Previously, an organization reported that teenagers spent 24.5 hours per week, on average, on the phone. The organization thinks

that, currently, the mean is higher. Fifteen randomly chosen teenagers were asked how many hours per week they spend on the phone. The sample mean was 25.7 hours with a sample standard deviation of 2.0. What is the appropriate test to perform?

Answer:

We need to develop a one-tail t-student test ( test to the right )

We reject H₀  we find evidence that student spent more than 24,5 hours on the phone

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size  n = 15     n < 30

And we were asked if the mean is higher than, therefore is a one-tail t-student test ( test to the right )

Population mean   μ₀  = 24,5

Sample mean   μ  =  25,7

Sample standard deviation s = 2

Hypothesis Test:

Null Hypothesis      H₀                             μ  =  μ₀

Alternative Hypothesis     Hₐ                  μ  >  μ₀

t (c) =  ?

We will define CI = 95 %  then   α = 5 %   α = 0,05    α/2 =  0,025

n = 15     then degree of freedom    df = 14

From t-student table  we get:  t(c) = 2,1448

And  t(s)

t(s) = ( μ  -  μ₀  ) / s/√n

t(s) = (25,7 - 24,5) /2/√15

t(s) = 2,3237

Now we compare   t(c)   and  t(s)

t(c)  =  2,1448         t(s)  = 2,3237

t(s) > t(c)

Then we are in the rejection region we reject H₀   we have evidence at 95% of CI that students spend more than 24,5 hours per week on the phone

Explain the difference between perimeter and area.why do they measure?what type of units are they measured in?
just olya [345]
Perimeter is the distance around an object / shape. Area is the amount of space within a 2 dimensional surface. For example the perimeter of a square would be the lengths of each side added together while the area would be how much space inside of it that it occupies. Area is measured in units squared, while perimeter is left in just units. In other words if the unit ( measurements ) are conducted in cm, then the area would be put in cm^2. The perimeter would just remain in cm.

X=5y: 2x+5y=60<br><br> A) 10,4<br> B) 15,4<br> C) 20,4<br> D) 25,4
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

C) 20, 4

Step-by-step explanation:

X = 5y

2x + 5y = 60

substitute in 5y for x: 2(5y) + 5y = 60

10y + 5y = 60

15y = 60

y = 4

x = 5y

x = 5(4) = 20

What's 6 c ^ 2 + 2.5 D - D + 2C ^ 2 - 3D what is that simplified
adell [148]

I'm assuming that the lower case c and the upper case C are the same variables.

6C^2 + 2.5D - D + 2C^2 - 3D = 8C^2 - 1.5D
