An article describes a study comparing two methods of measuring mean arterial blood pressure. The auscultatory method is based o

n listening to sounds in a stethoscope, while the oscillatory method is based on oscillations in blood flow. Following are measurements on six subjects in mmHg, consistent with means and standard deviations presented in the article. Auscultatory Oscillatory Difference 92.9 86.3 6.6 101.5 97.3 4.2 74.3 79.8 −5.5 95.0 98.1 −3.1 91.4 82.1 9.3 80.6 84.5 −3.9 Can you conclude that the mean reading is greater for the auscultatory method?

Answer:

p_v =P(t_{(5)}>0.499) =0.319

The p value is higher than any significance level given for example \alpha=0.05,0.1, so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the mean reading is greater for the auscultatory method at 5% or 10% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

A paired t-test is used to compare two population means where you have two samples in  which observations in one sample can be paired with observations in the other sample. For example  if we have Before-and-after observations we can use it.  

Let put some notation  

x=Auscultatory method , y = Oscillatory method

x: 74 86 84 79 70 78 79 70

y: 70 85 90 110 71 80 69 74

The system of hypothesis for this case are:

Null hypothesis: \mu_x- \mu_y \leq 0

Alternative hypothesis: \mu_x -\mu_y >0

The first step is define the difference d_i=x_i-y_i, that is given so we have:

d: 6.6, 4.2, -5.5, -3.1, 9.3, -3.9

The second step is calculate the mean difference  

\bar d= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n d_i}{n}=1.267

The third step would be calculate the standard deviation for the differences, and we got:

s_d =\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (d_i -\bar d)^2}{n-1}} =6.215

The fourth step is calculate the statistic given by :

t=\frac{\bar d -0}{\frac{s_d}{\sqrt{n}}}=\frac{1.267 -0}{\frac{6.215}{\sqrt{6}}}=0.499

The next step is calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

df=n-1=6-1=5

Now we can calculate the p value, since we have a right tailed test the p value is given by:

p_v =P(t_{(5)}>0.499) =0.319

The p value is higher than any significance level given for example \alpha=0.05,0.1, so then we can conclude that we FAIL to reject the null hypothesis. So we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the mean reading is greater for the auscultatory method at 5% or 10% of significance.

jeyben [28]

Answer:

4x-5= 5 less than the product of 4 and a number. 4 (x-5)= The product of 4 and the difference of a number and 5.  4(x+5) ​= The product of 4 and the sum of a number and 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

I took the test online in K12 and when I reviewed it said that those are the correct answer.

How do you solve this
AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

  • domain: all terms are defined for <em>all real numbers</em>
  • solution: x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the equation as a single exponential. After taking the log, the solution becomes obvious.

5^{x-2}-7^{x-3}=7^{x-5}+11\cdot 5^{x-4}\\\\5^{x-2}-11\cdot 5^{x-4}=7^{x-3}+7^{x-5}\\\\5^{x-2}(1-11\cdot 5^{-2})=7^{x-3}(1+7^{-2})\\\\5^{x-2}\dfrac{14}{25}=7^{x-3}\dfrac{50}{49}\\\\1=\dfrac{2\cdot 7^{x-3}5^4}{2\cdot 5^{x-2}7^3}=\left(\dfrac{7}{5}\right)^{x-6}\\\\0=(x-6)\log(1.4)\\\\x=6
