question 81 pts the effectiveness of two types of textbook is compared. a class of 30 students is randomly divided into two groups. one group uses digital textbooks and the other group uses paper textbooks. a summary of their test scores at the end of the session is given below. digital textbook: paper textbook: construct a 90% confidence interval for the difference in scores between the two groups assuming underlying normal distributions with equal variance. find the upper bound of the confidence interval (round off to first decimal place).

Answers

Answer 1

Therefore , the upper bound of the confidence interval is  - 8.82 .

What is confidence interval ?

A confidence interval in frequentist statistics is a range of estimates for an unobserved parameter. The most common confidence level for computing confidence intervals is 95%, however other levels, including 90% or 99%, are sporadically employed.

Here,

n1 = 17 ; X1' = 78.4 ; s1² = 90.3

n2 = 13 ; X2' = 92 ; s2² = 107.8

Confidence interval :

(x1 - x2) ± Tcritical * [tex]\sqrt{[(sp^{2} /n1 + sp^{2}/n2)]}[/tex]

Pooled variance = Sp²

=> Sp² = (df1*s1² + df2*s2²) / (n1 + n2 - 2)

df = n - 1

Sp² = (16*90.3 + 12*107.8) / 28

Sp² = 97.8

Tcritical, 90%, df = n1 + n2 - 2 = 28 (1 - tail)

Tcritical = 1.313

(78.4-92)±1.313*sqrt[(sp²/n1 + sp²/n2)]

Margin of Error = Tcritical *[tex]\sqrt{[(sp^{2} /n1 + sp^{2}/n2)]}[/tex]

Margin of Error = (1.313 * √(97.8/17 + 97.8/13)) = 4.7771473

Upper boundary :

(78.4-92) + 4.7771473

-13.6 + 4.7771473

= -8.8228527

= - 8.82

Therefore , the upper bound of the confidence interval is  - 8.82 .

Give an exact value, not a decimal approximation.

Answers

Answer:

θ = 35°

Step--step explanation:

using SOH CAH TOA

Hypotenuse = 7

opposite = 4

adjacent = needs to be found

θ = needs to be found

According to Pythagoras theorem

Hyp² = opp² – Adj²

7² = 4² – Adj²

Adj² = 49 – 16

Adj ² = 33

Adj = 5.7

what connects Hypotenuse and opposite os SOH

sinθ = opposite/Hypotenuse

The most effective approach to finding a domain will depend on the type of function.

The domain is expressed using an open bracket or parenthesis, the domain's two endpoints separated by a comma, and then a closed bracket or parenthesis.

To find domain of function we should know the property of that function like what the function can take inside it.

The minimum sales price Zion Sun Chairs must sell each chair to earn a monthly profit of $75,000, given total monthly fixed costs of $17,363.50 and variable cost per chair of $52.17, is D. $78.01.

How is the minimum sales price determined?

To compute the minimum sales price, we determine the expected total sales revenue to meet the target profit.

The total sales revenue equals the total costs and the target profit.

Using division operation, the sales price is the quotient of the total sales revenue and the number of units.

The number of beach chairs produced monthly = 3,575

Target monthly profit = $75,000

Total monthly fixed costs = $17,363.50

Variable cost per chair = $52.17

Total variable costs = $186,507.75 ($52.17 x 3,575)

Total costs (variable and fixed) = $203,871.25 ($186,507.75 + $17,363.50)

Expected total sales revenue to earn a profit = $278,871.25 ($203,871.25 + $75,000)

Selling price per unit to earn a profit of $75,000 = $78.01 ($278,871.25 ÷ 3,575)

Thus, the minimum sales price is not Options A to C, but D.

Answers

The height of the tree to the nearest hundredth of a meter = 7.54 m

What are similar triangles?

If two triangles' corresponding angles and sides are identical and their corresponding sides are proportional, or if the ratios between the lengths of the corresponding sides are comparable, then two triangles are said to be similar.

From the figure,

AB= 21.15 meters

AE = AB - BE = 21.15 - 16.8 = 4.35 meters

BC= height, h

The triangles ABC and ADE are similar triangles

So,

AE/DE  = AB/BC

4.35 / 1.55 = 21.15/  h

h = ( 21.15 * 1.55 ) / 4.35

  = 32.78/4.35 = 7.54 m

So, the height of the tree to the nearest hundredth of a meter = 7.54 m

The value of test statistic for test of independence is 62.5

The Chi-square test of independence checks that two variables are related or not. We have to count for two nominal variables. We also believe that the two variables are unrelated. The test allows us to determine whether or not our idea is plausible.

The sections that follow go over what we need for the test, how to perform it, understanding the results, statistical details, and p-values.

Given,

the table shows the beverage preferences for random samples of teens and adults.

For calculating the test statistics,

First wee need to calculate the expected values of every observed values.

Expected values for teens,

[tex]E(50)=\frac{250*400}{1000}=100\\\\E(100=)\frac{250*400}{1000}=100\\\\E(200)=\frac{400*400}{1000}=160\\\\E(50)=\frac{100*400}{1000}=40[/tex]

Expected values for adults,

[tex]E(200)=250-100=150\\\\E(150)=250-100=150\\\\E(200)=400-160=240\\\\E(50)=100-40=60[/tex]

Now, the test statistic is given by:

[tex]X^2=\frac{\sum\limits^n_{i=1}(O_i-E_i)^2}{E_i}[/tex]

Where, Ei=expected value and Oi = observed value

[tex]X^2=\frac{(50-100)^2}{100}+\frac{(100-100)^2}{100}+...\frac{(200-240)^2}{240}+\frac{(50-60)^2}{60}=62.5[/tex]

What is the only difference between adding and subtracting polynomials?

