A researcher claims that the average body mass index (BMI) of adult Canadians is more than 25.0. He takes a SRS of 250 Canadians

and finds x = 26.3. The p-value for this test is 0.001. What is the best interpretation of this value?

Answer:

The probability of obtaining a result equivalent to or greater than what was the truly observed value of the test statistic is 0.001.

Step-by-step explanation:

The researcher can use a one sample <em>z</em> test to determine whether his claim is correct or not.

The hypothesis to test whether the mean BMI is more than 25.0, is defined as:

<em>H₀</em>: The mean BMI is not more than 25.0, i.e. <em>μ </em>≤ 25.0.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The mean BMI is more than 25.0, i.e. <em>μ </em>> 25.0.

The test statistic is defined as:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}

The <em>p</em>-value of the test is,

<em>p</em> = 0.001.

The p-value is well-defined as per the probability, [under the null-hypothesis (<em>H₀</em>)], of attaining a result equivalent to or greater than what was the truly observed value of the test statistic.

A small p-value (typically ≤ 0.05) specifies sufficient proof against the null hypothesis (<em>H₀</em>), so you discard <em>H₀</em>. A large p-value (> 0.05) specifies fragile proof against the <em>H₀</em>, so you fail to discard <em>H₀.</em>

The <em>p</em>-value of 0.001 indicates that the probability of obtaining a result equivalent to or greater than what was the truly observed value of the test statistic is 0.001.

As the <em>p</em>-value is very small, the null hypothesis will be rejected at any level of significance.

Thus, concluding that the mean BMI of adult Canadians is more than 25.0.

vredina [299]

Answer:

0.41<3.40/x<0.50

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the cost of one pound of bananas is greater than $0.41 and less than $0.50. That is,

If the cost of one banana is P, then, the inequality will be

0.41 < P < 0.50

Sarah pays $3.40 for x pounds of bananas. The inequality that represents the range of possible pounds purchased will be achieved by below

3.40/0.41 = 8.29

3.40/0.50 = 6.8

Therefore, the inequality that represents the range of possible pounds purchased is

6 < x < 9 this is the same as 0.41<3.40/x<0.50

Blank 1: Given

Blank 2 : AD is parallel to BC

Blank 3: <3≅<2

Blank 4: Transitive property of convergence

Blank 5: Definition of Bisect

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to fill in the blanks from the given options.

Blank 1:

ABCD is a parallelogram

This is given

So, blank 1: Given

Blank 2:

A parallelogram have parallel sides i.e in the given parallelogram AD is parallel to BC and AB is parallel to DC

So, Blank 2 : AD is parallel to BC

Blank 3:

We are given <3≅<2

So, Blank 3: <3≅<2

Blank 4:

We know, <1≅<3 and <3≅<2 using transitive property (A≅B and B≅C then A≅C)

So, <1 ≅ <2 is due to transitive property of convergence

Blank 4: Transitive property of convergence

Blank 5:

DC bisects <ADE

A bisect is an line or angle that divides into exactly two parts.

So, Blank 5: Definition of Bisect
