A researcher wants to test if the mean annual salary of all lawyers in a city is different from $110,000. A random sample of 50

lawyers selected from the city reveals a mean annual salary of $ 112000, Assume that σ-$16 100, and that the test is to be made at the 2% significance level What are the critical values of z?
2.33 and 2.33
2.05 and 2.05
-1.645 and 1.645
-1.28 and 1.28
What is the value of the test statistic, z, rounded to three decimal places?

Solution :

This is the two tailed test.

The null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis is as :

Null hypothesis is $H_0:\mu=110000$

Alternate hypothesis is $H_0:\mu \neq110000$

$\overline x = 112000, \ \mu = 110000, \sigma = 16100, n =  50, \alpha = 0.02$

Therefore, the critical value of z is :

$z_{\alpha} = -2.33 \text{ and}\  2.33$

Now the test statics is :

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

$z=\frac{\frac{(112000-110000)}{16100}}{\sqrt {50}}$

$z=0.87$

The test statics is 0.878

We see that it is a right tailed test.

$P(z > 0.878)=1-P(z

$P- \text{value}= \ 2 \times 0.19$

              = 0.3800

Thus , P-value > α

So we fail to reject the null hypothesis.

Zolol [24]

Answer:

$13,082.60 more

Step-by-step explanation:

Melanie:

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^(20)\\ A=9800(1+\frac{.045}{4})^(20)\\A=$12,257.36

Amelia:

A=Pe^(rt)\\A=9800e^(.0475*20)\\A=$25,339.95

Amelia-Melanie= $13,082.60

Which is a correct two column proof. Given &lt;4 and
vladimir1956 [14]

The initial statement is:    QS = SU   (1)

                                    QR = TU    (2)

 

We have to probe that:  RS = ST

 

 

Take the expression (1):                     QS       =   SU

We multiply both sides by R                (QS)R   =   (SU)R

 

 

But    (QS)R = S(QR)     Then:            S(QR)   =   (SU)R     (3)

 

From the expression (2):  QR = TU. Then, substituting it in to expression (3):

 

                                                       S(TU)   =   (SU)R     (4)

 

But  S(TU) = (ST)U  and (SU)R = (RS)U

 

Then, the expression (4) can be re-written as:

 

                                                      (ST)U    =    (RS)U

 

Eliminating U from both sides you have:     (ST) = (RS)    The proof is done.
