A six-week fitness program was designed to decrease the time it takes retired individuals to walk one mile. At the beginning of

the program, 20 randomly selected retired individuals were invited to participate, and their times to walk a mile were recorded. After the six-week program, their times to walk a mile were again recorded. Most participants saw little to no improvement in their times to walk one mile; however, a few participants saw drastic improvements in their times to walk one mile. The program director would like to perform a hypothesis test to determine if the program reduces the mean time for retired individuals to walk a mile. Which of the following statements is true?
a. Because there are 40 observations in total, the sample size is large enough to assume that the sampling distribution of the sample mean differences is approximately normal.
b. Because the walk times before and after the program are paired, a hypothesis test is not appropriate.
c. The sampling distribution of sample means can be assumed to be approximately normal because the distribution of the sample data is not skewed.
d. Because the sample size of 20 is less than 30 and the improvements in walk times in the sample data appear to be skewed, the distribution of sample means should not be assumed to be approximately normal.
e. Because the program recruited only retired individuals, the distribution of sample means should not be assumed to be approximately normal.

Answer:

c. The sampling distribution of the sample means can be assumed to be approximately normal because the distribution of the sample data is not skewed

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given data, we have;

The category of the sample = Retired individuals

The number of participants in the sample = 20

The duration of program = six-weeks

The improvement seen by most participants = Little to no improvement

The improvement seen by few participants = Drastic improvement

Therefore, given that the participants are randomly selected and the majority of the participants make the same observation of improvement in the time to walk a mile, we have that, the majority of the outcomes show little difference in walk times after the program, therefore, the distribution of the sample data is not skewed and can be assumed to be approximately normal

One tick behind one is 3/4, 1/8 is basically half of 1/4, so find 1/4 and find 1/8, 0 is sort of obvious but then not obvious. three ticks behind 3/4. 2 2/3, count UP from 1 1/4 to find 2 2/3. I really hope I helped! :)

Ratling [72]
Y > x
y = 2(3+x)
y = 3x-2
------------------------------
2(3+x) = 3x-2
2(3+x) - (3x-2) = 0
6 + 2x -3x + 2 = 0
8 -x = 0
x = 8
---------------------------
y = 2(3+x) = 2(3+8) = 22
y = 3x-2 = 3*8 -2 = 22
----------------------------------
x = 8 ; y = 22

in the lab, Tammy has two solutions thta contain alcohol and is mixing them with each other. She use twice as much Solution A as
Dmitry_Shevchenko [17]

Answer:

She uses 200 milliliters of solution B

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that there are two unknowns in this problem: 1) the amount of solution A that is being used, and 2) the amount of solution B being used. We can name such unknowns with letters to facilitate our work:

Amount of solution A to be used = A

Amount of solution B to be used = B

So, since we need to find two unknowns, we need to create a system of two equations to solve them.

Our first equation can be obtained from the sentence: "She uses twice as much Solution A as Solution B," which written in mathematical form is:

A = 2 B

The second equation we can build from the information of the amount of alcohol in each solution that combined will add up to 104 milliliters of alcohol in the mixture. Knowing the percent of alcohol in each solution, we can write an equation for the amount of alcohol:

0.19 A + 0.14 B = 104

Now we can use our first equation to substitute A in terms of B in the second equation:

0.19 (2 B) + 0.14 B = 104

0.38 B + 0.14 B = 104

0.52 B = 104

B = 104 / 0.52

B = 200 milliliters
