Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 7.1 parts

/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is not at a normal level. The mean of 26 samples is 6.6 ppm with a standard deviation of 1.0. Assume the population is normally distributed. A level of significance of 0.01 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

t=\frac{6.6-7.1}{\frac{1.0}{\sqrt{26}}}=-2.550    

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=6.6 represent the sample mean

s=1.0 represent the sample standard deviation

n=26 sample size  

\mu_o =7.1 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.01 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is different from 7.1 ppm, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 7.1  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 7.1  

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".  

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:  

t=\frac{6.6-7.1}{\frac{1.0}{\sqrt{26}}}=-2.550

Step-by-step explanation:

Statement:

2-) ∠BAC = ∠EDC

<em>Reason:</em>

Angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal (Alternate Interior Angles Theorem)

Statement:

3-) AC = CD

<em>Reason:</em>

CPCTC ("Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent")

Statement:

4-) ∠BCA = ∠DCE

<em>Reason:</em>

Vertical Angles Theorem (states that vertical angles, angles that are opposite each other and formed by two intersecting straight lines, are congruent)

Statement:

5-) triangle ABC = triangle DEC

ASA Postulate

The ASA (Angle-Side-Angle) postulate states that if two angles and the included side of one triangle are congruent to two angles and the included side of another triangle, then the triangles are congruent. (The included side is the side between the vertices of the two angles.)

Write out the sample space for the given experiment. Use the following letters to indicate each choice: W for white, Y for yello
allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

S={WG, WE, WM, YG, YE, YM, BG, BE, BM}

Step-by-step explanation:

There are three possible color choices for the game room (White, Yellow or Blue), and three possible choices for the entertainment center (Gray, Ebony or Maple). This means that there are 9 possible outcomes, therefore, the sample space for the experiment is:

S={WG, WE, WM, YG, YE, YM, BG, BE, BM}
