mple random sample of the fish every week after hatching to track their growth. if their average length is too short or too long, they are not maturing properly and further tests must be done to determine the cause. she randomly selects 30 fish from those hatched five weeks ago and observes a mean length of 10.1 inches and a standard deviation of 1.8 inches. the value of the test statistic is ________.

A test statistic is a parameter used during a hypothesis test to determine whether to accept or reject the null hypothesis. There are 2 test statistics, the z-score and t-score. The main difference is that the t-score is used when sample size is not greater than 30. Therefore we will use the t-score in this case.

The formula for t-score is:

t-score = (x – μ<span>) / (s / sqrt n)               -----> equation 1</span>

Where,

x = sample mean = 10.1

μ = population mean = 9.7

s = sample standard deviation = 1.8

<span> n = sample size = 30</span>

Substituting the given values in equation 1:

t-score = (10.1 – 9.7) / (1.8 / sqrt(30))

t-score = 1.22

<span>Answer: The test statistic is 1.22.</span>

$46 shoes; 2.9% tax some one please help me and i'm new in this site
ZanzabumX [31]
If you would like to know the value of the 2.9% tax, you can calculate this using the following steps:

2.9% tax of $46 shoes = 2.9% * 46 = 2.9/100 * 46 = $1.334

If you would like to know what is the whole price you have to pay for the shoes (including the tax), you have to add $46 and $1.334:

$46 + $1.334 = $47.334
