An industrial psychologist conducted an experiment in which 40 employees that were identified as "chronically tardy" by their ma

nagers were divided into two groups of size 20. Group 1 participated in the new "It's Great to be Awake!" program, while Group 2 had their pay docked. The following data represent the number of minutes that employees in Group 1 were late for work after participating in the program.

Answer:

The probability plot of this distribution shows that it is approximately normally distributed..

Check explanation for the reasons.

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is attached to this solution provided.

From the cumulative probability plot for this question, we can see that the plot is almost linear with no points outside the band (the fat pencil test).

The cumulative probability plot for a normal distribution isn't normally linear. It's usually fairly S shaped. But, when the probability plot satisfies the fat pencil test, we can conclude that the distribution is approximately linear. This is the first proof that this distribution is approximately normal.

Also, the p-value for the plot was obtained to be 0.541.

For this question, we are trying to check the notmality of the distribution, hence, the null hypothesis would be that the distribution is normal and the alternative hypothesis would be that the distribution isn't normal.

The interpretation of p-valies is that

When the p-value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis (normal hypothesis) and but if the p-value is less than the significance level, we reject the null hypothesis (normal hypothesis).

For this distribution,

p-value = 0.541

Significance level = 0.05 (Evident from the plot)

Hence,

p-value > significance level

So, we fail to reject the null or normality hypothesis. Hence, we can conclude that this distribution is approximately normal.

Hope this Helps!!!

Hannah wants to rewrite 18+12 using the greatest common factor and the distributive property. Which expression should she write?
grigory [225]

Answer:

6(3+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Distributive property:

ab + ac = a(b+c)

where a = greatest common factor (GCF)

GCF of each factor

18 = 2×3×3

12 = 2×2×3

GCF of 18 and 12 = 2×3

= 6

Therefore,

18 + 12 = 6(3) + 6(2)

= 6(3+2)

Where,

6 = a

3 = b

2 = c

ab + ac = a(b+c)

What is the solution to this system of equations?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

  (x, y) = (5, -2)

Step-by-step explanation:

A graphing calculator provides a quick and easy way to find the solution.

_____

There are several other ways to solve these equations. Or you can estimate where the answer might be using logic like this:

The intercepts of the first equation are ...

  • x-intercept = 26/4 = 6 1/2
  • y-intercept = -26/3 = -8 2/3

So the graph of it will form a triangle with the axes in the 4th quadrant.

The intercepts of the second equation are ...

  • x-intercept = 11/3 = 3 2/3
  • y-intercept = 11/2 = 5 1/2

So the graph of it will form a triangle with the axes in the 1st quadrant. The x-intercept of this one is less than the x-intercept of the first equation, so the two lines must cross in the 4th quadrant.

The only 4th-quadrant answer choice is (5, -2).

Show an example of commutative property of addition
vaieri [72.5K]
For example, if we use 5+3=8.
If you change it to 3+5, it still equals 8.
Therefore, 3+5=5+3 because at the end, they both have equal value aka both end up with 8 using the same numbers. (goes by the rule a+b=b+a)
