Assume a simple random sample of 10 BMIs with a standard deviation of 1.186 is selected from a normally distributed population o

f recent Miss America winners. Use 0.01 significance level to test the claim that the BMI for recent Miss America winners are from a population with standard deviation of 1.34.
A. Identify the null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis.
B. Find the critical value or values.
C. Find the test statistic.
D. State the conclusion that addresses the original claim.

Answer:

a) H0: \sigma = 1.34

H1: \sigma \neq 1.34

b) df = n-1= 10-1=9

And the critical values with \alpha/2=0.005 on each tail are:

\chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589

c) t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05

d) For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n = 10 sample size

s= 1.186 the sample deviation

\sigma_o =1.34 the value that we want to test

p_v represent the p value for the test

t represent the statistic  (chi square test)

\alpha=0.01 significance level

Part a

On this case we want to test if the true deviation is 1,34 or no, so the system of hypothesis are:

H0: \sigma = 1.34

H1: \sigma \neq 1.34

The statistic is given by:

t=(n-1) [\frac{s}{\sigma_o}]^2

Part b

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df = n-1= 10-1=9

And the critical values with \alpha/2=0.005 on each tail are:

\chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589

Part c

Replacing the info we got:

t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05

Part d

For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34

Answer:

SUMMARY:

x^4+\frac{5}{x^3}-\sqrt{x}+8                               →    Not a Polynomial

-x^5+7x-\frac{1}{2}x^2+9                           →    A Polynomial

x^4+x^3\sqrt{7}+2x^2-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}x+\pi              →    A Polynomial

\left|x\right|^2+4\sqrt{x}-2                                   →    Not a Polynomial

x^3-4x-3                                        →    A Polynomial

\frac{4}{x^2-4x+3}                                              →    Not a Polynomial

Step-by-step explanation:

The algebraic expressions are said to be the polynomials in one variable which consist of terms in the form ax^n.

Here:

n = non-negative integer

a = is a real number (also the the coefficient of the term).

Lets check whether the Algebraic Expression are polynomials or not.

Given the expression

x^4+\frac{5}{x^3}-\sqrt{x}+8

If an algebraic expression contains a radical in it then it isn’t a polynomial. In the given algebraic expression contains \sqrt{x}, so it is not a polynomial.

Also it contains the term \frac{5}{x^3} which can be written as 5x^{-3}, meaning this algebraic expression really has a negative exponent in it which is not allowed. Therefore, the expression x^4+\frac{5}{x^3}-\sqrt{x}+8 is not a polynomial.

Given the expression

-x^5+7x-\frac{1}{2}x^2+9

This algebraic expression is a polynomial. The degree of a polynomial in one variable is considered to be the largest power in the polynomial. Therefore, the algebraic expression is a polynomial is a polynomial with degree 5.

Given the expression

x^4+x^3\sqrt{7}+2x^2-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}x+\pi

in a polynomial with a degree 4. Notice, the coefficient of the term can be in radical. No issue!

Given the expression

\left|x\right|^2+4\sqrt{x}-2

is not a polynomial because algebraic expression contains a radical in it.

Given the expression

x^3-4x-3

a polynomial with a degree 3. As it does not violate any condition as mentioned above.

Given the expression

\frac{4}{x^2-4x+3}

\mathrm{Apply\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \:a^{-b}=\frac{1}{a^b}

Therefore, is not a polynomial because algebraic expression really has a negative exponent in it which is not allowed.

SUMMARY:

x^4+\frac{5}{x^3}-\sqrt{x}+8                               →    Not a Polynomial

-x^5+7x-\frac{1}{2}x^2+9                           →    A Polynomial

x^4+x^3\sqrt{7}+2x^2-\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}x+\pi              →    A Polynomial

\left|x\right|^2+4\sqrt{x}-2                                   →    Not a Polynomial

x^3-4x-3                                        →    A Polynomial

\frac{4}{x^2-4x+3}                                              →    Not a Polynomial
