MATH - VOLUME OF FIGURE

Katy used 3/4 of a 6 ft board for a science fair project. How many inches did she use?

adoni [48]

She used 54 inches. 3/4 is equal to .75 so you can find 3/4 of the board by taking the fool length and multiplying it by .75 so 6•.75=4.5. So 3/4 of the board is 4.5 ft. However, the answer has to be in inches so since there are 12 inches in a foot you multiply 4.5•12 and that gives you your answer:54 inches.

The residents of a city voted on whether to raise property taxes. The ratio of yes votes to no votes was

alekssr [168]

The formula would be set up as ratios (or fractions). The first ratio is 6:5, which in total is 11. There were 6 yes out of 11, so the fraction = 6/11.

The second fraction has a total of 5918, however you do not know the amount of yes votes, so the variable placeholder will be called "x".

The final formula would be:
6/11 = x/5918

You do cross multiplication and you get:
11x = 35508. You divide both sides, and you get x = 3228.

Because x is the placeholder for the amount of yes votes, and x = 3228, the amount of yes votes is 3228

Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

With outlier (102)

$t=\frac{126.2-125}{\frac{9.138}{\sqrt{10}}}=0.415$

$p_v =P(t_{9}>0.415)=0.344$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 125 feet at 5% of significance.

Without outlier (102)

$t=\frac{128.89-125}{\frac{3.551}{\sqrt{9}}}=3.285$

$p_v =P(t_{8}>3.285)=0.0056$

And we conclude that we reject the null hypothesis since $p_v$ . So the final conclusion would be not use the method since the value of 102 observed can be a potential outlier, removing this value we see that we reject the null hypothesis and we have a significant result that the true mean is higher than 125.

Step-by-step explanation:

Previous concepts and data given

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

Data: 129, 128, 130, 132, 135, 123, 102, 125, 128, 130

We can calculate the mean with the following formulas:

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

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

$\bar X=126.2$ represent the sample mean

$s=9.138$ represent the sample standard deviation

n=10 represent the sample selected

$\alpha$ significance level

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is significantly higher than 125, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 125$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 125$

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

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

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{126.2-125}{\frac{9.138}{\sqrt{10}}}=0.415$

P-value

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=10-1= 9$

Then since is a right tailed sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{9}>0.415)=0.344$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the true mean is not significantly higher than 125 feet at 5% of significance.

Using all the data we see that we don;t have enough info to conclude that the true mean is higher than 125, but if we see careful 9 of the 10 values are over the limit of 125 feet. And if we repeat the procedure with the outlier of 102. We got this:

$\bar X=128.89$ represent the sample mean

$s=3.551$ represent the sample standard deviation

$t=\frac{128.89-125}{\frac{3.551}{\sqrt{9}}}=3.285$

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

$df=n-1=9-1= 8$

Then since is a right tailed sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{8}>3.285)=0.0056$

And we conclude that we reject the null hypothesis since $p_v$ . So the final conclusion would be not use the method since the value of 102 observed can be a potential outlier removing this value we see that we reject the null hypothesis and we have a significant result that the true mean is higher than 125.
