Using traditional methods, it takes 10.0 hours to receive a basic driving license. A new license training method using Computer

Aided Instruction (CAI) has been proposed. A researcher used the technique with 12 students and observed that they had a mean of 10.2 hours with a standard deviation of 1.1. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used to determine if the technique performs differently than the traditional method. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

df=n-1=12-1=11  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.630)=0.5416  

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=10.2 represent the sample mean

s=1.1 represent the sample standard deviation

n=12 sample size  

represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the technique performs differently than the traditional method, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 10  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 10.2  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{10.2-10}{\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.630    

P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

df=n-1=12-1=11  

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:  

p_v =2*P(t_{(11)}>0.630)=0.5416

Answer:

The t-statistic is t=0.631.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform an hypothesis test on the mean.

The claim is that the new method performs different from the actual method.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=10.0\\\\H_a:\mu\neq10.0

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=12. The sample mean is 10.2 hours and the sample standard deviation is 1.1.

As the population standard deviation is not known, we will estimate it from the sample standard deviation and use a t-statistic.

The degrees of freedom are:

df=n-1=12-1=11

The t-statistic is:

t=\dfrac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{10.2-10.0}{1.1/\sqrt{12}}=\dfrac{0.2}{0.317}= 0.631

The P-value of this two-tailed test, with t=0.631 and df=11, is

P-value=2P(t>0.631)=0.541

The P-value is bigger than the significance level, so the effect is not significant and the null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

Someone explain this to me
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer: a) y = f(x - 6)

              b) y = f(x) - 2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

For transformations we use the following formula: y = a f(x - h) + k

  • a = vertical stretch
  • h = horizontal shift (positive = right, negative = left)
  • k = vertical stretch (positive = up, negative = down)

a) f(x) has a vertex at (-1, 1)

    M has a vertex at (5, 1)

    The vertex shifted 6 units to the right  → h = +6

Input h = +6 into the equation and disregard "a" and "k" since those didn't change.     ⇒ y = f(x - 6)

b) f(x) has a vertex at (-1, 1)

    N has a vertex at (-1, -1)

    The vertex shifted down 2 units  → k = -2

Input k = -2 into the equation and disregard "a" and "h" since those didn't change.     ⇒ y = f(x) - 2

A recipe calls for 3 cups of flour for 54 cookies. How much flour is needed<br> for 78 cookies?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

4 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

Because, 54 cookies divided by 3 cups equals, 18 cookies per cup. 54 cookies plus 18 cookies (aka 1 cup) equals 72 cookies for 4 cups.
