Answer:

$t=\frac{5.63-5}{\frac{1.61}{\sqrt{15}}}=1.516$

$df=n-1=15-1=14$

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{14}>1.516)=0.076$

If we use a significance level of 0.05 we see that $p_v > \alpha$ and then we can conclude that we don't have evidence in order to conclude that the mean is higher than 5.63, so then the claim makes sense.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=5.63$ represent the sample mean

$s=1.61$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$n=15$ sample size

$\mu_o =15/tex] represent the value that we want to test 
[tex]\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the average is more than 5.63, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 5.63$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 5.63$

Compute the test statistic

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{5.63-5}{\frac{1.61}{\sqrt{15}}}=1.516$

Now we need to find the degrees of freedom for the t distribution given by:

$df=n-1=15-1=14$

P value

Since is a right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{14}>1.516)=0.076$

If we use a significance level of 0.05 we see that $p_v > \alpha$ and then we can conclude that we don't have evidence in order to conclude that the mean is higher than 5.63, so then the claim makes sense.

Can someone please teach me how to do this? You can please do like 2 questions and please explain exactly how you got the answer

All of these questions require one thing: trigonometric functions.

There are 3 main trigonometric functions, which can only be used on right triangles: sine, cosine, and tangent.

Sine = opposite / hypotenuse

Cosine = adjacent / hypotenuse

Tangent = opposite / adjacent

When trying to figure out what function to use, we always start by looking from the angle. Take problem a, for example. Looking from angle E, of which the value is not given, we have the side opposite and the side adjacent. Therefore, we should use the tangent function.

---The hypotenuse is always the longest side of the triangle. It is never considered the opposite or adjacent side.

Let's set up our function with the given information from problem a.

tan(x) = 9.7 / 5.2

---The tangent of an unknown angle is equal to the quotient of the opposite side and the adjacent side.

Now, solving for the value of x will require a calculator. We'll need to use what's called an inverse trigonometric function. Most calculators have these directly above the regular trigonometric functions, and the inverse functions are accessed using a "second" key.

---Ensure that your calculator is in degrees, not radians!

x = tan^-1(9.7 / 5.2)

x = 61.805 = 62 degrees

Next, let's take a look at problem b. This time, we're solving for a side length instead of an angle. But, we're still going to start by looking from our angle.

Looking from the 38 degree angle, we are given the adjacent side and an unknown hypotenuse. Therefore, we should use the cosine function.

cosine(38) = 53.1 / r

---The cosine of a 38 degree angle is equal to the quotient of 53.1 and an unknown hypotenuse, r.

Use your algebra skills to isolate the variable r.

r * cosine(38) = 53.1

r = 53.1 / cosine(38)

---From here, all you need to do is plug this into your calculator. Since we are solving for a side length (and given an angle), we are just using the regular trigonometric function buttons on the calculator.

r = 67.385 = 67.4 units

Hope this helps!
