Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) H0:
Ha:
(Two tailed test at 5% significance level)
b) n=30
Mean difference =
Std error of mean =
b) Test statistic t = mean diff/std error = -1.552
df = 30-1 =29
p value=0.0657
c) Since p > 0.05 our signi. level, we accept null hypothesis.
There is no significant difference between the means.
d) Using critical value we find that test statistic is > critical value left
So accept H0
Answer:
A) The model exists: f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4
Step-by-step explanation:
A quadratic model will always exist for 3 given points, provided they are not on a line. In that case, a linear model is appropriate.
Here, the slope between -1 and 0 is positive, and the slope between 0 and 3 is negative. Thus, we know these points are not collinear, and a model must exist.
The model is most easily found using a quadratic regression tool. Such is shown in the attachment. It tells us that ...
f(x) = -3x^2 +4x -4
