Adults in Turkey have mean caloric intake of 3500 calories per day (Wikipedia) with a standard deviation of 500 calories. A samp

le of 25 Ankara University students has an average intake of 3400 calories per day. Is this enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day? Assume the distribution is normal.
A. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
B. What is the value of the test statistic?
C. Specify the rejection region?
D. State the conclusion.

Answer:

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) t = -1

C) the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) Conclusion is that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

Population mean; μ = 3500

Population standard deviation; σ = 500

Sample mean; x¯ = 3400

Sample size; n = 25

We want to find enough evidence to conclude that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

Thus, the hypothesis is defined as;

A) Null hypothesis; H0: μ = 3500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha μ ≠ 3500

B) sample size is less than 30, thus we will use a t-test.

Formula for the test statistic is;

t = (x¯ - μ)/(σ/√n)

t = (3400 - 3500)/(500/√25)

t = -100/(500/5)

t = -1

C) since the sample is small, let's assume a significance level of 0.05.

Thus,the rejection region will be;

p-value < 0.05

D) from online p-value from t-score calculator attached using;

t = - 1; DF = 25 - 1 = 24; significance level = 0.05 and two tailed hypothesis, we have;

p-value ≈ 0.3273

This is greater than the significance value of 0.05.

Thus, we will fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that Ankara U. students average is not 3500 calories per day.

C because if the line Q is 1,5 and 1,8, it would have to be a vertical line, as the X axis doesn’t change. As i know, a vertical line always has a slope of 0, and a horizontal line (which the x-axis is) always has an undefined slope.

What is 2 2/5×2 7/9 in simplest mixed number form?
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

6 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/5 * 2 7/9

Change each number to an improper fraction

2 2/5 = (5*2+2)/5 = 12/5

2 7/9 = (9*2+7) = 25/9

12/5 * 25/9

Rewriting

25/5  * 12/9

5/1 * 4/3

20/3

Now changing to a mixed number

3 goes into 20 6 times with 2 left over

6 2/3

What is the first step to take when solving this linear system of equations by the addition-subtraction method? 2x + 4y = 3 x +
Free_Kalibri [48]

The right answer is Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equations are;

2x+4y=3    Eqn 1

x+3y=13    Eqn 2

When we use subtraction-addition method, we make one of the variables same with opposite signs so that only one variable remains after addition or subtraction.

In the given problem, we will multiply Eqn 2 with "-2" so that the x variables become equal and then we can add both the equations and solve for y.

Therefore,

The first step will be to multiply the second equation by -2 to solve the linear system of equations.

The right answer is Option D.
