A schoolteacher would like to know whether or not toothpaste brands are used differentially in her classroom (in other words, is one brand preferred over the others?). She asks her students to report which of three brands they use: Crest, Colgate, or Aquafresh. Below are the numbers of students who use each type of toothpaste (notice there are 45 students total in her class). Test her hypothesis using an alpha level of .05.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What test is appropriate for this analysis?

A Chi-square  test of independence is appropriate for this analysis because it is used to compare two variables or testing relationship on categorical variables.  

b. State the null hypothesis:

The null hypothesis is the default hypothesis

[tex]\mathtt{H_o:}[/tex] There is no particular preference for any brand of toothpaste among students.

c. State the alternative hypothesis:

The alternative hypothesis is the research hypothesis which comes in place to challenge the validity of the null hypothesis.

[tex]\mathtt{H_a:}[/tex] There is particular preference for brands of toothpaste among students.

d. Find the critical value:

degree of freedom = n-1

degree of freedom = 3 - 1

degree of freedom = 2

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05

The confidence interval = 0.95 and degree of freedom = 2, the critical value from the chi-square distribution table = 5.991

e. Calculate the test statistic:

Using the chi square test statistics; we have the following:

Crest             Colgate            Aquafresh            Total

24                        13                     8                      45

Since we have three brands. Then, for each brand, the expected value

= Total /3

= 45/3

=15

Thus:

Chi -square [tex]\mathtt{X^2 = \dfrac{(observed \ value - expected \ value)^2}{expected \ value}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{X^2 = \dfrac{(24 - 15)^2}{15} + \dfrac{(13 - 15)^2}{15} + \dfrac{(8 - 15)^2}{15} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{X^2 = \dfrac{81}{15} + \dfrac{4}{15} + \dfrac{49}{15} }[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{X^2 = \dfrac{81+4+49}{15}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{X^2 = \dfrac{134}{15}}[/tex]

[tex]\mathtt{X^2 =8.93 }[/tex]

f. Make a decision:

Since the chi-square value is greater than the critical value , we reject the null hypothesis and conclude that the students have  particular preference for brands of toothpaste.

Suppose that the neighboring cities of Tweed and Ledee are long-term rivals. Neal, who was born and raised in Tweed, is confident that Tweed residents are more concerned about the environment than the residents of Ledee. He knows that the average electricity consumption of Tweed households last February was 854.11 kWh and decides to test if Ledee residents used more electricity that month, on average. He collects data from 65 Ledee households and calculates the average electricity consumption to be 879.28 kWh with a standard deviation of 133.29 kWh. There are no outliers in his sample data. Neal does not know the population standard deviation nor the population distribution. He uses a one-sample t-test with a significance level of α = 0.05 to test the null hypothesis, H0:µ=854.11, against the alternative hypothesis, H1:μ>854.11 , where μ is the average electricity consumption of Ledee households last February. Neal calculates a t‑statistic of 1.522 and a P-value of 0.066.

Based on these results, complete the following sentences to state the decision and conclusion of the test.

Answer:

Neal's decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis   (p 0.066). There is no sufficient evidence to prove the claim that the average electricity consumption of all  Ledee household is greater than , 854.28 kWh

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  [tex]\mu = 854.11[/tex]

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 65[/tex]

    The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 879.28 \ kWh[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 133.29 \ kWh[/tex]

    The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

     The  null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o: \mu = 854.11[/tex]

     The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu > 854.11[/tex]

     The  t-statistics is  [tex]t = 1.522[/tex]

      The  p-value is [tex]p-value = 0.066[/tex]

Now from the given data we can see that

         [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex]

Generally when this is the case , we fail to reject the null hypothesis

   So

Neal's decision is to fail to reject the null hypothesis   (p 0.066). There is no sufficient evidence to prove the claim that the average electricity consumption of all  Ledee household is greater than , 854.28 kWh

PLEASE HELP ME!!! The students in Suzanne's school are painting a rectangular mural outside the building that will be 15 feet by 45 feet. To prepare they are create a scale drawing that represents 20% of the given dimensions. What is the length and width of the scale drawing?

Answers

Answer:

length of scale drawing = 9 feet

width of scale drawing = 3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual dimension  15 feet by 45 feet.

length = 45 feet

width = 15 feet

Dimension on drawing is 20% of actual dimension.

20% = 20/100

Thus,

20% of 15 feet = 20/100 * 15 feet = 3 feet

20% of 45 feet = 20/100 * 45 feet = 9 feet

Thus, length of scale drawing = 9 feet

width of scale drawing = 3 feet

Draw the image of ABC under dilation whose center is P and scale factor is 4.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the point P is origin (0, 0), segment AB lies on the x-axis and segment PC on the y-axis,

Coordinates of A, B and C will be (1, 0), (2, 0) and (0, 2).

