Suppose that a recent article stated that the mean time spent in jail by a first-time convicted burglar is 2.5 years. A study wa
4vir4ik [10]

Using the z-distribution, it is found that since the <u>test statistic is greater than the critical value</u>, it can be concluded that the mean length of jail time has increased.

At the null hypothesis, it is <u>tested if the mean length of jail time is still of 2.5 years</u>, that is:

H_0: \mu = 2.5

At the alternative hypothesis, it is <u>tested if it has increased</u>, that is:

H_1: \mu > 2.5

We have the <u>standard deviation for the population</u>, thus, the z-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

The parameters are:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
  • \sigma is the standard deviation of the sample.
  • n is the sample size.

For this problem, the values of the <u>parameters</u> are: \overline{x} = 3, \mu = 2.5, \sigma = 1.5, n = 26

Hence, the value of the <u>test statistic</u> is:

z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z = \frac{3 - 2.5}{\frac{1.5}{\sqrt{26}}}

z = 1.7

The critical value for a <u>right-tailed test</u>, as we are testing if the mean is greater than a value, with a <u>significance level of 0.05</u>, is of z^{\ast} = 1.645

Since the <u>test statistic is greater than the critical value</u>, it can be concluded that the mean length of jail time has increased.

Determine whether the random variable is discrete or continuous. a. The number of statistics students now reading a book. b. The
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Continuous random variables: c and e

Discrete random variables: a, b, d  

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to identify whether the random variable is discrete or continuous.

  • A discrete variable is a variable whose value is obtained by counting.
  • A continuous random variable X takes all values in a given interval of numbers.
  • Thus, a continuous variable can have values in decimals but a discrete random variable cannot take values in decimals.

a. The number of statistics students now reading a book.

Discrete random variable since number of students cannot take decimal values.

b. The number of textbook authors now sitting at a computer.

Discrete random variable since number of textbooks cannot be expressed in decimals but counted.

c. The exact time it takes to evaluate 27 plus 72.

It is a continuous random variable as it may take all values within an interval of time.

d. The number of free dash throw attempts before the first shot is made.

It is a discrete random variable since the number of throws can always be whole number.

e. The time it takes to fly from City Upper A to City Upper B.

Time is a continuous random variable.

A spinner is separated into 4 equal pieces, as shown below:
kakasveta [241]

Getting black is 1/4 of the percentage, and spinning it 10 times gives us 10/40, because there are 40 possible colors to land on when u spin it 10 times. The last spin, is just like any other time you spin it. just because it's the last spin, doesn't make the black sector greater. So the answer is 1/4 or 25%.
