Complete question :

Past experience indicates that the time required for high school seniors to complete a standardized test is a normal random variable with a mean of 35 minutes. If a random sample of 20 high school seniors took an average of 33.1 minutes to complete this test with a standard deviation of 4.3 minutes, test the hypothesis, at the 0.05 level of significance.

Answer:

We conclude they there is significant evidence to support the claim That time required for high school seniors to complete test is less than 35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ = 35

H1 : μ < 35

Sample size, n = 20

Standard deviation, s = 4.3

xbar = 33.1

Test statistic :

T = (xbar - μ) ÷ (s /√n)

T = (33.1 - 35) ÷ (4.3 /√20)

T = - 1.9 ÷ 0.9615092

T = - 1.976

The Pvalue can be obtained from the test statistic using a Pvalue calculator :

Pvalue at 0.05 ; df = 19 is 0.0314

Since, Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null and conclude that time required for high school candidate to complete test is less than 35 minutes

Is anyone able to figure this out, I can't do this

Answer:

C. √2 - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

If we draw a square from the center of the large circle to the center of one of the small circles, we can see that the sides of the square are equal to the radius of the small circle (see attached diagram)

Let r = the radius of the small circle

Using Pythagoras' Theorem a^2+b^2=c^2

(where a and b are the legs, and c is the hypotenuse, of a right triangle)

to find the diagonal of the square:

\implies r^2 + r^2 = c^2

\implies 2r^2 = c^2

\implies c=\sqrt{2r^2}

So the diagonal of the square = \sqrt{2r^2}

We are told that the radius of the large circle is 1:

⇒ Diagonal of square + r = 1

\implies \sqrt{2r^2}+r=1

\implies \sqrt{2r^2}=1-r

\implies 2r^2=(1-r)^2

\implies 2r^2=1-2r+r^2

\implies r^2+2r-1=0

Using the quadratic formula to calculate r:

\implies r=\dfrac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}

\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(-1)}}{2(1)}

\implies r=\dfrac{-2\pm\sqrt{8}}{2}

\implies r=-1\pm\sqrt{2}

As distance is positive, r=-1+\sqrt{2}=\sqrt{2}-1  only

There are 80 guards and 32 forwards in Ben's basketball league.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest common factor between 32 and 80 is 16 not 8.  

32 (forwards) / 16 (teams) = 2 forwards on each team.

80 (guards) / 16 (teams) = 5 guards on each team.

Define the set X = {(x,y)|x &gt; 0,y ≤ √x}.
Kitty [74]

The set X is convex.

In geometry, a subset of an affine space over the real numbers, or more broadly a subset of a Euclidean space, is said to be convex if it contains the entire line segment connecting any two points in the subset. A solid cube is an example of a convex set, whereas anything hollow or with an indent, such as a crescent shape, is not. Alternatively, a convex region is a subset that crosses every line into a single line segment.

b)The set X is convex as any two points on the set X is included in the whole set as x>0. So a line joining any two points on the set X is completely inside the set x.

c)set X is not a closed set as the compliment of the set is not an open set.

d)Set X is not bounded. If a set S contains both upper and lower bounds, it is said to be bounded. A set of real numbers is therefore said to be bounded if it fits inside a defined range. hence set x is not bounded.
