A national grocery store chain wants to test the difference in the average weight of turkeys sold in Detroit and the average wei

ght of turkeys sold in Charlotte. According to the chain's researcher, a random sample of 20 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Detroit yielded a sample mean of 17.53 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 3.2 pounds. And a random sample of 24 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Charlotte yielded a sample mean of 14.89 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 2.7 pounds. Use a 5% level of significance to determine whether there is a difference in the mean weight of turkeys sold in these two cities. Assume the population variances are approximately the same and use the pooled t-test

Answer:

<em>Calculated value t = 1.3622 < 2.081 at 0.05 level of significance with 42 degrees of freedom</em>

<em>The null hypothesis is accepted . </em>

<em>Assume the population variances are approximately the same</em>

<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>

<u>Explanation</u>:-

Given data a random sample of 20 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Detroit yielded a sample mean of 17.53 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 3.2 pounds

<em>The first sample size  'n₁'= 20</em>

<em>mean of the first sample 'x₁⁻'= 17.53 pounds</em>

<em>standard deviation of first sample  S₁ = 3.2 pounds</em>

Given data a random sample of 24 turkeys sold at the chain's stores in Charlotte yielded a sample mean of 14.89 pounds, with a sample standard deviation of 2.7 pounds

<em>The second sample size  n₂ = 24</em>

<em>mean of the second sample  "x₂⁻"= 14.89 pounds</em>

<em>standard deviation of second sample  S₂ =  2.7 poun</em>ds

<u><em>Null hypothesis</em></u><u>:-</u><u><em>H₀</em></u><em>: The Population Variance are approximately same</em>

<u><em>Alternatively hypothesis</em></u><em>: H₁:The Population Variance are approximately same</em>

<em>Level of significance ∝ =0.05</em>

<em>Degrees of freedom ν = n₁ +n₂ -2 =20+24-2 = 42</em>

<em>Test statistic :-</em>

<em>    </em>t = \frac{x^{-} _{1} -  x_{2} }{\sqrt{S^2(\frac{1}{n_{1} } }+\frac{1}{n_{2} }  }

<em>    where         </em>S^{2}   = \frac{n_{1} S_{1} ^{2}+n_{2}S_{2} ^{2}   }{n_{1} +n_{2} -2}

                      S^{2} = \frac{20X(3.2)^2+24X(2.7)^2}{20+24-2}

<em>              substitute values and we get  S² =  40.988</em>

<em>     </em>t= \frac{17.53-14.89 }{\sqrt{40.988(\frac{1}{20} }+\frac{1}{24}  )}<em></em>

<em>  </em>   t =  1.3622

  Calculated value t = 1.3622

Tabulated value 't' =  2.081

Calculated value t = 1.3622 < 2.081 at 0.05 level of significance with 42 degrees of freedom

<u><em>Conclusion</em></u>:-

<em>The null hypothesis is accepted </em>

<em>Assume the population variances are approximately the same.</em>

The square of Mark's age 3 years ago is 6 times the age he will be in 9 years. What is his age now?
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Age= 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a be for age at the moment

(a-3)^2 =6(a+9)

a^2-6a+9=6a+54

a^2-12a-45

(a-15)(a+3)

a=15 or a=-3

Age cannot be negative (-)

Therefore

Age =15

PLEASE HELP VERY URGENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
diamong [38]

Q1.  Look at the picture.

C.\\y=-\dfrac{1}{3}x+3\\\\y=2x-4

Q2. Look at the picture.

A.\ 4-t

Q3.

Put the value of x = 2 to the equation 3x + y = 5:

3(2)+y=5

6+y=5       <em>subtract 6 from both sides</em>

y=-1\\\\F.\ -1

Q4.

\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}n=3m-11&(*)\\2m+3n=0&(**)\end{array}\right

Substitute (*) to (**):

2m+3(3m-11)=0            <em>use distributive property</em>

2m+(3)(3m)+(3)(-11)=0

2m+9m-33=0       <em>add 33 to both sides</em>

11m=33      <em>divide both sides by 11</em>

m=3

Put the value of m to (*):

n=3(3)-11\\\\n=9-11\\\\n=-2

C. (3,\ -2)

Q5.

w - width

3w - length

24 in - the sum of length and width

The equation:

w+3w=24

4w=24           <em>divide both sides by 4</em>

w=6\ in

3w=3(6)=18\ in

J.\ 18\ inches

Is this right?? please help!
Ganezh [65]

Answer:

  6 < x < 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound inequality in this instance represent the "and" condition, not the "or" condition.* We might solve it like this.

  -47 > 1 -8x > -63 . . . . given

Multiply by -1:

  47 < -1 +8x < 63

Add 1:

  48 < 8x < 64

Divide by 8:

  6 < x < 8

______

* You can tell this is the case by looking at the ends of the given statement:

  -47 > -63 . . . . a true statement, so the solution set will be an intersection, not a union.
