The paint used to make lines on roads must reflect enough light to be clearly visible at night. Let mu denote the true average r

eflectometer reading for a new type of paint under consideration. A test of
H0:μ=20 versus Ha:μ is greater than 20 will be based on a random sample of size n from a normal population distribution. What conclusion is appropriate in each of the following situations? (Round your P-values to three decimal places.)
a. n = 17, t = 3.1, α=0.05
State the conclusion in the problem context.
A. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
B. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
C. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
D. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
b. n = 10, t = 1.8, α=0.01
State the conclusion in the problem context.
A. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
B. Reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.
C. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.

Answer:

a) D. Reject the null hypothesis. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.

b) C. Do not reject the null hypothesis. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We have a hypothesis test with the following hypothesis:

H_0: \mu=20\\\\H_a:\mu> 20

The significance level is 0.05 for this right-tailed test.

The sample size is n=17.

This means we have 16 degrees of freedom.

df=n-1=17-1=16

The test statistic has already been calculated and has a value of t=3.1.

This test is a right-tailed test, with 16 degrees of freedom and t=3.1, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t>3.1)=0.0034

As the P-value (0.0034) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), the effect is significant.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to support the claim that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.

b. The hypothesis are the same as point a:

H_0: \mu=20\\\\H_a:\mu> 20

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=10-1=9

The significance level is 0.01.

The test statistic has already been calculated and has a value of t=1.8.

This test is a right-tailed test, with 9 degrees of freedom and t=1.8, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t>1.8)=0.0527

As the P-value (0.0527) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

At a significance level of 0.01, there is not enough evidence to support the claim that the new paint has a reflectometer reading higher than 20.

In a test (+5) marks are given for every correct answer and (-2) marks are given for every incorrect answer. Radhika answered al
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

10 incorrect answers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, you can say that 5 marks for the number of correct answers minus two marks for the number of incorrect answers is equal to 30 that is the score that Radhika got:

(5*10)-2x= 30, where x is the number of incorrect answers.

Now, you can solve for x:

50-2x=30

50-30=2x

20=2x

x=20/2

x=10

According to this, the answer is that they attempted 10 incorrect answers.

Explain how to determine if something is a vector space or not
nlexa [21]
All you do is referring to the following definition:

Definition: A<span> vector space </span>is a set V on which two operations + and · are defined, called<span> vector addition </span>and<span> scalar multiplication.</span>

The operation + (vector addition) must satisfy the following conditions:

Closure: If u and v are any vectors in V, then the sum   u + v   belongs to V.

(1)<span> Commutative law: </span>For all vectors u and v in V,     u + v = v + u

(2)<span> Associative law: </span>For all vectors u, v, w in V,     u <span>+ (v</span> + w<span>) = (u</span> + v) + w

(3)<span> Additive identity: </span>The set V contains an<span> additive identity </span>element, denoted by 0, such that for any vector v in V,     0 + v = v   and   v + 0 = v.

(4)<span> Additive inverses: </span>For each vector v in V, the equations     v + x = 0   and   x + v = 0     have a solution x in V, called an<span> additive inverse </span>of v, and denoted by - v.

The operation · (scalar multiplication) is defined between real numbers (or scalars) and vectors, and must satisfy the following conditions:

Closure: If v in any vector in V, and c is any real number, then the product   c · v   belongs to V.

(5)<span> Distributive law: </span>For all real numbers c and all vectors u, v in V,     c · <span>(u</span> + v) = c · u + c · v

(6)<span> Distributive law</span>: For all real numbers c, d and all vectors v in V,     (c+d) · v = c · v + d · v

(7)<span> Associative law</span>: For all real numbers c,d and all vectors v in V,     c · (d · v) = (cd) · v

(8)<span> Unitary law</span>: For all vectors v in V,     1 · v = <span>v</span>

Find the mean, median, and mode of the data set. Round to the nearest tenth. 15, 13, 9, 9, 7, 1, 11, 10, 13, 1, 13 mean = 8.5, m
jasenka [17]

Answer:

Mean = 9.3

Median = 10

Mode = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the mean, you would have to add up all of the numbers (102), then divide how many numbers you have with the numbers added up (9.3). To get the median, you would have to put all of the numbers that you have, in order, from least to greatest and cross off each number, one from each side before getting to the number in the middle (unless if you have an even number; works better with odd numbers, which is easier). To get the mode, you would need to find out which number appears the most, and, if there is more than one, you can put the numbers down. Hope this helps.
