The situation is as follows: Smart phones have changed the world and how we spend our time. A group of researchers at BYU want to estimate the mean daily number of minutes that BYU students spend on their phones. In fall 2019, they took a random sample of 430 BYU students and found that on average, students spend 312 minutes on their phones with a standard deviation of 54 minutes per day. The plot of the sample data showed no extreme skewness or outliers. Calculate a 96% confidence interval estimate for the mean daily number of minutes that BYU students spend on their phones in fall 2019. Do not round off in the intermediate steps, only the final answer should be rounded off to two decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 96% confidence interval estimate for the mean daily number of minutes that BYU students spend on their phones in fall 2019 is between 306.65 minutes and 317.35 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Confidence interval normal

We have that to find our [tex]\alpha[/tex] level, that is the subtraction of 1 by the confidence interval divided by 2. So:

[tex]\alpha = \frac{1 - 0.96}{2} = 0.02[/tex]

Now, we have to find z in the Ztable as such z has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \alpha[/tex].

That is z with a pvalue of [tex]1 - 0.02 = 0.98[/tex], so Z = 2.054.

Now, find the margin of error M as such

[tex]M = z\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

In which [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the population and n is the size of the sample.

[tex]M = 2.054\frac{54}{\sqrt{430}} = 5.35[/tex]

The lower end of the interval is the sample mean subtracted by M. So it is 312 - 5.35 = 306.65 minutes

The upper end of the interval is the sample mean added to M. So it is 312 + 5.35 = 317.35 minutes

The 96% confidence interval estimate for the mean daily number of minutes that BYU students spend on their phones in fall 2019 is between 306.65 minutes and 317.35 minutes.

In a law office, the average number of billed hours per day was 150 last year. In the first 85 days of this year, the average number of billed hours per day is 158 with a standard deviation of 65 hours. When testing the hypothesis (at the 10% level of signficance) that the average number of billed hours per day has increased, what is the null and alternative hypotheses (please write out the null and alternative hypotheses below AND on your scratch work...failure to do BOTH will result in 0 points)

Answers

Answer:

There isn't enough evidence to reject H0

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis :

H0: μ = 150

H1 : μ > 150

Decision region :

Reject Null if ;

Pvalue < α

Zstatistic = (x - μ) / (s/sqrt(n))

Zstatistic = (158 - 150) / (65/sqrt(85))

Zstatistic = 0.1135

Using the P value calculator from Zstatistic at 90% ; α = 0.10 confidence interval ; one tailed test = 0.128

Pvalue = 0.128

Since ; 0.128 > 0.10

Pvalue > α

We cannot reject H0:

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Mean = 48.6364[/tex]

[tex]s^2 = 331.8545[/tex] -- Sample Variance

[tex]s = 18.2169[/tex] --- Sample Standard Deviation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]n = 11[/tex]

[tex]Data: 24, 41 ,25 ,68 ,53 ,83 ,43 ,63 ,56 ,34 ,45[/tex]

Solving (a): The sample mean

[tex]Mean = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

So:

[tex]Mean = \frac{24 +41 +25 +68 +53 +83 +43 +63 +56 +34+ 45}{11}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = \frac{535}{11}[/tex]

[tex]Mean = 48.6364[/tex]

Solving (b): Sample variance (s^2)

This is calculated as:

[tex]s^2 = \frac{\sum (x - \bar x_i)^2}{n - 1}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]\bar x = 48.6364[/tex]

So:

[tex]s^2 = \frac{(24 -48.6364)^2 +(41 -48.6364)^2 +......................+( 45 -48.6364)^2}{11-1}[/tex]

[tex]s^2 = \frac{3318.54545456}{10}[/tex]

[tex]s^2 = 331.8545[/tex]

Solving (c): Sample Standard Deviation (s)

This is calculated as:

[tex]s = \sqrt {s^2[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{331.8545[/tex]

[tex]s = 18.2169[/tex]

Answer:

  3x +4y = -36

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form is ...

  y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. From this equation, we can find the y-intercept as ...

  b = y -mx

For the given point and slope, this is ...

  b = -6 -(-3/4)(-4) = -9

Then the slope-intercept equation is ...

  y = -3/4x -9

We can multiply by 4 to get something we can put in standard form.

  4y = -3x -36

  3x +4y = -36 . . . . standard form equation

x + 4 = 64

and

option e

x = 60  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in the question an expression

3∛x+4 = 12

∛x + 4 = 12/3

∛x + 4 = 4

Take cube on both sides of the equation

∛(x + 4)³ = 4³

x + 4 = 64

x = 64 - 4

x = 60  

To graph the equation 2x + 5y = 10, Zeplyn draws a line through the points (5, 0) and (0, What is the slope of the line represented by 2x + 5y = 10?

Answers

Answer: -2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we set the function use y = mx + b forms.

2x + 5y = 10

        5y = -2x + 10              Minus 2x in both side

           y = -2/5x + 10/5       Divide 5 from both side

           y = -2/5x + 2

In the y = mx + b, the m before variable x is always the slope, so -2/5 is the slope for 2x + 5y = 10.

Answer: One solution!!

I checked desmos and it only intersected at one point :)

Answer: The answer is ONE Solution

Step-by-step explanation:

A system of equations have no solution when their slopes are the same but they have different y-intercepts. When graphed, the lines cannot intersect for there to be a solution. Looking at both equations, they have different slopes and different y intercepts so you can rule "NO solution" out.

Secondly a system of equations have infinitely many solution if they both share the same slopes and y-intercepts.

Looking at both lines, they have different slopes and different y-intercepts, so you can also rule that out.

A system of equations have one solution if their slopes are different and y intercepts are also different. Looking at the two lines, we can notice that the slope and y-intercepts are all different.

Select the correct answer.

Consider this absolute value function.

If function f is written as a piecewise function, which piece will it include?

A. x + 3, x > 3
B. x + 3, x > -3
C. -x + 3, x < -3
D. -x - 3, x < 3

Answers

Answer:

B) x + 3, x > -3

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took a test with this question on it and got it right.

Hope this helps! :)

If function f is written as a piecewise function, it will include x + 3, x > -3

The absolute value function is given as:

f(x) = | x + 3 |

Given that the function is an absolute value function, this means that:

|x + 3| > 0

Remove the absolute sign

x + 3 > 0

Subtract 3 from both sides

x > -3

Hence, if function f is written as a piecewise function, it will include x + 3, x > -3

Answer:

The last one

Step-by-step explanation:

The fast reason why - all the other scenarios require 3 lines: 2 lines both parallel to a 3rd, or 2 lines cut by a transversal line, etc. The diagram only shows 2 lines. So the right answer must be the one that doesn't require a third line to be present.  :)

The longer answer why - See how angles 2 & 3 have the same style of arc? That is telling you they are of equal measure. So together they are a straight angle, 180°. And they are equal to each other, so 2x = 180° --> each one must be a 90° angle.

Wherever two lines cross, if one angle is a right angle, all 4 angles at the intersection also must be right angles, so everything is perpendicular.

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Evaluate [tex]log_372[/tex]

We have:

[tex]log_372 = log_3(8 *9)[/tex]

Apply law of logarithm

[tex]log_372 = log_38 +log_39[/tex]

Express 9 as 3^2

[tex]log_372 = log_38 +log_33^2[/tex]

Evaluate the exponents

[tex]log_372 = log_38 +2log_33[/tex]

[tex]log_33 = 1[/tex].

So:

[tex]log_372 = log_38 + 2 * 1[/tex]
