The number of hours per week that the television is turned on is determined for each family in a sample. The mean of the data is 38 hours and the median is 34.2 hours. Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours. Step 2 of 5 : Approximately how many families are in the sample? Round your answer to the nearest integer.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentile meaning:

When a value V is said to be in the xth percentile of a set, x% of the values in the set are lower than V and (100-x)% of the values in the set are higher than V.

Twenty-four of the families in the sample turned on the television for 23 hours or less for the week. The 14th percentile of the data is 23 hours.

This means that 24 is 14% of the total number of families.

Approximately how many families are in the sample?

Using a rule of three.

24 - 0.14

x - 1

0.14x = 24

x = 24/0.14

x = 171.4

Rounding to the nearest integer

There are approximately 171 families in the sample.

According to a report released by CIBC entitled "Women Entrepreneurs: Leading the Charge," the average age for Canadian businesswomen in 2008 was 41. In the report, there was some indication that researchers believed that this mean age will increase. Suppose now, a few years later, business researchers in Canada want to test to determine if, indeed, the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased. The researchers randomly sample 97 Canadian businesswomen and ascertain that the sample mean age is 43.4. From past experience, it is known that the population standard deviation is 8.95. Test to determine if the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased using a 1% level of significance. What is the p-value for this test? What is the decision? If the null hypothesis is rejected, is the result substantive?

Answers

Answer:

We conclude that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that according to a report released by CIBC entitled "Women Entrepreneurs: Leading the Charge," the average age for Canadian businesswomen in 2008 was 41.

The researchers randomly sample 97 Canadian businesswomen and ascertain that the sample mean age is 43.4. From past experience, it is known that the population standard deviation is 8.95.

Let [tex]\mu[/tex] = mean age of Canadian businesswomen.

So, Null Hypothesis, [tex]H_0[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] [tex]\leq[/tex] 41      {means that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has decreased or remained same}

Alternate Hypothesis, [tex]H_A[/tex] : [tex]\mu[/tex] > 41     {means that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample z-test statistics because we know about population standard deviation;

                               T.S. =  [tex]\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }[/tex]  ~ N(0,1)

where, [tex]\bar X[/tex] = sample mean age of Canadian businesswomen = 43.4

             [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation = 8.95

             n = sample of Canadian businesswomen = 97

So, the test statistics  =  [tex]\frac{43.4-41}{\frac{8.95}{\sqrt{97} } }[/tex]

                                     =  2.64

The value of z test statistic is 2.64.

Also, P-value of the test statistics is given by;

             P-value = P(Z > 2.64) = 1 - P(Z < 2.64)

                           = 1 - 0.99585 = 0.00415

Now, at 1% significance level the z table gives critical value of 2.33 for right-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of z as 2.64 > 2.33, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which we reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean age of Canadian businesswomen has increased.

A solid lies between planes perpendicular to the​ x-axis at x=0 and x=12. The​ cross-sections perpendicular to the axis on the interval 0≤x≤12 are squares with diagonals that run from the parabola y=-2√x to the parabola y=2√x. Find the volume of the solid.

Answer:

576

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of diagonal square:

[tex] D = 2\sqrt{x} - (-2\sqrt{x}) [/tex]

[tex] D = 4\sqrt{x} [/tex]

Here, the diagonal is the hypotenus of a right angle triangle, with leg S, where the square has a side of length S.

Using Pythagoras theorem:

[tex] S^2 + S^2 = D^2 [/tex]

[tex] S^2 + S^2 = (4\sqrt{x})^2 [/tex]

[tex] 2S^2 = 16x [/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex] S^2 = 8x [/tex]

Thus,

Area, A = S² = 8x

Take differential volume, dx =

dV = Axdx

dV = 8xdx

Where limit of solid= 0≤x≤12

Volume of solid, V:

V =∫₀¹² dV

V = 8 ∫₀¹² xdx

V = [4x²]₀¹²

V = 4 (12)²

V = 12 * 144

= 576

Volume of solid = 576

The five methods were traditional lecture and discussion, programmed textbook instruction, programmed text with lectures, computer instruction, and computer instruction with lectures. 45 students were randomly assigned, 9 to each method. After completing the course, students took a 1-hour exam. (a) What are the hypotheses for evaluating if the average test scores are different for the different teaching methods?

