A newly hired basketball coach promised a high-paced attack that will put more points on the board than the team’s previously te

pid offense historically managed. After a few months, the team owner looks at the data to test the coach’s claim. He takes a sample of 36 of the team’s games under the new coach and finds that they scored an average of 101 points with a standard deviation of 6 points. Over the past 10 years, the team had averaged 99 points. What is the value of the appropriate test statistic to test the new coach’s claim at the 1% significance level? a. z = 2.00 b. t35 = 2.00 c. t35 = 0.33 d. z = 0.33

Answer:

a. z = 2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is "Points per game of a high school team"

The hypothesis is that the average score per game is greater than before, so the parameter to test is the population mean (μ)

The hypothesis is:

H₀: μ ≤ 99

H₁: μ > 99

α: 0.01

There is no information about the variable distribution, I'll apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the sample mean (X[bar]) to normal since whether you use a Z or t-test, you need your variable to be at least approximately normal. Considering the sample size (n=36) I'd rather use a Z-test than a t-test.

The statistic value under the null hypothesis is:

Z= X[bar] - μ  = 101 - 99 = 2

σ/√n 6/√36

I don't have σ, but since this is an approximation I can use the value of S instead.

I hope it helps!

Find the coordinates of a point that divides the directed line segment PQ in the ratio 5:3. A) (2, 2) B) (4, 1) C) (–6, 6) D) (4
Yuri [45]

Answer:

The answer is explained below

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete we need point P and point Q.

let us assume P is at (3,1) and Q is at (-2,4)

To find the coordinate of the point that divides a line segment PQ with point P at (x_1,y_1) and point Q at (x_2,y_2) in the proportion a:b, we use the formula:

x-coordinate:\\\frac{a}{a+b}(x_2-x_1)+x_1 \\\\While \ for\ y-coordinate:\\\frac{a}{a+b}(y_2-y_1)+y_1

line segment PQ  is divided in the ratio 5:3 let us assume P is at (3,1) and Q is at (-2,4). Therefore:

x-coordinate:\\\frac{5}{5+3}(-2-3)+3 \\\\While \ for\ y-coordinate:\\\frac{5}{5+3}(4-1)+1

Which expression can be used to determine the average rate of change in f(x) over the interval mc001-1.jpg
Mrac [35]
The average rate of change of a function f(x) over an interval (a, b) is given by
\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}

Therefore, given a function, f(x), over an interval (2, 9), the average rate of change of the function can be found using the expression
\frac{f(9)-f(2)}{9-2}
