Many airline companies have begun implementing fees for checked bags. Economic theory predicts that passengers will respond to t

he increase in the price of a checked bag by substituting carry-on bags for checked bags. As a result, the mean weight of a passenger's carry-on items is expected to increase after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.
Suppose that a particular airline's passengers had a mean weight for their carry-on items of 16 pounds, the FAA standard average weight, before the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

The airline conducts a hypothesis test to determine whether the current mean weight of its passengers' carry-on items is more than 16 pounds. It selects a random sample of 67 passengers and weighs their carry-on items. The sample mean is x = 17.1 pounds, and the sample standard deviation is
s = 6.0pounds. The airline uses a significance level of α =.05 to conduct its hypothesis test.

a. The hypothesis test is _____ test.

- The test statistic follows a _____ distribution. The value of the test statistic is_____.

b. Use the relevant statistical Distributions table to develop the critical value rejection rule.

According to the critical value approach, the rejection rule is:

A. Reject H0 if t ≤ − 1.997 or t ≥ 1.997
B. Reject H0 if z ≥ 1.645
C. Reject H0 if t ≥ 1.668
D. Reject H0 if t ≤ −1.668

c. The p-value is_____.

d. Using the critical value approach, the null hypothesis is _____, because _____ Using the p-value approach, the null hypothesis is_____, because_____ Therefore, you _____ conclude that the mean weight of the airline's passengers' carry-on items has increased after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The hypothesis test is  one tailed_____ test.

(Because we check whether sample weight is greater than hence one tailed or right tailed)

The test statistic follows a __t___ distribution.(Because only sample std deviation s is known)

The value of the test statistic is___Mean difference/Std error =\frac{17.1-16}{\frac{6}{\sqrt{67} } } \\=1.58__

b. df = 66

Reject H0 if t ≥ 1.668

c. The p-value is_____0.059444

d. Using the critical value approach, the null hypothesis is _accepted____, because __t <1.668___ Using the p-value approach, the null hypothesis is__accepted___, because__p value <0.05 our significance level.___ Therefore, you __may___ conclude that the mean weight of the airline's passengers' carry-on items has increased after the implementation of the checked-bag fee.

Step-by-step explanation:

s=(4+6t)3/2

t=2s

t is seconds

s is meters

s=(4+6×2)3/2

=(4+12)3/2

=16×3/2

Acellus help slope intercept
Serjik [45]

Greetings.

The answer is y = 2x + 7.

Explanation:

If you are an expert in graph then you are able to find the slope without calculating. (Rise over Run by looking at the graph.)

We can also find the slope by calculating m-value.

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}   ---> Rise Over Run

<em>But how are we gonna calculate if we don't have any two given ordered pairs?</em>

The answer is, we can just pick two ordered pairs that are part of the graph, or rather say that the graph passes through.

The graph passes through (-3,1) and (-2,3).

Then we can calculate the slope by using rise/run.

m=\frac{3-1}{-2-(-3)}\\m=\frac{2}{-2+3}\\m=\frac{2}{1}\\m=2

Thus, the slope is m = 2.

However, we are not done yet. We just only found out the slope. We need to find the y-intercept too.

From Linear Function - y=mx+b

Where m = slope and b = y-intercept.

Since b = y-intercept, we don't need to calculate/substitute x = 0. We simply find which number the graph has y-intercept at.

Which is (0,7), the y-intercept.

Then we substitute b = 7 as y-intercept.

Thus the answer is y=2x+7

Describe different ways in which a plane might the cylinder,and the cross section the results.
Mademuasel [1]
The plane could be:
-perpendicular to the axis --> gives a circle
-parallel to the axis and tangent to the cylinder --> gives a line
-parallel to the axis and not tangent to the cylinder --> gives a pair of parallel lines
-neither perpendicular nor parallel to the axis --> gives an ellipse
