The sales of a grocery store had an average of $8,000 per day. The store introduced several advertising campaigns in order to in

crease sales. To determine whether or not the advertising campaigns have been effective in increasing sales, a sample of 64 days of sales was selected. It was found that the average was $8,300 per day. From past information, it is known that the standard deviation of the population is $1,200. The value of the test statistic is:
The p-value is, (round to 4 decimal places):

Answer:

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 8000  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 8000  

z=\frac{8300-8000}{\frac{1200}{\sqrt{64}}}=2  

p_v =P(Z>2)=0.0228  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Data given and notation  

\bar X=8300 represent the sample mean  

\sigma=1200 represent the population standard deviation  

n=64 sample size  

\mu_o =800 represent the value that we want to test  

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

2) State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is higher than 8000, the system of hypothesis are :  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 8000  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 8000  

Since we know the population deviation, is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}} (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

3) Calculate the statistic  

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

z=\frac{8300-8000}{\frac{1200}{\sqrt{64}}}=2  

4) P-value  

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would given by:  

p_v =P(Z>2)=0.0228  

5) Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed, for example \alpha=0.05 we see that p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean is significantly higher than $8000.

Answer:

2 \dfrac{1}{4}

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 \dfrac{1}{2} + 7 \dfrac{3}{4} =

= -5 \dfrac{2}{4} + 7 \dfrac{3}{4}

= 7 \dfrac{3}{4} - 5 \dfrac{2}{4}

= 2 \dfrac{1}{4}

Which choice does NOT describe a parallelogram?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: B. A quadrilateral that has diagonals that do not bisect each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • A parallelogram is a quadrilateral whose opposite sides are equal or congruent and parallel. Also, the opposite sides in parallelogram are equal or congruent and the sum of  two adjacent angles is 180 degrees.The diagonals of parallelogram bisect each other.

Therefore by the properties of parallelogram the choice that does NOT describe a parallelogram is " <em>A quadrilateral that has diagonals that do not bisect each other</em>.".
