1) Define, in words.
A. The total difference in husband and wife marriage ages in Cumberland County; μd.
B. Average age of men and average age of women; μm and μw.
C. The average difference in husband and wife marriage ages in Cumberland County; μd.
2) Select the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses in the context of the study.
A. Null: The average difference in marriage ages in Cumberland County is 0. Alt: The average difference in marriage ages is not 0.
B. Null: The average difference in marriage ages in Cumberland County is not 0. Alt: The average difference in marriage ages is 0.
C. Null: The average difference in marriage ages in Cumberland County is 0. Alt: The average difference in marriage ages is less than 0.
D. Null: The average difference in marriage ages in Cumberland County is 0. Alt: The average difference in marriage ages is greater than 0.
3) Select the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses in the context of the study depicted using symbols
A. Null: μd = 0, Alt: μd > 0
B. Null: μd = 0, Alt: μd ≠ 0
C. Null: μd > 0, Alt: μd = 0
D. Null: μd = 0, Alt: μd < 0
4) For the 24 couples, the husbands are, on average, 1.875 years older than their wives (SD = 4.812). Use these statistics and the Theory-Based Inference applet to conduct a test of significance and report the resulting p-value to four decimal places.​
5) Based on the p-value, do you have strong evidence that, on average, husbands are older than their wives in Cumberland County?

Answer:

See explanation below

Explanation:

1) Option C is correct.

The average difference in husband and wife marriage ages in Cumberland County; μd

2) Option D is correct.

Null: The average difference in marriage ages in Cumberland County is 0.

Alt: The average difference in marriage ages is greater than 0.

3) Option A is correct

Null: μd = 0

Alt: μd > 0

4) Given:

n = 24

d' = 1.875

Sd = 4.812

Find test statistic:

t = \frac{d'}{Sd/\sqrt{n}}

= \frac{1.875}{4.812/\sqrt{24}}

t = 1.909

Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 = 24 - 1 = 23

Pvalue = (t_2_3 > 1.909) = 0.0344

Pvalue = 0.0344

Significance level = 0.05

5) Since p value is less than significance level, reject null hypothesis H0

Hence, there is strong evidence that, on average, husbands are older than their wives in Cumberland County

What is the length of Line segment A C? Round to the nearest tenth. 3.0 cm. 9.8 cm. 10.5 cm. 12.8 cm.
Simora [160]

Answer:

10.5 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

A line segment is defined as a part of a line. It is a straight line having two end points. The only difference between a line and line segment is that a line is continuous with indefinite length whereas a line segment has a definite length to it between the two points.

In the figure, the length of the line segment is 10.5 cm (rounded to the nearest tenth).
