Simply add up all.

4  1/2  +    6  2/3  + 9  1/4

(4 + 6 + 9) +    1/2  + 2/3 + 1/4

19                    6/12 + 8/12 + 3/12 = (6+8+3)/12 = 17/12

19      17/12
 
19       1 5/12

19 + 1  5/12

= 20   5/12

20   5/12    yards was purchased.

Two catalysts may be used in a batch chemical process. Twelve batches were prepared using catalyst 1, resulting in an average yi
aalyn [17]

Answer:

a) t=\frac{(91-85)-(0)}{2.490\sqrt{\frac{1}{12}}+\frac{1}{15}}=6.222  

df=12+15-2=25  

p_v =P(t_{25}>6.222) =8.26x10^{-7}

So with the p value obtained and using the significance level given \alpha=0.01 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

b) (91-85) -2.79 *2.490 \sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{15}} =3.309

(91-85) +2.79 *2.490 \sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{15}} =8.691

Step-by-step explanation:

Notation and hypothesis

When we have two independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances we are assuming that  

\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2  

And the statistic is given by this formula:  

t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}}+\frac{1}{n_2}}  

Where t follows a t distribution with n_1+n_2 -2 degrees of freedom and the pooled variance S^2_p is given by this formula:  

\S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}  

This last one is an unbiased estimator of the common variance \sigma^2  

Part a

The system of hypothesis on this case are:  

Null hypothesis: \mu_2 \leq \mu_1  

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_2 > \mu_1  

Or equivalently:  

Null hypothesis: \mu_2 - \mu_1 \leq 0  

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_2 -\mu_1 > 0  

Our notation on this case :  

n_1 =12 represent the sample size for group 1  

n_2 =15 represent the sample size for group 2  

\bar X_1 =85 represent the sample mean for the group 1  

\bar X_2 =91 represent the sample mean for the group 2  

s_1=3 represent the sample standard deviation for group 1  

s_2=2 represent the sample standard deviation for group 2  

First we can begin finding the pooled variance:  

\S^2_p =\frac{(12-1)(3)^2 +(15 -1)(2)^2}{12 +15 -2}=6.2  

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:  

S_p=2.490  

Calculate the statistic

And now we can calculate the statistic:  

t=\frac{(91-85)-(0)}{2.490\sqrt{\frac{1}{12}}+\frac{1}{15}}=6.222  

Now we can calculate the degrees of freedom given by:  

df=12+15-2=25  

Calculate the p value

And now we can calculate the p value using the altenative hypothesis:  

p_v =P(t_{25}>6.222) =8.26x10^{-7}

Conclusion

So with the p value obtained and using the significance level given \alpha=0.01 we have p_v so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Part b

For this case the confidence interval is given by:

(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2) \pm t_{\alpha/2} S_p \sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2}}

For the 99% of confidence we have \alpha=1-0.99 = 0.01 and \alpha/2 =0.005 and the critical value with 25 degrees of freedom on the t distribution is t_{\alpha/2}= 2.79

And replacing we got:

(91-85) -2.79 *2.490 \sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{15}} =3.309

(91-85) +2.79 *2.490 \sqrt{\frac{1}{12} +\frac{1}{15}} =8.691

Anthony teaches a pottery painting class in order to save up money for a nice
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

Anthony teaches a pottery painting class in order to save up money for a nice

bike. In yesterday's class, 5 of the 11 students painted piggy banks.

If Anthony randomly chose 4 of the pieces of pottery to glaze, fire, and set on

the top shelf in a certain order, what is the probability that just the first 2 of the

chosen pieces of pottery are piggy banks?

Graph the line whose x-intercept is -1 and whose y-intercept is 4.<br> x<br> 5<br> ?
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

the x axis is the one that lies flat horizontal this is called the run. the y intercept is the one that goes up and down standing. now you have to plot a dot on the line x moving toward the negative 1 and go up to y meeting up to 4 and that should give you the line to graph
