Answer:

negative 2, negative 4.5

Step-by-step explanation

when doing this, you want to figure out (X,Y). X is sideways and Y is up and down. Any number to the left of 0 will be negative, so if you are finding X and you move 2 spaces to the left from 0, you will be at -2. So you found X. Then is says it is 4.5 spaces down. Anything down is also negative. So you would start at -2 since the is where X is. Then move down 4.5 and you will be at -4.5. So -4.5 is what Y is. now you can fill in (X,Y). You will get (-2,-4.5). I hope this helped a bit.

The first term of a geometric sequence is equal to a and the common ratio of the sequence is r.

ololo11 [35]

Answer: (a) {a, ar, ar², ar³, ar⁴, ar⁵...}, (b) arⁿ⁻¹

For part (a), the question gives us the first term a, and then asks us to apply the common ratio r six times.

In order for ar = a, the nth term of r will have to equal 0 (this implies that n is an exponent; thus giving us the first term a, as r = 1).

Since we use this method on the first term, we must use it for the next five, in which r gains an additional exponent for every consecutive value (nth term) thereafter.

Ultimately getting: {a, ar, ar², ar³, ar⁴, ar⁵...}

For part (b), we first have to understand that the sequence does not start at 0, but at 1 for n. In order for ar = a, with n = 1, there needs to be subtraction of -1 within the exponent. So that arⁿ⁻¹

If we check and apply this, we can see that:

{ar¹⁻¹, ar²⁻¹, ar³⁻¹, ar⁴⁻¹, ar⁵⁻¹, ar⁶⁻¹...} = {a, ar, ar², ar³, ar⁴, ar⁵...} = arⁿ⁻¹ = Tn

The mean throwing distance of a football for a Marco, a high school freshman quarterback, is 40 yards, with a standard deviation

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

a) One-tailed t-test about a mean.

b) The null hypothesis would be that there is no significant evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball.

While the alternative hypothesis is that there is significant evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball.

Mathematically,

The null hypothesis is represented as

H₀: μ ≤ 40 yards

The alternative hypothesis is given as

Hₐ: μ > 40 yards

c) p-value = 0.00621

d) The graph is presented in the attached image. The p-value obtained is less than the significance level at which the test was performed, hence, we accept the alternative hypothesis and say that there is significant evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) This test checks if the adjusted grip leads to more distance than before on the ball throws.

So, it is a one tailed test (testing only in one direction), a t-test about a mean.

b) For hypothesis testing, the first thing to define is the null and alternative hypothesis.

The null hypothesis plays the devil's advocate and usually takes the form of the opposite of the theory to be tested. It usually contains the signs =, ≤ and ≥ depending on the directions of the test.

While, the alternative hypothesis usually confirms the the theory being tested by the experimental setup. It usually contains the signs ≠, < and > depending on the directions of the test.

Since this question aims to test if adjusting the grip leads to more distance on the ball thrown.

The null hypothesis would be that there is no significant evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball. That is, The adjusted grip leads to a distance lesser than or equal to the previous distance on the thrown ball.

While the alternative hypothesis is that there is significant evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball.

Mathematically,

The null hypothesis is represented as

H₀: μ ≤ 40 yards

The alternative hypothesis is given as

Hₐ: μ > 40 yards

c) To do this test, we will use the z-distribution because there is information on the population standard deviation.

So, we compute the test statistic

z = (x - μ₀)/σ

x = 45 yards

μ₀ = 40 yards

σ = standard deviation = 2 yards

z = (45 - 40)/2 = 2.50

The p-value for a one-tailed test for z-test statistic of 2.50 is 0.00621

d) The sketch of the graph is presented in the attached image.

The interpretation of p-values is that

When the (p-value > significance level), we fail to reject the null hypothesis and when the (p-value < significance level), we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, for this question, significance level = 0.05

p-value = 0.00621

0.00621 < 0.05

Hence,

p-value < significance level

This means that we reject the null hypothesis & accept the alternative hypothesis and say that there is enough evidence to conclude that the adjusted grip leads to more distance on the thrown ball.

Hope this Helps!!!
