Suppose you flip a coin and spin a spinner that is divided into 8 equal regions. Of the 8 equal regions, 3 are red, 4 are black

and 1 green. What is the probability of "tails" on the coin, and the spinner landing on red?

A study investigated the effectiveness of meditation training in reducing trait anxiety. The study evaluated subjects trait anxi

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean reduction in anxiety was (1.2, 8.6).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question.

The first step to solve this problem is finding how many degrees of freedom, we have. This is the sample size subtracted by 1. So

df = 27 - 1 = 26

99% confidence interval

Now, we have to find a value of T, which is found looking at the t table, with 26 degrees of freedom(y-axis) and a confidence level of $1 - \frac{1 - 0.99}{2} = 0.995$ . So we have T = 2.7787.

The margin of error is:

$M = T\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} = 2.7787\frac{6.9}{\sqrt{27}} = 3.7$

In which s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 4.9 - 3.7 = 1.2.

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 4.9 + 3.7 = 8.6.

The 99% confidence interval for the population mean reduction in anxiety was (1.2, 8.6).

Ibrahim wants to give each of his six friends 1 2/3 candy bars. How many candy bars does he need to buy?

denis-greek [22]

Answer:

10 candy bars

Step-by-step explanation:

Since each of his friends needs a candy bar, you need to multiply 6 and 1 ⅔ together.

First, convert 1 ⅔ into an improper fraction: this gives us ⁵⁄₃.

Next, multiply ⁶⁄₁ and ⁵⁄₃ together. To do this, you can visualize 6 as ⁶⁄₁ (which is the same thing). Now you have ⁶⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₃.

<u>Simplify:</u>

The 6 in the numerator and the 3 in the denominator cancel out. This gives us ²⁄₁ x ⁵⁄₁ , which is 2 x 5.

2 x 5 = 10

1. The US Mint has a specification that pennies have a mean weight of 2.5g. From a sample of 37 pennies, the mean weight is foun

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification

Step-by-step explanation:

z = (variate -mean)/ standard deviation

z= 2.5 - 2.4991 / 0.01648 = 0.0546

we are going to check the value of z in the normal distribution table, which is the table bounded by z.

checking for z= 0.0 under 55 gives 0.0219 (value gotten from the table of normal distribution)

we subtract the value of z from 0.5 (1- (0.5+0.0219)) = 0.4781 > 0.05claim

since 0.4781 > 0.05claim, therefore, the pennies does not conform to the US mints specification

the claim state a 5% significance level whereas the calculated significance level is 47.81%. therefore, the claim should be rejected
