A professor would like to test the hypothesis that the average number of minutes that a student needs to complete a statistics e

xam has a standard deviation that is less than 5.0 minutes. A random sample of 15 students was selected and the sample standard deviation for the time needed to complete the exam was found to be 4.0 minutes. Using α = 0.05, the conclusion for this hypothesis test would be that because the test statistic is

Answer:

\chi^2 =\frac{15-1}{25} 16 =8.96

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n-1 = 15-1=14

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(\chi^2

Since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not ignificantly lower than 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

n=15 represent the sample size

\alpha=0.05 represent the confidence level  

s^2 =16 represent the sample variance

\sigma^2_0 =25 represent the value that we want to  verify

System of hypothesis

We want to test if the true deviation for this case is lesss than 5minutes, so the system of hypothesis would be:

Null Hypothesis: \sigma^2 \geq 25

Alternative hypothesis: \sigma^2

The statistic is given by:

\chi^2 =\frac{n-1}{\sigma^2_0} s^2

And replacing we got:

\chi^2 =\frac{15-1}{25} 16 =8.96

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n-1 = 15-1=14

The p value for this case would be given by:

p_v =P(\chi^2

Since the p value is higher than the significance level we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not ignificantly lower than 5 minutes

The graph below is a portion of a complete graph. Which graph below is the complete graph assuming it is an even function?
Ierofanga [76]

Answer:

Option b

Step-by-step explanation:

A function is even if and only if f(-x) = f(x).

This means that there is the same value of y for x_0 and for -x_0

Where x_0 is any point belonging to the function .

Therefore you must select a graph whose ordered pairs are of the form (x_0, y_0) and (-x_0, y_0)

Therefore the correct answer is option b. Assume that each box in the graph equals 1 unit. Then, for x = 2 y = -3 and for x = -2 y = -3. Then it is shown that the function is even.

Let f(x) = 3x ­- 6 and g(x) = x ­- 2. Find f/g and its domain
Neko [114]
F(x) = 3x-6
g(x) = x-2

so f/g = 3(x-2)/(x-2) = 3
