The average retirement age for a certain country was reported to be years according to an international group dedicated to promo

ting trade and economic growth. With the pension system operating with a​ deficit, a bill was introduced by the government during the summer to raise the minimum retirement age from 60 to 62. Suppose a survey of retiring citizens is taken to investigate whether the new bill has raised the average age at which people actually retire. Assume the standard deviation of the retirement age is years. Using ​, answer parts a through c below.a. Explain how Type I and Type II errors can occur in this hypothesis test. A Type I error can occur when the researcher concludes the average retirement age ? did not increase, increased, but the average retirement age ? increased. did not increase. A Type II error can occur when the researcher concludes that the average retirement age ? did not increase, increased, ?when, in? fact, the average retirement age ? did not increase. increased.b. Calculate the probability of a Type II error occurring if the actual population age is 57.4 years old. The probability of committing a Type II error is _______ . ?(Round to three decimal places as? needed.)c. Calculate the probability of a Type II error occurring if the actual population age is 58.9 years old. The probability of committing a Type II error is _______ . ?(Round to three decimal places as? needed.)

The missing figures in the question can be seen below.

The average retirement age = 56.1 years ...

The number of a  survey of retired citizen = 49

The standard deviation of the retirement age is 6 years.

Using alpha ∝ = 0.02

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given options in the first question in the given information.

Type I error can take place when the researcher concludes the average retirement age <u>increased</u>, but the average retirement age <u>did not increase. </u>

A Type II error can take place when the researcher concludes that the average retirement age <u>did not increase</u>, but the average retirement age <u>increased. </u>

<u></u>

Recall that:

population mean = 56.1

sample size = 49

standard deviation = 6

At the level of significance of 0.02, using the Excel function (=Normsinv(0.02))

The critical value for z = 2.054

<u></u>

Standard error = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}

=\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{49}}

= 6/7

= 0.857

The rejection region \overline X = \mu +Z_{\alpha/0.02}*\sigma_x

\overline X = 56.1+2.05374891*0.857

\overline X = 57.86

P(Type II error) is as follows:

P(\overline X < 57.86| \mu = 57.4) = P( Z< \dfrac{\overline X - \mu }{\sigma_x})

= P( Z< \dfrac{57.86-57.4}{0.857})

= P( Z< 0.537)

From z tables;

P (Type II error) = 0.704

P(Type II error) is as follows:

P(\overline X < 57.86| \mu = 58.9) = P( Z< \dfrac{\overline X - \mu }{\sigma_x})

= P( Z< \dfrac{57.86-58.9}{0.857})

= P( Z

From z tables;

P (Type II error) = 0.1124

Explanation step by step

Multiply 120x 15%
Turn 15% into a decimal which is 0.15 so now it’s 120x0.15 which equals to 18.

I need help with this
Assoli18 [71]
On a given line, (on one side) there are a total of 180°

if one line in Problem #3 is bisected by a line, with one half X and the other 120°,

do 180° (the total) minus 120° which=60°

now the hard part, that line that bisected the first line is bisecting a line that is parallel to your second line, the one with <5 and <6

this means that the big angle formed in the first one with 120° is the same angle as in the second line, leaving <5 as 120°
which means <6 is 60°, like in the top part of the problem. You're basically flipping the top line upside down, I hope it helps.

Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car. He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase, and financing the rest at 4.8% in
Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

The monthly payment is $262.95

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Omar has decided to purchase an $11,000 car

- He plans on putting 20% down toward the purchase

* Lets find the value of the 20%

∵ The principal value is $11000

∴ the value of the 20% = 20/100 × 11000 = 2200

∴ He will put $2200 down

* Lets find the balance to be paid off on installments

∴ The balance = 11000 - 2200 = 8800

- He financing the rest at 4.8% interest rate for 3 years

* Lets find the rule of the monthly payment

∵ pmt=\frac{\frac{r}{n}[P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}]}{(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}-1} , where

- pmt is the monthly payment

- P = the investment amount

- r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

- n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

- t = the time the money is invested or borrowed for

∵ P = 8800

∵ r = 4.8/100 = 0.048

∵ n = 12

∵ t = 3

∴ pmt=\frac{\frac{0.048}{12}[8800(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}]}{(1+\frac{0.048}{12})^{3(12)}-1}

∴ pmt=\frac{0.004[8800(1.004)^{36}]}{(1.004)^{36}-1}=262.95

* The monthly payment is $262.95
