According to a recent study, annual per capita consumption of milk in the United States is 23.8 gallons. Being from the Midwest, you believe milk consumption is higher there and wish to test your hypothesis. A sample of 14 individuals from the Midwestern town of Webster City was selected and then each person's milk consumption was entered below. Use the data to test your hypothesis.
a. Develop a hypothesis test that can be used to determine whether the mean annual consumption in Webster City is higher than the national mean.
b. What is a point estimate of the difference between mean annual consumption in Webster City and the national mean? (2 decimals)
c. At α=0.01
test for a significant difference by completing the following.

Answer 1

Answer:

a. In the explanation.

b. The point estimate of the difference can be calculated as the difference between the sample mean and the population mean:

[tex]d=M-\mu=24.95-23.8=1.15[/tex]

c. Test statistic t = 0.90

P-value = 0.1932

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a sample, wich mean and standard deviation are calculated as:

[tex]M=\dfrac{1}{14}\sum_{i=1}^{14}(27.8+23.84+25.25+21+17.52+19.61+...+26.94+27.24)\\\\\\ M=\dfrac{349.34}{14}=24.95[/tex]

[tex]s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{(n-1)}\sum_{i=1}^{14}(x_i-M)^2}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{13}\cdot [(27.8-(24.95))^2+(23.84-(24.95))^2+...+(27.24-(24.95))^2]}\\\\\\s=\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{13}\cdot [(8.106)+(1.238)+...+(5.23)]}\\\\\\ s=\sqrt{\dfrac{304.036}{13}}=\sqrt{23.39}\\\\\\s=4.8[/tex]

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the consumption of milk in the Midwest is significantly higher than the national average.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

[tex]H_0: \mu=23.8\\\\H_a:\mu> 23.8[/tex]

The significance level is 0.01.

The sample has a size n=14.

The sample mean is M=24.95.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=4.8.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

[tex]s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{4.8}{\sqrt{14}}=1.28[/tex]

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

[tex]t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{24.95-23.8}{1.28}=\dfrac{1.15}{1.28}=0.9[/tex]

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

[tex]df=n-1=14-1=13[/tex]

This test is a right-tailed test, with 13 degrees of freedom and t=0.9, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

[tex]\text{P-value}=P(t>0.9)=0.1932[/tex]

As the P-value (0.1932) is bigger than the significance level (0.01), the effect is not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the consumption of milk in the Midwest is significantly higher than the national average.

Look at the row of numbers. What number should come next?
8, 4, 2, 1, 1/2, 1/4, ?

Answers

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation

Every time the number is divided by 2 like 8 divided by 2 is 4 and 4 divided by 2 is 2 and so on so if you divide 1/4 by 2 it would be 0.125 and that in fraction would be 1/8.

The area of a circle is 153.86 square meters. What is the diameter of the circle? Use 3.14 for π.

Answers

Answer:

Option (2). 14 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to get the area of a circle 'A' = [tex]\pi r^{2}[/tex]

where r = radius of the circle

Given in the question,

Area of the circle = 153.86 square meters

By putting the values in the formula,

153.86 = πr²

r = [tex]\sqrt{\frac{153.86}{\pi } }[/tex]

r = [tex]\sqrt{49}[/tex]

r = 7 meters

Diameter of circle = 2 × (radius of the circle)

                              = 2 × 7

                              = 14 meters

Therefore, diameter of the circle is 14 meters.

Answers

Answer:

After 1st year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1584\\36\\108\end{array}\right][/tex]

After 2nd year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_2 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}5256\\396\\27\end{array}\right][/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A population has the following characteristics.

A total of 25% of the population survives the first year. Of that 25%, 75% survives the second year.

The average number of offspring for each member of the population is 3 the first year, 5 the second year, and 3 the third year.

From the above information, we can construct a transition age matrix.

[tex]A = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right][/tex]

The population now consists of 144 members in each of the three age classes.

From the above information, we can construct the current age matrix.

[tex]x = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}144\\144\\144\end{array}\right][/tex]

How many members will there be in each age class in 1 year?

After 1st year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_1 = A \cdot x[/tex]

[tex]x_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}144\\144\\144\end{array}\right][/tex]

The matrix multiplication is possible since the number of columns of first matrix is equal to the number of rows of second matrix.

[tex]x_1 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1584\\36\\108\end{array}\right][/tex]

After 2nd year, the age distribution will be

[tex]x_2 = A \cdot x_1[/tex]

[tex]x_2 = \left[\begin{array}{ccc}3&5&3\\0.25&0&0\\0&0.75&0\end{array}\right] \times \left[\begin{array}{ccc}1584\\36\\108\end{array}\right][/tex]

4x+3y=20 2x+y=7

Answers

Answer:

x = 1/2 , y = 6

Explanation:

Step 1 - Align the equations and multiply the second row by 2

4x + 3y = 20

2x + y = 7

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 2y = 14

Step 2 - Subtract them both

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 2y = 14

y = 6

So, y = 6

Step 3 - Substitute y into the first equation

4x + 3y = 20

4x + 3(6) = 20

4x + 18 = 20

Step 4 - Subtract 18 from both sides

4x + 18 = 20

4x + 18 - 18 = 20 - 18

4x = 2

Step 5 - Divide both sides by 4

4x = 2

4x / 4 = 2 / 4

x = 2/4

So, x = 1/2

a) a unique solution (a. b .c)=([])
b) no solution (a. b .c)=([])
c) infinitely many solutions (a. b, c) = ([])

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are

x + y = 6- - - - - - - - -1

y + z = 6- - - - - - - -2

x + z = 6- - - - - - - - - 3

From equation 2, y = 6 - z

Substituting y = 6 - z into equation 1, it becomes

x + 6 - z = 6

x - z = 6 - 6

x - z = 0

x = z

Substituting x = z into equation 3, it becomes

z + z = 6

2z = 6

z = 6/2

z = 3

x = 3

Substituting x = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

3 + y = 6

y = 6 - 3

y = 3

ax + by + cz = 0

3a + 3b + 3c = 0

3(a + b + c) = 0

Therefore, it is impossible

The given function is not continuous at xequals4 because ModifyingBelow lim With x right arrow 4 f (x )does not exist.

Answers

Answer:

C. The given function is continuous at x=4 because the limit is 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the function:

[tex]f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{1}{4}x+1 &x\leq 4\\4x-11&x>4\end{array}\right[/tex]

We are to determine if the function is continuous at x=4.

For a function to be continuous  at some value c in its domain:

f(c) must be defined.[tex]Lim_{x \to c}$ f(x)[/tex] must exist. [tex]f(c)=Lim_{x \to c}$ f(x)[/tex]

Now: at x=4

[tex]f(4)=\dfrac{1}{4}*4+1=2[/tex][tex]Lim_{x \to 4}f(x)=2[/tex]

Since the two values are the same, we say that f(x) is continuous at x=4.

The correct option is C.
