The logging company would like to use its sample to provide convincing statistical evidence that over 50 percent of the trees in the forest are spruce trees. The logging company has decided to use a chi-square goodness-of-fit test to justify its claim. Why is the chi-square goodness-of-fit test not an appropriate procedure for the logging company to use

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The chi-square goodness-of-fit test is best used with categorical variables.  The trees in the forest are not categorical variables but numerical.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chi-square goodness-of-fit test determines whether the distribution of cases in a single categorical variable follows a known distribution.  The chi-square goodness-of-fit test data deal with data frequencies, levels, or counts of cases rather than percentages or other data transformations. Lastly, the categories of the variables are mutually exclusive because they assume the form of either or.

Answer 2

Answer:

A chi-square goodness-of-fit test would be used to show that the entire distribution of trees in the forest is different than what the forester reported, not necessarily the individual proportion representing the spruce trees.

3/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 3/5

If they are 5 and 2 were eaten, there are 3 left. You would put the amount left as the numerator over the denominator of total slices there were from the start. You cant simplify 3/5 down so it stays that way.

Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Y = 3/2x + 1
The slope is 3/2, opposite sign = -3/2 now reciprocal = -2/3
Y = -2/3x + b
Plug in the point (6,-2)
-2 = -2/3(6) + b
-2 = -12/3 + b
-2 = -4 + b, b =2
Solution: y = -2/3x + 2
X=-0.6 or -2/3

Substitute y for 0

multiply both sides of the equation by 2
Move the variable to the left-hand side and change its sign

Divide both sides of the equation by -3

On a certain hot summer's day, 321 people used the public swimming pool. The daily prices are $1.75 for children and $2.00 for adults. The receipts for admission totaled $634.25. How many children and how many adults swam at the public pool that day?​

Answers

Answer:

31 children and 290 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adults and c = number of children.

a + c = 321

2a + 1.75c = 634.25

Multiply both sides of the the first equation by -2 and add it to the second equation.

         -2a -     2c = -642

(+)       2a + 1.75c = 634.25

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

                 -0.25c = -7.75

Divide both sides by -0.25

c = 31

Use the first equation to find a.

a + c = 321

Substitute 31 for c.

a + 31 = 321

Subtract 31 from both sides.

a = 290

Answer: 31 children and 290 adults

120 children and 388 adults bought tickets for the swimming pool
Explanation:
Create two simultanous equations:
Let c stand for the number of children that bought a ticket, and a stand for the number of adults that bought a ticket, you get your first equation, being
c
+
a
=
508
then, you now create a second equation for the prices of the tickets.
(price of childrens tickets)(number of children that swam)+(price of adults tickets)(number of adults that swam) = total money collected
so:
1.75
c
+
2.25
a
=
1083.00

now we still know, that
a
=
508

c

so we can substitute it into the second formula
1.75
c
+
2.25
(
508

c
)
=
1083

now its just simple algebra
1.75
c
+
1143

2.25
c
=
1083

60
=
0.5
c
so:
c
=
120
now we know, that 120 children went to the swimming pool.
and we still have the formula from before:
a
=
508

c
so
a
=
388

A game-show spinner has these odds of stopping on particular dollar values: 40% for $5, 25% for $100, 20% for $500, and 15% for $1000. What are the odds of a player winning $5 or $100?

Answers

Answer:

13÷ 23

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the odds of player winning is shown below;

For $5 it is 40%

And, for $100 it is 25%

so for total it is

= 40% + 25%

= 65%

And, the total percentage is 100%

So, the odds in favor is

65:100

13:20

Now for winning it would be 13÷ 23

The life of light bulbs is distributed normally. The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 590 hours. Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 605 hours. Round your answer to four decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

0.8413 = 84.13% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 605 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

The standard deviation of the lifetime is 15 hours and the mean lifetime of a bulb is 590 hours.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 15, \mu = 590[/tex]

Find the probability of a bulb lasting for at most 605 hours.

This is the pvalue of Z when X = 605. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{605 - 590}{15}[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex]

[tex]Z = 1[/tex] has a pvalue of 0.8413

0.8413 = 84.13% probability of a bulb lasting for at most 605 hours.
