While you can use the correlation coefficient as its own test statistic, what is the other appropriate test statistic often used to examine the significance of a correlation

Answers

Answer:

T-test

Step-by-step explanation:

Significance of correlation between two variables x and y measures the strength and direction of their relationship. This is used to make future forecasts of the behaviour of a variable under study.

Correlation coefficient can be used to measure significance of correlation, but we can also use the t-test.

T-test is a statistics that is inferential. It measures the significance of difference between the means of two groups.

T-test is the statistic of choice when carrying out hypothesis testing.

T distribution values and degrees of freedom are used to determine statistical significance.

For example the means of two samples can be compared to determine of the come from the same population

A population has a standard deviation of 16. If a sample of size 64 is selected from this population, what is the probability that the sample mean will be within 2 of the population mean?

a. Since the mean is not given, there is no answer to this question.

b. -0.6826

c. 0.3413

d. 0.6826

e. -0.3413

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 16[/tex]

     The sample size is  n =  64

The standard error of mean is mathematically evaluated as

        [tex]\sigma _{\= x } = \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]\sigma _{\= x } = \frac{16 }{\sqrt{64} }[/tex]

        [tex]\sigma _{\= x } = 2[/tex]

Generally the probability that the sample mean will be within 2 of the population mean is mathematically represented as

              [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(\frac{( \mu - 2 ) - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} < \frac{ \= x - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} < \frac{( \mu +2 ) - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} )[/tex]

Generally  [tex]\frac{ \= x - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} = Z (The \ standardized \ value \ of \ \= x )[/tex]

So

         [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(\frac{( \mu - 2 ) - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} < Z< \frac{( \mu +2 ) - \mu }{\sigma_{\= x }} )[/tex]

         [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(\frac{( -2 }{\sigma_{\= x }} < Z< \frac{ 2 }{\sigma_{\= x }} )[/tex]

substituting values

        [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(\frac{-2 }{2} < Z< \frac{ 2 }{2} )[/tex]

        [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(-1< Z< 1 )[/tex]

=>     [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = P(Z < 1) - P(Z < -1)[/tex]

From the normal distribution table [tex]P(Z < 1 ) = 0.84134[/tex]

                                                          [tex]P(Z < - 1) = 0.15866[/tex]

=>  [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = 0.84134 - 0.15866[/tex]

=>   [tex]P( \mu - 2 < \= x < \mu + 2) = 0.6826[/tex]

line m in the xy-plane above is to be reflected through the x-axis. if the slope of line m is 2/3,whats is the slope of the image of line m under the reflection.

Answers

Answer: The new slope is -(2/3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, we know that our line can be written as:

y = (2/3)*x + b

where b is the y-intercept, and here does not really matter.

Ok, remember that if we have a point (x, y) and we reflect it over the x-axis, the new point will be (x, -y).

For our linear equation, the point (x, y) can be written as:

(x, y = (2/3)*x + b) = (x,  (2/3)*x + b)

Now, after the reflection, our point is:

(x, - ( (2/3)*x + b)) = (x, -(2/3)*x - b)

Then our new line is y = -(2/3)*x - b

The new slope is -(2/3)

22. f(x) is stretched horizontally by a factor of 2 and reflected across the x-axis. Which choice shows the correct representation of f(x) after these transformations?

B. f(–2x)

C. –f(2x)

D. f(–1/2x)

Answers

Answer:

A. -f(1/2 x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflextion about the x-axis is

f(x) -> -f(x)

and horizontal dilation is

f(x) -> f(-x/b) where b is the factor of dilation.

so the proper answwer is

A. -f(1/2 x)

The mean salary of federal government employees on the General Schedule is $59,593. The average salary of 30 state employees who do similar work is $58,800 with \sigmaσσ= $1500. At the 0.01 level of significance, can it be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees? What is the critical value? Round your answer to the nearest hundredths.

