The first eight quizzes in this class had average scores of 8,9,9,8,8,9,8,7. This gives a sample mean of 8.25 and a sample stand

alexira [117]

Answer:

Test statistic

$t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } }$

t = 1.076

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given Mean of the Population (μ) = 8.0

Mean of the sample (x⁻) = 8.25

Given data

8,9,9,8,8,9,8,7

Given sample size n= 8

Given sample standard deviation(S) = 0.661

Step(ii):-

Null hypothesis : H: (μ) = 8.0

Alternative Hypothesis :H:(μ) > 8.0

Degrees of freedom = n-1 = 8-1=7

Test statistic

$t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } }$

$t = \frac{8.25 -8.0}{\frac{0.661}{\sqrt{8} } }$

t = 1.076

Critical value

t₍₇,₀.₀₅₎ = 2.3646

The calculated value t = 1.076 < 2.3646 at 0.05 level of significance

Null hypothesis is accepted

Test the hypothesis that the true mean quiz score is 8.0 against the alternative that it is not greater than 8.0

An object is launched from a platform.

Bess [88]

Answer:

60 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The height, h (in meters), of the object launched from a platform is represented by the equation

$h=h(x)=-5x^2+20x+60$

where x is the time (in seconds) passed after the launch.

The time of launch is $x=0$ (0 seconds passed after the launch)

Substitute $x=0$ to find the height:

$h=h(0)=-5\cdot 0^2+20\cdot 0+60=60\ feet$
