A) Reject H0 if F >
B) For the 0.05 level of significance, is there a difference in the mean difference in the mean number of months before a raise was anted among the four CPA firms?
Answers
Answer:
A) Reject H0 if F > 5.417
B) we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that we do not have sufficient evidence at 0.05 level of significance to support the claim that there is a difference in the mean number of months before a raise was granted among the four CPA firms
Step-by-step explanation:
A) From the table, we can see that we have df1 = 3 and df2 = 15. And we are given a significance level of α = 0.01
We are also given f-value of 1.75
Thus,from the f-distribution table attached at significance level of α = 0.01 and df1 = 3 and df2 = 15, we have;
F-critical = 5.417
Normally, we reject H0 if F > 5.417
But in this case, F is 1.75 < 5.417 and so we conclude that we do not reject H0 at the 0.01 level of significance
B) for 0.05 level of significance, df1 = 3 and df2 = 15, from the 2nd table attached, we have;
F-critical = 3.2874
Again the f-value is less than this critical one.
Thus, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that we do not have sufficient evidence at 0.05 level of significance to support the claim that there is a difference in the mean number of months before a raise was granted among the four CPA firms

Answers
Answer:
distance traveled can be modeled by a linear functionthe car is 260 miles north of townStep-by-step explanation:
a) When the speed is constant, the distance traveled is proportional to the travel time, a linear relationship. The distance traveled can be added to the initial distance to obtain the total distance (from town). This relation is a linear function. It can be modeled by the equation ...
d(t) = 4 + 64t . . . where t is travel time in hours, d(t) is the distance in miles
b) After 4 hours, the distance north of town is ...
d(4) = 4 +64(4) = 260
The car is 260 miles from the town after 4 hours.
Answer: Distance is a function of time. The constant rate of change is 64. Write the equation y = 64x + 22. Substitute 4 in for x to get 278 miles.

If you randomly select a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden," what is the probability that a vowel is randomly selected
Answers
Answer:
12/27
Step-by-step explanation:
Count all letters and all vowels then divide vowels by letters
The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.
What is the probability of an event in an experiment?The probability of any event suppose A, in an experiment is given as:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
How to solve the given question?In the question, we are given an experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden".
We are asked to find the probability that the selected letter is a vowel.
Let the event of selecting a vowel from the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden" be A.
We can calculate the probability of event A by the formula:
P(A) = n/S,
where P(A) is the probability of event A, n is the number of favorable outcomes to event A in the experiment, and S is the total number of outcomes in the experiment.
The number of outcomes favorable to event A (n) = 12 (Number of vowels in the phrase)
The total number of outcomes in the experiment (S) = 27 (Number of letters in the phrase).
Now, we can find the probability of event A as:
P(A) = 12/27 = 4/9
∴ The probability that a vowel is randomly selected in the experiment of selecting a letter from the phrase "Sean wants to eat at Olive Garden", is 4/9.

Write the equations, after translating the graph of y = |x+2|: one unit up,
Answers
Answer:
y = |x + 2| + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Parent Graph: f(x) = a|bx + c| + k
a is vertical stretch/shrink
b is horizontal stretch/shrink
c is horizontal movement left/right
k is vertical movement up/down
Since we are given an equation and we want to move it 1 unit up (vertical movement up), we only manipulate k:
y = |x + 2| + k
k = 1
y = |x + 2| + 1
Answer:
y = |x+2| + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation will be y = |x+2| + 1.
By translating the graph one unit up, the equation will simply change by adding +1 to the graph, outside of the absolute value part.

