A salesman who is on the road visiting clients thinks that, on average, he drives the same distance each day of the week. He keeps track of his mileage for several weeks and discovers that he averages 122 miles on Mon- days, 203 miles on Tuesdays, 176 miles on Wednesdays, 181 miles on Thursdays, and 108 miles on Fridays. He wonders if this evidence contradicts his belief in a uni- form distribution of miles across the days of the week. Explain why it is not appropriate to test his hypothesis using the chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The conditions are not met.

Step-by-step explanation:

The conditions for the chi square test for goodness of fit are

1) the sample is a random sample

2) the variable under study is categorical

3) all expected value of the number of sample observations are greater or equal to 5.

A)The observations must be independent

B) for 2 categories the expected values must be at least 5

C) for the 3 categories the expected values must be at least 1 and no more than 20% may be smaller than 5

The observations given may not be independent  i.e  have equal chances of occurrences or are maybe dependent on each other in the sense that there maybe a limit for his traveling mileage or the a limit for petrol ( fuel ) usage . So if he is required to drive 500 miles in a week each day mileage depends on the other day mileage .

Also we are given the information that keeps track of his mileage for several weeks, but we are not sure if several   refers to more than 5 .

As both conditions are not clearly satisfied it is not appropriate to test his hypothesis using the chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

The sample must also be a random sample.

Here he has taken the mean of all the days.

Last year Tyler used 60 feet of fencing to enclose a rectangular garden with an area of 200 ft². This year Tyler plans to use 120 feet of fencing to enclose a garden similar in shape. What will be the area of the garden?

Answers

Answer:

Area of new garden = 800 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Old fencing = Parameter of old garden = 60 ft

Area of old garden = 200 ft

Find:

Area of new garden if Parameter of new garden is 120 ft

Computation:

Assume;

Length of old garden = l

Width of old garden = b

So,

2[l + b] = 60

l + b = 30

l = 30 - b

Area of old garden = 200 ft

l x b = 200

So,

(30 - b)b = 200

b² - 30b + 200 = 0

b² - 20b - 10b + 200

b(b-20) - 10(b-20)

(b-20)(b-10)

So,

Width of old garden = 10 ft

Length of old garden = 20 ft

New parameter is double

So,

Width of new garden = 10 x 2 = 20 feet

Length of old garden = 20 x 2 = 40 feet

Area of new garden = l x b

Area of new garden = 20 x 40

Area of new garden = 800 ft²

PLEASE HELP SOON

Answers

Multiply the average by number of people:

84.5 x 4 = 338

This means the total of the 4 grades need to equal 338

To find Jonathan’s grade subtract the other 3 grades from 338:

338 - 86 - 92 -70 = 90

Jonathan’s grade was 90

To buy a PS5 bundle, Amir borrowed $850 for 2 years at a simple interest rate of 2.5%. How much did he have to pay back in all? A.$42.50 B.85.00 C.$850 D.$892.50

Answers

Answer:

d.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D. $892.50

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find out the interest:

850 * 2.5% = 21.25

Since this is 2 years we multiply the interest by 2.

21.25 * 2 = 42.50

Now we add the interest with the amount borrowed.

850 + 42.50 = $892.50

So, the answer is $892.50 in total.

Hope this helps! :)

10 POINTS!!! NO LINKS!! I WILL REPORT BUT PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME The table below shows the number of students in four schools with grade
point averages in various ranges. The grade point averages of the students in
which school represent a U-shaped distribution?

Answers

Answer:

School C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is school C. A u-shaped distribution would have to have values that when plotted, make a "u". In this case, the first and last values have to be the highest, the second and fourth values have to be in the "middle" and the third value has to be at the bottom. This is the case for school C.

Answer:

B. School C

Step-by-step explanation:

Having a U-shaped distribution means that the school would have the least number in the middle value/values and the most at the ends.

School C exhibits this trend because it has the most on the outermost ranges (82 for between 1.5 and 2, and 78 for between 3.5 and 4.0), as well as the least number for the middle value (26 for 2.5-3.0

The numbers inbetween also follow the trend, as you can see if you read down the column of school C, the numbers decrease as you get to 2.5-3.0 and increase again to 4.0

A whole set of birdfeeders are designed using conservation of Angular Momentum to spin when a squirrel jumps on them. This can throw the squirrel off (though not all squirrels give up that easily - see this video for an example). A bird, landing, doesn't cause the same problem.

Initially the bird feeder is not rotating at all, but starts rotating when the squirrel lands on the outer edge (at the same radius as described above).
