days?

Answer:

The overall change is -$7.00.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a price goes down $4.25 than it is a negative integer. Same situation if a price goes down $2.75; it is still a negative integer. These two numbers can be expressed as -$4.25 and -$2.75. Finding the overall change causes for adding. Same signs add and keep different signs subtract. -4.25+-2.75=7.00. Therefore, the overall change in price for the two days is -$7.00.

Question 3 A study was performed to determine whether men and women differ in their repeatability in assembling components on pr

Fed [463]

Answer:

There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that men and women differ in repeatability for this assembly task

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let subscript 1 represent men and 2 represent women, respectively.

$n_1 = 25$

$n_2 = 21$

$s_1 = 0.98$

$s_2 = 1.02$

$\alpha = 0.02$

Required

Determine if here is enough evidence

First, we need to state the hypotheses

$H_o: \sigma_1^2 = \sigma_2^2$

$H_1: \sigma_1^2 \ne \sigma_2^2$

Next, calculate the test statistic using:

$F = \frac{s_1^2}{s_2^2}$

$F = \frac{0.98^2}{1.02^2}$

$F = 0.923$

Calculate the rejection region;

But first, calculate the degrees of freedom

$df_1 =n_1 - 1$

$df_1 =25 - 1$

$df_1 =24$

$df_2 = n_2 -1$

$df_2 = 21 - 1$

$df_2 = 20$

Using the F Distribution: table

$c = \frac{\alpha}{2}$

$c = \frac{0.02}{2}$

$c = 0.01$

At 0.01 level (check row 20 and column 24), the critical value is:

<em></em> $f_{0.01,24,20} = 2.86$ <em> --- the upper bound</em>

At 0.01 level (check row 24 and column 20), the critical value is:

$f_{0.01,20,24} = 2.74$

Calculate the inverse F distribution.

$f_{0.99,20,24} = \frac{1}{f_{0.01,20,24}} = \frac{1}{2.74} =0.365$ ---- the lower bound

The rejection region is then represented as:

$0.365 < Test\ Statistic < 2.86$

If the test statistic falls within this region, then the null hypothesis is rejected

$F = 0.923$ --- Test Statistic

$0.365 < 0.923 < 2.86$

<em>The above inequality is true; so, the null hypothesis is rejected.</em>

<em>This implies that, there is no sufficient evidence.</em>

3. The weights of apples in a shipment from Al's Orchards are normally distributed with a mean of 142 grams and a standard devia

Kamila [148]

The z scores corresponding to the mean weight of a rotten apple relative to the apples from either orchard are, respectively,

$\dfrac{142-156}9\approx-1.56$

$\dfrac{165-156}{13}\approx0.69$

The mean for the standard normal distribution is 0, which means that z scores closer to 0 represent data points that are more likely to occur. Therefore it's reasonable to believe that rotten apples occur more often in shipments from Zippy's.

2x+y=-2. x+y=5. the x coordinate of the solution to the system shown is

lara31 [8.8K]

We have y = -2 - 2x ;
Then, x + ( -2 - 2x ) = 5 ;
x - 2 - 2x = 5;
- x - 2 = 5 ;
-x = 7 ;
x = - 7;
Finally, y = - 2 - 2 × ( - 7 ) ;
y = - 2 + 14 ;
y = 12;
<span>The x coordinate of the solution to the system is - 7 .</span>
