A researcher tests five individuals who have seen paid political ads about a particular issue. These individuals take a multiple

-choice test about the issue in which people in general (who know nothing about the issue) usually get 40 questions correct. The number correct for these five individuals was 48, 41, 40, 51, and 50. Using the .05 level of significance, two-tailed, do people who see the ads score differently on this test

Answer:

t=\frac{46-40}{\frac{5.148}{\sqrt{5}}}=2.606    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=5-1=4  

The p value wuld be given by:

p_v =2*P(t_{(4)}>2.606)=0.060  

For this case the p value is higher than the significance level so then we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 40

The distribution with the critical values are in the figure attached

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

48, 41, 40, 51, and 50

The sample mean and deviation can be calculated with these formulas:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

s =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

\bar X=46 represent the mean height for the sample  

s=5.148 represent the sample standard deviation

n=5 sample size  

\mu_o =40 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.05 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

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true mean for this case is equal to 40, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 40  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 40  

The statistic is given by:

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

Replacing we got:

t=\frac{46-40}{\frac{5.148}{\sqrt{5}}}=2.606    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=5-1=4  

The p value wuld be given by:

p_v =2*P(t_{(4)}>2.606)=0.060  

For this case the p value is higher than the significance level so then we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly different from 40

The distribution with the critical values are in the figure attached

Q16. Find x^2 + 1/x^2 , if x + 1/x = 3
erica [24]

Answer:

2 \times  x \times \frac{1}{x}  =  2 \\  {x}^{2}   +  {y }^{2}  + 2xy =  {(x + y)}^{2} \\ {x}^{2}  +  \frac{1}{ {x}^{2} }  + 2 = {(x +  \frac{1}{x} })^{2}  =  {3}^{2}  = 9

Some farms use a hay elevator to move bales of hay to the second story of a barn loft. The bottom of the elevator is 9 meters fr
-Dominant- [34]

Answer: The height is 6.07 meters

Step-by-step Explanation: The distance between the elevator and the bottom of the barn is given as 9 meters. Also for the hay elevator to move bales of hay to the second story of the barn lift it makes an angle of elevation of 34 degrees with the ground. With these we can derive a right angled triangle with the reference angle as 34 degrees, the side facing it which is the height or h (opposite) is yet unknown, and the side between the reference angle and the right angle (adjacent) is 9. We shall apply the trigonometric ratio as follows;

Tan 34 = opposite/adjacent

Tan 34 = h/9

0.6745 = h/9

0.6745 x 9 = h

6.0705 = h

Therefore the approximate height of the barn to the ground is 6.07 meters

What is the range of this relation (2,-3),(-4,2),(6,2),(-5,-3),(-3,0)
maxonik [38]

<u>Answer:</u>

Range of this relation = -3, 2

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We are given the following relation and we are to find its range:

(2,-3),(-4,2),(6,2),(-5,-3),(-3,0)

The set of all the possible dependent values a relation can produce from its values of domain are called its range. In simple words, it is the list of all possible inputs (without repeating any numbers).

Therefore, the range of this relation is: -3, 2
