Some college professors make bound lecture notes available to their classes in an effort to improve teaching effectiveness. A study of business student's opinions of lecture notes. Two groups of students were surveyed - 86 students enrolled in a promotional strategy class that required the purchase of lecture notes, and 35 students enrolled in a sales/retailing elective that did not offer lecture notes. At the end of the semester :"Having a copy of the lecture notes was helpful in understanding the material." Responses were measured on a nine-point semantic difference scale, where 1="strongly disagree" and 9=" strongly agree." A summary of the results is reported in the follow:
Classes Buying Lecture Notes Classes Not Buying Lecture Notes
n1=86 n2=35
X1=8.48 X2=7.80
S21=.94 S22=2.99
a. Describe the two populations involved in the comparison.
b. Do the samples provides sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the mean responses of the two groups of the students? Test using α=.01
c. Construct a 99% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2). Interpret the result.
d. Would a 95% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2) be narrow or wider than the one you found in part c? Why?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of students sampled in both populations are large. We can assume that the populations are normally distributed. The populations are also independent.

b) This is a test of 2 independent groups. Let μ1 be the mean responses of students buying lecture notes and μ2 be the mean responses of students not buying lecture notes.

The random variable is μ1 - μ2 = difference in the mean responses of students buying lecture notes and the mean responses of students not buying lecture notes.

We would set up the hypothesis.

The null hypothesis is

H0 : μ1 = μ2 H0 : μ1 - μ2 = 0

The alternative hypothesis is

H1 : μ1 ≠ μ2 H1 : μ1 - μ2 ≠ 0

This is a two tailed test.

Since sample standard deviation is known, we would determine the test statistic by using the t test. The formula is

(x1 - x2)/√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2)

From the information given,

x1 = 8.48

x2 = 7.8

s1 = 0.94

s2 = 2.99

n1 = 86

n2 = 35

t = (8.48 - 7.8)/√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35)

t = 1.32

The formula for determining the degree of freedom is

df = [s1²/n1 + s2²/n2]²/(1/n1 - 1)(s1²/n1)² + (1/n2 - 1)(s2²/n2)²

df = [0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35]²/[(1/86 - 1)(0.94²/86)² + (1/35 - 1)(2.99²/35)²] = 0.0706/0.00192021883

df = 37

We would determine the probability value from the t test calculator. It becomes

p value = 0.195

c) Since alpha, 0.01 < than the p value, 0.195, then we would fail to reject the null hypothesis. Therefore, at 5% significance level, the samples do not provide sufficient evidence to conclude that there is a difference in the mean responses of the two groups of the students.

d) The formula for determining the confidence interval for the difference of two population means is expressed as

Confidence interval = (x1 - x2) ± z√(s²/n1 + s2²/n2)

For a 99% confidence interval, the z score is 1.2.58. This is determined from the normal distribution table.

x1 - x2 = 8.48 - 7.8 = 0.68

z√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 2.58√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35) = 1.33

The confidence interval is

0.68 ± 1.33

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 + 1.01 = 2.01

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 - 1.33 = - 0.65

We are confident that the difference in population means responses between the students buying lecture notes and the students not buying lecture notes is between - 0.65 and 2.01

d) For a 95% confidence interval, the z score is 1.96.

z√(s1²/n1 + s2²/n2) = 1.96√(0.94²/86 + 2.99²/35) = 1.01

The confidence interval is

0.68 ± 1.01

The upper boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 + 1.01 = 1.69

The lower boundary for the confidence interval is

0.68 - 1.01 = - 0.33

Therefore, a 95% confidence interval for (μ1-μ2) would be narrower. This is seen in the values in both scenarios.

Suppose you are planning an experiment and a sample has yet been selected. For this experiment you plan on taking a SRS of 50 mice with pancreatic cancer measuring a particular hormone level. What would be the impact on a 95% confidence interval calculated from the experiment on these mice if instead of a SRS of 50 mice, a SRS of 200 mice were taken?

Answers

Answer:

The width or range of the confidence interval with sample size 200 will be about half of that of the confidence interval with sample 50.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence Interval for the population mean is basically an interval of range of values where the true population mean can be found with a certain level of confidence.

Mathematically,

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Margin of Error is the width of the confidence interval about the mean.

It is given mathematically as,

Margin of Error = (Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (standard Error of the mean)

- For the two random samples, of sizes 50 and 200, the Central limit theorem allows us to say that the sample mean is approximately equal to the population mean as this random sample satisfies the condition of being a simple random sample and a distribution obtained from a normal distribution.

- Making the right assumption that population standard deviation is known and z-distribution is used to find the critical value

Critical value for 95% = 1.96

The critical value for both samples are the same then.

