People tend to evaluate the quality of their lives relative to others around them (Frieswijk et al., 2004). In one study, resear

Hello!

Research.

n=9 frail elderly were interview and compared to a fictitious person who was worse off then the interviewee, a life-satisfaction score was determined for each person.

18, 23, 24, 22, 19, 27, 23, 26, 25

Assuming that the population average score is μ= 20, the researchers think that the elderly in the sample are more or less satisfied than others in the general population.

a. You have the information of one sample, assuming this sample has a normal distribution and each elderly interviewed is independent, then the t-test of choice is a one-sample t-test.

b. and c. If you say that the elderly are "more or less" satisfied than the others, this means that they are either as satisfied as to the general population or not satisfied as to the general population. Symbolically:

H₀: μ = 20

H₁: μ ≠ 20

This is a two-tailed test, meaning, you will have two critical regions.

d.

α: 0.05

Left critical value: $t_{n-1;/\alpha 2} = t_{8; 0.025}= -2.306$

Right critical value: $t_{n-1;1-\alpha /2} = t_{8;0.975} = 2.306$

e.

$t_{H_0}= \frac{X[bar]-Mu}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } } ~t_{n-1}$

X[bar]= 23

S= 3

$t_{H_0}= \frac{23-20}{\frac{3}{\sqrt{9} } }= 3$

f.

Considering that the calculated t-value is greater than the right critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis, so using a significance level of 5% you can conclude that the average life-satisfaction score of the elderly is different than 20.

I hope it helps!

In 1990, the average math SAT score for students at one school was 498. Five years later, a teacher wants to perform a hypothe

mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A. Fail to reject the claim that the average math SAT score is 498 when in fact it is not 498.

Step-by-step explanation:

Type II Error:

A type II error happens when there is a non-rejection of a false null hypothesis.

In this question:

The null hypothesis is H0:μ=498.

Since there is a type II error, there was a failure to reject the claim that the average math SAT score is 498 when in fact it is not 498, and thus, the correct answer is given by option A.

The principal P is borrowed at a simple interest rater for a period of time t. Find the loan's future value A, or the total amou

Andrews [41]

Simple interest formula:
I=PRT

I(interest money created in dollars)
P(initial amount of money)
R(interest rate as a decimal)
T(time in years)

I=7000(.07)(6)
I=$2,940

Therefore, the future value of A is $2,940
