The amounts of vitamin C (in milligrams) for 100g (3.57 ounces) of various randomly selected fruits and vegetables are listed. Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the standard deviation differs from 12 mg? Use alpha = 0.10. Use a graphing calculator

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The values are missing in the question. They are : 16.3,12.8,13,32.2,28.1,34.4,46.4,53,15.4,18.2

Step-by-step explanation:

16.3,12.8,13,32.2,28.1,34.4,46.4,53,15.4,18.2

We calculate sample mean and std deviation from given data.

Sample Mean, [tex]$ {\overset{-}X} =\frac{\Sigma (X)}{n} $[/tex]   =269.8/10=26.98

Sample Variance, [tex]$s^2= \frac{\Sigma(X-{\overset{-}X})^2}{(n-1)}$[/tex]    =1859.496/9=206.610667

Sample std dev,s=[tex]$\sqrt{s^2}$[/tex]=√206.610667≈14.373958

We want to test two tailed hypothesis:

[tex]$H_0$[/tex] : σ=12

[tex]$H_2$[/tex] : σ≠12

Given: s=14.373958⇒ [tex]$s^2$[/tex] =206.610667,n=10

Significance level, a=0.1 Degrees of freedom, df=n-1=9

Since this is two tailed test, we need area of α=0.1 on either side of critical value. This means area of 0.05 on right of positive critical value.

Critical values are given by [tex]$ X_{1-\alpha/2}^2 =X_{0.95}^2 \text{ and}\ X_{1-\alpha/2}^2 =X_{0.95}^2 $[/tex]  with 9 degrees of freedom.

We can use chi-square table or following excel commands:

CHISQ. INV(0.95,9)=3.32511284307

CHISQ. INV (0.05,9)=16.9189776046

Critical Values, [tex]$X_L^2$[/tex]=3.325  and [tex]$X_R^2$[/tex]=16.919

Since this is two tailed test, the decision rule or rejection criteria is:

Reject null hypothesis if test statistic is less than or equal to left critical value OR more than or equal to right critical value, i.e,

Reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex]   if [tex]$x^2$[/tex]≤3.325  OR [tex]$x^2$[/tex]≥16.919

Test statistic is given by [tex]$X^2=\frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2}$[/tex] =((9)*206.610667)/144=12.913167    

Test statistic, [tex]$x^2$[/tex]=12.913

since test statistic is between two critical values, we (do not reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex]) (i.e, we fail to reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex].

Conclusion: There is (not sufficient) evidence to conclude that standard deviation is not equal to 12 .

Alternatively, we can use p-value approach. The decision rule or rejection criteria is: reject null hypothesis if p-value is less than or equal to significance level (α), i.e, reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex] if p-value ≤0.1

P-value is twice the (smaller) tail area of test statistic because this is two tailed test. We can use excel function to find this. 2*M IN (CHISQ.DIST (12.913167,9,  TRUE ) 1-CHISQ.DIST 12.913167,9,  TRUE ) =0.333149809868

P-value =0.3331

since p-value is greater than significance level (α),we (do not reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex]) (i.e, we fail to reject [tex]$H_0$[/tex]).

Conclusion: There is (not sufficient) evidence to conclude that standard deviation is different from 12 .

Which of these distributions is most likely to show data collected while studying the number of the plates people use while eating at an all you can eat buffet explain your reasoning

Answers

Answer: The second distribution.

Step-by-step explanation:

We should to expect to see a large density for the lowest number of plates (because is more common to eat 1, 2 or 3 plates than more)

For example, in the first distribution, we can see a normal distribution with a mean of 6.

This does not really make sense, because 6 plates is really a lot.

The third distribution has two peaks, one at 1 plate that has a lot of sense, and another at 10 plates, so this also does not have really a lot of sense (again, 10 plates is really a lot)

The fourth distribution seems to be even for all the number of plates, which would say that there is almost the same number of customers that eat 1 or 2 plates than the number that eats 9 or 10. This does not seem really logical, so we can assume that this is incorrect.

The second distribution is the correct one, because we see a larger density at a smaller number of plates (with a maximum at 2 plates) and the number of customers starts decreasing as the number of plates decreases (in this case, we can see that no one ordered more than 9 plates, which makes a lot of sense)

=d

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The question lacks the required diagram. Find the diagram attached below;

According to the first triangle, taking 30° as the reference angle, the opposite side of the triangle will be 5 and the adjacent will be the unknown side "b"

According to SOH, CAH, TOA;

tanθ = opposite/adjacent (using TOA)

Given;

θ = 30°, opposite = 5 and adjacent = b

tan30° = 5/b

b = 5/tan30°

b = 5/(1/√3)

b = 5*√3/1

b = 5√3

According to the 45° triangle, the opposite side of the triangle will be d and the hypotenuse will be 7

Using SOH;

sinθ = opposite/hypotenuse

Given;

θ = 45°, opposite = d and adjacent = 7

sin45° = d/7

d = 7sin45°

d = 7(1/√2)

d = 7/√2

Rationalize 7/√2

= 7/√2*√2/√2

=7√2/2

Hence the value of d is 7√2/2

An error has been made in subtracting the two polynomials shown in the work below the problem is (6x^2-4x-5)-(3x^2-7x=2)

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

Let's work out the subtraction of the polynomial to find out where the error is and the correct result we should have.