Answers

Answer:

The null hypothesis is that all the different teaching methods have the same average test scores.

H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5

The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the teaching methods have a different mean.

Ha: at least one mean is different. (μ1 ≠ μi)

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis (H0) tries to show that no significant variation exists between variables or that a single variable is no different than its mean. While an alternative Hypothesis (Ha) attempt to prove that a new theory is true rather than the old one. That a variable is significantly different from the mean.

For the case above, let μ represent the average test scores for the teaching methods:

The null hypothesis is that all the different teaching methods have the same average test scores.

H0: μ1 = μ2 = μ3 = μ4 = μ5

The alternative hypothesis is that at least one of the teaching methods have a different mean.

Ha: at least one mean is different. (μ1 ≠ μi)

Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

1) Estimated slope = b₁ = 0.215

2) Estimated y-intercept = b₀ = -4.185

3) Not all the points predicted fall on the same straight line, but the model gives a close to ideal estimate of the line of best fit.

4) The estimated value of y when x=46 is 5.705

5) The value of the dependent variable y^ at x=0 is -4.185

6) The coefficient of determination = 0.951

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, we apply regression analysis

y = b₀ + b₁x

Price in Dollars | 23 | 34 | 40 | 46 | 47

Number of Bids | 1 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 7

For this question, we want to predict the number of bids (dependent variable, y), given the list price of the item (independent variable, x)

So, running the analysis on a spreadsheet application, like excel, the table of parameters is obtained and presented in the first attached image to this solution.

Σxᵢ = sum of all the independent variables (sum of all the list prices)

Σyᵢ = sum of all the dependent variables (sum of all the number of bids in the table)

Σxᵢyᵢ = sum of the product of each dependent variable and its corresponding independent variable

Σxᵢ² = sum of the square of each independent variable (list prices)

Σyᵢ² = sum of the square of each dependent variable (number of bids)

n = number of variables = 5

The scatter plot and the line of best fit is presented in the second attached image to this solution

Then the regression analysis is then done

Slope; m = b₁ = [n×Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)×(Σyᵢ)] / [nΣxᵢ² - (∑xi)²]

Intercept b: b₀ = [Σyᵢ - m×(Σxᵢ)] / n

Mean of x = (Σxᵢ)/n

Mean of y = (Σyᵢ) / n

Sample correlation coefficient r: r =

[n*Σxᵢyᵢ - (Σxᵢ)(Σyᵢ)] ÷ {√([n*Σxᵢ² - (Σxᵢ)²][n*Σyᵢ² - (Σyᵢ)²])}

And -1 ≤ r ≤ +1

All of these formulas are properly presented in the third attached image to this answer

The table of results; mean of x, mean of y, intercept, slope, regression equation and sample coefficient is presented in the fourth attached image to this answer.

Hence, the regression equation is

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

y = b₀ + b₁x

Intercept = b₀ = -4.185

Slope = b₁ = 0.215

And the regression coefficient = 0.951 (Which is very close to 1 and indicates statistic significance)

Hence, we can use this answer obtained to answer the questions attached

1) Find the estimated slope.

Estimated slope = b₁ = 0.215

2) Find the estimated y-intercept.

Estimated y-intercept = b₀ = -4.185

3) Determine if the statement "All points predicted by the linear model fall on the same line" is true or false.

Taking a few of sample data

x = 23 when y = 1

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

y = -4.185 + 0.215 (23) = 0.76 ≈ 1

x = 34, y = 3

y = -4.185 + 0.215 (34) = 3.125 ≈ 3

Hence, it is evident that not all the points predicted fall on the same straight line, but the model gives a close to ideal estimate of the line of best fit.

4) Find the estimated value of y when x=46.

The linear model is

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

when x = 46

y = -4.185 + 0.215(46) = 5.705

5) Determine the value of the dependent variable y^ at x=0.

y = -4.185 + 0.215x

when x = 0

y = -4.185 + 0.215(0) = -4.185

6) Find the value of the coefficient of determination.

The coefficient of determination = regression coefficient = 0.951 (as calculated above)
