At a basketball game, a team made 53 successful shots. They were a combination of 1- and 2-point

forsale [732]

Answer:

35 two pointers, 18 one pointers

Step-by-step explanation:

equations:

x + y = 53

x + 2y = 88

solving them:

y = 35

x = 18

IT means that the students prefer doing homework after school more than before school!

Find the value of x and y

vova2212 [387]

let's first off take a look at the tickmarks, three side tickmarks, so all those 3 sides are equal, all have a length of y - 25, so is an equilateral triangle.

there are two angle tickmarks, meaning those two angles are equal, wait a second! if those two angles are equal, that means is an isosceles triangle.

now, in an equilateral triangle, all sides are equal, but also all angles are equal, since the sum of all interior angles is 180°, then each angle is really 60°.

let's notice that angle on the upper-left-corner, is a right-angle, but 60° are on the equilateral triangle, and so the remaining 30° must be on the isosceles triangle.

the isosceles triangle has then a vertex of 30°, and twin angles, the twin angles let's say are each a° so then

30° + a° + a° = 180°

30 + 2a = 180

2a = 150

a = 75° = y

now, let's recall, the isosceles triangle has twin angles but it also has twin sides, so the side "x" and the side with the tickmark are equal.

well, we know that y = 75, so the sides with the tickmark are then (75) - 25 = 50 = x.

Consider a chemical company that wishes to determine whether a new catalyst, catalyst XA-100, changes the mean hourly yield of i

kolezko [41]

Answer:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 750$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 750$

$t=\frac{811-750}{\frac{19.647}{\sqrt{5}}}=6.943$

$p_v =2*P(t_{4}>6.943)=0.00226$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and the actual true mean is significantly different from 750 pounds per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

Data: 801, 814, 784, 836,820

We can calculate the sample mean and sample deviation with the following formulas:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}$

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}$

$\bar X=811$ represent the sample mean

$s=19.647$ represent the standard deviation for the sample

$n=5$ sample size

$\mu_o =750$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is different from 750 pounds per hour, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 750$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 750$

Compute the test statistic

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{811-750}{\frac{19.647}{\sqrt{5}}}=6.943$

Now we need to find the degrees of freedom for the t distirbution given by:

$df=n-1=5-1=4$

What do you conclude?

Compute the p-value

Since is a two tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{4}>6.943)=0.00226$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we reject the null hypothesis, and the actual true mean is significantly different from 750 pounds per hour.
