Answer:

a) H0:  There is no association between level of education and TV station preference (Independence)

H1: There is association between level of education and TV station preference (No independence)

b) \chi^2 = \frac{(15-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(15-20)^2}{20}+\frac{(10-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(5-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(25-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(10-20)^2}{20} =33.75

c) \chi^2_{crit}=5.991

d) Since the p value is lower than the significance level we enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that we have dependence between the two variables analyzed.

Step-by-step explanation:

A chi-square goodness of fit test "determines if a sample data matches a population".

A chi-square test for independence "compares two variables in a contingency table to see if they are related. In a more general sense, it tests to see whether distributions of categorical variables differ from each another".

Assume the following dataset:

                                  High school   Some College   Bachelor or higher  Total

Public Broadcasting       15                       15                          10                     40

Commercial stations      5                         25                         10                     40  

Total                                20                      40                          20                    80

We need to conduct a chi square test in order to check the following hypothesis:

Part a

H0:  There is no association between level of education and TV station preference (Independence)

H1: There is association between level of education and TV station preference (No independence)

The level os significance assumed for this case is \alpha=0.05

The statistic to check the hypothesis is given by:

\sum_{i=1}^n \frac{(O_i -E_i)^2}{E_i}

Part b

The table given represent the observed values, we just need to calculate the expected values with the following formula E_i = \frac{total col * total row}{grand total}

And the calculations are given by:

E_{1} =\frac{20*40}{80}=10

E_{2} =\frac{40*40}{80}=20

E_{3} =\frac{20*40}{80}=10

E_{4} =\frac{20*40}{80}=10

E_{5} =\frac{40*40}{80}=20

E_{6} =\frac{20*40}{80}=10

And the expected values are given by:

                                  High school   Some College   Bachelor or higher  Total

Public Broadcasting       10                       20                         10                     40

Commercial stations      10                        10                         20                     40  

Total                                20                      30                          30                    80

Part b

And now we can calculate the statistic:

\chi^2 = \frac{(15-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(15-20)^2}{20}+\frac{(10-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(5-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(25-10)^2}{10}+\frac{(10-20)^2}{20} =33.75

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom for the statistic given by:

df=(rows-1)(cols-1)=(2-1)(3-1)=2

Part c

In order to find the critical value we need to look on the right tail of the chi square distribution with 2 degrees of freedom a value that accumulates 0.05 of the area. And this value is \chi^2_{crit}=5.991

Part d

And we can calculate the p value given by:

p_v = P(\chi^2_{3} >33.75)=2.23x10^{-7}

And we can find the p value using the following excel code:

"=1-CHISQ.DIST(33.75,2,TRUE)"

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at 5% of significance, and we can conclude that we have dependence between the two variables analyzed.

Which equation represents a line that has a slope of 1/3 and passes through point -2, one
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer: y= 1/3 x + 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1= 1/3(-2) + b where b is the y intercept

  1=   -2/3 + B

+2/3   +2/3

B = 5/3

so we know the slope and the y- intercept

y= 1/3x + 5/3   check:   1=1/3(-2) +5/3

                                    1 =1

A sporting goods manager was selling a ski set for a certain price. The manager offered the markdowns shown on the right, making
ra1l [238]

Answer:

The original selling price would be $ 515.87 ( approx )

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the complete question is :

"A sporting goods store manager was selling a ski set for a certain price. The manager offered the markdowns​ shown, making the​ one-day sale price of the ski set ​$325. Find the original selling price of the ski set. It was marked down 10% and 30%"

Suppose x be the original selling price ( in dollars ),

After marking down 10%,

New selling price = x - 10% of x = x - 0.1x = 0.9x

Again after marking down 30%,

Final selling price = 0.9x - 30% of 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.3 × 0.9x

= 0.9x - 0.27x

= 0.63x

According to the question,

0.63x = 325

\implies x =\frac{325}{0.63}=\$ 515.87

Therefore, the original selling price would be $ 515.87.
