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

The required domain of the inverse function is x ≤ 0. Hence option D is correct.

f(x) = -x^2

<h3>What are functions?</h3>

Functions is the relationship between sets of values. e g y=f(x), for every value of x there is its exists in set of y. x is independent variable while Y is dependent variable.

Inverse of function f(x) = -x^2
y = -x^2
x = √-y
Now,
Inverse function of f(x) is √-x
Its domain is define as less than or equal to zero.

Thus, the required domain of the inverse function is x ≤ 0.

X2 +10x + 21<br> I need to factor the
Ber [7]

Answer:

(x + 7)(x + 3).

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 +10x + 21

21 = 7 * 3 and 10 = 7 +3

so the factors are

(x + 7)(x + 3).

Trinh is serving 112 people cake , 5/8ths are getting chocolate how many people will get carrot ?
Novay_Z [31]
Hey! 

If 112 people are getting cake and 5/8 are getting chocolate, that means the remaining will get chocolate.

8/8 - 5/8 = 3/8

3/8 are getting chocolate. You have to find 3/8 of 112.

3/8 × 112 = 336/8 = 42

42 people are getting carrot cake

The theoretical probability of landing on blue on a single spin of a spinner with 1 purple, 1 blue , 1 red , and 1 orange sectio
erik [133]

Hey there!

\large\boxed{25\%}

Assuming that all the sections are the same size, there are four sections of equal size.

Blue would be one out of those four sections, so the probability is 1/4. In decimal form this is .25, and as a percent this is 25%.

Hope this helps!