- Standard Error of the mean = σₓ = (σ/√n)

where σ = population standard deviation

n = sample size

For the two distributions

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± [(Critical value) × (Standard Error of the mean)

(Sample mean)₅₀ = (Sample mean)₂₀₀

(Critical value)₅₀ = (Critical value)₂₀₀

(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ = (σ/√50) = 0.1414σ

(Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀ = (σ/√200) = 0.0707σ

0.1414σ = 2 × 0.0707σ

(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ = 2 × (Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀

(Standard Error of the mean)₅₀ > (Standard Error of the mean)₂₀₀

Hence,

(Margin of Error)₅₀ > (Margin of Error)₂₀₀

(Margin of Error)₅₀ = 2 × (Margin of Error)₂₀₀

Confidence Interval = (Sample mean) ± (Margin of error)

Hence, the width or range of the confidence interval with sample size 50 will be about two times larger than the confidence interval with sample 200.

Answers

Answer:

18 + 81 = 9(x² + 6x + 9)

11 = (x + 3)²

When we are completing the square, we are going to move the value of c across the equals.  We will do that by adding, and end up with

18=9(x²+6x)

We take the value of b (the coefficient of x), divide it by 2 and square it:

(6/2)²=3²=9

This is the value that completes the square.  However, since the entire square is multiplied by 9, this value must be multiplied by 9 before we can add it across the equals:

18+9(9) = 9(x²+6x+9)

18+81=9(x²+6x+9)

99=9(x²+6x+9)

Dividing both sides by 9, we have:

11=x²+6x+9

11=(x+3)²

The probability that an event will happen is Upper P (Upper E )equalsStartFraction 13 Over 17 EndFraction . Find the probability that the event will not happen. The probability that the event will not happen is nothing.

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the event will not happen is [tex]\frac{4}{17}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The occurrence of an event can be divided into two parts, the event would occur or the event would not occur. But the probability of an event is 1.

From the given question;

The probability of the event = 1

The probability that the event will happen, P = [tex]\frac{13}{17}[/tex]

Thus,

The probability that the event will not happen = probability of the event - probability that the event will happen

                                               = 1 - P

                                               = 1 - [tex]\frac{13}{17}[/tex]

                                               = [tex]\frac{17 - 13}{17}[/tex]

                                               = [tex]\frac{4}{17}[/tex]

Thus, the probability that the event will not happen is [tex]\frac{4}{17}[/tex].

Q 2.20: In a survey, there are two categories of respondents, employed and unemployed people, and two options, A and B. The proportion of those who have chosen option B is greater than 0.5 among the total number of the respondents, but is lower than 0.5 among the unemployed respondents. We know that 314 employed and 512 unemployed people chose option A and 356 employed chose option B. How many unemployed people chose option B

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 508

Step-by-step explanation:

Solution

First of all, the proportion of B is exceeds 0.5 in total.

Now,

To find the total of A it we have A =314 +512 = 826

The number of employed that choose B = 356

For us to have the proportion of B to be higher than the 0.5, the unemployed B from what is shown here should exceed the difference between total A and B employed

what this suggest is that the employed B is greater than 826-356 = 470

So,

The respondent that are unemployed that choose B  must be greater than 470

Thus,

We recall that the B proportion among the unemployed respondent is lesser than .50

Thus suggests that the respondent that are unemployed who choose be is lesser than 512

The conditions becomes

470 lesser than the number of unemployed respondents who selected B lesser than 512

Hence  the needed number of the number of unemployed respondents who chose B should be between 470 and 512

So, possible answer here is 508.

An architect creates a scale model. The volume of the scale model is 0.1 cubic meters. The volume of the real-world

building is 100,000 cubic meters. What is the ratio of corresponding sides from model to real world?

Answers

Answer:

1:0.4641

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that the scale of the model with respect to the real world is 0.1 cubic meter. This means that for every 1 cubic meter in the real world the model represents 0.1.

They tell us that the real world volume is 100,000, that if we assume a cube, we have to:

V = l ^ 3

l = 100000 ^ (1/3)

l = 46.41

46.41 meters would be each side, now the volume of the model would be:

100,000 * 0.1 = 10,000

Which means that its sides would be:

V = l ^ 3

l = 100000 ^ (1/3)

l = 21.54

We calculate the scale of the sides:

21.54 / 46.41 = 0.4641

Which means that for every 1 meter in the real world the model represents 0.4641 meters.

The lines would intersect at: (6, -4)

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

(4,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation for the graphed line is [tex]y=\frac{1}{2} x-4[/tex] as it has a slope of [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] and a y-intercept of -4.

Now that we have the two equations, we can set them equal to each other to find the x-value at which they intersect

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x-4=-x+2[/tex]

First, we can add 4 to each side

[tex]\frac{1}{2} x=-x+6[/tex]

Then we can add x to each side

[tex]\frac{3}{2} x=6[/tex]

Now we need to divide both side by [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex], which is the same thing as multiplying by [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

[tex]x=6*\frac{2}{3} \\\\x=\frac{12}{3} \\\\x=4[/tex]

Now that we have the x-value, we can plug it into one of the equations to see the y-value for where they intersect.

