A report states that the mean yearly salary offer for students graduating with a degree in accounting is $48,743. Suppose that a

random sample of 50 accounting graduates at a large university who received job offers resulted in a mean offer of $49,870 and a standard deviation of $3300. Do the sample data provide strong support for the claim that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743? Test the relevant hypotheses using α = 0.05. (Use a statistical computer package to calculate the P-value. Round your test statistic to two decimal places and your P-value to three decimal places.) t = P-value = State your conclusion. Do not reject H0. We have convincing evidence that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743. Reject H0. We do not have convincing evidence that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743. Do not reject H0. We do not have convincing evidence that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743. Reject H0. We have convincing evidence that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743.

Answer: Reject H0. We do not have convincing evidence that the mean salary offer for accounting graduates of this university is higher than the national average of $48,743

Step-by-step explanation:

The relevant t-test for this situation would be:

\frac{49870-48743}{\frac{3300}{\sqrt{50} } }

Which is (49870-48743) ÷ standard error

standard error = standard deviation ÷√sample size

From the t-test, we obtain the value = 2.41...

Using α = 0.05, our critical value is 1.96. As 2.41 is larger than 1.96, we reject our null hypothesis that the mean salary offer is higher than $48,743

death valley has an elevation of -282 feet to relative to sea level.Explain how to use absolute value to describe the elevation
Vanyuwa [196]
Absolute value is the distance from a value to zero. In this case, it'd be written as   | -282 |. If x = | -282 |, then x = 282

Which equation represents a line that passes through the point (−2, 6) and is parallel to the line whose equation is 3x − 4y = 6
mart [117]
Method 1:  Realize that the desired equation will look exactly the same as the given equation 3x − 4y = 6, except that the constant will be different.

Thus, the equation of the new line is   3(-2) − 4(6) = C, where C comes out to 30.

Then the new line is 3x - 4y = 30.

Pilar and Ravi start at opposite ends of a 55-mile bike trail. They start riding their bikes toward each other at the same time.
Lynna [10]

Answer:

Ravi’s average speed is 7 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are tasked with calculating what Ravi’s average speed was.

We must know that the term average speed is mathematically equal to Total distance/ Total time

We already have the time of 3 hours, what is needed is the distance.

From the question, we can see that they met at the point where Pilar had travelled 55 miles. What this means is that Ravi would have traveled (55-34) miles to this point since they are coming in opposite direction. This means that Ravi had traveled 21 miles

Thus his average speed is 21 miles/ 3 hours = 7 miles per hour

Given the points (3, 0) and (-1, -3), which of the statements below is true?
nalin [4]
Answer:
We know the x-intercept only

Explanation:
To answer this equation, we need to go through the options individually and use both points to determine if they are true or false.

• Option 1 - False
According to the the first point given, we know the x-intercept is (3, 0).

• Option 2 - True
We only know the x-intercept. It is (3, 0) which is the first point given. We do not know the y-intercept.

• Option 3 - False
We do not know the y-intercept. We only know the x-intercept. In order to know the y-intercept the second point given must include a zero as the x point. The second point give does not include a zero. It is (-1, -3).

• Option 4 - False
We do not know the y-intercept
