A random sample of 35 undergraduate students who completed two years of college were asked to take a basic mathematics test. The

Answer:

The 90 % confidence limits are (-2.09, 8.09).

Since the calculated values do not lie in the critical region we accept our null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and alternative hypothesis are given by

H0: σ₁²= σ₂² against Ha: σ₁² ≠ σ₂²

Confidence interval for the population mean difference is given by

(x`1- x`2) ± t √S²(1/n1 + 1/n2)

Where S ²= (n1-1)S₁² + S²₂(n2-1)/n1+n2-2

Critical value of t with n1+n2-2= 50+ 35-2= 83 will be -1.633

Now calculating

S ²=34* (12.8)²+ (14.6)²*49/83= 192.96

Now putting the values in the t- test

(75.1 -72.1) ± 1.633 √ 192.96(1/35 +1/50)

=3 ± 5.09

=-2.09, 8.09 is the 90 % confidence interval for the difference

The 90 % confidence limits are (-2.09, 8.09).

Since the calculated values do not lie in the critical region we accept our null hypothesis.

finlep [7]

Answer:

0.3157

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that according to a certain news poll, 71% agreed that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly,

Let A be the event that it should be the government's responsibility to provide a decent standard of living for the elderly, and B the event that it would be a good idea to invest part of their Social Security taxes on their own

P(B) = 41%=0.41

A and B are independent

Hence P(both)= $0.77(0.41) = 0.3157\\$

the probability that a person agreed with both propositions

= Probability for both A and B

= P(A) P(B) since A and B are independent

= 0.3157

Valerie ran Three and one-fourth laps yesterday, and her coach wants her to run Two and one-half times that many laps today. How

Maru [420]

Answer:

13/4 * 5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question, it says that her coach wants her to run 2 1/2 TIMES the original 3/4 she had ran. Therefore, you would want to make the fractions into improper fractions, and then multiply, which is how you would get 13/4 * 5/2.