Answers

Answer:

Yes it can be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees

  The critical value is  [tex]Z_{\alpha } = - 2.33[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  population mean is  [tex]\mu = \$ 59593[/tex]

   The sample size is  n =  30

    The  sample mean is [tex]\= x = \$ 58800[/tex]

     The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = \$ 1500[/tex]

     The significance level is  [tex]\alpha = 0.01[/tex]

   

The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o : \mu = \$ 59593[/tex]

 The  alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu < \$ 59593[/tex]

The critical value of [tex]\alpha[/tex] from the normal distribution table is  [tex]Z_{\alpha } = - 2.33[/tex]

 Generally the test statistics is  mathematically evaluated as

            [tex]t = \frac{\= x - \mu}{ \frac{ \sigma }{ \sqrt{n} } }[/tex]

=>         [tex]t = \frac{ 58800 - 59593 }{ \frac{ 1500 }{ \sqrt{30} } }[/tex]  

=>          [tex]t = -2.896[/tex]

The  p-value is obtained from the z-table

   [tex]p-value = P(t < -2.896) = 0.0018898[/tex]

Since [tex]p-value < \alpha[/tex] , we reject the null hypothesis, hence it can be concluded that state employees earn on average less than federal employees

How do you the probability that a sample of size n= 20 is randomly selected with a mean less than 109.8?
P(M < 109.8)

Also, I have to round the answer to the 4th decimal place. How do I do that?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (109.8 − 106.9) / 14.5

z = 0.2

Use a chart or calculator to find the probability.

P(Z < 0.2) = 0.5793

Find the mean and standard deviation of the sampling distribution.

μ = 106.9

σ = 14.5 / √20 = 3.242

Find the z-score.

z = (x − μ) / σ

z = (109.8 − 106.9) / 3.242

z = 0.894

Use a calculator to find the probability.

P(Z < 0.894) = 0.8145

An initial deposit of $10000 is left in account for 5.5 years at 3.6% interest compounded continuously. What is the
final value of the account to the nearest dollar after the 5.5 years?

Answers

Answer:

11980

Step-by-step explanation:

This is simple interest.

We use the formula i=prt. Interest = price x rate x time

You just plug in your numbers, 10000 is your price, 5.5 years is the time, and 3.6% interest is rate.

Now our equation looks like this: i = 10000 x 5.5 x 0.036

(i converted the percent to a decimal)

So the interest is 1980, but the question asks for the final value, so we add the interest to the initial deposit, 1980 + 10000, and we get 11980 for our final value.

x = 2/3 or x = -2/5

If 5x + 2 =12x- 5, then x = ?

Answers

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

First, move all the variables to one side by subtracting 5x on both sides:

5x + 2 = 12x - 5

2 = 7x - 5

Add 5 to both sides:

7 = 7x

1 = x

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + 2 =12x- 5

Subtract 5x from each side

5x-5x + 2 =12x-5x- 5

2 = 7x-5

Add 5 to each side

2+5 = 7x-5+5

7 = 7x

Divide each side by 7

7/7 = 7x/7

Statistics is related to maths because we study, use and even consider statistic problems with reference to mathematics.

• It is mostly used to find the census, which is maths.

• It is used to find interest rates and other banking terms using statistics, which is again related to math.

• It is also used to find the average people living in a village or panchayat, which is also math.

At a local high school, the student population is growing at 12% a year. If the original population was 242 students, how long will it take the population to reach 300 students? Round to the nearest tenth of a year.

Answers

Answer: 2 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The exponential growth function is given by :-

[tex]y=A(1+r)^x[/tex] (i)

, where A = initial value , r = rate of growth and  x= time period.

As per given ,

A= 242

r= 12% = 0.12

To find : t when y= 300.

Put all the values in (i)

[tex]300=242(1+0.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac{300}{242}=(1.12)^x\\\\\Rightarrow\ 1.23967=(1.12)^x[/tex]

Taking log on both sides , we get

[tex]\log (1.2396) = t \log (1.12)\\\\\Rightarrow\ 0.09328=t(0.049218)\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{0.09328}{0.049218}=\approx2[/tex]
