Some college graduates employed full-time work more than hours per week, and some work fewer than hours per week. We suspect tha

t the mean number of hours worked per week by college graduates, , is different from hours and wish to do a statistical test. We select a random sample of college graduates employed full-time and find that the mean of the sample is hours and that the standard deviation is hours.

Answer:

a)Null hypothesis:\mu =40      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 40      

b) A Type of error I is reject the hypothesis that \mu is equal to 40 when is fact \mu is equal to 40c) We can commit a Type II Error, since by definition "A type II error is the non-rejection of a false null hypothesis and is known as "false negative" conclusion"Step-by-step explanation:Assuming this problem: "Some college graduates employed full-time work more than 40 hours per week, and some work fewer than 40 hours per week. We suspect that the mean number of hours worked per week by college graduates, [tex]\mu , is different from 40 hours and wish to do a statistical test. We select a random sample of college graduates employed full-time and find that the mean of the sample is 43 hours and that the standard deviation is 4 hours. Based on this information, answer the questions below"

Data given

\bar X=43 represent the sample mean

\mu population mean (variable of interest)

s=4 represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample size  

Part a: System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if actual mean is different from 40 , the system of hypothesis would be:    

Null hypothesis:\mu =40      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 40      

Part b

In th context of this tes, what is a Type I error?

A Type of error I is reject the hypothesis that \mu is equal to 40 when is fact [tex]\mu is equal to 40

Part c

Suppose that we decide not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might we be making.

We can commit a Type II Error, since by definition "A type II error is the non-rejection of a false null hypothesis and is known as "false negative" conclusion"

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What are the null hypothesis (H0) and the alternative hypothesis (H1) that should be used for the test?

A: H0: μ is  LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO

    H1: μ is  GREATER THAN

B: In the context of this test, what is a Type II error?

A Type II error is FAILING TO REJECT the hypothesis that μ is LESS THAN OR EQUAL TO  when, in fact, μ is GREATER THAN .

C: Suppose that we decide not to reject the null hypothesis. What sort of error might we be making? TYPE II

Write an equation that represents a vertical translation 7 units down of the graph of g(x)=|x|.
Sergio039 [100]

Answer: Ix+10I

Step-by-step explanation: To shift the graph 10 units to the left, we replace x with x+10. What's really going on is that the xy axis shifts 10 units to the right (because x is now x+10; eg, x = 2 ---> x+10 = 2+10 = 12) so it appears that the graph is moving to the left. The general rule is h(x) = g(x+10).

So,

g(x) = |x|

g(x+10) = |x+10| ... every x has been replaced with x+10

h(x) = g(x+10)

h(x) = |x+10|

We can use a graphing tool like GeoGebra to visually confirm we have the right answer (see attached). Note how a point like (0,0) on the green graph moves to (-10,0) on the red graph.

Solving Exponential Equations (lacking a common base)<br><br>(0.52)^q=4
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

q = log4 / log0.53

q = -2.189

Step-by-step explanation:

(0.53)^q = 4

Taking log of both sides!

q log 0.53 = log 4

q = log 4 / log 0.53

q = 0.602 / -0.275

q = - 2.189

This can be checked to confirm correctness.

Substituting q = -2.189

(0.53)^ -2.189 = 1/ 0.249

= 4.01 Proved!

(Note that the "1" is because of the negative sign)
