Let x be a random variable representing dividend yield of Australian bank stocks. We may assume that x has a normal distribution

with s = 2.3%. A random sample of 11 Australian bank stocks has a mean x = 9.89%. For the entire Australian stock market, the mean dividend yield is μ = 7.9%. Do these data indicate that the dividend yield of all Australian bank stocks is higher than 7.9%? Use a = 0.05. What is the level of significance?
a. 0.025
b. 0.050
c. 0.100
d. 0.900
e. 0.975

Answer:

a) 0.025 level of significance

The calculated t - value t = 2.88 > 3.58 at 0.025 level of significance

Therefore null hypothesis is rejected

The data indicate that the dividend yield of all Australian bank stocks is higher than 7.9%

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i):-</em></u>

Let 'x' has a normal distribution

Given sample size 'n' =11

Mean of the sample (x⁻)  = 9.89% = 0.0989

Standard deviation of the sample (s) = 2.3% = 0.023

Mean of the Population ' μ' = 7.9% = 0.079

<u><em>Step(ii):-</em></u>

<u><em>Null hypothesis:H₀:</em></u>' μ'  = 0.079

<u><em>Alternative Hypothesis</em></u> :μ'  > 0.079

Test statistic  

         t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } }

        t = \frac{0.0989-0.079}{\frac{0.023}{\sqrt{11} } }

       t =  2.8840

Degrees of freedom

ν = n-1 = 11-1 =10

<em>Level of significance </em>

t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = t_{\frac{0.05}{2} } = t_{0.025}

t_{0.025} , 10 = 3.5814

<u><em>Step(iii):-</em></u>

<em>The calculated t - value t = 2.88 > 3.58 at 0.025 level of significance</em>

<em>Therefore null hypothesis is rejected</em>

<em>The data indicate that the dividend yield of all Australian bank stocks is higher than 7.9%</em>

Seth is using the figure shown below to prove Pythagorean Theorem using triangle similarity. In the given triangle ABC, angle A
lana66690 [7]

The relationship between the lengths of the sides of a right triangle are

given by Pythagoras theorem.

  • Part A: <u>ΔABC is similar to ΔADC</u>
  • Part B: ΔABC and ΔADC are similar according <u>AA similarity postulate</u>
  • Part C: <u>DA = 6</u>

Reasons:

Part A:

∠A = 90°

Segment AD ⊥ Segment BC

Location of point D = Side BC

Part A: In triangle ΔABC, we have;

∠A = 90°, ∠B = 90° - ∠C

In triangle ΔADC, we have;

∠ADC = 90°, ∠DAC = 90° - ∠C

∴ <u>ΔABC is similar to ΔADC</u> by Angle-Angle, AA, Similarity Postulate

Part B: The triangles are similar according to <u>AA similarity postulate</u>,

because two angles in one triangle are equal to two angles in the other

triangle and therefore, by subtraction property of equality, the third angle

in both triangles are also equal.

Part C: The length of DB = 9

The length of DC = 4

Required: Length of segment DA

In triangle ΔABD, we have;

∠BDA = 90°= ∠ADC

∠DAC ≅ ∠B by Congruent Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent

Therefore;

ΔABD ~ ΔADC by AA similarity, which gives;

\displaystyle \frac{\overline{DA}}{\overline{DC}}  = \frac{\overline{BD}}{\overline{DA}}

\overline{DA}^2 = \overline{DC} \times \overline{BD}

Which gives;

\overline{DA}^2 = 4 × 9 = 36

\overline{DA} = √(36) = 6

\overline{DA}<u> = 6</u>

In fig if x+y=w+z then prove that AOB is a line.​
frez [133]

Answer:

As Given, x+y=w+z

To Prove: AOB is a line or x+y=180

∘

(linear pair.)

According to the question,

x+y+w+z=360

∘

∣ Angles around a point.

(x+y)+(w+z)=360

∘

(x+y)+(x+y)=360

∘

∣ Given x+y=w+z

2(x+y)=360

∘

(x+y)=180

∘

Hence, x+y makes a linear pair.

Therefore, AOB is a straight line
