A simple random sample of 36 men from a normally distributed population results in a standard deviation of 10.1 beats per minute

. The normal range of pulse rates of adults is typically given as 60 to 100 beats per minute. If the range rule of thumb is applied to that normal​ range, the result is a standard deviation of 10 beats per minute. Use the sample results with a 0.10 significance level to test the claim that pulse rates of men have a standard deviation equal to 10 beats per minute.
Complete parts​ (a) through​ (c) below.
a. Identify the null and alternative hypotheses.
b. Compute the test statistic. χ2 = ___ (round to three decimals)
c. Find the​ P-value. ​P-value=____​(Round to four decimal places as​ needed.)
d. State the conclusion. (reject null/ eccept null)

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

sample size n = 36

standard deviation = 10.1

level of significance ∝ = 0.10

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as follows:

H_0 : \sigma = 10

H_1 : \sigma \neq 10

The test statistics can be computed as follows:

X^2 = \dfrac{(n -1)s^2 }{\sigma ^2}

X^2 = \dfrac{(36 -1)10.1^2 }{10^2}

X^2 = \dfrac{(35)102.01 }{100}

X^2 = \dfrac{3570.35 }{100}

X^2 =35.704

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 36 - 1 = 35

Since this test is two tailed .

The P -value can be determined by using the EXCEL FUNCTION ( = 2 × CHIDIST(35.7035, 35)

P - value = 2 × 0.435163515

P - value = 0.8703      ( to four decimal places)

Decision Rule : To reject the null hypothesis if  P - value is less than the 0.10

Conclusion: We fail to reject null hypothesis ( accept null hypothesis) since p-value is greater than 0.10 and we conclude that there is sufficient claim that the normal range of pulse rates of adults given as 60 to 100 beats per minute resulted to a standard deviation of 10 beats per minute.

Bumek [7]

Answer:

0.19975

Step-by-step explanation:

P = nCr pʳ qⁿ⁻ʳ

where n is the number of trials,

r is the number of successes,

p is the probability of success,

and q is the probability of failure (1−p).

Given:

n = 11

r = 9

p = 0.7

q = 0.3

Plugging in values:

P = ₁₁C₉ (0.7⁹) (0.3¹¹⁻⁹)

P = 0.19975

The length of the hypotenuse is??
yawa3891 [41]

Answer:

x = 14.31

Step-by-step explanation:

According to PYTHAGORAS Theorem,

let the Hypotenuse be x

{6}^{2}  +  {13}^{2}  =  {x}^{2}  \\ 36 + 169 =  {x}^{2}  \\ 205 =   {x}^{2}   \\  \sqrt{205}  = x \\ x = 14.31

Translate the following statements into symbolic form using capital letters to representaffirmative English statement.
ozzi

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two distinct statements but put together, it is:

- If Maria Cantwell (MC) promotes Alternative Energy (AE) and if Patty Murray (PM) supports Wilderness Areas (WA) then Dianne Feinstein (DF) advocating Gun Control (GC), implies that Susan Collins (SC) does so too.

For Susan Collins, she advocates gun control too.

So the symbolic or algebraic representation is:

(SC = DF): (MC ~ AE), (PM ~ WA)

OR

(GC = GC): (MC ~ AE), (PM ~ WA)

Where ":" represents "such that" or "given that"

" ~ " represents "support or promotion of"

It can now be read thus;

Susan Collins has same or equal interest as Dianne Feinstein, given that Maria Cantwell promotes alternative energy and Patty Murray supports Wilderness Areas.

You have 480 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular garden. You want the length of the garden to be 30 feet greater than the w
makkiz [27]

Answer:

L=135 W=105

Step-by-step explanation:

Your rectangle has two length sides and two width sides. That means two sides are 30 feet longer than the other sides. If you subtract 60 from 480, you get 420. Divide 420 by 4 and you get 105. So now you know the width sides are 105 feet long, so 105+105=210. Now all you have to do is add 30 to 105 and get 135. That is the length of the two longer sides. So add 135 and 135 to get 270. All you have to do is add 210 and 270 and you end up with the 480 feet of fence you were given. I know this is probably not the fancy way of doing it, but it works.