[tex]y=-x+2\\\\y=-(4)+2\\\\y=-2[/tex]

This means that the coordinates for the intersection of these two lines would be [tex](4,-2)[/tex]

Then, rewrite Negative 3 and one-third divided by StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction as Negative StartFraction 13 over 3 EndFraction times StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction. The quotient is Negative 9 and three-fourths. Write Negative 3 and one-third as Negative StartFraction 10 over 3 EndFraction, and find the reciprocal of StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction as StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction. Then, rewrite Negative 3 and one-third divided by StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction as Negative StartFraction 10 over 3 EndFraction times StartFraction 9 over 4 EndFraction. The quotient is Negative 7 and StartFraction 6 over 12 EndFraction = Negative 7 and one-half. Write Negative 3 and one-third as Negative StartFraction 9 over 3 EndFraction. Then, rewrite Negative 3 and one-third divided by StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction as Negative StartFraction 9 over 3 EndFraction times StartFraction 4 over 9 EndFraction. The quotient is Negative 1 and one-third. Write Negative 3 and one-third as Negative StartFraction 10 over 3 EndFraction.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a bag with only red marbles and blue marbles.
The probability of randomly choosing a red marble is
7/10

There are 42 red marbles in the bag and each is equally likely to be chosen.
How many marbles in total must there be?

Answers

Answer:

There are 60 marbles in the bag

Step-by-step explanation:

The total number of marbles  times the probability of red marbles = number of red marbles

total * 7/10 = 42

Multiply each side by 10/7

total * 7/10 * 10/7 = 42*10/7

total

60

There are 60 marbles in the bag

What is the equation of the line that passes through (5, -2) and (-3, 4)?

Answers

Answer:

y = (-3/4)x + 7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define general form of equation of line

An equation of a straight line on two-dimensional plane could be represented in form of: y = Mx + b, with M is slope and b is y-intercept

Step 2: Set up the system to solve for parameters of equation of line

(solve for M and b)

That equation passes 2 points, which are represented in form of (x, y), (5, -2) and (-3, 4).

Substitute these values of x and y into the original equation in step 1:

-2 = 5M + b

4 = -3M + b

Step 3: Solve the system of equations in step 2 for M and b

Subtract 1st equation from 2nd equation:

     6 = -8M

=> M = -6/8 = -3/4

Substitute M back into 1st equation:

=> -2 = 5*(-3/4) + b

=>  b = -2 + 15/4

=>  b = 7/4

=>  The equation of the line that passes through (5, -2) and (-3, 4):

      y = (-3/4)x + 7/4

Hope this helps!

Answer:

Y= -4/3(x-7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

So first calculate the difference between them,

changes by 8 x units, and -6 y units.

Then substitute them into y/x to find gradient

-6/8 = -4/3

so now we have a part of the equation:

Y= -4/3(x-a)

substitute Y= -2 and x=5 (from (5,-2))

-2= -4/3(5-a)

-2= -20/3+4a/3

Multiply by 3 on both sides

-6= -20+4a

add 20 on both sides

14=4a

a=7/2

use this as the value of a

Y= -4/3(x-7/2)

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of an infinite geometric sequence is seven times the value of its first term.
a) Find the common ratio of the sequence.
b) Find the least number of terms of the sequence that must be added in order for the sum to exceed half the value of
the infinite sum.

Answers

Answer:

a). r = [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

b). At least 5 terms should be added.

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula representing sum of infinite geometric sequence is,

[tex]S_{\inf}=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex]

Where a = first term of the sequence

r = common ratio

a). If the sum is seven times the value of its first term.

    [tex]7a=\frac{a}{1-r}[/tex]

    [tex]7=\frac{1}{1-r}[/tex]

    7(1 - r) = 1

    7 - 7r = 1

    7r = 7 - 1

    7r = 6

    r = [tex]\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

b). Since sum of n terms of the geometric sequence is given by,

    [tex]S_{n}=\frac{a(1-r^{n})}{1-r}[/tex]

If the sum of n terms of this sequence is more than half the value of the infinite sum.

[tex]\frac{a[1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}]}{1-\frac{6}{7}}[/tex] >  [tex]\frac{7a}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}}{1-\frac{6}{7}}> \frac{7}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}}{\frac{1}{7}}> \frac{7}{2}[/tex]

[tex]1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> \frac{7}{2}\times \frac{1}{7}[/tex]

[tex]1-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex]-(\frac{6}{7})^{n}> -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex](\frac{6}{7})^{n}< \frac{1}{2}[/tex]

[tex](0.85714)^{n}< (0.5)[/tex]

n[log(0.85714)] < log(0.5)

-n(0.06695) < -0.30102

n > [tex]\frac{0.30102}{0.06695}[/tex]

n > 4.496

n > 4.5

Therefore, at least 5 terms of the sequence should be added.