When triangle ABC is dilated by a scale factor 4 about the origin,

Rule for dilation;

(x, y) → (4x, 4y)

New coordinates of the points A, B and C will be,

A(1, 0) → A'(4, 0)

B(-2, 0) → B'(-8, 0)

C(0, 2) → C'(0, 8)

By plotting points A', B' and C' we can get the dilated image A'B'C'.

Dilation involves changing the size of a shape.

Assume point P is the center of origin, then we have the following coordinates of ABC

[tex]A = (1,0)[/tex]

[tex]B = (-2,0)[/tex]

[tex]C = (0,2)[/tex]

The scale factor (k) is given as:

[tex]k= 4[/tex]

So, the dilation rule is represented as:

[tex](x,y) \to (4 \times (x,y)[/tex]

Using the above dilation rule, the following coordinates represent the image of triangle ABC

[tex]A' = (4,0)[/tex]

[tex]B' = (-8,0)[/tex]

[tex]C = (0,8)[/tex]

See attachment for the image of the dilation.

B. Compute the least squares estimated line.
C. Compute the correlation coefficient between temperature and the sales of coffee.
D. Predict sales of a 90 degree day.

Answers

Answer:

1. cups of coffee sold

2.Y = 605.7 - 5.943x

3. -0.952

4. 70.84

Step-by-step explanation:

1. the dependent variable in this question is the cups of coffee sold

2. least square estimation line

Y = a+bx

we have y as the cups of coffee sold

x as temperature.

first we will have to solve for a and then b

∑X = 450

∑Y = 960

∑XY = 61600

∑X² = 35500

∑Y² = 221800

a = ∑y∑x²-∑x∑xy/n∑x²-(∑x)²

a = 960 * 35500-450*61600/6*35500-450²

a = 6360000/10500

= 605.7

b = n∑xy - ∑x∑y/n∑x²-(∑x)²

= 6*61600 - 450*960/6*35500 - 450²

= -5.943

the regression line

Y = a + bx

Y = 605.7 - 5.943x

3. we are to find correlation coefficient

r = n∑xy - ∑x∑y multiplied by√(n∑x²-(∑x)² * (n∑y² - (∑y)²)

= 6*61600 -960*450/√(6*35500 - 450²)*(6*221800 - 960²)

=-62400/√4296600000

= -62400/65548.5

= -0.952

4. we have to predict sales of a 90 degree day fro the regression line

Y = 605.7 - 5.943x

y = 605.7 - 5.943(90)

y = 605.7 - 534.87

= 70.84

The Freeman family is barbecuing veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps in their local park. If 3 8 of the items barbecued are veggie burgers, and 1 3 of the items barbecued are corn cobs, what fraction of barbecued items are mushroom caps?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is below

Step-by-step explanation:

The Freeman family barbecued veggie burgers, corn cobs, and mushroom caps. 3/8 of the items barbecued are veggie burgers, and 1/3 of the items barbecued are corn cobs.

Let the total number of berbecued items be x. Therefore:

x = barbecued veggie burgers + barbecued corn cobs + barbecued mushroom caps

Barbecued veggie burgers = (3/8)x, barbecued corn cobs = (1/3)x, Let barbecued mushroom caps be y

Substituting:

x = (3/8)x + (1/3)x + y

Multiply through by 24

24x = 9x + 8x + 24y

24x = 17x + 24y

24y = 24x - 17x

24y = 7x

y = (7/24)x

barbecued mushroom caps = (7/24) of items

7/24 of the items barbecued are mushroom caps

Using fractions, it is found that the fraction of barbecued items that are mushroom caps is of [tex]\frac{7}{24}[/tex].

---------------------------

The total proportion of all products is 100% = 1.The fraction corresponding to veggie burgers is [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex].The fraction corresponding to corn cobs is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex].The fraction corresponding to mushroom caps is x.

---------------------------

Thus:

[tex]\frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{3} + x = 1[/tex]

Solving for x, we find the fraction of mushroom caps.The least common multiple of 3 and 8 is 24.

Then:

[tex]\frac{3\times3 + 8\times1 + 24x}{24} = 1[/tex]

[tex]\frac{17 + 24x}{24} = 1[/tex]

[tex]17 + 24x = 24[/tex]

[tex]24x = 7[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{7}{24}[/tex]

The fraction of barbecued items that are mushroom caps is of [tex]\frac{7}{24}[/tex].
