Researchers measured skulls from different time periods in an attempt to determine whether interbreeding of cultures occurred. R

esults are given below. Assume that both samples are independent simple random samples from populations having normal distributions. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the variation of maximal skull breadths in 4000 B.C. is the same as the variation in A.D. 150.

Answer:

C. Fail to reject Upper H 0. There is insufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim that the variation of maximal skull breadths in 4000 B.C. is the same as the variation in A.D. 150

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

You have two different independent samples and are asked to test if the population variances of both variables are the same.

Sample 1 (4000 B.C)

X₁: Breadth of a skull from 4000 B.C. (mm)

X₁~N(μ₁;σ₁²)

n₁= 30 skulls

X[bar]₁= 131.62 mm

S₁= 5.19 mm

Sample 2 (A.D. 150)

X₂: Breadth of a skull from 150 A.D. (mm)

X₂~N(μ₂;σ₂²)

n₂= 30 skulls

X[bar]₂= 136.07 mm

S₂= 5.35 mm

Since you want to test the variances, the proper test to do is an F-test for the population variance ratio. The hypothesis can be established as equality between variances or as a quotient between them.

The hypothesis is:

H₀: σ₁²/σ₂² = 1

H₁: σ₁²/σ₂² ≠ 1

Remember, when you express the hypothesis as a quotient of variances, if it's true that they are the same, the result will be 1, this is the number you'll use to replace in the F-statistic.

α: 0.05

F= (S₁²/S₂²) * (σ₁²/σ₂²) ~F_{n1-1;n2-1}

F= (5.19/5.35)*1 = 0.97

The p-value = 0.5324

Since the p-value is greater than the level of significance, the decision is to not reject the null hypothesis.

Using critical values:

Left: FF_{n1-1;n2-1;\alpha /2} = \frac{1}{F_{n2-1;n1-1;1-\alpha /2} } = \frac{1}{F_{29;29;0.95} } = \frac{1}{2.10} } =0.47

Right: F_{n1-1; n2-1; 1-\alpha /2} = F_{29; 29; 0.975} = 2.10

The calculated F-value (0.97) is in the not rejection zone (0.47<F<2.10) ⇒ Don't reject the null hypothesis.

I hope this helps!

Question 1. 7:11
Question 2. 27 units of K

How to solve the questions-
1. 14/22 divide the numerator and the denominator by 2. This would give you 7/11

2. If the ratio is 12/9 and the amount of N is 36, you’re basically multiplying 12 *3, so then you have to multiply 9 *3=27.

What is the reason for each strip on the solution of the equation?
Pani-rosa [81]

Step 1: Given

Step 2:  Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of  Equality

Step 4: Division Property of  Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to match the reason with the correct step in the equation.

Equation:

Given:

2x = -4(x-3)

Applying Distributive property a(b+c)=ab+ac

2x=-4x+12

Now, Applying addition property of equality:

Adding +4x on both sides

2x+4x=-4x+12+4x\\6x=12

Now, Applying Division property of Equality:

Divide both sides by 6:

\frac{6x}{6}=\frac{12}{6}\\x=2

So, Answer will be:

Step 1: Given

Step 2:  Distributive Property

Step 3: Addition Property of  Equality

Step 4: Division Property of  Equality

Determine if the segment X is half the length, double the length, two thirds the length, or the same length as segment Y.
Ipatiy [6.2K]
The right answer is The Same Length.
The triangle displayed is Isosceles. The explanation of this statement is the fact that the Line which is making a right angle it is also the one that slices the segment into equal segments. Mathematically speaking, in our triangle the 
Median is perpendicular on the segment from which results that the triangle is Isosceles and x = y.
