The General Social Survey asked a large number of people how much time they spent watching TV each day. The mean number of hours

was 2.98 with a standard deviation of 2.66. Assume that in a sample of 40 teenagers, the sample standard deviation of daily TV time is 1.9 hours, and that the population of TV watching times is normally distributed. Can you conclude that the population standard deviation of TV watching times for teenagers is less than 2.66

Answer:

Yes, we can conclude that the population standard deviation of TV watching times for teenagers is less than 2.66

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : σ² = 2.66²

H1 : σ² < 2.66²

X²c = (n - 1)*s² ÷ σ²

sample size, n = 40

Sample standard deviation, s = 1.9

X²c = ((40 - 1) * 1.9²) ÷ 2.66²

X²c = 140.79 ÷ 7.0756

X²c = 19.897

Using a confidence level of 95%

Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; df = 40 - 1 = 39

The critical value using the chi distribution table is 25.6954

Comparing the test statistic with the critical value :

19.897 < 25.6954

Test statistic < Critical value ; Reject the Null

Hence, we can conclude that the population standard deviation of TV watching times for teenagers is less than 2.66

I need help that is simple enough explnation
velikii [3]

Answer:

7 in both boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

In the picture, it shows

4 (x - 3) = 20

and then it shows

4 (x) - 4 (3) = 20

so practically you separate the x and 3 and put them in parentheses and then put a 4 next to both of them.

It should be the same as your question.

7 x (8 - 3)

and then separate 8 and 3 and put a 7 next to both of them.

( 7 x 8) - ( 7 x 3)

Hope it helps and have a great day! =D

All the pupils at a primary school come from one of three villages: Elmswell, Haughley or Woolpit. 1/4 of the pupils come from E
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

<em>680</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

All the pupils at a primary school come from one of three villages: Elmswell, Haughley or Woolpit.

\frac{1}{4} of the pupils come from Elmswell

\frac{3}{5} of the pupils come from Haughley

102 pupils come from Woolpit.

To find:

Total number of pupils in the school.

Solution:

Let total number of pupils = 100x

So, number of pupils that come from Elmswell = \frac{1}{4} of 100x

OR

\dfrac{1}{4} \times 100x\\\Rightarrow 25x

And, number of pupils that come from Haughley= \frac{3}{5} of 100x

OR

\dfrac{3}{5} \times 100x\\\Rightarrow 60x

Number of pupils that come from Woolpit = 100x - 25x - 60x \Rightarrow 15x

As per given statement:

15x = 102\\\Rightarrow x =6.8

Number of pupils from Elmswell = 25x = 25 \times 6.8 = 170

Number of pupils from Haughley = 60x = 60 \times 6.8 = 408

Total number of pupils at the school = 100x \Rightarrow 100 \times 6.8=680
