the value of t such that the area in the left tail of the t -distribution is 0.05, if the sample size is 48. t is 0.76197086

Consider a t distribution with 7 degrees of freedom. Compute P(-1.29 < t < 1.29)

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) would be the area under the t distribution curve with 7 degrees of freedom between -1.29 and 1.29, that is in the interval (-1.29, 1.29).

This can be done the old style by looking up in a table or by using the technology with a spreadsheet.

In Excel, the function TDIST(x,n,2) with x>0 gives the area outside the interval (-x, x) of the t distribution with n degrees of freedom.

So TDIST(1.29,7,2) gives the area outside (-1.29, 1.29).

If we subtract this value from 1 we get the desired result

Hence  

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29,7,2) = 1 - 0.23802914 = 0.76197086

In OpenOffice Calc, the function is the same replacing “,” with “;”  

That is

P(-1.29 < t < 1.29) = 1 - TDIST(1.29;7;2) = 0.76197086

Answer:

7 km

Step-by-step explanation:

14/2 cm which equals 7km

The equation of the line that includes CD, in slope-intercept form, is: B. y = -4/3x + 2.

To write the equations of two lines that are parallel or perpendicular to each other, recall that parallel lines have the same slope (m), while perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals.

The slope of y = 3/4x - 11 is 3/4. The negative reciprocal of 3/4 is -4/3. Therefore, the slope of AB that is perpendicular to the graph of y = 3/4x - 11 is, m = -4/3.

Since the CD is parallel to AB, then CD will have the same slope of, m = -4/3.

To write the equation of the line that includes CD, substitute m = -4/3 and (a, b) = (-6, 10) into y - b = m(x - a):

y - 10 = -4/3(x + 6)

Rewrite in slope-intercept form:

y - 10 = -4/3x - 8

y = -4/3x - 8 + 10

Putting the above values we get:

[tex]z=\frac{48237-55217}{\sqrt{\frac{19000^2}{120}+\frac{10000^2}{30}}}[/tex]

or, z = -2.7717744...

or, z ≈ -2.772

c) p-value

d) now we will use the p-value to essentially use or reject the the hypothesis.

So the confidence interval of 955 is used for the p-value.

p-value(0.0028) < ∝(0.05)

Hence we will reject the H₀ .

Hence we will conclude that the salaries for the finance majors are significantly lower than the salaries of the business analytics majors.

A confidence interval is a range of estimates for an unknown parameter (CI). The most common confidence level is 95%, but when calculating confidence intervals, other levels, such 90% or 99%, are also occasionally employed.

The confidence level is a measure of how many related CIs over the long run include the actual value of the parameter. For instance, the parameter's true value should be included in 95% of all intervals produced at the 95% confidence level.

The lengths of the right-angled triangle are 6 and 8.

A right-angled triangled is a triangle that has one of its angles equal to 90°. The sum of the other two interior angles is also equal to 90°.

The Pythagoras theorem relates the three sides of a right-angled triangle through a simple equation. According to the Pythagoras theorem,

hypotenuse^2 = base^2 + opposite^2

Let base = b, so opposite = b + 2

So,

10^2 = b^2 + (b+2)^2

100 = b^2 + b^2 + 4b + 4

100 = 2b^2 + 4b + 4

50 = b^2 + 2b + 2

b^2 + 2b - 48 = 0

solving this quadratic equation gives, b = 6 and b = -8. Since length cannot be negative, the base is 6 feet and the opposite is 8 feet.

If the 0.99 probability of completing the project on time, then the scheduled meeting date should he begin working on the project is 2.39 weeks

How to calculate the probability?

In math, the probability can be determined by first knowing the sample space of outcomes of an experiment and then by dividing the number of outcomes of an event by the total number of possible outcomes or sample space.

Here we have given that Doug Casey is in charge of planning and coordinating next spring’s sales management training program for his company.

And we need to find the If Doug wants a 0.99 probability of completing the project on time, how far ahead of the scheduled meeting date should he begin working on the project.

Here we know that the duration of the critical path determines the completion of the whole project.

