A psychological experiment was conducted to investigate the length of time (time delay) between the administration of a stimulus

and the observation of a specified reaction. A random sample of 36 persons was subjected to the stimulus, and the time delay was recorded. The sample mean and standard deviation were 2.2 and .57 seconds, respectively. Is there significant evidence that the mean time delay for the hypothetical population of all persons who may be subjected to the stimulus differs from 1.6 seconds? Use a  .05. What is the level of significance of the test?

Answer:

The P-value of this sample is 0 and is less than the significance level (0.05), so the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected.

As there is significant evidence to reject H_0: \mu= 1.6, we can say that there is significant evidence to claim that the mean time delay for the hypothetical population of all persons who may be subjected to the stimulus differs from 1.6 seconds.

The significance level for this test is 0.05.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we want to prove if there is significant evidence that the mean differs from 1.6 seconds. That is the same as having evidence to reject the the hypothesis H_0:\mu= 1.6 (the null hypothesis always have the equal sign).

We have to test the null hypothesis

H_0:\mu= 1.6

The significance level for this test is 0.05

Calculation of the t-statistic:

t=\frac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}} =\frac{2.2-1.6}{0.57/\sqrt{36}} =\frac{0.6}{0.063}= 9.47

If we look up in a t-table for t=9.47 and df=(36-1)=35, we get this value appears with a probability of zero. A large number like that is very unlikely to happen.

The P-value of this sample is 0 and is less than the significance level (0.05), so the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected.

As there is significant evidence to reject H_0: \mu= 1.6, we can say that there is significant evidence to claim that the mean time delay for the hypothetical population of all persons who may be subjected to the stimulus differs from 1.6 seconds.

Given the rule: an=7(1/2)n-1 identify the first term
Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

  • using the rule given: 2.5
  • using an exponential rule: 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Evaluating the linear rule given, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)(1) -1 = 7/2 -1 = 5/2 = 2.5

_____

We suspect you may intend the exponential function ...

  an = 7(1/2)^(n-1)

Then, for n = 1, we have ...

  a1 = 7(1/2)^(1 -1) = 7(1) = 7 . . . . the first term is 7

_____

When writing an exponential expression in plain text, it requires the exponential operator, a caret (^). If the exponent contains any arithmetic, as this one does, it must be enclosed in parentheses.

D.

f(x) can be written as (x+2)(x-2)(x-1)
by using difference of two squares to expand x^2 - 4 whch yields 3 x intercepts

similarly, k(x) can be written as
x(x+5)(x-5) which also yields 3
x intercepts (0,-5, and 5)