Answers

The basic difference between the addition and subtraction of polynomials has been explained below.

A polynomial is a mathematical expression containing two or more algebraic terms containing variables and their coefficients that involve operations such as addition, subtraction, and multiplication.

The basic difference between the addition and subtraction of polynomials is that since subtraction is the inverse of addition, all terms get the opposite sign upon subtraction. For example -

In addition - 2x²+3x+4 and 3x²+7x+9 are added and we get = 6x²+10x+13

In subtraction - The same polynomials are subtracted = -x²-7x-5

Henceforth, we see that the signs have changed to the opposite.

The solutions to the inequalities are x ≤ -5, x ≥ 1 and x > 1

How to determine the solution to the inequalities?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

-4x ≥ 20

8 ≤ -4(x - 1)

3x - 2 > 4 - 3x

Next, we solve the inequalities

Inequality 1

-4x ≥ 20

Divide both sides of the inequality by -4

So, we have the following representation

x ≤ -5

Inequality 2

8 ≤ -4(x - 1)

Divide both sides of the inequality by -4

So, we have the following representation

-2 ≥ -x - 1

Rewrite as

x + 1 ≥ 2

Evaluate the like terms

x ≥ 1

Inequality 3

3x - 2 > 4 - 3x

Add to both sides of the inequality 3x

So, we have the following representation

6x - 2 > 4

[tex]\textsf{c)} \quad a = -4,\;\; a = 6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part (a)

[tex]\boxed{\begin{minipage}{9cm}\underline{Gradient Formula}\\\\Gradient $=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$\\\\where $(x_1,y_1)$ and $(x_2,y_2)$ are two points on the line.\\\end{minipage}}[/tex]

Substitute the given points into the gradient formula to find the gradient of line PQ:

[tex]\textsf{Gradient}=\dfrac{-a-(a-2)}{(4-3a)-a}=\dfrac{-a-a+2}{4-3a-a}=\dfrac{2-2a}{4-4a}=\dfrac{2(1-a)}{4(1-a)}=\dfrac{2}{4}=\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Part (b)

If two lines are perpendicular to each other, their gradients are negative reciprocals.

Therefore, the gradient of a line perpendicular to PQ is:

Substitute the points and the given distance 10√5 into the formula and solve for a.

[tex]\implies 10\sqrt{5}=\sqrt{((4-3a)-a)^2+(-a-(a-2))^2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 10\sqrt{5}=\sqrt{(4-3a-a)^2+(-a-a+2)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 10\sqrt{5}=\sqrt{(4-4a)^2+(2-2a)^2}[/tex]

[tex]\implies 500=16-32a+16a^2+4-8a+4a^2[/tex]

[tex]\implies 500=20a^2-40a+20[/tex]

[tex]\implies 25=a^2-2a+1[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2-2a-24=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies a^2-6a+4a-24=0[/tex]

[tex]\implies a(a-6)+4(a-6)=0[/tex]

Apply the zero-product property:

What is a right-angle triangle?

It's a form of a triangle with one 90-degree angle that follows Pythagoras' theorem and can be solved using the trigonometry function.

Trigonometric functions examine the interaction between the dimensions and angles of a triangular form.

From a sight-seeing balloon, Justin estimates a 34° point of sadness to a milestone that is 1424 feet away, estimating on a level plane.

The vertical distance of the balloon from the ground will be given as,

tan 34° = h / 1424

Simplify the equation, then we have

h = 1424 tan 34°

h = 960.50 feet

The upward distance of the inflatable starting from the earliest stage is 960.50 feet.

a car travel 20kph faster than a truck. the car cover 350 km in two hours less than the time it takes the truck to travel the same distance. what is the speed of the car? how about the truck?

Answers

A car travel 20kph faster than a truck. the car cover 350 km in two hours less than the time. The speed of the car is 50 km/h. The speed of truck is 70 km/h.

Define speed.

You can determine an object's speed if you know how far it moves in a given amount of time. For instance, an automobile is moving at a pace of 70 miles per hour if it covers 70 miles in an hour (miles per hour).

Given,

A car travel 20kph faster than a truck. the car cover 350 km in two hours less than the time.

Let s represent the truck's speed and (s+20) represent the car's speed.

to determine each vehicle's time

Time = Speed / Distance

truck time = 350/s

Time in an automobile is 350/(s+20)

Truck time - car time = 2 hours

So,

(350/s) - [350/(s+20)] = 2

LCM is s(s+20)

[350(s+20) - 350s]/s(s+20) = 2

Cross multiplying,

350(s+20) - 350s = 2s(s+20)

Simplifying the equation,

350s + 7000 - 350s = 2s² + 40s

Now, we have quadratic equation to simplify,

2s² + 40s - 7000 = 0

Dividing the equation by 2

s² + 20s - 3500 = 0

Factorizing,

s= 50

s= -70 (impossible because of the sign)

Hence the truck's speed is s = 50 km/h.

The speed of the car is s + 20 = 70 km/h.
