A mean equal to 5 cm. A simple random sample of wrist breadths of 40 women has a mean of 5.07

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic is:

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

Test if the mean is equal to 5:

This means that the null hypothesis is \mu = 5

A simple random sample of wrist breadths of 40 women has a mean of 5.07 cm. The population standard deviation is 0.33 cm.

This means that n = 40, X = 5.07, \sigma = 0.33

Find the value of the test statistic?

z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{5.07 - 5}{\frac{0.33}{\sqrt{40}}}

z = 1.34

The value of the test statistic is z = 1.34

A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you
hram777 [196]

Answer:

We accept H₀ . We don´t have enough evidence to express the publisher claim is not true

Step by Step explanation:

We must evaluate if the mean of the price of college textbooks is different from the value claimed by the publisher

n < 30 then we must use t - distrbution

degree of freedom   n  - 1     df = 22 - 1     df = 21

As the question mentions " different " that means,  a two-tail test

At 0,01 significance level     α  = 0,01       α/2  =  0,005

and t(c)  = 2,831

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                      H₀          μ  =  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis           Hₐ          μ  ≠  μ₀

To calculate t(s)

t(s)  =  (  μ  -  μ₀ ) /σ/√n

t(s)  =  (  433,50 - 385 ) / 86,92 / √22

t(s)  =  2,6171

Comparing   t(c)   and t(s)

t(s) < t(c)

Then  t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to claim that mean price differs from publisher claim

When Sophia runs the 400 meter dash, her finishing times are normally distributed with a mean of 75 seconds and a standard devia
alukav5142 [94]

Answer: 90% of the time.

Step-by-step explanation: This is because you can add the two different times and the standard time of 75 seconds, divide it all by 3 leaving you with 75.2 and that is 0.2 away from the original between those times all together. Take that 0.2 and subtract it from the 1.1 deviation and you’ll get 0.9 times that by 100 and you get it in a percentage; 90%.

What are scientific figures?
Nikolay [14]
Sig Figs, as they are also known, are important only in Science. But there are three ways you can determine how many sig figs there are. Non-Zero digits are sig figs. Any zeros between two sig figs are significant. (EX: 7008) And, lastly, A final zero(s) in a decimal are significant. (EX: 0.76540800) Last two zeros are significant.
