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.

Sally bought 124 sheets of stickers. Each sheet had 14 stickers. She gave away 204 stickers to her family and friends on Christm
frez [133]

Answer:

Sally has 1,532 stickers remaining.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to determine the total amount of stickers Sally bought by multiplying the number of sheets she bought for the number of stickers in each sheet:

124*14=1,736

Now, you have to subtract the number of stickers Sally gave away to her family and friends from the total amount of stickers she bought:

1,736-204=1,532

According to this, the answer is that Sally has 1,532 stickers remaining.

The graph below does not represent a function. Explain why.
Simora [160]

Notice how points T and Z are vertically aligned, or vertically lined up. This is where the graph fails the vertical line test.

The input x = 2 leads to the outputs y = 3 and y = 5 (which are the y coordinates of points Z and T in that order).

A function is only possible when any given input leads to <u>exactly one</u> output only. It would be like saying "the conversion function from Celsius to Fahrenheit has 0 degrees C convert to both 32 degrees F and 50 degrees F at the same time". But such a statement makes no sense and it's not useful. So this is one example of why having one output makes sense for a function.

In short, we need one output for any given input. But the input x = 2 leads to more than one output. That's why we don't have a function.

Find the mean of the integers
mrs_skeptik [129]

We need to find mean of given integers.

We have -16,39,-10,-16,12,31.

In order to find mean, we need to add all the given inetgers.

Therefore, putting plus sign in between integers.

-16+ 39+ (-10)+(-16)+12+31 .

We will add all positive number 39+12+31 = 82

We will add all negative numbers by negative numbers, -16-10-16 = -42.

Therefore,  -16+ 39+ (-10)+(-16)+12+31  = 82 - 42 = 40.

We have given total 6 integers.

So, in order to find the mean, we need to apply following formula

Mean = \frac{Sum \ of \ all \ number }{Total \ numbers}

We get,

Mean = 40/6 = 6.66666......

We can round it to 6.67.

Therefore, mean of the given integers = 6.67 (approximately) .
