Ms. Redmon gave her theater students an assignment to memorize a dramatic monologue to present to the rest of the class. The gra

ph shows the times, rounded to the nearest half minute, of the first 10 monologues presented.
A number line going from 0.5 to 5. 0 dots are above 0.5 0 dots are above 1. 2 dots area above 1.5. 1 dot is above 2. 3 dots are above 2.5. 1 dot is above 3. 2 dots are above 3.5. 1 dot is above 4. 0 dots are above 2.5. 0 dots are above 5.

The next student presents a monologue that is about 0.5 minutes long. What effect will this have on the graph?

A. The median will decrease.
B. The mean will decrease.
C.The median will increase.
D. The mean will increase.

Let's see if we can recreate the histogram from the description.

Time count

0.5  0

1       0

1.5    2

2      1

2.5   3

3       1

3.5    2

4       1

4.5    0

5       0

The mean is between 2.5 and 3 so that will definitely decrease with a data point that's less that that, as 0.5 is.  

For 10 data points the median is the average of the 5th and 6th when sorted, and those are both 2.5.  When the new point is added the median will be the 6th of 11 points, still 2.5 in this story.

Answer: B  the mean will decrease

The answer would be 14/15

Find a common denominator that both of the fractions can use. An easy way to do this is simply multiply the denominators together. So for 3/5 you would multiply by 3 to get the fraction 9/15 and then multiply 1/3 by 5 to get 5/15. Add both 9/15 and 5/15 to then get 14/15.

Minor surgery on horses under field conditions requires a reliable short-term anesthetic producing good muscle relaxation, minim
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

p_v =P(t_{74}    

If we compare the p value and a significance level for example \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean it's not significantly less than 20 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation    

\bar X=18.81 represent the average lateral recumbency for the sample    

s=8.4 represent the sample standard deviation    

n=75 sample size    

\mu_o =20 represent the value that we want to test    

\alpha 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 apply a left tailed  test.  

What are H0 and Ha for this study?    

Null hypothesis:  \mu \geq 20  

Alternative hypothesis :\mu < 20  

Compute the test statistic  

The statistic for this case 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{18.81-20}{\frac{8.4}{\sqrt{75}}}=-1.227

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=75-1=74    

Give the appropriate conclusion for the test  

Since is a one side left tailed test the p value would be:    

p_v =P(t_{74}    

Conclusion    

If we compare the p value and a significance level for example \alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean it's not significantly less than 20 min.
