Dean Halverson recently read that full-time college students study 20 hours each week. She decides to do a study at her university to see if there is evidence that students study an average of less than 20 hours each week. A random sample of 33 students were asked to keep a diary of their activities over a period of several weeks. It was found that he average number of hours that the 33 students studied each week was 17. 7 hours. The sample standard deviation of 3. 9 hours. Find the p -value. The p -value should be rounded to 4-decimal places

Answers

Answer 1

Using the t-distribution, as we have the standard deviation for the sample, it is found that the p-value is of 0.0009.

What are the hypotheses tested?

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the students study 20 hours, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 20[/tex].

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if they study less than 20 hours, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu < 20[/tex].

What is the test statistic?

The test statistic is given by:

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

The parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean.[tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis.s is the standard deviation of the sample.n is the sample size.

In this problem, the values of the parameters are given as:

[tex]\overline{x} = 17.7, \mu = 20, s = 3.9, n = 33[/tex].

Hence, the value of the test statistic is:

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

[tex]t = \frac{17.7 - 20}{\frac{3.9}{\sqrt{33}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -3.39[/tex]

What is the p-value?

Using a t-distribution calculator, considering a left-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is less than value, the p-value is of 0.0009.

Find the diameter of a circle with area 28.3 yd2

Answers

Answer:

6.002722642yd

Step-by-step explanation:

Area to Radius:

Area of a circle = (pi)r(squared)

28.3= pi x r2

28.3/pi = r2

9.0081...=r2

square root of 9.0081...= radius

radius= 3.001361321yd*

Radius to Diameter:

diameter = radius x 2

d = 3.001361321* x 2

d = 6.002722642yd*

A shoebox has a length of 1 1/4 feet, a width of 1 foot, and a height of 1/2 foot cubes that measure 1/4 foot on each side are packed into the shoebox. how many of these cubes will fit inside the shoebox

Answers

The number of cubes that will fit into the shoebox is 40 cubes

How to calculate the volume of a box

Volume is the measure of a substance an object contains

Volume of the box = length * width * height

Volume of the box = 5/4 * 1 * 1/2
Volume of the box = 5/8cubic unit

Determine the volume of the box

Volume of the box = l³

Volume of the box = (1/4)³ = 1/64 cubic units

Number of cubes = (5/8)/(1/64)
Number of cubes = 5/8 * 64/1
Number of cubes = 5 * 8
Number of cubes = 40 cubes

Hence the number of cubes that will fit into the shoebox is 40 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

In Juneau, Alaska, the 30-year annual snowfall average is 86. 7 inches with a standard deviation of 40. 4 inches. The last four years saw an average annual snowfall of 115. 7 inches, 62. 9 inches, 168. 5 inches, and 135. 7 inches. Hia performs a hypothesis test on this data to determine if the next 30-year norm will have a different average if the trend from the last four years continues. She uses a significance level of 5%. Which of the following is a conclusion that she may make? The z-statistic is 1. 44, so the null hypothesis cannot be rejected. The z-statistic is 1. 68, so the null hypothesis cannot be rejected. The z-statistic is 1. 85, so the null hypothesis should be rejected. The z-statistic is 4. 6, so the null hypothesis should be rejected.

Answers

The z-statistic is 1. 68, so the null hypothesis cannot be rejected.

What is null hypothesis?

The expected value of the amount of average snowfall for over 30 years is 86.7 inches with a standard deviation of 40.4 inches.

To verify if this particular trend continues, we must check the significance value of the amount snowfall for the past four years.

Given that the snowfall for past years are as follows: 115.7 inches, 62.9 inches, 168.5 inches, and 135.7 inches.

Thus the mean of the sample would be: (115.7 + 62.9 + 168.5 + 135.7)/4 = 120.7 inches.

To compute for the z-score,

we have z-score = (x – μ) / (σ / √n)

where x is the computed/measured value,

μ is the expected mean, σ is the standard deviation,

and n is the number of samples.

Using the information we have,

z-score (z) = (120.7 - 86.7) / (40.4/ √4) = 1.68

In order to reject the null hyptohesis our probability value must be less than the significance level of 5%. For our case, since z = 1.68, P-value = 0.093 > 0.05.

Hence The z-statistic is 1. 68, so the null hypothesis cannot be rejected.

Volume of right prism is 1800 in³, So option 'B' is the correct answer to the following question.

Volume of right prism

What information do we have?

Height of the prism is labeled = 15 in.

Base of the prism is a triangle with the base = 30 in

Height labeled = 8 in

Volume of right prism = Area of base triangle × Height

Volume of right prism = (1/2)(b)(h) × Height

Volume of right prism = (1/2)(30)(8) × 15

Answers

So we see one large triangle, that can be split into two triangles split by the thin dotted line:

the First triangle --> has a hypotenuse of 26 and a leg of 11the Second triangle --> has a hypotenuse of 42

Let us find the other leg of the First triangle which also happens to be the height of the larger triangle, using the Pythagorean theorem

     [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\a^2 + 11^2 = 26^2\\a^2 = 26^2-11^2=555\\a=23.56[/tex]

Thus the height of the entire triangle is 23.56 which also happens to be one of the legs of the Second triangle

     [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2\\a^2+(23.56)^2=42^2\\a^2 = 1764-555=1209\\a = 34.77[/tex]

Having found the other leg of the Second Triangle, we can find the base of the larger triangle is:

     -->  34.77 + 11 = 45.77

The height as found in the first initial step is 23.56 thus the area is

What is the length of each side of the garden?

27 meters

Answers

Answer: 9 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's list what we know

The garden is in the shape of a triangle

The perimeter of the garden is 27 meters

Each side is the same length

The perimeter of something is the sum of all the side lengths added together. We know that the garden is a triangle and triangles have 3 sides

Since all the sides are the same length we can divide 27 by 3 to find the length of each side

27/3=9

The answer would be 9 meters because we know the perimeter is 27 and a triangle has 3 sides. All you have to do is add 9 to itself 3 times for each side and you get 27 meters.

added up, we get

108 + (x+5) + (x - 5) = 180

= 108 + 2x + 5 - 5

= 108 + 2x

subtract 108 from both sides to isolate the variable and its coefficient

72 = 2x

divide both sides by 2 to solve for x

How much money does Hunter have to make lemonade?

We know his total budget was $50 but he already spent $20 on a pitcher and cups.

$50 - $20 = $30

This means the total of money just for the lemonade is $30.

How many lemonade cups can he make?

To find this number divide the budget for lemonade by the cost of a lemonade cup $0.75.

$30 / $0.75 = 40

Answers

The amount we saved after paying $35.70 each for two games and $22.96 for a security program is $11.34.

What is the discount?

A discount refers to an amount deducted from the normal selling price of an object.

Let x be the original price of one game and y be the original price of one security program.

Given pay $35.70 each for two games and $22.96 for a security program.

The total pay with discount

$35.70 + $22.96 = $58.66

Also, 100% - 15% = 85%

100% - 18% = 82%

here, we have

0.85 (2x) = 35.70

1.70x = 35.70

x = $21

0.82 y = 22.96

y = $28

the total pay without discount

2x + y = 2 (21) + 28

          = $70

The amount saved is 70 - 58.66 = 11.34

Therefore, the amount we saved after paying $35.70 each for two games and $22.96 for a security program is $11.34.
