Answer:

Its a loss.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when you buy something for $20 and sell it for 35$ you lose money. After buying and selling youʻre only left with $15 which is less than the $20 you had in the first place.

Is that supposed to be:

(a²b³)⁴

If so, the exponent of an exponent is the product of the exponents, so we end up with:

The true average diameter of ball bearings of a certain type is supposed to be 0.5 in. A one-sample t test will be carried out t

Complete Question

The complete question is shown on the first uploaded image

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 0.5 \ in$

Generally the Null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = 0. 5 \ in$

The Alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu \ne 0.5 \ in$

Considering the parameter given for part a

The sample size is n = 15

The test statistics is t = 1.66

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.05$

The degree of freedom is evaluated as

$df = n- 1$

$df = 15- 1$

$df = 14$

Using the critical value calculator at (social science statistics web site )

$t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} ,df } = t_{\frac{0.05 }{2} ,14} = 2.145$

We are making use of this $t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ because it is a one-tail test

Looking at the value of t and $t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ the we see that $t < t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ so the null hypothesis would not be rejected

Considering the parameter given for part b

The sample size is n = 15

The test statistics is t = -1.66

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.05$

The degree of freedom is evaluated as

$df = n- 1$

$df = 15- 1$

$df = 14$

Using the critical value calculator at (social science statistics web site )

$t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} ,df } = t_{\frac{0.05 }{2} ,14} = -2.145$

Looking at the value of t and $t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} ,df }$ the we see that t does not lie in the area covered by $t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} , df }$ (i.e the area from -2.145 downwards on the normal distribution curve ) hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Considering the parameter given for part c

The sample size is n = 26

The test statistics is t = -2.55

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.01$

The degree of freedom is evaluated as

$df = n- 1$

$df = 26- 1$

$df = 25$

Using the critical value calculator at (social science statistics web site )

$t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} ,df } = t_{\frac{0.01 }{2} ,25} = 2.787$

Looking at the value of t and $t_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }$ the we see that t does not lie in the area covered by $t_{\alpha , df }$ (i.e the area from -2.787 downwards on the normal distribution curve ) hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

Considering the parameter given for part d

The sample size is n = 26

The test statistics is t = -3.95

The level of significance $\alpha = 0.01$

The degree of freedom is evaluated as

$df = n- 1$

$df = 26- 1$

$df = 25$

Using the critical value calculator at (social science statistics web site )

$t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} ,df } = t_{\frac{0.01 }{2} ,25} = -2.787$

Looking at the value of t and $t_{\frac{\alpha}{2} }$ the we see that t lies in the area covered by $t_{\alpha , df }$ (i.e the area from -2.787 downwards on the normal distribution curve ) hence we reject the null hypothesis

Determine if the function is an even function, an odd function or neither. y=-5x^2-2x+6

Arlecino [84]

Answer:

Neither even nor odd

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph of y = -5x^2 - 2x + 6 is that of a parabola that opens down. This function is neither even nor odd because a point chosen at random is neither reflected in the y-axis nor reflected in the origin.
