Answer:
- One proportion to solve is 8/18 = x/8
- Exact answer as a fraction: x = 32/9
- Approximate answer in decimal form: x = 3.556
In reality, the 5's go on forever, but we have to round off somewhere.
========================================================
Explanation:
Break up the triangles as your teacher recommends. See the diagram below as to what I mean.
The smaller triangle has A = 8 as the horizontal side, and B = x as the vertical side
The larger triangle has C = 10+8 = 18 as the horizontal aside, and D = 8 as the vertical side.
We can form the proportion A/C = B/D.
A/C connects the horizontal sides (small/large) while B/D has the vertical sides tied together. The order of division is the same small over large. You could do large over small, but make sure you keep both sides consistent.
-----------------
Let's solve for x
A/C = B/D
8/18 = x/8
8*8 = 18*x .... cross multiply
64 = 18x
18x = 64
x = 64/18 .... divide both sides by 18
x = 32/9 exactly in fraction form
x = 3.556 approximately in decimal form
-------------------
Another proportion you can solve is A/B = C/D and you should get the same x value. It's the same as A/C = B/D because the B and C swap places. There are many other approaches you could take using different proportions.
Answer:
Step 1: The null and alternative hypothesis for the one way analysis of variance is,
H₀ : There is no difference in the means of each area.
H₁ : At least one mean is different.
The objective of this question is to test whether the income of the three areas are significantly different.
Step 2: The problem states to use 0.05 significance level.
Step 3: The test statistic follows the F-distribution.
Step 4: Decision rule is based on the critical value.
Numerator degrees of freedom is,
K - 1 = 3 - 1
= 2
Denominator degrees of freedom is 2.
n - k = 12 - 3
= 9
Using the F-distribution table for ∝=0.05 with numerator and denominator degrees freedom, the critical value is 4.26. The decision rule is to reject H₀ if the computed value of F exceeds 4.26.
Step 5: Calculations.
Using Excel follow the steps mentioned below.
1. Import or type the data into spreadsheet.
2. Data--------> Data Analysis----------> Anova: Single Factor, click OK.
3. Select Input Range, make a tick mark on Labels in the first row, enter 0.05 for alfa.
4. Click OK.
The obtained output for the one-way ANOVA is,
[ find the figure in attachment]
From the obtained output, the computed test statistic value, F = 14.18 , which is greater than the critical value of 4.26. So, reject H₀
Step 6: Interpretation. The average income of each area is different. It can be concluded that the average income is significantly different .