Complete question :
Anand needs to hire a plumber. He's considering a plumber that charges an initial fee of $65 along with an
hourly rate of $28. The plumber only charges for a whole number of hours. Anand would like to spend no more than $250, and he wonders how many hours of work he can afford.
Let H represent the whole number of hours that the plumber works.
1) Which inequality describes this scenario?
Choose 1 answer:
A. 28 + 65H < 250
B. 28 + 65H > 250
C. 65 + 28H < 250
D. 65 +28H > 250
2) What is the largest whole number of hours that Anand can afford?
Answer:
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford = 6 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following information :
Initial hourly rate = $65
Hourly rate = $28
Number of hours worked (whole number) = H
Maximum budgeted amount to spend = $250
Therefore ;
(Initial charge + total charge in hours) should not be more than $250
$65 + ($28*H) < $250
65 + 28H < 250
Number of hours Anand can afford :
65 + 28H < 250
28H < 250 - 65
28H < 185
H < (185 / 28)
H < 6.61
Sinve H is a whole number, the number of hours he can afford is 6 hours

The state of Georgia is divided up into 159 counties. Consider a population of Georgia residents with mutually independent and equally likely home locations. If you have a group of n such residents, what is the probability that two or more people in the group have a home in the same county
Answers
Answer:
[tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
number of counties = 159
n number of people are mutually independent and equally likely home locations
considering the details given in the question
n ≤ 159
The number of ways for people ( n ) will live in the different counties (159) can be determined as [tex](\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right} )[/tex]
since the residents are mutually independent and equally likely home locations hence there are : [tex]159^{n}[/tex] ways for the residents to live in
therefore the probability = [tex]\frac{159^{n} -(\left \{ {{159} \atop {n}} \right.)*n! ) }{159^{n} }[/tex]
Explain the difference between using the sine ratio to solve for a missing angle in a right triangle versus using the cosecant ratio. You must use complete sentences and any evidence needed (such as an example) to prove your point of view. (10 points)
Answers
Answer:
The sine ratio is the ratio between the opposite side over hypotenuse. The cosecant ratio is the ratio between the hypotenuse over the opposite side, therefore cosecant is the reciprocal of sine.
To find a missing angle using sine, you would need to use the inverse of sine. For example, if the sine was [tex]\frac{30}{40}[/tex], to find the angle you would need to find sin⁻¹ of [tex]\frac{30}{40}[/tex] which is x = sin⁻¹ (0.75). Therefore x equals approximately 49°.

Gail bought 5 pounds of oranges and 2 pounds of bananas for $14. Her husband later bought 3 pounds of oranges and 6 pounds of bananas for $18. What was the cost per pound of the oranges and the bananas?
Answers
Answer:
1 pound of Oranges = $2
1 pound of Bananas = $2
Step-by-step explanation:
O = Oranges
B = Bananas
=> 5o + 2b = 14
=> 2b = 14 - 5o
=> b = 14/2 - 5/2o
=> b = 7 - 2.5o
3o + 6b = 18
=> 3o + 6( 7 - 2.5o ) = 18
=> 3o + 42 - 15o = 18
=> -12o + 42 = 18
=> -12o = -24
=> -o = -2
=> o = 2
One pound of oranges costs $2.
So,
5 (2) + 2b = 14
=> 10 + 2b = 14
=> 2b =4
=> b = 2
One pound of bananas also costs $2.
Cost of banana per pound = 2$

n₁ = 10 n₂ = 10
To find:
coefficient of variation for each of the two samples
Solution:
The formula for calculating coefficient of variation of sample is:
Coefficient of Variation (CV) = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
Calculate Mean for Security Service Company data:
Mean = (Σ x₁) / n₁
= (1.5 + 1.7 + 1.6 + 1.4 + 1.7 + 1.5 + 1.8 + 1.4 + 1.4 + 1.5) / 10
= 15.5 / 10
Mean = 1.55
Calculate Standard Deviation for Security Service Company data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₁ - Mean)²/n₁-1
= √∑(1.5-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.6-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.7-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² + (1.8-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.4-1.55)² + (1.5-1.55)² / 10-1
=√∑ (−0.05)² + (0.15)² + (0.05)² + (−0.15)² + (0.15)² + (−0.05)² + (0.25)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.15)² + (−0.05)² / 10 - 1
= √∑0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 + 0.0625 + 0.0225 + 0.0225 + 0.0025 / 9
= √0.185 / 9
= √0.020555555555556
= 0.14337208778404
= 0.143374
Standard Deviation = 0.143374
Coefficient of Variation for Security Service Company:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.143374 / 1.55) * 100
= 0.09249935 * 100
= 9.249935
CV = 9.2
CV = 9.2%
Calculate Mean for Other Companies data:
Mean = (Σ x₂) / n₂
= (1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.7 + 1.8 + 1.9 + 1.6 + 1.5 + 1.7 + 1.8) / 10
= 17.3 / 10
Mean = 1.73
Calculate Standard Deviation for Other Companies data:
Standard Deviation = √∑(x₂-Mean)²/n₂-1
= √∑[(1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)² + (1.9-1.73)² + (1.6-1.73)² + (1.5-1.73)² + (1.7-1.73)² + (1.8-1.73)²] / 10 - 1

