N experiment was conducted to test the effect of a new stain remover. Twenty stains were treated with stain remover A and stain

remover B for a week, then the number of stains removed was measured. A significance test was conducted at the α = 0.10 level for the difference in the means of the number of stains removed between stain remover A and stain remover B. The test resulted in t = 1.37 and p = 0.17. If the alternative hypothesis in question is Ha: μA − μB ≠ 0, where μA equals the mean number of stains removed with stain remover A and μB equals the mean number of stains removed with stain remover B, what conclusion can be drawn?

Answer:

For this case the statistic calculated is t= 1.37

p_v =0.17

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level  given\alpha=0.1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that we have a difference between the two means at 10% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

\bar X_{A} represent the mean for the sample for A

\bar X_{B} represent the mean for the sample B

s_{A} represent the sample standard deviation for the sample A

s_{B}= represent the sample standard deviation for the sample B

n_{A}=20 sample size for the group poisoned

n_{B}=20 sample size for the group unpoisoned

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the two means are equal or not , the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis:\mu_{A} - \mu_{B} =0

Alternative hypothesis:\mu_{A} - \mu_{B} \neq 0

For this case is better apply a t test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X_{A}-\bar X_{B}}{\sqrt{\frac{s^2_{A}}{n_{A}}+\frac{s^2_{B}}{n_{B}}}} (1)

t-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

Calculate the statistic

For this case the statistic calculated is t= 1.37

Statistical decision

The significance level is 0.1 \alpha=0.1, but we can calculate the p value for this test. The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

df=n_{A}+n_{B}-2

The p value on this case is given

p_v =0.17

So the p value is a very high value and using the significance level  given\alpha=0,1 we see that p_v>\alpha so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, and there is enough evidence to conclude that we have a difference between the two means at 10% of significance.

Analyze the diagram below and complete the instructions that follow. (7x - 3) (12x -7) Solve for x.
yarga [219]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(7x-3)(12x-7)

we are solving for x and we are multiplying.

we start with the x's 7x*12x=  84x

-3*-7=21

so now we have

84x+21=0

the 0 is a placer for answering the question

we minus 21 to both sides

84x=-21

now we divide

84/-21= -4

x=-4

Bens teacher ask him to write a three- digit number that uses the digit 3 once and the digit 6 twice. The value of one 6 needs t
nata0808 [166]
We have three numbers to arrange so that 6 is 1/10 of the value of the other six.

Since position tells us whether we're talking about single, tens, hundreds, thousands (e.g. 25 is two times 10 plus five times 1) we know that the two sixes must be next to each other.

This leaves us with two options.
663 or 366.

In each of these cases the second 6 in the number is one tenth of the first 6.

If we look at the only other option: 636 we see that the second 6 is one hundredth of the value of the first 6.

The radius of a semicircle is 1 kilometer. what is the semicircle's perimeter? use 3.14 for pie.
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

5.14 km

Step-by-step explanation:

A semicircle is 1/2 of a circle so the perimeter is just 1/2 of the circumference

C = 2 * pi r for a circle so for a semicircle

1/2* 2* pi *r

pi*r

3.14 * 1

3.14

If we want to include the piece that closes the semicircle, we need to add the diameter

d = 2r = 2(1) = 2

2+3.14 = 5.14

Each square below represents one whole.<br> What percent is represented by the shaded area?<br> %
Fynjy0 [20]

Answer: 76%

Step-by-step explanation:

each sq represents whole 5*5 = 25 for the second = 25 , but - the shaded area to find the unshaded are 25 - 13 = 12 unshaded square

50 = 100 , 50 - 12 = 38 shaded area in total
