Two samples each of size 20 are taken from independent populations assumed to be normally distributed with equal variances. The first sample has a mean of 43.5 and standard deviation of 4.1 while the second sample has a mean of 40.1 and standard deviation of 3.2. A researcher would like to test if there is a difference between the population means at the 0.05 significance level. What can the researcher conclude?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]t=\frac{(43.5 -40.1)-(0)}{3.678\sqrt{\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}}}=2.923[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are

[tex]df=20+20-2=38[/tex]

And the p value is given by:

[tex]p_v =2*P(t_{38}>2.923) =0.0058[/tex]

Since the p value for this cae is lower than the significance level of 0.05 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true means for this case are significantly different

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have two independent samples from two normal distributions with equal variances we are assuming that  

[tex]\sigma^2_1 =\sigma^2_2 =\sigma^2[/tex]

And the statistic is given by this formula:

[tex]t=\frac{(\bar X_1 -\bar X_2)-(\mu_{1}-\mu_2)}{S_p\sqrt{\frac{1}{n_1}+\frac{1}{n_2}}}[/tex]

Where t follows a t distribution with [tex]n_1+n_2 -2[/tex] degrees of freedom and the pooled variance [tex]S^2_p[/tex] is given by this formula:

[tex]S^2_p =\frac{(n_1-1)S^2_1 +(n_2 -1)S^2_2}{n_1 +n_2 -2}[/tex]

The system of hypothesis on this case are:

Null hypothesis: [tex]\mu_1 = \mu_2[/tex]

Alternative hypothesis: [tex]\mu_1 \neq \mu_2[/tex]

We have the following data given:

[tex]n_1 =20[/tex] represent the sample size for group 1

[tex]n_2 =20[/tex] represent the sample size for group 2

[tex]\bar X_1 =43.5[/tex] represent the sample mean for the group 1

[tex]\bar X_2 =40.1[/tex] represent the sample mean for the group 2

[tex]s_1=4.1[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for group 1

[tex]s_2=3.2[/tex] represent the sample standard deviation for group 2

First we can begin finding the pooled variance:

[tex]\S^2_p =\frac{(20-1)(4.1)^2 +(20 -1)(3.2)^2}{20 +20 -2}=13.525[/tex]

And the deviation would be just the square root of the variance:

[tex]S_p=3.678[/tex]

The statistic is givne by:

[tex]t=\frac{(43.5 -40.1)-(0)}{3.678\sqrt{\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}}}=2.923[/tex]

The degrees of freedom are

[tex]df=20+20-2=38[/tex]

And the p value is given by:

[tex]p_v =2*P(t_{38}>2.923) =0.0058[/tex]

Since the p value for this cae is lower than the significance level of 0.05 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true means for this case are significantly different

Answer 2

Using the t-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the sample, it is found that the researcher can conclude that there is a difference between the population means at the 0.05 significance level.

What are the hypothesis tested?

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if there is no difference, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if there is a difference, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu_1 - \mu_2 \neq 0[/tex]

What is the mean and the standard error of the distribution of differences?

For each sample, we have that they are given by

[tex]\mu_1 = 43.5, s_1 = \frac{4.1}{\sqrt{20}} = 0.9168[/tex]

[tex]\mu_2 = 40.2, s_2 = \frac{3.2}{\sqrt{20}} = 0.7155[/tex]

Hence, for the distribution of differences, the mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\overline{x} = \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 43.5 - 40.2 = 3.3[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_1^2 + s_2^2} = \sqrt{0.9168^2 + 0.7155^2} = 1.163[/tex]

What is the test statistic?

It is given by:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}[/tex]

In which [tex]\mu = 0[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, hence:

[tex]t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}[/tex]

[tex]t = \frac{3.3 - 0}{1.163}[/tex]

[tex]t = 2.84[/tex]

What is the decision?

Considering a two-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is different of a value, with a significance level of 0.05 and 20 + 20 - 2 = 38 df, the critical value is of [tex]|z^{\ast}| = 2.0244[/tex].

