Answer:

between 222 and 223 days

Step-by-step explanation:

This relation includes the point (0, 2).

A proportional relation must include the point (0, 0).

This is not proportional, but it may be linear.

Points: (0, 2), (2, 20)

y = mx + b

20 = (20 - 2)/(2 - 0) × 2 + b

20 = 18/2 × 2 + b

b = 2

y = 18x + 2

When 4000 people know, y = 4000.

y = 18x + 2

4000 = 18x + 2

3998 = 18x

x = 3998/18

x = 222.111...

Answer: between 222 and 223 days

3. A researcher randomly selects a sample of 61 former student leaders from a list of graduates of UNCG who had participated in
Sophie [7]

Answer:

not statistically significant at ∝ = 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample size( n )  = 61

Average for student leader graduates to finish degree ( x') = 4.97 years

std = 1.23

Average for student body = 4.56 years

<u>Determine if the difference between the student leaders and the entire student population is statistically significant at alpha</u>

H0( null hypothesis ) : u = 4.56

Ha : u ≠ 4.56

using test statistic

test statistic ; t = ( x' - u ) / std√ n

                        = ( 4.97 - 4.56 ) / 1.23 √ 61

                        = 2.60

let ∝ = 0.05 , critical value = -2.60 + 2.60

Hence we wont fail to accept  H0

This shows that the difference between the student leaders and the entire student population is not statistically significant at ∝ = 0.05