6x² - 4x - 5

- 3x² - 7x + 2

= [6x² - 3x²] [-4x -(-7x)] [-5 -(+2)]

= 3x² + 3x - 7

The error that was made in the subtraction given in the question was that the negative signs before the terms, 7x and 5 were ignored while subtracting.

The sign is very important, it defines the value of the term.

We can choose to solve the problem in another way shown below:

(6x² - 4x - 5) - (3x² - 7x + 2)

Distributive the negative sign in the second polynomial

6x² - 4x - 5 - 3x² + 7x - 2

Combine like terms

6x² - 3x² - 4x + 7x - 5 - 2

3x² + 3x - 7

Answers

Answer:

b) 1.34

Step-by-step explanation:

The z score is used to determine the number of standard deviations by which the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the z score is above the mean while for a negative z score implies that it is below the mean. The z score is given by:

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

For the largest 9%, the score is 100% - 9% = 91% = 0.91

Before each class, I either drink a cup of coffee, a cup of tea, or a cup of water. The probability of coffee is 0.7, the probability of tea is 0.2, and the probability of water is 0.1. If I drink coffee, the probability that the lecture ends early is 0.3. If I drink tea, the probability that the lecture ends early is 0.2. If I drink water, the lecture never ends early. 1) What’s the probability that I drink tea and finish the lecture early? 2) What’s the probability that I finish the lecture early? 3) Given the lecture finishes early, what’s the probability I drank coffee?

Answers

Answer:

1. Probability of drinking tea and finishing the lecture early = 0.2 * 0.2 = 0.04 or 4%

2. Probability of finishing the lecture early = 50% (0.3 + 0.2).

3. Probability of drinking coffee = 0.21 or 21% (0.7 * 0.3)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

            Probability   Early Ending    Expected Probability

Coffee     0.7               0.3                     0.21

Tea          0.2               0.2                    0.04

Water      0.1                

b) The probability of drinking coffee, tea, or water is the chance that the lecturer drinks either coffee or tea or water.  The combined probability of the three actions is always 1.  The expected probability is the weighing of the probabilities with another event, ending the lecture early.  This is obtained by multiplying their respective probabilities.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! | For what values of y does the following equation have no solutions for x? | xy + 5y + 4x + 20=1

Answers

Answer:

  y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for x to see.

  x(y+4) +5y +20 = 1

  x(y +4) = -19 -5y . . . . . subtract 5y+20

  x = (-19 -5y)/(y +4)

x is undefined (no solution) for y = -4.

Answer:

y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

If we look at xy + 5y, we see that both terms share a factor of y. This gives us

                                                   y(x + 5) + 4x + 20 = 1

Similarly, 4x and 20 share a factor of 4, giving us

                                                   y(x + 5) + 4(x + 5) = 1

Now we see that these two terms share a factor of x + 5, so factoring gives us

                                                   (y + 4)(x + 5) = 1

Dividing both sides by y+4 gives us

                                                    x + 5 = 1/(y + 4)

Finally, we subtract both sides by 5 to get

                                                    x = 1/(y + 4) - 5

Thus, since we can not have a 0 in the denominator, we see that if y = -4 then x will have no solution. For any other value of y, we can find the solution for x using this equation.

The local Jazz Club met 50 times last year. At each meeting there were 20 slots on the playlist, with one tune played in each slot. A careful study of the playlists for last year showed that: 40% of the slots were used for tunes that were not played at any other time that year. 45% of the slots were used for tunes that were played just twice. Half of the remaining slots were used for tunes that were played 3 times.There were only 5 other tunes played during the year, and the number of times that these were played was in the ratio (5 : 4 : 3 : 2 : 1).

The total number of slots is given by:

So, the total number of tunes in each slot is 1000.

The total number of remaining tunes is given by:

[tex]=1000-(400+450)[/tex]

= 150

According to the given data half of the remaining tunes were played thrice that is 75 tunes were played thrice and only 5 other tunes were played out of the remaining 75 tunes.

So, the total number of tunes a member will hear is given by:

[tex]=400+\dfrac{450}{2}+\dfrac{75}{3}+5[/tex]

= 655

So, the total number of different tunes will a member who attended all meetings have heard during the year is 655.