Since the absolute value of the test statistic is greater than the critical value, it is found that the researcher can conclude that there is a difference between the population means at the 0.05 significance level.

Answers

Answer:

Because if it is halfway, that means

halfway=1/2

1/2=1/2 of 54

54/2 or 1/2 of 54=27

PLS MARK ME BRAINLIEST I NEED IT PLEASE

The center of the sign will be 27 feet apart from both ends of the bridge.

Given that,
A footbridge has a span of 54 feet. A sign is to be placed exactly halfway across the bridge. How far will the center of the sign be from each end of the bridge is to be determined.

What is arithmetic?

In mathematics, it deals with numbers of operations according to the statements. There are four major arithmetic operators, addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division,

Here,

Since the bridge is 54 feet long,
Now at the center of the bridge, a sign is placed,
So the distance of sign from both ends is equal to half of the total length of the bridge. i.e.
= 54 / 2
= 27

Thus, the center of the sign will be 27 feet apart from both ends of the bridge.

Inverse of f(x)

               [tex]f^{l} (x) = \frac{8 x}{3-x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation:-

Step(i):-

Given the function

                        [tex]f(x) = \frac{3 x}{8+x}[/tex]

Given function is one-one and onto function

Hence f(x) is bijection function

                   [tex]y = f(x) = \frac{3 x}{8+x}[/tex]

now cross multiplication, we get

            ( 8+x)y = 3 x

             8 y + x y = 3 x

             8 y = 3 x - x y

taking Common 'x' we get

            x (3 - y) = 8 y

                   [tex]x = \frac{8 y}{3-y}[/tex]

Step(ii):-

The inverse function

                 [tex]x = \frac{8 y}{3-y} = f^{l}(y)[/tex]

The inverse function of x

                  [tex]f^{l}(x) = \frac{8 x}{3-x}[/tex]

Final answer:-

State the hypotheses. The first step is to state the null hypothesis and an alternative hypothesis.

Null hypothesis: μNew< μOld

Alternative hypothesis: μNew > μOld

Note that these hypotheses constitute a one-tailed test. The null hypothesis will be rejected if the mean difference between sample means is too small.

Formulate an analysis plan. For this analysis, the significance level is 0.05. Using sample data, we will conduct a two-sample t-test of the null hypothesis.

Analyze sample data. Using sample data, we compute the standard error (SE), degrees of freedom (DF), and the t statistic test statistic (t).

[tex]SE=\sqrt{\frac{S_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{S_2^2}{n_2} } \\\\SE=4.29[/tex]

DF = 31

[tex]t = \frac{(x_1-x_2)-d}{SE} \\\\t = - 0.4997[/tex]

where s1 is the standard deviation of sample 1, s2 is the standard deviation of sample 2, n1 is the size of sample 1, n2 is the size of sample 2, x1 is the mean of sample 1, x2 is the mean of sample 2, d is the hypothesized difference between population means, and SE is the standard error.

The observed difference in sample means produced a t statistic of - 0.499. We use the t Distribution Calculator to find P(t < - 0.499) = 0.311

Therefore, the P-value in this analysis is 0.311.

Interpret results. Since the P-value (0.311) is greater than the significance level (0.05), we cannot reject the null hypothesis.

From the above test we do have sufficient evidence in the favor of the claim that new method is efficient than the old method.

[tex]\text{Number of Propellers} * 18 \text{ Centimetres}[/tex]

[tex]5 * 18 = 90[/tex]

Josh should need 90 centimetres of wood total to make 5 airplane propellers.

So since josh wants to make 5 airplane propellers and he would need 18 centimeters of wood for each propeller. He would need 90cm of wood. When I was younger I would just add. For this problem I would just do this. 18+18+18+18+18=90. I would suggest doing this if your child isn’t very good a multiplication. I’m sorry if this is wrong or something it’s been 7 years since I have been to the 5th grade.
