Answer:
C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
Explanation:
The following multiple choice responses are provided to complete the question:
A) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because it shows a stronger correlation with a smaller p-value (more significant).
B) The Pearson correlation results should be reported because the two variables are normally distributed.
C) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
D) The Spearman correlation results should be reported because the p-value is closer to 0.0556.
Further Explanation:
A count variable is discrete because it consists of non-negative integers. The number of polyps variable is therefore a count variable and will most likely not be normally distributed. Normality of variables is one of the assumptions required to use Pearson correlation, however, Spearman's correlation does not rest upon an assumption of normality. Therefore, the Spearman correlation would be more appropriate to report because at least one of the variables does not meet the distribution assumption required to use Pearson correlation.
Answer:
Option A
The p-value is less than the significance level of 0.05 chosen and so we reject the null hypothesis H0 and can conclude that the proportion of the subjects who have the necessary qualities is less than 0.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
Normally, in hypothesis testing, the level of statistical significance is often expressed as the so-called p-value. We use p-values to make conclusions in significance testing. More specifically, we compare the p-value to a significance level "α" to make conclusions about our hypotheses.
If the p-value is lower than the significance level we chose, then we reject the null hypotheses H0 in favor of the alternative hypothesis Ha. However, if the p-value is greater than or equal to the significance level, then we fail to reject the null hypothesis H0
though this doesn't mean we accept H0 automatically.
Now, applying this to our question;
The p-value is 0.023 while the significance level is 0.05.
Thus,p-value is less than the significance level of 0.05 chosen and so we reject the null hypothesis H0 and can conclude that the proportion of the subjects who have the necessary qualities is less than 0.2.
The only option that is correct is option A.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the problem is not telling us the height of Silvio, we are going to assume it is not relevant for our calculations.
Let
the altitude of the incoming plane. We know for our problem that the distance between Silvio and the tower is 3 miles, Also we know that the angle of elevation to the plane is 40°. With this information we can create a triangle as shown in the figure. We need a function that relates the angle of elevation with its opposite and adjacent sides, that function is tangent.
We can conclude that we should use the trig function tangent to model this situation; also, we can conclude that the equation that describes this situation is
.
