Two different weight loss programs are being compared to determine their effectiveness. Ten men were assigned to each program (t

hat is, a total of 20 men altogether). Their weight losses (in lbs), after a period of time, are recorded below. We are interested in determining which, if any, of the diets is more effective in terms of average weight loss. Assume weight loss for each diet to be normally distributed.
Diet 1 3.4 10.9 2.8 7.8 0.9 5.2 2.5 10.5 7.1 7.5
Diet 2 11.9 13.1 11.6 6.8 6.8 8.8 12.5 8.6 17.5 10.3
Carry out an appropriate test using a significance level of 0.10.

Answer:

WE reject the Null and conclude that one of the drug is more effective than the other.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Diet 1 3.4 10.9 2.8 7.8 0.9 5.2 2.5 10.5 7.1 7.5

Diet 2 11.9 13.1 11.6 6.8 6.8 8.8 12.5 8.6 17.5 10.3

This is a matched pair sample :

The hypothesis :

H0 : μd = 0

H1 : μd ≠ 0

Hence, we intun the difference between the two groups of value :

Difference, d = -8.9,-2.2,-8.8,1,-5.9,-3.6,-10,1.9,-10.4,-2.8

The test statistic :

dbar ÷ (Sd/√n)

dbar = mean of difference = Σd / n = - 49.7 / 10 = - 4.97

Standard deviation of difference, Sd = 4.51

Test statistic :

-4.97 ÷ (4.51/√10)

Test statistic = - 3.485

The sample size, n = 10

df = n - 1 ; 10 - 1 = 9

Critical value (0.10, 9) = 1.833

If Test statistic > |Critical value |

Since 3.486 > 1.833 ; WE reject the Null and conclude that one of the drug is more effective than the other

If f(x) = 2x - 9, which of the following are correct? Select all that apply. f(-1) = -11 f(2) = 5 f(3) = -3 f(0) = -9 f(-3) = 15
Yuri [45]

f(-1) = -11 and f(3) = -3 . these functions are true .

What does a math function mean?

  • A relationship between a group of inputs and one output each is referred to as a function.
  •  A function is an association between inputs in which each input is connected to precisely one output.
  • A domain, codomain, or range exists for every function. f(x), where x is the input, is a common way to refer to a function.
  • In mathematics, a function is an expression, rule, or law that establishes the relationship between two variables (the dependent variable).

given function  f(x) = 2x - 9

   f(-1) = -11 ⇒ x = -1 put in function

                       f( -1 ) = 2 * -1 - 9  ⇒ - 11

    f(2) = 5   ⇒ x = 2 put in function

                    f( 2 ) = 2 * 5 - 9 = 1

    f(3) = -3  ⇒  x = 3 put in function

                     f ( 3 ) = 2 * 3 - 9 = -3

       f(-3) = 15   ⇒  x =  -3 put in function

                     f( -3) = 2 * -3 - 9 = - 15
