Assume that a simple random sample has been selected from a normally distributed population. Find the test statistic t.

Using the t-distribution, it is found that the p-value of the test is 0.007.

At the null hypothesis, it is <u>tested if the mean lifetime is not greater than 220,000 miles</u>, that is:

H_0: \mu \leq 220000

At the alternative hypothesis, it is <u>tested if the mean lifetime is greater than 220,000 miles</u>, that is:

H_1: \mu > 220000.

We have the <u>standard deviation for the sample</u>, thus, the t-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

The parameters are:

  • \overline{x} is the sample mean.
  • \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
  • s is the standard deviation of the sample.
  • n is the sample size.

For this problem:

\overline{x} = 226450, \mu = 220000, s = 11500, n = 23

Then, the value of the test statistic is:

t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{226450 - 220000}{\frac{11500}{\sqrt{23}}}

t = 2.69

We have a right-tailed test(test if the mean is greater than a value), with <u>t = 2.69</u> and 23 - 1 = <u>22 df.</u>

Using a t-distribution calculator, the p-value of the test is of 0.007.

Answer the following questions about the sphere whose equation is given by x2+y2+z2−8x+4y=−4. 1. Find the radius of the sphere.
Anna [14]

Answer:

we have (a,b,c)=(4,-2,0) and R=4 (radius)

Step-by-step explanation:

since

x²+y²+z²−8x+4y=−4

we have to complete the squares to finish with a equation of the form

(x-a)²+(y-b)²+(z-c)²=R²

that is the equation of a sphere of radius R and centre in (a,b,c)

thus

x²+y²+z²−8x+4y=−4

x²+y²+z²−8x+4y +4 = 0

x²+y²+z²−8x+4y +4 +16-16 =0

(x²−8x + 16) + (y² + 4y + 4 ) + (z²) -16 = 0

(x-4)² + (y+2)² + z² = 16

(x-4)² + (y-(-2))² + (z-0)² = 4²

thus we have a=4 , b= -2 , c= 0 and R=4

Find the sum of the given vectors and illustrate geometrically. [-1,4],[6,-2]
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

The sum of vectors is <5,2>.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vectors are <-1,4> and <6,-2>.

We need to find the sum of the given vectors and illustrate geometrically.

Plot the point (-1,4) on a coordinate plane and draw a vector <a> from (0,0) to (-1,4).

Plot the point (6,-2) on a coordinate plane and draw a vector <b> from (0,0) to (6,-2).

Now complete the parallelogram and the diagonal represents the sum of both vectors.

The end point of the diagonal is (5,2). It means sum of vectors is <5,2>.

Check the sum of vectors:

+==

Therefore, the sum of vectors is <5,2>.

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

a)  c) μ = 16.4.

b)  d) μ > 16.4.

c) a) μ < 16.4.

d) c) μ ≠ 16.4.

e)  d) right; left; both.

Step-by-step explanation:

Question a:

Test if it is getting worse, so at the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, but at the null hypothesis we test if it is still of 16.4 options, so option C.

Question b:

At the alternative hypothesis we test if the mean is of greater than 16.4 inches, as said above, so the answer is given by option d.

Question c:

Dying down, so if the mean is lower than 16.4 inches, so option a.

Question d:

Don't know, so just test if it is different, which includes both lower or greater, so the correct answer is given by option c.

Question e:

Test if more -> right, so on question b) is a right tailed test.

Test if less -> left, so on question c) is a left tailed test.

Different -> both sides, so on question d) it is a two-tailed test.

Thus the correct answer is given by option d.

Simplify the expression (8x^3y^2/4a^2b^4)^-2
icang [17]
Simplify the following:
((8 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4)/4)^(-2)
8/4 = (4×2)/4 = 2:
(2 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4)^(-2)
Multiply each exponent in 2 x^3 y^2 a^2 b^4 by -2:
(x^(-2×3) y^(-2×2) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/(2^2)
-2×3 = -6:
(x^(-6) y^(-2×2) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/2^2
-2×2 = -4:
(y^(-4) a^(-2×2) b^(-2×4))/(2^2 x^6)
-2×2 = -4:
(a^(-4) b^(-2×4))/(2^2 x^6 y^4)
-2×4 = -8:
b^(-8)/(2^2 x^6 y^4 a^4)
2^2 = 4:
Answer: 1/(4 x^6 y^4 a^4 b^8) thus the answer is A
