Data were collected on annual personal time (in hours) taken by a random sample of 16 women and 7 men employed by a medium sized company. The women took an average of 24.75 hours of personal time per year with a standard deviation of 2.84 hours. The men took an average of 21.89 hours of personal time per year with a standard deviation of 3.29 hours. The correct 90% confidence interval for the difference between women and men in the average number of hours of personal time taken per year is ________.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct 90% confidence interval for the difference between women and men in the average number of hours of personal time taken per year is

contained by the interval (0.54 , 5.18)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

for women

sample size  = n₁ = 16

sample mean [tex](\bar X_1)[/tex] = 24.75

standard deviation s₁ = 2.84

for men

sample size for men = n₂ = 7

sample mean [tex](\bar X_2)[/tex] = 21.89

standard deviation s₂ = 3.29

degree of freedom = [tex](n_1 + n_2 )-2[/tex]

= 16 + 7 -2

= 21

The critical value for [tex]\alpha = 0.1 \ and \ df \ of \ 21 \ is :[/tex]

[tex]t_{0.005;21}= 1.721[/tex]

The pooled standard deviation can be calculated as follows since the population variances are assumed to be equivalent.

[tex]s_p = \sqrt{\dfrac{(n_1 -1)s_1^2+(n_2-1)s_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2}}[/tex]

[tex]s_p = \sqrt{\dfrac{(16 -1)2.84^2+(7-1)3.29^2}{16+7-2}}[/tex]

[tex]s_p = \sqrt{\dfrac{(15)8.0656+(6)10.8241}{21}}[/tex]

[tex]s_p = 2.976[/tex]

The standard error is estimated as follow:

[tex]se = s_p\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{n_1} + \dfrac{1}{n_2}}[/tex]

[tex]se = 2.976\sqrt{\dfrac{1}{16} + \dfrac{1}{7}}[/tex]

se = 1.348

Finally, the confidence interval [tex]C.I = ( x_1 -x_2 -t_c \times se \ \ ; \ \ x_1-x_2 +t_c \times se)[/tex]

[tex]=(24.75 - 21.89 -1.721 \times 1.348 \ \ , \ \ 2475 - 21.89 + 1.721 \times 1.348) \\ \\ \mathbf{ = (0.54 \ \ , \ \ 5.18)}[/tex]

What is a quartic polynomial function with zeros -20, -16, -11, and -9?
What are the zeros of x^3 + 16x^2 + 60x? What are their multiplicities?

Answers

Answer:(x + 1)(x - 1)(x + 5)(x - 3) is the fully factored form of the polynomial.

The zeros are (-1, 0), (1, 0), (-5, 0), and (3, 0).

x^4 + 2x^3 - 16x^2 - 2x + 15

We can use the rational roots theorem to find some of the possible roots, and after finding just one root, we can simplify this polynomial.

List factors of 15:

1, 3, 5, 15.

List factors of 1:

1.

Our possible rational factors are:

+/- 1, +/- 3, +/- 5, +/- 15.

To find factors, we can use the remainder theorem.

Replace all x values with 1.

1^4 + 2(1)^3 - 16(1)^2 - 2(1) + 15 = 0

Because the answer is zero, it means that 1 is a root.

We can divide this polynomial by x - 1 to find a simplified form.

After dividing, our quotient is: x^3 + 3x^2 - 13x - 15

We can continue finding factors by using the rational roots theorem. Once we have only three terms, we can try to factor using the AC method.

Our next possible root is -1.

(-1)^3 + 3(-1)^2 - 13(-1) - 15 = 0

We know that -1 is also a root, and so we can divide the polynomial by x + 1.

After diving we're left with x^2 + 2x - 15.

Now, we can try to factor using the AC method.

List factors of -15.

1 * -15

A city councilwoman is concerned that the new contractor she hired is taking too long to replace defective streetlights. She would like to perform a hypothesis test to determine if the replacement time for streetlights under the new contractor is in fact longer than the replacement time under the previous contractor, which was 3.2 days on average. She selects a random sample of 12 streetlight service calls and obtains the following times to replacement (in days). Use a significance level of 0.05

6.2 7.15.4 5.57.52.6 4.3 2.9 3.7 0.7 5.6 1.7

Required:
a. Define μ in the context of the problem and state the appropriate hypotheses.
b. State and check the conditions for a hypothesis test of the mean. Since the sample size is smaller than 30, you will need to calculate a normal probability plot to determine if the data come from a normal distribution.

