The proper choice of toothbrush is important in dental care. On 14 patients, measures of Gingivitis were taken at the beginning of the experiment. After this, each was given an experimental toothbrush to be used for the next 45 days. Afterwards, dental exam measures were given again of these same individuals. The mean of the differences in scores was 5.5 with a sample standard deviation of 11.6. The mean score before the experiment was 56.4 with a sample standard deviation of 6.4 The mean score after the experiment was 60.6 with a sample standard deviation of 4.3 Let alpha = 0.05
What is the p value from the test of the previous hypothesis?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The p-value of the test is 0.049.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dependent t-test (also known as the paired t-test or paired samples t-test) compares the two means associated groups to conclude if there is a statistically significant difference amid these two means.

In this case a paired t-test is used to determine whether the experimental toothbrush was effective or not.

The hypothesis for the test can be defined as follows:

H₀: The experimental toothbrush was not effective, i.e. d = 0.

Hₐ: The experimental toothbrush was effective, i.e. d < 0.

The information provided is:

 [tex]\bar d=5.5\\S_{d}=11.6\\n=14[/tex]

Compute the test statistic value as follows:

 [tex]t=\frac{\bar d}{S_{d}/\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{5.5}{11.6/\sqrt{14}}\\\\=1.7740617\\\\\approx 1.774[/tex]

The test statistic value is 1.774.

Decision rule:

If the p-value of the test is less than the significance level then the null hypothesis will be rejected and vice-versa.

Compute the p-value of the test as follows:

 [tex]p-value=P(t_{n-1}<1.774)[/tex]

                [tex]=P(t_{13}<1.774)\\=0.049[/tex]

*Use a t-table.

The p-value of the test is 0.049.

p-value= 0.049 > α = 0.05

The null hypothesis will be rejected.

Thus, it can be concluded that experimental toothbrush was effective.

Any one can help with this Venn Diagram question?.Please note that there is an another language, ignore except if you can understand it. ​

Answers

Answer:

(i) 30

(ii) 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by drawing 3 rings for the Venn diagram.  Each ring represents either Audi, BMW, or Citroën.

Next, add the information provided in the problem statement.  We know that 20 choose BMW only.  Another 20 choose Citroën only.

We know the number who choose all 3 is the same as the number that choose BMW and Citroën, but not Audi.  We'll call this number x.

Similarly, we know that the number who choose all 3 is half of those choose Audi and BMW, but not Citroën.  So we'll say that number is 2x.

We know the total number of Audi votes is 48, the total number of BMW votes is 36, and the total number of Citroën votes is 34.

Finally, we know the total number of voters is 100, including those who voted for no favorites (we'll call that number n).

We know that BMW got 36 votes, so:

20 + x + x + 2x = 36

20 + 4x = 36

4x = 16

x = 4

We know that Citroën got 34 votes, so:

20 + x + x + z = 34

20 + 4 + 4 + z = 34

28 + z = 34

z = 6

We know that Audi got 48 votes:

y + 2x + x + z = 48

y + 2(4) + 4 + 6 = 48

y + 18 = 48

y = 30

Finally, we know that the total number of voters is 100.

20 + 20 + x + x + 2x + y + z + n = 100

20 + 20 + 4 + 4 + 2(4) + 30 + 6 + n = 100

92 + n = 100

n = 8

A corporate team-building event costs $32, plus an additional $1 per attendee. If there are 66 attendees, how much will the corporate team-building event cost?

Answers

Answer:

corporate team-building event cost will cost $98

Step-by-step explanation:

A corporate team-building event costs $32, plus an additional $1 per attendee.

Let cost be C

The expression for the above statement

C($)= 32+n(1)

Where n is the number of attendees

So a situation where there are 66 attendees, the total cost will be

C($) = 32 +66(1)

C($) = 32+66

C($)= 98

Step-by-step explanation:

At the north campus of a performing arts​ school, ​20% of the students are music majors. At the south​ campus, 70​% of the students are music majors. The campuses are merged into one east campus. If ​30% of the 1000 students at the east campus are music​ majors, how many students did the north and south campuses have before the​ merger?

Answers

Answer:

The north campus had [tex]800[/tex] while the south campus had [tex]200[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

The question stated that there are [tex]1000[/tex] students in the merged campus. That's the sum of the number of students in the north and the south campus before the merger.

Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the number of students in the north campus before the merger. The other [tex](1000 -x)[/tex] students would all belong to the south campus before the merger.

Before the merger, [tex]20\%[/tex] of the students of the north campus are of music majors. In terms of [tex]x[/tex], that's [tex](20\%)\cdot x = 0.20\,x[/tex] students.

