A researcher plans to identify each participant in a certain medical experiment with a code consisting of either a single letter
Digiron [165]

Answer:

at least 5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>If the question was similar to the one given below </em></u>

A researcher plans to identify each participant in a certain medical experiment with a code consisting of either a single letter or a pair of distinct letters written in alphabetical order. What is the least number of letters that can be used if there are 12 participants, and each participant is to receive a different code?

<em><u>The answer would be as follows</u></em>

If we use 3 letters or any distinct letter as a comma such that 2 are in alphabetical order then we would get

4C2= 6 ways to use these letters and the comma

If we use 4 letters or any distinct letter as a comma such that 2 are in alphabetical order then we would get

5C2= 10 ways to use these letters and the comma

If we use 5 letters or any distinct letter as a comma such that 2 are in alphabetical order then we would get

6C2= 15 ways to use these letters and the comma

We need the least number of the alphabets to assign codes to 12 participants.

So the least number of alphabets is 5 because it can give codes to at least to  12 people .

Pair of alphabets + distinct letter ≥ 12

5 + 1  ≥ 12

6c2  ≥ 12

15  ≥ 12

What is the volume in cubic feet of a rectangular prism with a height of 8ft and width of 8ft and a length of 18th feet.
Hitman42 [59]

The volume of the rectangular prism is 1152 cubic feet (ft^{3}), If the rectangular prism have height of 8 feet and width of 8 feet and a length of 18th feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

              The given is,

                       Let, h - Height of the rectangular prism

                              w - Width of the rectangular prism

                                l -Length of the rectangular prism

Step:1

            From the given,

                              h = 8 feet

                              w = 8 feet

                               l = 18 feet

Step:2

          Formula for volume of Rectangular prism is,

                     V = whl

        Substitute the values of w, h and l,

                     V = ( 8 × 8 × 18 )

                        = 1152

                    V = 1152 cubic feet

Result:

           Thus the volume of the rectangular prism is 1152 cubic feet (ft^{3}), for the given rectangular prism have height of 8 feet and width of 8 feet and a length of 18th feet.

A shoe manufacturer compared material A and material B for the soles of shoes. Twelve volunteers each got two shoes. The left wa
sveta [45]

Answer:

a) Are dependent since we are mesuring at the same individuals but on different times and with a different method

b) If we see the qq plot we don't have any significant deviation for the values and we don't have any heavy tail so we can conclude that we can approximate the differences with the normal distribution.

c) p_v =P(t_{(12)}>0.969) =0.353

So the p value is higher than the significance level given, so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So we can conclude that the mean differences is NOT significantly different from 0 .

Step-by-step explanation:

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in  which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example  if we have Before-and-after observations (This problem) we can use it.  

The Q-Q plot, or quantile-quantile plot, "is a graphical tool to help us assess if a set of data plausibly came from some theoretical distribution such as a Normal or exponential".

Let put some notation  

x=value for A , y = value for B

A: 379, 378, 328, 372, 325, 304, 356, 309, 354, 318, 355, 392

B: 372, 376, 328, 368, 283, 252, 369, 321, 379, 303, 328, 411

(a) Are the two samples paired or independent? Explain your answer.

Are dependent since we are mesuring at the same individuals but on different times and with a different method

(b) Make a normal QQ plot of the differences within each pair. Is it reasonable to assume a normal population of differences?

The first step is calculate the difference d_i=A_i-B_i and we obtain this:

d: 7,2,0,4,42,52,-13,-12,-25,15,27,-19

In order to do the qqplot we can use the following R code:

d<-c(7,2,0,4,42,52,-13,-12,-25,15,27,-19)

qqnorm(d)

And the graph obtained is attached.

If we see the qq plot we don't have any significant deviation for the values and we don't have any heavy tail so we can conclude that we can approximate the differences with the normal distribution.

(c) Choose a test appropriate for the hypotheses above and justify your choice based on your answers to parts (a) and (b). Perform the test by computing a p-value, make a test decision, and state your conclusion in the context of the problem

The system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_A- \mu_B = 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_A -\mu_B \neq 0

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}= \frac{80}{12}=6.67

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

s_d =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1} =23.849

The 4 step is calculate the statistic given by :

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{6.67 -0}{\frac{23.849}{\sqrt{12}}}=0.969

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=12-1=11

Now we can calculate the p value, since we have a two tailed test the p value is given by:

p_v =P(t_{(12)}>0.969) =0.353

So the p value is higher than the significance level given, so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So we can conclude that the mean differences is NOT significantly different from 0 .
