Find the value of y for the given value of x. y=x2+9;x=−12

2. Carol wants to find how many people in her town own a dog as a pet. She decides to survey

kaheart [24]

This is not a random sample since she is outside of a pet store and the probability of people owning a dog coming out of that store is very very high. If she went around the neighborhood and knocked on people’s door and asked if they had a dog or not would be random sample.

Conduct the appropriate hypothesis test and compute the test statistic. A company that produces fishing line undergoes random te

andre [41]

Answer:

Option D) Yes, because the test statistic is -2.01

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 30 pound

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 29.1 pounds

Sample size, n = 20

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 2 pounds

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 30\text{ pounds}\\H_A: \mu < 30\text{ pounds}$

We use one-tailed(left) t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{29.1 - 30}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{20}} } = -2.012$

Now,

$t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 19 degree of freedom } = -1.729$

Since,

$t_{stat} < t_{critical}$

We fail to accept the null hypothesis and reject it. We accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, there were enough evidence to conclude that the fishing line breaks with an average force of less than 30 pounds.

Option D) Yes, because the test statistic is -2.01