On the other hand, [tex]70\%[/tex] of the students of the south campus are of music majors. That corresponds to [tex](70\%)\cdot (1000 - x) = 0.70\cdot (1000 - x) = 700 - 0.70\, x[/tex] students.

With a similar logic, the number of music students in the merged east campus will be [tex]30\% \times 1000 = 300[/tex].

The question implies that the sum of students in the two campuses should be equal to the number of music students in the east campus. That is:

[tex]0.20\, x+ (700 - 0.70\, x) = 300[/tex].

Solve for [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]x = 800[/tex].

In other words, there are [tex]800[/tex] students in the north campus and [tex](1000 - 800) = 200[/tex] students in the south campus before the merger.

The length of a rectangle is 10m greater than the width. The area is 24m^2

Answers

Answer:

length: 12m

width: 2m

Step-by-step explanation:

24 = a*w

a = w+10

then:

24 = (w+10)w

24 = w*w + 10*w

24 = w² + 10w

0 = w² + 10 - 24

w = {-10±√((10²)-(4*1*-24))} / (2*1)

w = {-10±√(100+96)} / 2

w = {-10±√196} / 2

w = {-10±14} / 2

only positive numbers:

w = {-10+14}/2

w = 4/2

w = 2m

a = w+10

a = 2 + 10

a = 12m

Check:

24 = 12*2

The angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees.

The second angle is 15 degrees larger than the smallest angle.

The third angle is 3 times as big as the smallest angle.

Find the measure of the smallest angle (in degrees)

Answers

Answer:

33°

Step-by-step explanation:

We were given that:

1- The angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees

2- The second angle is 15 degrees larger than the smallest angle

3- The third angle is 3 times as big as the smallest angle

So, first of all, let's call the smallest angle x.

the second angle will be (x + 15°) since it is 15 degrees greater than the smallest angle

and the third will be 3x, since it is 3 times bigger than the smallest angle.

With the information we have, we can form an equation!

180° = x + (x+ 15°) + 3x

180° = 5x + 15°

180° - 15° = 5x + 15° - 15°

165° = 5x

165°/5 = 5x/5

33° = x

therefore, the smallest angle measures 33° degrees, the second angle measures 48° and the third angle measures 99°.

99° + 33° + 48° = 180°

so it is safe to say this answer is correct!

If the angles of a triangle add up to 180 degrees. The second angle is 15 degrees larger than the smallest angle. The third angle is 3 times as big as the smallest angle then 35 degree is the measure of the smallest angle.

The sum of three angles is 180 degrees

Let the smallest angle be x

The second angle is 15 degrees  larger than the smallest angle.

The third angle is 3 times as big as the smallest angle.

We need to find smallest angle.

What is angle sum property of triangle?

The sum of three angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

Let the smallest angle be x

The second angle is 15 degrees  larger than the smallest angle.

The third angle is 3 times as big as the smallest angle.

We need to find smallest angle x=?

x+(x+15)+3x=180

2x+15+3x=180

5x+15=180

5x=165

Divide both sides by 5.

x=35

Therefore the smallest angle is 35 degree.

E. Cashews: 0.23 lb.; peanuts: 0.27 1b.
F. Cashews: 0.08 lb.; peanuts: 0.42 1b

Answers

Answer:

E

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's let c denote the amount of cashews and let's let p denote the amount of peanuts.

So, the owner wants to mix cashews worth $5.50 per pound with peanuts worth $2.30 per pound to get a 1/2 pound mixture that is worth $2.80 per pound.

In other words, the total pounds as an equation is:

[tex]c+p=0.5[/tex]

Also, the price would be:

[tex]5.5c+2.3p=(p+c)2.8[/tex]

Since we mixed the peanuts and cashews, our sum would be 2.8(p+c).

And we already determined that p+c is 0.5. Thus, substitute:

[tex]5.5c+2.3p=(0.5)(2.8)[/tex]

Simplify:

[tex]5.5c+2.3p=1.4[/tex]

Now, we can solve the system of equations. Isolate a variable from the very first equation:

[tex]c+p=0.5[/tex]

Subtract p from both sides:

[tex]c=0.5-p[/tex]

Now, substitute this into the equation earlier:

[tex]5.5c+2.3p=1.4\\5.5(0.5-p)+2.3p=1.4[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]2.75-5.5p+2.3p=1.4[/tex]

Combine like terms:

[tex]2.75-3.2p=1.4[/tex]

Subtract both sides by 2.75:

[tex]-3.2p=-1.35[/tex]

Divide everything by -3.2:

[tex]p=0.412875[/tex]

Now, find c:

[tex]p+c=.5[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]c+0.421875=.5[/tex]

Subtract:

[tex]c=0.078125[/tex]

Thus, the owner would need 0.08 pounds of cashews and 0.42 pounds of peanuts.

Our answer is E.
