The dean of the engineering school at a technical university wants to emphasize the importance of having students who are gifted

at reading and writing as well as math. She wants to know if she can accurately claim that graduate students in engineering programs at her school have significantly higher scores on the verbal reasoning section of the GRE (a standardized test used in the admissions process for many graduate programs) than the national average for engineering students. The national average for the verbal reasoning GRE score for engineering students was 150 with a standard deviation of 9. A random sample of 49 engineering graduate students at her school were found to have an average verbal reasoning GRE score of 153. After analyzing the data to determine whether the mean verbal reasoning GRE score of the engineering graduate students at the technical university is higher than the national average, the p-value of 0.0099 was obtained. Using a 0.05 significance level, what conclusion can be drawn from the data?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis: Mean verbal reasoning GRE score of the engineering graduate students at the technical university is less than or equal to the national average: u ≤ 150

The alternative hypothesis: Mean verbal reasoning GRE score of the engineering graduate students at the technical university is greater than the national average: u > 150

Since the p-value of 0.0099 was gotten which is less than the significance level of 0.05, we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that actually there is a statistically significant evidence to prove that the mean verbal reasoning GRE score of the engineering graduate students at the technical university is greater than the national average

Find the surface area of the right prism. Round to the nearest whole number.
andriy [413]

Answer:

\large\boxed{S.A.=96\ cm^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

We have:

(1) two trapezoids with bases b₁ = 7cm and b₂ = 5cm and the height h = 4cm

(2) three rectangles 3 cm × 7 cm, 3 cm × 4 cm and 3 cm × 5 cm.

The formula of an area of a trapezoid:

A=\dfrac{b_1+b_2}{2}\cdot h

Substitute:

A=\dfrac{7+5}{2}\cdot4=24\ cm^2

Calculate the areas of the rectangles:

A_1=(3)(7)=21\ cm^2\\\\A_2=(3)(4)=12\ cm^2\\\\A_3=(3)(5)=15\ cm^2

The Surface Area:

S.A.=(2)(24)+21+12+15=96\ cm^2

A distribution is given as
Arada [10]

If <em>X</em> is uniformly distributed on the interval (0, 12), then its PDF is

f_X(x) = \begin{cases}\frac1{12} & \text{if }0 < x < 12 \\ 0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

or simply

f_X(x) = \dfrac1{12} \text{ where } 0 < x < 12

and the zero-elsewhere case is assumed.

Whether you include 0 and 12 in the domain is irrelevant, since the probability that <em>X</em> = 0 or <em>X</em> = 12 are both zero.

Hey can you please help me posted picture of question
zimovet [89]
The parabola opens towards left, this means the squared term is y with negative coefficient.

The vertex is given to be the point (-1,-3). So, the general equation of the parabola will be like:

x=-a(y+1)^{2}-3

where a is any constant.

In the given options, only 1 such equation is available and that is option C.

So the answer to this question is option C

I HAVE A MATH TEST PLZ HELP I'M GIVING OUT 50 POINTS PLZ<br><br> S.O.S I HAVE MATH
Nady [450]

Answer:

<em>Graph included as picture</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, plot the given points on the graph

Draw a line through them.

Now select two of those values and we'll find the rate of change.

We'll be using (1,-1) and (3,3)

To find rate of change we will be using the formula: \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

y_{2} = 3\\y_{1} =-1\\x_{2} = 3\\x_{1} = 1

\frac{3-(-1)}{3-1} = \frac{4}{2} = 2

So the rate of change is 2

You will use this rate of change for your other function because they both have the same rate of change

Since we have the rate of change, we can create the slope intercept form formula: y = mx +b

Just substitute for the variables we know

m = rate of change/slope = 2

b = y-intercept = -3

y = 2x + -3

<em>[If you connected all the points in your graph, that's how you found the y-intercept]</em>

Now we have to create the formula for the second function.

We know it will have that same slope of 2

so we have y = 2x + b

To solve for b we can plug in the values we do have which would be (x,y) of (3,6)

6 = 2(3) + b

Now solve

6 = 6 + b

6 (-6) = 6 (-6) + b

0 = b

b = 0

This mean that the y-intercept will be on (0,0)

Plot that point

Now we finish the formula

y = 2x + 0

Connect the dots, make sure the line continues on both of them past the dots and now you have your graph!

I've included a picture of the graph for your reference. I hope this helps, don't be afraid to reach out with further questions!
