Need help to understand how to calculate problems.

The population of current statistics students has ages with mean mu and standard deviation sigma. samples of statistics students

hram777 [196]

Answer: The central limit theorem tells us that when random samples are chosen the results tend to approach a normal distribution.

The basic idea is that the more random samples that you select, the closer you should get to the mean. In most cases, 30 or more samples is regarded as a large enough sample to get close to the mean. Our sample is 48, so we should be close to the mean.

Assume a simple random sample of 10 BMIs with a standard deviation of 1.186 is selected from a normally distributed population o

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

a) H0: $\sigma = 1.34$

H1: $\sigma \neq 1.34$

b) $df = n-1= 10-1=9$

And the critical values with $\alpha/2=0.005$ on each tail are:

$\chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589$

c) $t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05$

d) For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

n = 10 sample size

s= 1.186 the sample deviation

$\sigma_o =1.34$ the value that we want to test

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test

t represent the statistic (chi square test)

$\alpha=0.01$ significance level

Part a

On this case we want to test if the true deviation is 1,34 or no, so the system of hypothesis are:

H0: $\sigma = 1.34$

H1: $\sigma \neq 1.34$

The statistic is given by:

$t=(n-1) [\frac{s}{\sigma_o}]^2$

Part b

The degrees of freedom are given by:

$df = n-1= 10-1=9$

And the critical values with $\alpha/2=0.005$ on each tail are:

$\chi_{\alpha/2}= 1.735, \chi_{1-\alpha/2}= 23.589$

Part c

Replacing the info we got:

$t=(10-1) [\frac{1.186}{1.34}]^2 =7.05$

Part d

For this case since the critical value is not higher or lower than the critical values we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true deviation is not significantly different from 1.34

How is 4/16 eqaul to 0.25 plaessseeee help

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Okay! 4/16= 0.25 because 16/16 = 1 and so that means 12/16 = 0.75 and 8/16 = 0.50 and 4/16 = 0.25 Hope this helped!