Therefore, the mean completion time of the project =μ=15

And the the variance of the critical path = sum of the variances of the activities A, B, G, H, and I =0.03+0.44+0.44+0.11+0.03=1.06

Therefore, the standard deviation of the critical path or that of the whole project =σ=√1.06=1.03

Here we know that, if a 0.99 probability of completion is required, then the corresponding Z-score =2.3263

Then the actual completion time corresponding to a Z-score of

=> 2.3263 = μ+(Z×σ) = 15+(2.3263×1.03) = 15+2.39 = 17.39 weeks

Which states that the extra time needed over and above the mean completion time of the project of 15 weeks to have a 0.99 probability of completion =17.39−15=2.39 weeks

Therefore, in order to have a 0.99 probability of completing the project on time, the project should be started 2.39 weeks ahead of the scheduled meeting date.

a) The equation that describes the relation between x and y is y = 8x - 1000

b) They made 8% profit from selling the calendars

c) They will loss 1000 when they sold no calendars.

Given,

Members of student council had a loss of $360 after selling 80 calenders

They made a profit of $600 after selling 200 calenders.

y be the profit or loss

x be the calendars sold

We have to find the following;

a) The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y = mx + b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

We are aware that "y" here stands for the profit or loss and "x" for the quantity of calendars sold.

Then,

According to the exercise, the line passes through these two points:

(80, -360) and (200, 600)

Then,

We can find the slope of the line with the formula;

m = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

m = (-360 - 600) / (80 - 200)

m = -960/-120

m = 8

Now,

We can substitute the slope and one of those points into y = mx + b and solve for "b":

600 = 8 × 200 + b

-b = 1600 - 600

b = -1000

Then,

Substituting values, we get that the equation that describes the relation between the profit and loss and the number of calendars sold, is:

y = 8x - 1000

b) The slope of the line is the profit they made from selling each calendar

Profit = 8

c) The y-intercept is the amount they would have lost if they had sold no calendars:

b = -1000

The odds of selecting 5 cards from a deck of 52 are 52c5. Probability = Maximum outcomes / Possible outcomes for the given circumstance = 52!/47!*5! = 2598960. Now, in poker, the chance of selecting any two numbers from a pool of 13 distinct numbers is 13c2.

Possible poker hands

C(n,r)= C(52,5)

=52!/(5!(52-5!)

=2598960

Hand with pattern

(X,X,Y,Y,Z)

Number of choices for x and y

C(n,r)= C(13,2)

=13!(2!(13-2)!)

=78

Ways to get 2 X's

C(n,r)= C(4,2)= 4!(2!(4-2)!) =6

Similarly, ways to get  2x's is 6

We have 44 choice of occurance for Z

Hands with two pairs =78*44*6*6= 123552

So, Probability of Two pairs is =123552/2598960=0.047539  

P(Two pairs) = 0.0475

How many ways can we choose two pairs in a poker hand?

There are 13 ways to choose the denomination of the first pair, 12 ways to choose the denomination of the second pair, and 4 choices for the remaining card. Thus, there are 13\cdot 12\cdot 4 = 624 ways to choose two pairs in a poker hand.

In poker, a hand is made up of 5 cards from a deck of 52 cards. The different possible hands in poker include a royal flush, straight flush, four of a kind, full house, flush, straight, three of a kind, two pair, and one pair.

In this problem, we are asked to find the probability of getting a hand with two pairs.

To find the probability of two pairs, we first need to find the total number of possible poker hands. This is done using the combination formula C(n,r) where n is the total number of cards (52 in this case) and r is the number of cards needed to make a hand (5 in this case). This gives us a total of 2598960 possible poker hands.

Next, we need to find the number of possible hands with two pairs. A hand with two pairs has a pattern of X,X,Y,Y,Z where X and Y are the ranks of the pairs and Z is the remaining card. There are 13 ranks in a deck of cards (Ace, 2, 3, ..., 10, Jack, Queen, King) and we need to choose 2 of these ranks to be the ranks of the pairs. This can be done in C(13,2) ways, which is 78.

There are 4 cards of each rank in a deck, so there are 6 ways to choose the 2 cards of rank X and 6 ways to choose the 2 cards of rank Y.

Finally, we have 44 choices for the remaining card (Z) because there are 13 ranks and we have already used up 2 ranks for the pairs.

