Answer:7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the median you need to first put the number in order from least to greatest this would be 2, 4 ,5, 7, 7, 7, 8

next you have to find the number in the middle

That is your median, 7 is your median.

Jacob Lee is a frequent traveler between Los Angeles and San Diego. For the past month, he wrote down the flight times in minute

valkas [14]

Solution :

We know that

$H_0: \mu_1 = \mu_2=\mu_3$

$H_1 :$ At least one mean is different form the others (claim)

We need to find the critical values.

We know k = 3 , N = 35, α = 0.05

d.f.N = k - 1

= 3 - 1 = 2

d.f.D = N - k

= 35 - 3 = 32

SO the critical value is 3.295

The mean and the variance of each sample :

Goust Jet red Cloudtran

$\overline X_1 =50.5$ $\overline X_2 =50.07143$ $\overline X_3 =55.71429$

$s_1^2=19.96154$ $s_2^2=14.68681$ $s_3^2=36.57143$

The grand mean or the overall mean is(GM) :

$\overline X_{GM}=\frac{\sum \overline X}{N}$

$=\frac{51+51+...+49+49}{35}$

= 52.1714

The variance between the groups

$s_B^2=\frac{\sum n_i\left( \overline X_i - \overline X_{GM}\right)^2}{k-1}$

$=\frac{\left[14(50.5-52.1714)^2+14(52.07143-52.1714)^2+7(55.71426-52.1714)^2\right]}{3-1}$

$=\frac{127.1143}{2}$

= 63.55714

The Variance within the groups

$s_W^2=\frac{\sum(n_i-1)s_i^2}{\sum(n_i-1)}$

$=\frac{(14-1)19.96154+(14-1)14.68681+(7-1)36.57143}{(14-1)+(14-1)+(7-1)}$

$=\frac{669.8571}{32}$

= 20.93304

The F-test statistics value is :

$F=\frac{s_B^2}{s_W^2}$

$=\frac{63.55714}{20.93304}$

= 3.036212

Now since the 3.036 < 3.295, we do not reject the null hypothesis.

So there is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that there is a difference among the means.

The ANOVA table is :

Source Sum of squares d.f Mean square F

Between 127.1143 2 63.55714 3.036212

Within 669.8571 32 20.93304

Total 796.9714 34

If the frequency of hba homozygotes is 0.1 what is the value of p2

Angelina_Jolie [31]

we know that

p^2 is the the frequency of hba homozygote

we are given

frequency of hba homozygotes is 0.1

so,

p^2 =frequency of hba homozygotes

we can plug values

and we get

$p^2=0.1$ ..............Answer

We have five samples of data: sample A with 30 successes of 50 cases, sample B with 600 successes of 1000 cases, sample C with 3

faust18 [17]

Answer:

C. with 3000 successes of 5000 cases sample

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that we need to test if the proportion of success is greater than 0.5.

From the given options, we can see that they all have the same proportion which equals to;

Proportion p = 30/50 = 600/1000 = 0.6

p = 0.6

But we can notice that the number of samples in each case is different.

Test statistic z score can be calculated with the formula below;

z = (p^−po)/√{po(1−po)/n}

Where,

z= Test statistics

n = Sample size

po = Null hypothesized value

p^ = Observed proportion

Since all other variables are the same for all the cases except sample size, from the formula for the test statistics we can see that the higher the value of sample size (n) the higher the test statistics (z) and the highest z gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis. So the option with the highest sample size gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis.

Therefore, option C with sample size 5000 and proportion 0.6 has the highest sample size. Hence, option C gives the strongest evidence for the alternative hypothesis

Julie pays for a meal at a restaurant with a $20 bill. Let c represent the cost of the food. The total cost includes a tip that

MAVERICK [17]

(c/5+c)-20 You divide the total cost by five to get the tip. You add that to the cost, and the tip and cost added together is the total cost. Subract that from a $20.00 bill and you have the answer! Hope this helps!