Answers

Answer:

There is significant evidence to conclude that the replacement time for streetlights under the new contractor is longer than the replacement time under the previous contractor.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

6.2 7.1 5.4 5.5 7.5 2.6 4.3 2.9 3.7 0.7 5.6 1.7

The hypothesis:

H0: μ = 3.2

H1 : μ > 3.2

n = sample size = 12

The sample mean, xbar = ΣX / n

xbar = 53.2 / 12

xbar = 4.43

Using calculator;

Sample standard deviation, s = 2.147

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/sqrt(n))

(4.43 - 3.2) ÷ (2.147/sqrt(12)

1.23 / 0.6197855

Test statistic = 1.985

The Pvalue using the Pvalue from Tscore calculator :

Tscore = 1.985 ; df = 12 - 1 = 11

Pvalue = 0.036

Since Pvalue < α ; We reject the Null

Hence, we conclude that the replacement time for streetlights under the new contractor is longer than the replacement time under the previous contractor.

Find the length of the chord made by 3x2 - y2 = 3 and y + x – 5 = 0.

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is "9√2 units".

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equations are:

⇒ [tex]3x^2-y^2=3[/tex]...(equation 1)

⇒ [tex]y+x-5=0[/tex]...(equation 2)

According to the 2nd equation, we get

⇒ [tex]y+x-5=0[/tex]

⇒              [tex]y=5-x[/tex]

On substituting the value of "y" in the 1st equation, we get

⇒  [tex]3x^2-y^2=3[/tex]

     [tex]3x^2-(5-x)^2=3[/tex]

     [tex]3x^2-(25+x^2-10x)=3[/tex]

     [tex]2x^2+10x-28=0[/tex]

On taking common, we get

     [tex]x^2+5x-14=0[/tex]

On applying factorization, we get

     [tex]x^2+7x-2x-14=0[/tex]

   [tex]x(x+7)-2(x+7)=0[/tex]

           [tex](x+7)(x-2)=0[/tex]

                        [tex]x+7=0[/tex]

                              [tex]x=-7[/tex]

or,

                         [tex]x-2=0[/tex]

                                [tex]x=2[/tex]

Now,

The points are:

(-7, 12) = (x₁, y₁)

(2, 3) = (x₂, y₂)

By using the distance formula, the length of chord will be:

= [tex]\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}[/tex]

On substituting the values in the above formula, we get

= [tex]\sqrt{(2-(-7))^2+(3-12)^2}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{(9)^2+(-9)^2}[/tex]

= [tex]\sqrt{81+81}[/tex]

= [tex]9 \sqrt{2}[/tex] units

John took all his money from his savings account. He spent $108 on a radio and 5/9 of what was left on presents for his friends. Of the money remaining, John put 5/6 into a checking account and the last remaining $80 was left to charity. How much money did John originally have in his savings account? ​

Answers

Answer:

I believe its 313$

Step-by-step explanation:

John originally have $1,118 in his savings​ account.

Here,

We have to find the original savings account of John.

What is Number system?

A system of writing to express numbers is called Number system.

Now,

Let us assume amount of money John originally have in his savings​ account = $x

Money spent on a radio = $108

Remaining money = x - 108

Money spent on presents for his friends = Two third of remaining money                                  = 5/9 (x - 108).

(Because 1 - 5/9  = 1/1 - 5/9  = 4/9)

Remaining money = 4/9 (x - 108).

Five sixth of his remaining money into a checking account = 5/6 * 4/9(x - 108)

( because 1 - 5/6 = 1/1 -5/6 = 1/6)

Remaining money = 1/6 *4/9 (x - 108).

Final remaining money =  1/6 *4/9 (x - 108)

And that is equal to the money donated to charity.

We can setup an equation now.

1/6 *4/9 (x - 108) = 80

4(x - 108) = 80 * 9 *6

x - 108 = 20 * 54

x = 1080 + 108

x = 1,188

Therefore, John originally have $1,118 in his savings​ account.

A political pollster wants to know what proportion of voters are planning to vote for the incumbent candidate in
an upcoming election. A poll of 150 randomly selected voters is taken from the more than 2,000 voters in the
population, and 78 of those selected plan to vote for the incumbent candidate.
Based on this sample, which of the following is a 90% confidence interval for the proportion of all voters who
plan to vote for the incumbent candidate?

Answers

Answer:

90% confidence interval -> {0.4529, 0.5871}

Step-by-step explanation:

Check conditions for a 1-proportion z-interval:

np>10 -> 150(0.52)>10 -> 78>10 √

n(1-p)>10 -> 150(1-0.52)>10 -> 72>10 √

Random sample √

n>30 √

For a 90% confidence interval, the critical value is z=1.645

The formula for a confidence interval is:

CI = p ± z√[p(1-p)/n]

Given:

p = 78/150 = 0.52

n = 150

z = 1.645

Therefore, the 90% confidence interval is:

CI = 0.52 ± 1.645√[0.52(1-0.52)/150] = {0.4529, 0.5871}

Context: We are 90% confident that the true proportion of all voters who

plan to vote for the incumbent candidate is contained within the interval
