A demographer wants to measure life expectancy in countries 1 and 2. Let μ1 and μ2 denote the mean life expectancy in countries

1 and 2, respectively. Specify the hypothesis to determine if life expectancy in country 1 is more than 10 years lower than in country 2.

Answer:

For this case we want to test if life expectancy in country 1 is more than 10 years lower than in country 2, (alternatibe hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 \leq \mu_2 -10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 > \mu_2 -10

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \leq 10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 - \mu_2 >10

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts

A hypothesis is defined as "a speculation or theory based on insufficient evidence that lends itself to further testing and experimentation. With further testing, a hypothesis can usually be proven true or false".  

The null hypothesis is defined as "a hypothesis that says there is no statistical significance between the two variables in the hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that the researcher is trying to disprove".

The alternative hypothesis is "just the inverse, or opposite, of the null hypothesis. It is the hypothesis that researcher is trying to prove".

Solution to the problem

For this case we want to test if life expectancy in country 1 is more than 10 years lower than in country 2, (alternatibe hypothesis), so then the system of hypothesis are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 \leq \mu_2 -10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 > \mu_2 -10

Or equivalently:

Null hypothesis: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \leq 10

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_1 - \mu_2 >10

Complete the solution of the equation find the value of y when x equals 2. -8x - 5y = -1
tatuchka [14]

Answer: y = -3

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

-8x - 5y = -1

<u>+8x        </u>  <u>+8x </u>

       -5y = 8x  - 1

       <u> ÷-5 </u> <u> ÷-5</u>  <u>÷-5</u>

           y = -\frac{8}{5}x + \frac{1}{5}

       y(2) = -\frac{8}{5}(2) + \frac{1}{5}

               = -\frac{16}{5} + \frac{1}{5}

               = -\frac{15}{5}

                = -3

professor190 [17]
Well, from 2008 to 2010 is just 2 years, so let's say the initial amount is the 19300 from 2008, how many will it be in 2010?

\bf \qquad \textit{Amount for Exponential Growth}\\\\&#10;A=I(1 + r)^t\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\&#10;I=\textit{initial amount}\to &19300\\&#10;r=rate\to 20\%\to \frac{20}{100}\to &0.20\\&#10;t=\textit{elapsed time}\to &2\\&#10;\end{cases}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;A=19300(1+0.2)^2

For the equation given below, evaluate y′ at the point (−2,2)<br> xe^y−4y=2x−4−2e^2
jeka94
Implicit differentiation
chain rule is important here

I'll show the steps partially
e^y+xe^yy'-4y'=2
xe^yy'-4y'=2-e^y
y'(xe^y-4)=2-e^y
y'=\dfrac{2-e^y}{xe^y-4}
now evaluate for (-2,2)
x=-2 and y=2
y'=\dfrac{2-e^2}{-2e^2-4}
y'=\dfrac{2-e^2}{-2e^2-4}
y'=\dfrac{e^2-2}{2e^2+4}
that's it, simplest form
