It is suspected that calcium in blood platelets may be related to blood pressure. As part of a study of this relationship, resea

rchers recruited 30 subjects whose blood pressure was normal (i.e., not abnormally elevated). For each subject two measurements were made: pressure (average of systolic and diastolic measurements) and calcium concentration in the blood platelets. The sample size is n = 30, and the sample correlation is r = 0.4. Is there evidence that blood pressure and platelet calcium are linearly related? State the hypothesis and test it at 5% level of significance. What is your conclusion?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and the alternative hypothesis are:

\mathbf{ H_o: \rho = 0} \\  \\ \mathbf{H_1: \rho \ne 0}

The test statistics is as follows:

t =  \dfrac{r\sqrt{n-2} }{\sqrt{1-r^2}}

t =  \dfrac{0.4 \sqrt{30-2} }{\sqrt{1-0.4^2}}

t =  \dfrac{0.4 \sqrt{28} }{\sqrt{0.84}}

t = 2.3094

The critical value

t_{\alpha/df} =  t_\ \{0.05/2 \  , \  30-2 \} }  \\ \\  = t_{0.025,28} = \pm 2.048 ( from \ the \ t-tables)

Decision rule:

To reject H_o if t > t_{\alpha/df}.

So since t > t_{\alpha/df}. we reject H_o at ∝ = 0.05

Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence to conclude that blood pressure and patient calcium are linearly related.

Please help me solve this!!!!!!
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

C. 9

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -4x^2 + 2kx

subtitute 3:

y = -4(9)^2 + 2k(9)

y = -4(81) + 18k

let y = 0

=> 0 = -324 + 18k

=> k = 324/18 = 9

this is my calculations hope it helps

What is the product 4n/4n-4 n-1/n+1
olga_2 [115]
4n/4n-4 × n-1/n+1
= 4n(n-1)/(4n-4)(n+1)
= (4n^2 - 4n)/(4n^2 + 4n - 4n-4)
= (4n^2 - 4n)/(4n^2 - 4)
= 4(n^2 - n)/4(n^2 - 1)
=(n^2 - n)/(n^2 - 1)

Y-1=0 is what form:<br> Standard<br> Point-Slope Form<br> Brainliest for first Answer
hammer [34]

This would be point-slope form.

Slope-intercept form is in the form: y = mx + b

Standard is in the form ax + by = c

Point-slope form is in the form y - y.1 =m(x - x.1)

The form this most closely resembles is point-slope.
