A test-preparation company advertises that its training program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points. A random sample of test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points.
(a) Write the hypotheses for a left-tailed test of the mean.
(b) Explain the consequences of a Type I error in this context.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

(a) Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu \geq[/tex] 30 points

    Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] < 30 points

(b) Type I error is that we conclude that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points but in actual, the program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a test-preparation company advertises that its training program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

A random sample of test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = average SAT score.

(a) So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu \geq[/tex] 30 points

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] < 30 points

Here, the null hypothesis states that the training program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

On the other hand, the alternate hypothesis states that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points.

(b) Type I error states the probability of rejecting the null hypothesis given the fact that null hypothesis is true.

According to the question, the Type I error is that we conclude that test-takers who had completed the training showed a mean increase smaller than 30 points but in actual, the program raises SAT scores by an average of at least 30 points.

The consequence of a Type I error is that we conclude the test-takers have low SAT scores but in actual they have an SAT score of at least 30 points.

A ladder leans against a vertical at angle of 60° to the wall of the foot of the ladder is 5m away from the wall calculate the length of the ladder ​

Answers

Answer:

Your question indicates the ladder is at an angle of 60° to the wall, meaning the angle between the wall and the ladder is 60° and the angle between the ladder and the ground must be 30°. Not a very efficient way to set up a ladder.

5.7735 meters. The top of the ladder is 2.8868 meters off the ground.

Now, if you meant the ladder is 60° from the ground, that’s a different story.

Then, the ladder is 10 meters long and reaches 8.6603 meters from the ground.

A 30–60–90 right triangle is half of an equalateral triangle. Therefore the hypotenuse is double the length of the short leg, and by the Pythagorean theorum, we can determine that the other leg is the length of the short leg times the square root of 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jilk Inc.'s contribution margin ratio is 62% and its fixed monthly expenses are $45,000. Assuming that the fixed monthly expenses do not change, what is the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $132,000?

Answers

Answer: $ 36,840.

Step-by-step explanation:

contribution margin=62% =0.62

fixed monthly expenses = $45,000

Sales =  $132,000

We assume that the fixed monthly expenses do not change.

Then, company's net operating income = (contribution margin×Sales )-fixed monthly expenses

=$( (0.62×132000)-45000 )

= $ (81840-45000)

= $ 36,840

Hence, the best estimate of the company's net operating income in a month when sales are $132,000 is $ 36,840.

Which is an infinite arithmetic sequence? a{10, 30, 90, 270, …} b{100, 200, 300, 400} c{150, 300, 450, 600, …} d{1, 2, 4, 8}

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

An arithmetic sequence has a common difference d between consecutive terms.

Sequence a

30 - 10 = 20

90 - 30 = 60

270 - 90 = 180

This sequence is not arithmetic

Sequence b

200 - 100 = 100

300 - 200 = 100

400 - 300 = 100

This sequence is arithmetic but is finite, that is last term is 400

Sequence c

300 - 150 = 150

450 - 300 = 150

600 - 450 = 150

This sequence is arithmetic and infinite, indicated by ........ within set

Sequence d

2 - 1 = 1

4 - 2 = 2

8 - 4 = 4

This sequence is not arithmetic

Thus the infinite arithmetic sequence is sequence c

if a flight to europe takes about 13 hours and you make one round trip flight per month how many total days do you travel in a year

Answers

Answer:

13 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a one-way flight to europe will take 13 hours

A round trip will take = 13 hrs x 2 = 26 hours

Also given that we make one round trip per months for 12 months (1 year)

We will take a total of 12 round trips per year

Number of hours taken for 12 round trips

= 26 hours per round trip x 12 round trips

= 26 x 12

= 312 hours

Recall that there are 24 hours in a day, hence to convert 312 hours into days, we have to divide this by 24.

Number of days = number of hours ÷ 24

= 312 ÷ 24

= 13 days

Since 17*3=51, we know that in total, three seventeens fit inside 55. Yet, there's still remainders.

The function y = 2 cos 3(x + 2π∕3) +1 has a phase shift (or horizontal shift) of

A) –2π∕3
B) 3
C) 1
D) 2

Answers

Answer:

-2pi/3

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2 cos 3(x + 2π∕3) +1

y = A sin(B(x + C)) + D  

amplitude is A

period is 2π/B

phase shift is C (positive is to the left)

vertical shift is D

We have a shift to the left of 2 pi /3

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard cosine function has the form:

[tex]\displaystyle y = a\cos (b(x-c)) + d[/tex]

Where |a| is the amplitude, 2π / b is the period, c is the phase shift, and d is the vertical shift.

We have the function:

[tex]\displaystyle y = 2 \cos 3\left(x + \frac{2\pi}{3}\right) + 1[/tex]

We can rewrite this as:

[tex]\displaystyle y = \left(2\right)\cos 3\left(x - \left(-\frac{2\pi}{3}\right)\right) + 1[/tex]

Therefore, a = 2, b = 3, c = -2π/3, and d = 1.

Our phase shift is represented by c. Thus, the phase shift is -2π/3.

Our answer is A.

We do the multiplications first    ( according to PEMDAS):-

= 6 + 9 * 0.1 + 8 * 0.01 + 6 * 0.001

= 6 + 0.9 + 0.08 + 0006

The value of the equation in the decimal form is A = 6.986

What is an Equation?

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

A = 6 x 1 + 9 x 1/10 + 8 x 1/100 + 6 x 1/1000

On simplifying the equation , we get

The value of 6 x 1 = 6

The value of 9 x 1/10 = 0.9

The value of 9 x 1/100 = 0.08

The value of 6 x 1/1000 = 0.006

So , substituting the values in the equation A , we get

A = 6 + 0.9 + 0.08 + 0.006

On simplifying the equation , we get

A = 6.986

Therefore , the value of A is 6.986

Hence , the value of the equation is 6.986

If a cube has an edge of 2 feet. The edge is increasing at the rate of 6 feet per minute. How would i express the volume of the cube as a function of m, the number of minutes elapsed. V(m)= ??

Answers

Answer:

v(m) = 8 + 48m+ 180m² +216m³

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first of all represent the edge of the the cube as a function of minutes.

Initially the egde= 2feet

As times elapsed , it increases at the rate of 6 feet per min, that is, for every minute ,there is a 6 feet increase.

Let the the egde be x

X = 2 + 6(m)

Where m represent the minutes elapsed.

So we Al know that the volume of an edge = edge³

but egde = x

V(m) = x³

but x= 2+6(m)

V(m) = (2+6m)³

v(m) = 8 + 48m+ 180m² +216m³

The volume of cube as function of m is,   [tex]V(m)=72m[/tex]

Let us consider that edge of cube is a feet.

Since,   The edge is increasing at the rate of 6 feet per minute.

                      [tex]\frac{da}{dt}=6feet/min.[/tex]

Volume of cube , V = [tex]a^{3}[/tex]

            [tex]\frac{dV}{dt} =3a^{2} \frac{da}{dt}[/tex]

Substituting the value of  da/dt in above equation.

We get,     [tex]\frac{dV}{dt}=3a^{2}*(6) =18a^{2} \\\\dV=18a^{2}dt[/tex]

Integrating on both side.

          [tex]V=18a^{2}t[/tex]

Since, number of minutes elapsed is m.

Substitute , t = m and a = 2 feet in above equation.

We get,     [tex]V=18(2)^{2}*m=72m[/tex]

Thus, the volume of cube as function of m is,   [tex]V(m)=72m[/tex]
