The correct question is; x² + 2x - 24

The other factor of x² + 2x - 24 asides (x+6) is; (x-4)

The expression given can be factorised as follows;

x² + 6x -4x - 24

x(x+6) -4(x+6)

(x+6) (x-4).

Consequently, the other factor of the expression is (x-4).

A hypothesis test is conducted at the .05 level of significance to test whether or not the population correlation is zero. If th

finlep [7]

Answer:

Th computed value of the test statistic is 3.597

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and the alternative hypothesis is as follows:

Null Hypothesis:

$\mathbf{H_o:}$ the population correlation coefficient is equal to zero

$\mathbf{H_a:}$ the population correlation coefficient is not equal to zero

The test statistics for Pearson correlation coefficient is thus computed as :

$t =\dfrac{r \sqrt{(n-2)}} { \sqrt{(1-(r)^2)} }$

where;

r = correlation coefficient = 0.60

n = sample size = 25

So;

$t =\dfrac{0.60 \sqrt{(25-2)}} { \sqrt{(1-(0.60)^2)} }$

$t =\dfrac{0.60 \sqrt{(23)}} { \sqrt{(1-0.36} }$

$t =\dfrac{0.60 *4.796} {0.8}$

t = 3.597

Comparing to a critical value of t (23 degrees of freedom two-tailed value) = 2.069

Decision Rule:

Since computed value of t is greater than the critical value of t; We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis.

Conclusion:

We conclude that the population correlation coefficient significantly differs from 0 at 5% (0.05) level of significance.

kotykmax [81]

Peanut butter: 8.3 ounces

Sandwich: 5

Divide 8.3 by 5, for equal amount of peanut butter on each sandwich.

8.3/5 = 1.66

She puts 1.66 ounces of peanut butter on each sandwich.
