Answer:

[a,b,c]=[4,2,5] or [a,b,c]=[2,4,5]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\begin{array}{cccccc}{Bedroom} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} \ \\ {Houses} & {7} & {a} & {b} & {c} & {8} \ \end{array}

n = 26

Median = 3.5

Required

Find a, b and c

Median is calculated as:

Median = \frac{n+1}{2}

Median = \frac{26+1}{2}

Median = \frac{27}{2}

Median = 13.5th

This means that the median is the average of the 13th and 14th item.

\begin{array}{cccccc}{Bedroom} & {1} & {2} & {3} & {4} & {5} \ \\ {Houses} & {7} & {a} & {b} & {c} & {8} \ \end{array}

Since the median is Median = 3.5 (average of 3 and 4),

and:

3 \to b \to 13

4 \to c \to 14

This implies that c begins at 14

So, the number of houses bedrooms 4 and 5 is:

c + 8 = 26 - 14 +1

c + 8 = 13

c = 5

Also

7 + a + b + c + 8 = 26 ---- sum of total frequency

a + b + c = 26 - 7 - 8

a + b + c = 11

Substitute c = 5

a + b + 5 = 11

a + b = 11 - 5

a + b = 6

Since a, b and c are different, then

a and b cannot be 5 because c = 5

a and b cannot be 3 because a = b =3

b \ne 0 because b ends at 13

a

So, possible sets are:

[a,b]=[2,4]

[a,b]=[4,2]

Include c, we have:

[a,b,c]=[4,2,5] or [a,b,c]=[2,4,5]

3 lines are shown. A line with points C, A, F intersects a line with points E, A, B at point A. A line extends from point A to p
Verizon [17]

Answer:

m < EAD = 29 degrees

m < CAB = 119 degrees

Given :

The question states that m < CAE = m<FAB = 61 degrees and m<DAF = 90 degrees

Solution:

1. Since line CAF and EAB intersect each other, m<CAF = m< EAF - (opposite vertical angles are equivalent)

2. m<BAC + m<EAC = 180 degrees (sum of linear pair)

3. m<CAB = 180 degrees - m<EAC

4. Equation 1: m<CAB = m<EAF = 119 degrees

5. m<EAF = m<EAD + m< DAF

6. m<EAD = m<EAF - m<DAF

7. m<EAD = 119 degrees-90 degrees = 29 degrees

Hope this helps!!! :)

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 280 engines
DENIUS [597]

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is t = -2.09

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is:

H_{0} = 6.6

The alternate hypotesis is:

H_{1} \neq 6.6

Our test statistic is:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, \sigma is the standard deviation(square roof of the variance) and n is the size of the sample.

In this problem, we have that:

X = 6.5, \mu = 6.6, \sigma = \sqrt{0.64} = 0.8, n = 280

So

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{6.5 - 6.6}{\frac{0.8}{\sqrt{280}}}

t = -2.09

The value of the test statistic is t = -2.09
