The mean work week for engineers in start-up companies is claimed to be about 64 hours with a standard deviation of 8 hours. Kar

a, a newly hired engineer hopes that it's not (she wants it to be shorter). She asks 10 engineers in start-ups for the lengths of their mean work weeks. Their responses are 70; 45; 55; 60; 65; 55; 55; 60; 50; 55.
1. Is the newly hired engineer testing a mean or a proportion?
a. proportion.
b. mean.
2. The null hypothesis (or company claim), in symbols, is mu =___.
3. If the claim is correct, what is the probability that a sample mean would be as low as Kara's mean?
4. If Kara will accept the 60 hours as the real average so long as there's at least a 10% chance the sample average value could be as low as hers, should she accept the claim?
a. yes.
b. no.

Answer:

1.) mean

2.) H0 : μ = 64

3.) 0.0028

4) Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis ; H0 : μ = 64

Alternative hypothesis ; H1 : μ < 64

From the data Given :

70; 45; 55; 60; 65; 55; 55; 60; 50; 55

Using calculator :

Xbar = 57

Sample size, n = 10

Standard deviation, s = 7.14

Test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)

(57 - 64) ÷ 8 / sqrt(10)

Test statistic = - 2.77

Pvalue = (Z < - 2.77) = 0.0028 ( Z probability calculator)

α = 10% = 0.1

Reject H0 ; if P < α

Here,

P < α ; Hence, we reject the null

Given f(x) and g(x) = f(x + k), use the graph to determine the value of k.
dedylja [7]

g(x) is basically transformed f(x). First, let's focus on f(x) graph. Notice how the graph has slope of 1 and intersect y-axis at (0,0).

Which means that our equation for f(x) is:

\large{f(x) = x}

Now then we focus on g(x). g(x) is f(x+k). That means if f(x) = x then f(x+k) would mean substitute x = x+k in the equation.

\large{f(x + k) = x + k }\\  \large{g(x) = x + k}

Next, we want to find the value of k. In the slope-intercept form or y = mx+b where m = slope and b = y-intercept. Notice the g(x) graph and see that the graph intersects y-axis at (0,4). Therefore k = y-intercept = 4.

\large{g(x) = x + 4}

Answer

  • g(x) = x+4
  • Therefore the value of k is 4.

Here are the first five terms of Fibonacci sequence.
Pepsi [2]

Answer:

a- 32,52

b-20+32=52

Step-by-step explanation:

I think there is only one 4

as following 4,8,12,20

4+8=12

8+12=20

20+12=32

20+32=52

52+32=84

84+52=136

136+84=220

136+220=356

so 4,8,12,20,32,52,84,136,220,356

How do you use subtraction to find a missing addend in an addition problem? Explain
Kaylis [27]
You basically just get a equation that needs to be answered and grab the answer and minus it by one of the two digits in front. Example: 3+2=5 is equal to 5-2=3
