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

Solve each prportion. (2/y-4)=(y+3/4)
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

y = 5, -4

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve proportions you cross-multiply.

\frac{2}{y-4} =\frac{y+3}{4} \rightarrow 2\times4 = (y-4)\times(y+3) \rightarrow 8=y^2-y-12

Now that we have 8 = y^2 - y - 12, we must make the entire trinomial equal to 0 by subtracting 8 from both sides.

y^2 - y - 20 = 0

Factor the trinomial.

(y - 5)(y + 4) = 0

Make both factors equal to 0 to solve for both values of y.

  • y - 5 = 0 --> y = 5
  • y + 4 = 0 --> y = -4

y = 5, -4

1. This composite figure is created by placing a sector of a circle on a rectangle. What is the area of this composite figure? S
White raven [17]

Answer:

29.92 m² (nearest hundredth)

Step-by-step explanation:

\textsf{Area of a sector}=\dfrac{\theta}{360\textdegree}\pi r^2

\implies \textsf{area}=\dfrac{30}{360\textdegree}\pi \cdot 5.5^2=\dfrac{121}{48}\pi \textsf{  m}^2

Area of rectangle = width × length

⇒ area = 4 × 5.5 = 22 m²

Total area = area of sector + area of rectangle

⇒ total area = \dfrac{121}{48}\pi +22 = 29.91943148... = 29.92 m² (nearest hundredth)
