a sports statistician claim that the mean winning times for boston marathon women's open division champions is at least 2.68 hou

GenaCL600 [577]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions is at least 2.68 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a sports statistician claim that the mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions is at least 2.68 hours.

The mean winning time of a sample of 30 randomly selected Boston marathon women's open division champions is 2.60 hours. assume the population standard deviation is 0.32 hours.

Let $\mu$ = mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions.

So, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu\geq$ 2.68 hours {means that the mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions is at least 2.68 hours}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : p < 2.68 hours {means that the mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions is less than 2.68 hours}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean winning time = 2.60 hours

$\sigma$ = population standard deviation = 0.32 hours

n = sample of women's open division champions = 30

So, test statistics = $\frac{2.60-2.68}{\frac{0.32}{\sqrt{30} } }$

= -1.37

The value of z test statistics is -1.37.

Now, P-value of the test statistics is given by following formula;

P-value = P(Z < -1.37) = 1 - P(Z $\leq$ 1.37)

= 1 - 0.9147 = 0.0853

Since, P-value of the test statistics is more than the level of significance as 0.0853 > 0.05, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean winning times for Boston marathon women's open division champions is at least 2.68 hours.

What is true about (0, 5)

Answer:

0/5 equals zero as anything divided by zero gives zero. However 5/0 is an undetermined form which gives infinity.

Is an increasing slope a positive slope?

love history [14]

Answer: YESSS A line is increasing if it goes up from left to right. The slope is positive. A line is decreasing if it goes down from left to right.

Step-by-step explanation: The concept of slope is very useful in economics, because it measures the relationship between two variables. A positive slope means that two variables are positively related—that is, when x increases, so does y, and when x decreases, y also decreases.
