serious [3.7K]

Answer:

the appropriate conclusion is that

The samples provide evidence that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the p-value is small, it indicates statistically significant results. This means that there is a statistically significant difference between the starting salary of chemical engineering and electrical engineering graduates at the University of Texas at Austin for 2013-2014.

The daily dinner bills in a local restaurant are normally distributed with a mean of $28 and a standard deviation of $6. What ar

Degger [83]

Answer:

The minimum value of the bill that is greater than 95% of the bills is $37.87.

Step-by-step explanation:

When the distribution is normal, we use the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 28, \sigma = 6$
