A sample of 64 account balances from a credit company showed an average daily balance of $1,040. The standard deviation of the p

opulation is known to be $200. We are interested in determining if the mean of all account balances (i.e., population mean) is significantly different from $1,000. 1. State the null and alternative hypothesis. 2. Compute the test statistic. 3. Compute the p-value. 4. Based on the p-value and the significance level of 0.05% make a decision regarding the hypotheses. 5. Interpret your results in the context of the problem.

Answer:

See step by step exlanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming normal distribution

N( μ₀ , σ )

In this case N ( 1000, 200)

From a random sample of 64 accounts we get:

n  = 64

x = sample mean      x = 1040

σ = standard deviation of the population     σ = 200

1.-Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis               H₀          x =  μ₀ = 1000

Alternative Hypothesis    Hₐ          x ≠ μ₀    

The alternative hypothesis implies a two tail-test. Given that  n > 30 and σ is known we will use z-table

2.-  z(s) = ( x  - μ₀ ) / σ/√n

z(s) = ( 1040 - 1000 ) / 200/ √64

z(s) = 40*8/200

z(s) = 1,6

3.-P-val for  z (score 1,6)     p-value = 0,0548

4.- If significance level is 0,05  then  α = 0,05  and   α/2 = 0,025

p-value >  α/2        

Then  the z(s) < z(c)      1,6 < 1,96            where  z(c) is z score for α/2

We should accept H₀  

5.-We can claim that at 95 % (of Confidence Interval) the population mean is not significantly  different from 1000 $

The constants, -3 and -8, are like terms

The terms 3p and p are like terms

The terms in the expression are p^2, -3, 3p, -8, p, p^3

The expression contains 6 terms.

Like terms have the same variables raised to the same powers.

Solve by any method from this unit. y2 - 5y = 3 Please help
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

First we combine like terms, so y2 - 5y = - 3y

Now we get - 3y = 3

Then we divide both sides by - 3

Now we get y =-1

A survey of 35 people was conducted to compare their self-reported height to their actual height. The difference between reporte
monitta

Answer:

The test statistic is t = 3.36.

Step-by-step explanation:

You're testing the claim that the mean difference is greater than 0.7.

At the null hypothesis, we test if it is 0.7 or less, that is:

H_0: \mu \leq 0.7

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if it is greater than 0.7, that is:

H_1: \mu > 0.7

The test statistic is:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0.7

Survey of 35 people. From the sample, the mean difference was 0.95, with a standard deviation of 0.44.

This means that n = 35, X = 0.95, s = 0.44

Calculate the test statistic

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{0.95 - 0.7}{\frac{0.44}{\sqrt{35}}}

t = 3.36

The test statistic is t = 3.36.
