A study was conducted in order to estimate ?, the mean number of weekly hours that U.S. adults use computers at home. Suppose a random sample of 81 U.S. adults gives a mean weekly computer usage time of 8.5 hours and that from prior studies, the population standard deviation is assumed to be ? = 3.6 hours.
A similar study conducted a year earlier estimated that ?, the mean number of weekly hours that U.S. adults use computers at home, was 8 hours. We would like to test (at the usual significance level of 5%) whether the current study provides significant evidence that this mean has changed since the previous year.
Using a 95% confidence interval of (7.7, 9.3), our conclusion is that:
a. the current study does provide significant evidence that the mean number of weekly hours has changed over the past year, since 8 falls outside the confidence interval.
b. the current study does not provide significant evidence that the mean number of weekly hours has changed over the past year, since 8 falls outside the confidence interval.
c. the current study does provide significant evidence that the mean number of weekly hours has changed over the past year, since 8 falls inside the confidence interval.
d. the current study does not provide significant evidence that the mean number of weekly hours has changed over the past year, since 8 falls inside the confidence interval.
e. None of the above. The only way to reach a conclusion is by finding the p-value of the test.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. the current study does not provide significant evidence that the mean number of weekly hours has changed over the past year, since 8 falls inside the confidence interval.

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean was of 8 hours, test if it has changed:

At the null hypothesis, we test if it has not changed, that is, the mean is still of 8, so:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 8[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if it has changed, that is, the mean is different of 8, so:

[tex]H_1: \mu \neq 8[/tex]

Using a 95% confidence interval of (7.7, 9.3), our conclusion is that:

8 is part of the confidence interval, which means that the study does not provide evidence that the mean has changed, and the correct answer is given by option d.

The equation models the same quadratic relationship as function f(x) = 2x^2 - 12x + 11 will be 2(x-3)²-7.Option B is correct.

What is the equation?

An equation is a statement that two expressions, which include variables and/or numbers, are equal. In essence, equations are questions, and efforts to systematically find solutions to these questions have been the driving forces behind the creation of mathematics.

It is given that, the function is,

f(x) = 2x^2 - 12x + 11

We have to find the equation models the same quadratic relationship as the given function,

⇒2x²-12x+11

Take common 2 in the complete equation,

⇒2(x²-6x+11/2)

Add and subtract 9 from the complete equation,

⇒2(x²-6x+9-9+11/2)

Rearrange the equation as,

⇒2[(x-3)²-(7/2)]

⇒2(x-3)²-7

Thus, the equation models the same quadratic relationship as function f(x) = 2x^2 - 12x + 11 will be 2(x-3)²-7.Option B is correct.

The measurement of the radius of the end of a log is found to be 9 inches, with a possible error of 1/2 inch. Use differentials to approximate the possible propagated error in computing the area of the end of the log.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\pm 9in^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Radius of end of a log, r= 9 in

Error, [tex]\Delta r=\pm 1/2[/tex]in

We have to find the error in computing the area of the end of the log by using differential.

Area of end of the log, A=[tex]pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dr}=2\pi r[/tex]

[tex]\frac{dA}{dr}=2\pi (9)=18\pi in^2[/tex]

Now,

Approximate error in area

[tex]dA=\frac{dA}{dr}(\Delta r)[/tex]

Using the values

[tex]dA=18\pi (\pm 1/2)[/tex]

[tex]\Delta A\approx dA=\pm 9in^2[/tex]

Hence, the possible propagated error in computing the area of the end of the log[tex]=\pm 9in^2[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]A = (254.34 \pm 28.26) in^2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

radius, r = 9 inches

error = 0.5 inch

The area of the end is

A = 3.14 x r x r = 3.14 x 9 x 9 = 254.34 in^2

[tex]A = \pi r^2\\\\\frac{dA}{dr}=2\pi r\\dA = 2 pi r dr \\\\dA = 2 \times 3.14\times 9\times 0.5 = 28.26[/tex]

So, the area is given by

[tex]A = (254.34 \pm 28.26) in^2[/tex]

In a certain town, 25% of people commute to work by bicycle. If a person is selected randomly from the town, what are the odds against selecting someone who commutes by bicycle?

1:3

3:1

1:4

3:4

Answers

Answer: Choice B)   3:1

=============================================================

Explanation:

Consider a very small town of only 4 people.

If 1 person bikes to work, then 1/4 = 0.25 = 25% of the population commutes by bicycle. We see that the remaining 4-1 = 3 people don't travel by bike.

The odds against selecting someone who uses their bike to get to work is 3:1 which is why the answer is choice B

We list the number of people we don't want first, and then the number of people we do want (those who use a bike). A colon separates the two values to form the odds ratio.

We can say "3:1" as "3 to 1". It means we're 3 times more likely to select someone we don't want vs someone we do want. The odds are against the bike person which is why the value we don't want is listed first.

In contrast, if your teacher asked "what are the odds in favor of selecting someone who commutes by bicycle?" then the answer would be 1:3. We simply swap the positions of what we set up earlier.

Answer b is the correct answer. 3.1

- Blake bought a motorcycle for $550 last year and sold it for $330 this year. What is his sale
price as a percentage of his purchase price?

Answers

Answer:

The sale price was 60% of the purchase price.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Blake bought a motorcycle for $ 550 last year and sold it for $ 330 this year, to determine what is his sale price as a percentage of his purchase price, the following calculation must be performed:

550 = 100

330 = X

330 x 100/550 = X

33000/550 = X

60 = X

Therefore, the sale price was 60% of the purchase price.

The volume of a boys' basketball is 434 cubic inches. Dan would like to get a ball

for his son?
A 9.4 inches
B 4.7 inches
C 3.7 inches
D 7.4 inches

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is A. 9.4 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the volume of a boys' basketball is 434 cubic inches, and Dan would like to get a ball with half the volume for his son, to determine what is the diameter of the ball that Dan will buy for his son, the following calculation has to be done, knowing that the volume of a sphere is four thirds multiplied by pi multiplied by the radius cubed:

4/3 x 3.14 x X ^ 3 = 434

4.186 x X ^ 3 = 434

X ^ 3 = 434 / 4.186

X = 3√ 103.662

X = 4.7

In turn, since the radius of a sphere is equal to half its diameter, the diameter of the basketball is 9.4 inches (4.7 x 2).

The room numbers of two adjacent classrooms are two consecutive odd numbers. If their sum is 860, find the classroom numbers

Answers

Answer:

429 & 431

Step-by-step explanation:

Consecutive numbers are numbers that come right after the other.

Let x = first room number

[tex]x+x+2=860\\2x+2=860\\2x=858\\x=429\\\\(429) + 2 = 431[/tex]

Therefore, the two room numbers are 429 and 431.

I know that there are two room numbers, and they are both odd numbers. They both add up to 860. Therefore, I decided to subtract 860 by 2. This will give me an even number. 430 is the even number. I decided to add 1 to 430 to give me an odd number. Then, I subtracted 431 from 860 to give me 429. Therefore, the two numbers are 429 and 431.
