X+ 5/6= 3
⇒ x= 3 -5/6
⇒ x= 13/6
⇒ x= 2 1/6

The final answer is x= 2 1/6~

Answer:

Company B

Step-by-step explanation:

Company B has staff who works for less than 30 hours per week since it is a software company which freelances various technicians. They are free to work on the time of availability and there is no restriction of work to be done. They are paid on the basis of tasks they complete and they work remotely. The interviewer should select an employee from Company B because they work less than 30 hours per week.

What do i do please help!

Art [367]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

this is confusing b/c they are asking about two trains traveling at differnt speeds, but.. if you put the speeds together and make one train... imaginary.. ofc... traveling at the speed of both trains combined... when will it be 50 miles from the station?

maybe you can solve that? I'll solve it below.. but.. if you can.. try it now, on your own

below is my answer... don't look until you have solved yours :P

80+70= 150kph

when will this have traveled 50Km?

you may be able to see that it will take 1/3 of an hour to travel 50 km

so 60 minutes times 1/3 = 20 minutes :)

Examination of a large sample of people revealed a relationship between calcium intake and blood pressure. The relationship was

Vika [28.1K]

Answer:

a) The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (-1.171, 11.717).

b) No, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that increasing the amount of calcium in our diet reduce blood pressure (at a 5% significance level).

Step-by-step explanation:

The data for both groups are:

Group 1 (calcium): 7 -4 18 17 -3 -5 1 10 11 -2

Group 2 (placebo): -1 12 -1 -3 3 -5 5 2 -11 -1 -3

The mean and standard deviation for Group 1 is:

$M_1=\dfrac{1}{10}\sum_{i=1}^{10}(7+(-4)+18+17+(-3)+(-5)+1+10+11+(-2))\\\\\\ M_1=\dfrac{50}{10}=5$

$s_1=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(n-1)}\sum_{i=1}^{10}(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\$

$s_1=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{9}\cdot [(7-(5))^2+(-4-(5))^2+...+(-2-(5))^2]}\\\\\\$

$s_1=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{9}\cdot [(4)+(81)+(169)+(144)+(64)+(100)+(16)+(25)+(36)+(49)]}\\\\\\s_1=\sqrt{\dfrac{688}{9}}=\sqrt{76.44}\\\\\\s_1=8.743$

The mean and standard deviation for Group 2 is:

$M_2=\dfrac{1}{11}\sum_{i=1}^{11}((-1)+12+(-1)+(-3)+3+(-5)+5+2+(-11)+(-1)+(-3))\\\\\\ M_2=\dfrac{-3}{11}=-0.273$

$s_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(n-1)}\sum_{i=1}^{11}(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\$

$s_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{10}\cdot [(-1-(-0.273))^2+(12-(-0.273))^2+...+(-3-(-0.273))^2]}\\\\\\$

$s_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{10}\cdot [(0.53)+(150.62)+...+(115.07)+(0.53)+(7.44)]}\\\\\\s_2=\sqrt{\dfrac{348.182}{10}}=\sqrt{34.82}\\\\\\s_2=5.901$

a) We have to calculate a 95% confidence interval for the difference between means, with a T-model.

The Group 1, of size n1=10 has a mean of 5 and a standard deviation of 8.743.

The Group 2, of size n2=11 has a mean of -0.273 and a standard deviation of 5.901.

The difference between sample means is Md=5.273.

$M_d=M_1-M_2=5-(-0.273)=5.273$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{8.743^2}{10}+\dfrac{5.901^2}{11}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{7.644+3.166}=\sqrt{10.81}=3.288$

The degrees of freedom for this test are:

$df=n_1+n_2-1=10+11-2=19$

The critical t-value for a 95% confidence interval and 19 degrees of freedom is t=1.96.

The margin of error (MOE) can be calculated as:

$MOE=t\cdot s_{M_d}=1.96 \cdot 3.288=6.444$

Then, the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval are:

$LL=M_d-t \cdot s_{M_d} = 5.273-6.444=-1.171\\\\UL=M_d+t \cdot s_{M_d} = 5.273+6.444=11.717$

The 95% confidence interval for the mean is (-1.171, 11.717).

b) This is a hypothesis test for the difference between populations means.

The claim is that increasing the amount of calcium in our diet reduce blood pressure.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu_1-\mu_2=0\\\\H_a:\mu_1-\mu_2> 0

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample 1, of size n1=10 has a mean of 5 and a standard deviation of 8.743.

The sample 1, of size n1=11 has a mean of -0.273 and a standard deviation of 5.901.

The difference between sample means is Md=5.273.

$M_d=M_1-M_2=5-(-0.273)=5.273$

The estimated standard error of the difference between means is computed using the formula:

$s_{M_d}=\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1}+\dfrac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2}}=\sqrt{\dfrac{8.743^2}{10}+\dfrac{5.901^2}{11}}\\\\\\s_{M_d}=\sqrt{7.644+3.166}=\sqrt{10.81}=3.288$

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

$t=\dfrac{M_d-(\mu_1-\mu_2)}{s_{M_d}}=\dfrac{5.273-0}{3.288}=\dfrac{5.273}{3.288}=1.604$

The degrees of freedom for this test are:

$df=n_1+n_2-1=10+11-2=19$

This test is a right-tailed test, with 19 degrees of freedom and t=1.604, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

$P-value=P(t>1.604)=0.063$

As the P-value (0.063) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that increasing the amount of calcium in our diet reduce blood pressure.

Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 99% of all males. Men have hip breadth

djverab [1.8K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Engineers want to design seats in commercial aircraft so that they are wide enough to fit 98% of all males. Men have hip breadths that are normally distributed with a mean of 14.4 inches and a standard deviation of 1 inch. find P98. I really don't understand, help needed please.

-----------------------

Find the z-value with a left tail of 0.98

invNorm(0.98) = 2.0537

-----

Find the corresponding x-value using x = zs+u

----

x = 2.0537*1+14.4

---

x = 16.45 inches
