475 =25

Now, the original price (500) multiplied by the percent discount in decimal form (x) must be equal to the discount amount (25)

500x =25

Solving for x

x =25/500 =0.05

Multiply it by 100 to express in percentage form.

0.05 x 100 = 5%
