The mean annual premium for automobile insurance in the United States is $1,499. Being from Pennsylvania, you believe automobile

insurance is cheaper there and wish to develop statistical support for your opinion. A sample of 25 automobile insurance policies from the state of Pennsylvania showed a mean annual premium of $1,440 with a standard deviation of s = $150.
a. Develop a hypothesis test that can be used to determine whether the mean annual premium in Pennsylvania is lower than the national mean annual premium.
b. What is a point estimate of the difference between the mean annual premium in Pennsylvania and the national mean (to the nearest dollar)?

Answer:

a) Then, t(s) is in the rejection region. We can not support that the mean annual premium in Pennsylvania is lower than the national mean annual premium

b) The point estimate of the difference is  59 $

Step-by-step explanation:

From sample we get:

sample size    n  =  25

annual mean   x  =  1440

standard deviation of the sample   s  =  150

mean for the mean annual premium    μ  = 1499

Hypothesis Test:

Null Hypothesis                      H₀           x  =   μ

Alternative Hypothesis          Hₐ           x  <   μ

Alternative Hypotesis indicates that the test is a one-tail test to the left

Let´s assume  confidence Interval 95 %    then  α  =  5 %   α = 0.05

As  n < 30 and we assume normality we will make a t-student test

degree of freedom    df  =  n  -  1    df  = 24

With df = 24  and  α = 0.05 and from t-student table we get t(c) =  - 1.711

To calculate t(s) we apply:

t(s)  =  (  x  -  μ ) / s/√n

t(s)  =  ( 1440  -  1499 ) * 5 / 150

t(s)  =  - 59/ 30

t(s)  =  - 1.96

Comparing t(s)  and t(c)  

|t(s)| > |t(c)|

Then, t(s) is in the rejection region. We can not support that the mean annual premium in Pennsylvania is lower than the national mean annual premium.

b) The point estimate for the difference is :   x  - μ  =  59 $

What is the slope of (-6,8) and (-6,2)
SpyIntel [72]

Answer:

Undefined

Step-by-step explanation:

First, slope is change in y over change in x, or rise over run. Plugging these points in (y1-y2)/(x1-x2)=(2-8)/(-6--6), or -6/0. Oh no! You can't divide by 0. Therefore, the slope is undefined.

You can also see this by graphing the line, which is a straight vertical line. Vertical lines have undefined slopes.

Please help ‼️‼️ I’m doing functions
eduard
In this problem, you're looking for the value of t, so that f(t) = 48. That means if you put t into 5t-7, you'll get 48. To do this set up and solve an equation for t by setting 48 equal to 5t-7:
5t-7=48

Isolate the variable by adding 7 to both sides. 
5t=55

Divide by 5 on both sides to find t.
t=11

The answer is 11.

Find area and perimeter​
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

Perimeter

P = P1+P2

P1 = 4a           P2=2(a+b)

P1=4*5           P2=2(3+5)

P1=20            P2=2*8

                     P2=16

P = 20+16

P=36

Area

A=A1+A2

A1=a^{2}                 A2=a*b

A1=5^{2}                 A2=3*5

A1=25                A2=15

A=25+15

A=40