Therefore, the number of possible hands with two pairs is 78*6*6*44 = 123552. The probability of getting a hand with two pairs is then 123552/2598960 = 0.047539 or approximately 0.0475.

Therefore, the final answer is P(Two pairs) = 0.0475.

the α = 0.05 .

let the null hypothesis ,

H₁ : μ ≠ 52 .

the test statistics is : z = (x - μ)/(σ/√n)

the critical value ( rejection region ) : {z : |z| ≥ z₀.₀₂₅ = 1.96 }

Step-by-step explanation: When adding 2 negative numbers, you go farther back left on the number line. (Negative side) So, 4 + 4 = 8, and a negative + a negative = negative, so this results in -4 + (-4) = -8. I hoped this helped!

On solving the provided question, we can that the answer - The distance between two points is the length of a line segment that connects them.

A line is a shape that has no width, depth, or curve in its geometry. It is an item that can be used for a long time. A line can exist in a two-dimensional, three-dimensional, or more dimensional space, but is still a one-dimensional object. A line segment with two endpoints is commonly called a "line".

Main notations:

A plane is a flat, indefinitely long, 2D surface with no thickness. Option 1 is accurate. A point is a precise place. It just has position; it has no length, breadth, or depth. Option 2 is untrue. Collinear points are any two or more points that are situated differently yet are on the same line. Option 3 is untrue. A line has no thickness, is straight (has no bends), and goes in both directions without ending (infinitely). Option 4 is accurate. The length of a line segment that links two places represents their distance. Option 5 is accurate.

Answer:

Therefore, Alvin worked 70 hours, Simon worked 55 hours, and Theodore worked 159 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the number of hours Alvin worked, S be the number of hours Simon worked, and T be the number of hours Theodore worked.
We know that the total number of hours worked is the sum of the hours each person worked, so we can write the equation:A + S + T = 284
We also know that Alvin worked 15 more hours than Simon, so we can write the equation:A = S + 15
We also know that Theodore worked 6 less than three times as many hours as Simon, so we can write the equation:T = 3S - 6
Substituting the second equation into the first equation, we get:
S + S + 15 + 3S - 6 = 284
Combining like terms, we get:5S + 9 = 284
Subtracting 9 from both sides, we get:5S = 275
Dividing both sides by 5, we get:S = 55
Substituting this value into the equation A = S + 15, we get:
A = 55 + 15A = 70
Substituting this value into the equation T = 3S - 6, we get:T = 3 * 55 - 6T = 165 - 6T = 159

Each interval's sample points are at the right ends. sample points :x 1 = 0∘x 2 =08x 3=0 8 is 0°, 8°, 16°

Since the sample points in each interval are right endpoints, we need to find the points that are 8° apart.

The first sample point x1 is 0°. To find the next two sample points, we need to add 8° to the first sample point.

Therefore, the second sample point x2 = 8°, and the third sample point x3 = 16°.

The probability of a negative return if the returns are normally distributed, we can use the mean and standard deviation of the returns and If the distribution is symmetrical but otherwise unknown, it may be more difficult to estimate the probability of a negative return without more information about the shape of the distribution.

To determine how confident we can be that the mean of the given data sample is greater than 40, we would need to perform a statistical test such as a t-test or a z-test to compare the sample mean to the value of 40.

We would need to know the sample size, standard deviation, and any other relevant information about the data to calculate the appropriate test statistic and determine the p-value, which would tell us the probability of observing a sample mean as extreme as the one we obtained if the true population mean was actually 40.

To determine how confident we should be that the portfolio manager will continue to produce positive returns, we would need to analyze the distribution of returns and determine whether it is skewed or symmetrical and whether it follows a normal distribution or a different distribution. If the distribution is skewed or non-normal, it may be more difficult to estimate the probability of positive returns. However, if the distribution is symmetrical and follows a normal distribution, we can use the mean and standard deviation of the returns to calculate the probability of a positive return using the normal distribution.

If the returns of the investment strategy are normally distributed, we can use the mean and standard deviation of the returns to calculate the probability of a negative return using the normal distribution. If the distribution is symmetrical but otherwise unknown, it may be more difficult to estimate the probability of a negative return without more information about the shape of the distribution.
