Janet researcher compares the math placement scores of college applicants who have, or have not taken a special college preparat

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent Variable (IV): Special college preparation program

How will you describe the IV: Independent variable or known as manipulated variable is a variable where the researcher purposely manipulate the variable to see how it affect the results of the experiment.

Dependent variables (DV): Math placement scores of college applicants

How will you measure the DV: DV can be measured by recording the math placement scores of each applicants who have or have not taken the special college preparation program.

Explanation: In this case, the researcher wants to see how taking special college preparation program (IV) can affect the math placement scores of the applicants (DV). Explanation: In this case, the researcher wants to see how taking special college preparation program (IV) can affect the math placement scores of the applicants (DV).

Hypothesis:

If the applicants take the special college preparation program, the applicants will have higher math placement scores compared to the one who have do not take the program.

Someone pls help asap this is due tmrw !! x - 3y = -12 2x + 3y = 3

hram777 [196]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this system of equations we will add them

x-3y=-12

2x+3y=3 now +3y-3y=0

3x=-12+3

3x=-9

x=-3

plug in the first equation

-3-3y=-12

-3y=-12+3

-3y=-9

y=3

The sum of four consecutive even integers is 256. what are the numbers?

Naily [24]

Answer:

61 , 63 , 65 , 67

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the least even number be denoted by x. The sum of the four consecutive even numbers would be:

(x) + (x + 2) + (x + 4) (x + 6) = 256

First, simplify. Combine all like terms:

x + x + x + x + 2 + 4 + 6 = 256

4x + 12 = 256

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS.

First, subtract 12 from both sides of the equation:

4x + 12 (-12) = 256 (-12)

4x = 256 - 12

4x = 144

Next, divide 4 from both sides of the equation:

(4x)/4 = (144)/4

x = 144/4

x = 61

61 is your first number. Find the next 3 consecutive numbers:

x = 61

x + 2 = 63

x + 4 = 65

x + 6 = 67

Check:

61 + 63 + 65 + 67 = 256

256 = 256

Sunspots have been observed for many centuries. Records of sunspots from ancient Persian and Chinese astronomers go back thousan

Lunna [17]

Answer:

(a) Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ $\leq$ 41

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ > 41

(b) The value of z test statistics is 1.08.

(c) We conclude that the mean sunspot activity during the Spanish colonial period was lesser than or equal to 41.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a random sample of 40 such periods from Spanish colonial times, the sample mean is x¯ = 47.0. Previous studies of sunspot activity during this period indicate that σ = 35.

It is thought that for thousands of years, the mean number of sunspots per 4-week period was about µ = 41.

Let $\mu$ = mean sunspot activity during the Spanish colonial period.

(a) Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu$ $\leq$ 41 {means that the mean sunspot activity during the Spanish colonial period was lesser than or equal to 41}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ > 41 {means that the mean sunspot activity during the Spanish colonial period was higher than 41}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z test statistics as we know about the population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ N(0,1)

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean = 47

σ = population standard deviation = 35

n = sample of periods from Spanish colonial times = 40

So, the test statistics = $\frac{47-41}{\frac{35}{\sqrt{40} } }$

= 1.08

(b) The value of z test statistics is 1.08.

(c) Now, the P-value of the test statistics is given by;

P-value = P(Z > 1.08) = 1 - P(Z < 1.08)

= 1 - 0.8599 = 0.1401

Since, the P-value of the test statistics is higher than the level of significance as 0.1401 > 0.05, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean sunspot activity during the Spanish colonial period was lesser than or equal to 41.
