A survey was conducted to determine whether hours of sleep per night are independent of age. A sample of individuals was asked t

o indicate the number of hours of sleep per night with categorical options: fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more. Later in the survey, the individuals were asked to indicate their age with categorical options: age 39 or younger and age 40 or older. Sample data follow.
Age Group
Hours of Sleep 39 or younger 40 or older
Fewer than 6 38 36
6 to 6.9 61 58
7 to 7.9 76 74
8 or more 65 92
(a) Conduct a test of independence to determine whether hours of sleep are independent of age.
(b) What is your estimate of the percentages of individuals who sleep fewer than 6 hours, 6 to 6.9 hours, 7 to 7.9 hours, and 8 hours or more per night?

Answer:

Sleep hours per night is independent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data:

Hours of Sleep 39 or younger 40 or older

> 6 _____38 36

6 to 6.9 _ 61 58

7 to 7.9 __76 74

8 or more 65 92

The Chisquare statistic is to be used to perform the analysis :

The hypothesis :

H0: Sleep hours per night is independent

H1: Sleep hours per night is not independent

χ² = (observed - Expected)² / Expected

To save computation time. We could use a Chisquare calculator to perform the analysis :

The test statistic = 4.0061

The degree of freedom = (row - 1) * (column - 1)

Degree of freedom = (4-1)*(2-1) = 3*1 = 3

The Pvalue = 0.261

Since, Pvalue > α ; We fail to reject the H0 ;and conclude that sleep hours per night is independent.

______________total ___%

> 6 _____38 36__ 74 __ 14.8

6 to 6.9 _ 61 58 __ 119 __23.8

7 to 7.9 __76 74___150__30

8 or more 65 92___157__31.4

_______240 _260__500_100

It costs Edgar $2.65 one way to ride the bus to work. He uses the bus to go to and from work fourdays per week. He buys a bottle
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Ambitious

In this case, you have to multiply the price of the one way journey ($2.65) by 8 (as this is the number of individual journeys made in one week. It's gives you $21.20. As he has 1 bottle of water at $1.45 each day for four days, you have to multiply these together, giving you $5.80 You then have to add together $21.20 and $5.80, giving you $27. Therefore, it costs Edgar $27 a week

What is the function of this graph?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

x=y^2-2

Step-by-step explanation:

This graph, is a parabola that opens to the right.

To answer this question, we just use the vertex form of a sideways parabola- x=a(y-k)^2+h.

In this case, the vertex is (-2, 0), and our value of a is 1, since it opens to the right.

This gives us: x=1(y-0)^2+(-2)

Which simplifies to: x=y^2-2.

Also, the answer to the previous two questions are wrong.

The D value (Domain) is actually [2, ∞)

The R value (Range) is actually "All real numbers" (-∞, ∞)

Let me know if this helps!
