The American College Testing Corporation has a test called the ACT that is used for admissions to college. The American College Testing Corporation reports that students who attend 2-year colleges in the Midwest United States have an average ACT score of 21.5, with a standard deviation of 3.17. The president of the Minneapolis Community College wonders if students who attend her college have a ACT scores that are significantly different from the ACT scores reported by the American College Teaching Corporation. The president would perform a ___________ test, and use a z-critical value of _____.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Two tailed test

+/-1.96

Step-by-step explanation:

Following this claim, the president would have to perform a two tailed test. Since he wants to know if the Act scores of students in her school are significantly different from what is reported by the ACT corporation.

At a confidence level that is 95%, the level of significance is = 0.05. then the z critical value to be used would be +/- 1.96

21) A consumer group was interested in comparing the operating time of cordless toothbrushes manufactured by two different companies. Group members took a random sample of 18 toothbrushes from Company A and 15 from Company B. Each was charged overnight and the number of hours of use before needing to be recharged was recorded. Company A toothbrushes operated for an average of 119.7 hours with a standard deviation of 1.74 hours; Company B toothbrushes operated for an average of 120.6 hours with a standard deviation of 1.72 hours. The 90% confidence interval is (-1.93, 0.13). The correct interpretation is

Answers

Answer:

We accept H₀ we don´t have evidence of differences between the two toothbrushes

Step-by-step explanation:

Toothbrushes A

Sample mean                    μₐ = 119,7

Standard deviation           sₐ = 1,74

Sample size                        nₐ = 18

Toothbrushes B

Sample mean                    μ₀ = 120,6

Standard deviation           s₀ = 1,72

Sample size                        n₀ = 15

With  CI = 90 %      CI = ( -1,93 ; 0,13 ) that s the acceptance region for H₀

Test hypothesis    is      

H₀          μₐ =   μ₀  

Hₐ           μₐ ≠   μ₀  

We need to calculate t(s)  as

t(s) = (  μₐ -  μ₀ ) /Sₓ * √ (1/nₐ) + 81/n₀)

and see if it is insde CI

Sₓ  = (nₐ - 1 ) * sₐ² + ( n₀ - 1 ) * s₀² / nₐ + n₀ - 2

Sₓ  = 17*3,03 + 14*2,96 / 31

Sₓ  = (51,51 + 41,44 )/ 31

Sₓ = 2,998

t(s) = 0,9 / 2,998*√(1/18) + (1/15)

t(s) = 0,9 / 1,04

t(s) = 0,87

which is the correct answer?​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Options B and C are wrong because 0 as a numerator is totally fine as a real solution.

In Option A,

15(x² - 1) = 10(3x - 3)

15x² - 45x + 30 = 0

x² - 3x + 2 = 0

(x - 1)(x - 2) = 0

x = 1 or x = 2.

This is correct as x cannot be 1 (dividing by zero).

In Option D,

(x + 2)(x - 1) = 40

x² + x - 42 = 0

(x - 6)(x + 7) = 0

x = 6 or x = -7.

In here x = 1 does not even appear in our working so it is not an extraneous solution (even though it is dividing by zero)

Hence the answer is A.

the area of a rectangle is 72cm2, in which the width is twice the length. what are the dimensions

Answers

Answer:

Dimension: 2inches by 4 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Width = 2wice\ Length[/tex]

Required

Determine the dimension.

This is calculated as :

[tex]Area = Length * Width[/tex]

[tex]A = L * W[/tex]

So:

[tex]A=L * 2L[/tex]

[tex]A=2L^2[/tex]

Substitute 72 for A

[tex]72=2L^2[/tex]

Divide bith sodes by 2

[tex]36 = L^2[/tex]

Take square root of both sides

[tex]L = 6[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]Width = 2 * Length[/tex]

Hence:

[tex]LEnhth= 0 * 2[/tex]

[tex]LEnhth= 2[/tex]

Hence, the dimension is: 2 by 3 inches

Answers

Answer:

Following are thew solution to this question:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the complete question in the attached file.

Using formula:

[tex]\text{Margin of error} = \frac{(z \times \sigma) }{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

n = the number of work cycles for 95 confidence interval

z-score = 1.96

So, [tex]\frac{(z \times \sigma)}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex] = [tex]\ Mean \times 0.02[/tex]  

[tex]\frac{(1.96 \times 0.376)}{\sqrt{n}} = 4.416666667 \times 0.02 \\\\\\[AVERAGE(4,4.5,5,4.5,4.5,4) = 4.416666667][/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{(1.96 \times 0.376)}{(4.416666667 \times 0.02)} \\\\[/tex]

     [tex]= 8.342943396\\\\[/tex]

[tex]n = 69.6047045[/tex]

   [tex]= 70[/tex]

Using the sample size formula, the number of samples required is 919.

Standard deviation, σ = 0.376

From the data given :

Mean = (4 + 4.5 + 5 + 4.5 + 4.5 + 4) / 6 = 4.417Standard deviation = 0.376

Using the sample size relation thus:

[tex] n = (\frac{T_{critical}σ}{E})^{2}[/tex]

E = Margin of Error = 5% = 0.05Tcritical at 99%, df = 5 = 4.032 (T distribution table)

Substituting the values into the equation :

[tex] n = (\frac{4.032 \times 0.376 }{0.05})^{2}[/tex]

[tex] n = (\frac{1.516032}{0.05})^{2} = 919.34[/tex]

-3224 base 5 -3434 base 5

Answers

I guess you're asking to compute the difference,

-3224₅ - 3434₅

Ignore the minus signs for now, and consider the sum

3224₅ + 3434₅

In the 5⁰ place (the rightmost digit) we have

4₅ + 4₅ = 8 = 13₅

Carry the 1 to the next place. In the 5¹ place,

2₅ + 3₅ + 1₅ = 6 = 11₅

Carry the 1. In the 5² place,

2₅ + 4₅ + 1₅ = 7 = 12₅

Carry the 1. In the 5³ place,

3₅ + 3₅ + 1₅ = 7 = 12₅

So,

3224₅ + 3434₅ = 12213₅

and hence

-3224₅ - 3434₅ = -12213₅

What is the fourth root of -16/81?​

Answers

Answer:

The fourth root of -16/81, whose result is -0.19, is -0.66.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the fourth root of -16/81, you must first perform this mathematical operation, and then perform the radication of the result of it. Thus, the following process must be carried out:

-16 / 81 = X

-0.19 = X

4√0.19 = -X

0.66 = -X

-0.66 = X

Therefore, the fourth root of -16/81, whose result is -0.19, is -0.66.

kristen and brett found three different deals on the same smart tv they want to figure out which deal is better before tax

1.Original Price: $320
Discount: 15% off

2.Original Price: $349.99
Discount: 75% off

3. Original Price: $360
New Price: $280

Answers

Answer:

Option 2 would be the better deal, as long as they would only pay $ 87.37 for the smart TV.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine which deal is better before taxes, the aforementioned discounts must be made at the original prices and their results compared, through the following calculations:

1)

320 - (320 x 15/100) = X

320 - 48 = X

272 = X

2)

349.49 - (349.49 x 75/100) = X

349.49 - 262.11 = X

87.37 = X

3)

280 = X

 

Therefore, as can be seen, option 2 would be the better deal, as long as they would only pay $ 87.37 for the smart TV.
