Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:
<em>m</em><em> - slope</em>
<em>b</em><em> - y-intercept → (0, b)</em>
The formula of a slope:
From the table we have an y-intercept (0, 9) → b = 9.
Take other point from the table (-6, -1).
Calculate the slope:
Finally:
The data is missing in the question. The data is provided below :
Document : 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
Brand A 17 29 18 14 21 25 22 29
Brand B 21 38 15 19 22 30 31 37
Solution :
State of the hypothesis of the null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis.
Null hypothesis :
Alternate hypothesis :
These hypothesis is a one tailed test. The null hypothesis will get rejected when the mean difference between the sample means is very small.
Significance level = 0.05
Therefore the standard error is :
= 3.602
And the degree of freedom, DF = 14
= -1.319
Here, = standard deviation of the sample 1
= standard deviation of the sample 2
= size of the sample 1
= size of the sample 2
= mean of the sample 1
= mean of the sample 2
d = the hypothesis difference between the population mean
The observed difference in a sample means t static of -1.32. From t distribution calculator to determine P() = 0.1042
Since the P value of 0.1042 is greater than significance level o 0.05, we therefore cannot reject the null hypothesis.
But from the test, we have no sufficient evidence that supports that Brand A is better than Brand B.