= √∑ (0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0009 + 0.0049 + 0.0289 + 0.0169 + 0.0529 + 0.0009 + 0.0049) / 9
= √(0.161 / 9)
= √0.017888888888889
= 0.13374935098493
= 0.13375
Standard Deviation = 0.13375
Coefficient of Variation for Other Companies:
CV = (Standard Deviation / Mean) * 100%
= (0.13375 / 1.73) * 100
= 0.077312 * 100
= 7.7312
CV = 7.7
CV = 7.7%

[tex] (f/g)(x) = \frac{( x + 1)( 4x³ - 8x - 5)}{x + 1} [/tex]
Simplify
We have
(f/g)(x) = 4x³ - 8x - 5To find (f/g)(2) substitute 2 into (f/g)(x)
That's
(f/g)(2) = 4(2)³ - 8(2) - 5
= 4(8) - 16 - 5
= 32 - 16 - 5
= 11
(f/g)(2) = 11Hope this helps you
What is the period of the function shown in the graph?
Answers
At origin, the value of the function is [tex]0[/tex]
and then it again becomes zero for the first time is at $2$
but the function isn't repeating itself (it's going downwards)
at $x=4$, it's exactly same, hence the period is $4$

Answer:
F. [tex] \frac{3}{2} [/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
[tex] \frac{a + 2b}{b} = \frac{7}{2} [/tex]
Cross multiply:
7b= 2(a +2b)
Expand:
7b= 2a +4b
Bring all common variables to 1 side:
7b -4b= 2a
3b= 2a
divide by 2 on both sides:
[tex] \frac{3}{2} b = a[/tex]
divide by b on both sides:
[tex] \frac{3}{2} = \frac{a}{b} \\ \frac{a}{b} = \frac{3}{2} [/tex]

Two fraction have the same denominator, 8.the some of two fraction is 1/2.if one of the fraction is added to five times the order, the result is 2,find the number.
Answers
Answer:
1/8, 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y represent the two fractions. Then we are given ...
x + y = 1/2
x + 5y = 2
Subtracting the first equation from the second, we get ...
(x +5y) -(x +y) = (2) -(1/2)
4y = 3/2 . . . . . simplify
y = 3/8 . . . . . . divide by 4
x = 1/2 -3/8 = 1/8
The two numbers are 1/8 and 3/8.

Look where the parabola crosses the x axis. This is where the x intercepts are located. The term "x intercept" is the same as "root" and also the term "zero".
A professor graded the final exams and found that the mean score was 70 points. Which of the following can you conclude?
A- All of the above.
B- The median score was 70 points.
C- 50% of the students scored below 70 points.
D- This would be a normal distribution.
Answers
Answer: C) 50% of the students scored below 70%
Step-by-step explanation:
Mean is the average. To find the mean (aka average) you add up all of the scores and divide by the number of tests.
B) The mean can be 70 without any test scoring 70% so B is not true.
A) Since B is not true, then A is not a valid option.
D) We don't know any of the other data so don't know if it is skewed left, skewed right, or normal. Therefore, option D is not true.
C) If the average is 70%, then half received grades above that score and half received grades below that score. So, option C is TRUE!
