Sloan the sloth crawls at 100 meters per hour when crawling uphill, 120 meters per hour when crawling across flat ground, and 15

0 meters per hour when crawling downhill. One day, Sloan crawls across the forest floor from a tree stump to a spring, and then takes the same route in reverse to return to the tree stump. What was Sloan's average speed during the entire round trip?

Answer:

  120 m/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The time taken to travel a distance d uphill will be ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = d/100

On the return trip, the same distance will be downhill, so the time will be ...

  time = d/150

The average speed on hills is then ...

  speed = distance/time = (2d)/(d/100 +d/150) = 2(100)(150)/(100 +150)

  speed = 120 . . . . m/h

This is the same as the speed on flat ground. So, the average speed on flat ground is the same as the average speed on hills. That will be Sloan's average speed over any terrain.

Sloan's average speed was 120 m/h.

The chi-square test for goodness of fit is inappropriate because the variable under study is not categorical.

<h3>How to determine the reason chi square is not appropriate?</h3>

The dataset is given as:

Monday        34

Tuesday       29

Wednesday   32

Thursday        28

Friday             19

The variable of the above dataset is a not a categorical dataset.

One of the conditions of the chi-square test for goodness of fit test is that the variable under study must be categorical.
