Answer:

The value of test statistics is 25.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given below the SAT reading and writing section scores of a random sample of twenty 11th-grade students in a certain high school;

380, 520, 480, 510, 560, 630, 670, 490, 500, 550, 400, 350, 440, 490, 620, 660, 700, 730, 740, 560

<em>Let </em>\sigma<em> = population standard of the reading and writing section SAT score of the students in this school</em>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \sigma \leq 100     {means that the reading and writing section SAT score of the students in this school is lesser than or equal to 100}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \sigma<em> </em>> 100     {means that the reading and writing section SAT score of the students in this school is higher than 100}

The test statistics that would be used here is <u>One-sample Chi-square</u> test statistics;

                        T.S. =  \frac{(n-1)s^{2} }{\sigma^{2} }  ~ \chi^{2} __n_-_1

where, s^{2} = sample variance =  \frac{\sum (X-\bar X)^{2} }{n-1}  = 13135.8

            n = sample of 11th-grade students = 20

So, <u><em>the test statistics</em></u>  =  \frac{(20-1)\times 13135.8^{2} }{100^{2} }

                                     =  24.96 ≈ 25

Hence, the value of test statistics is 25.

Suppose the scores on a test given to all juniors in a school district are normally distributed with a mean of 74 and a standard
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

\mu -\sigma = 66 , \mu +\sigma = 82

\mu -2\sigma = 58 , \mu +2\sigma = 90

\mu -3\sigma = 50 , \mu +3\sigma = 98

And in the figure attached we see the limits with the percentages associated.

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we know that the random variable of interest is the scores on a test given to all juniors in a school district follows a normal distribution with the following parameters:

X \sim N(\mu= 74, \sigma =8)

For this case we know from the empirical rule that within one deviation from the mean we have approximately 68.2% of the data, within 2 deviations from the mean we have 95% and within 3 deviation 99.7%

We can find the limits and we got:

\mu -\sigma = 66 , \mu +\sigma = 82

\mu -2\sigma = 58 , \mu +2\sigma = 90

\mu -3\sigma = 50 , \mu +3\sigma = 98

And in the figure attached we see the limits with the percentages associated.

Are the given values in the table enough information to show an exponential function instead of a linear function? If not, expla
kodGreya [7K]

I think this a linear function. The graph has a constant flow of going up. In other words, it is linear.
