Subjects in a study by Dabonneville et al. (A-9) included a sample of 40 men who claimed to engage in a variety of sports activities (multisport). The mean body mass index (BMI) for these men was 22.41 with a standard deviation of 1.27. A sample of 24 male rugby players had a mean BMI of 27.75 with a standard deviation of 2.64. Is there sufficient evidence for one to claim that, in general, rugby players have a higher BMI than the multisport men? Let a ¼ :01.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The responses can be defined as follows:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

[tex]H_o : \mu_1 = \mu_2\\\\H_a : \mu_1 < \mu_2[/tex]

Testing the hypothesis:

[tex]Z=\frac{( \bar{x_1}-\bar{x_2})}{\sqrt{\frac{s_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{s_2^2}{n_2}}}[/tex]

   [tex]=\frac{(22.41-27.75)}{\sqrt{(\frac{1.27^2}{40}+\frac{2.64^2}{24})}}\\\\=-9.29\\\\[/tex]

[tex]a=0.01[/tex]

critical value [tex]Z(0.01)=-2.33[/tex] (using the standard normal table)

[tex]Z=-9.29<-2.33[/tex] so, we reject [tex]H_o[/tex].

Answer 2

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, there is sufficient evidence for one to claim that, in general, rugby players have a higher BMI than the multisport men.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested that rugby players do not have a higher BMI than the multi-sport men, that is, the subtraction of the means is not greater than 0, hence:

[tex]H_0: \mu_R - \mu_M \leq 0[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if they have a higher BMI, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu_R - \mu_M > 0[/tex]

We have the standard deviation for the samples, hence, the t-distribution is used.

The standard errors are given by:

[tex]s_M = \frac{1.27}{\sqrt{40}} = 0.2008[/tex]

[tex]s_R = \frac{2.64}{\sqrt{24}} = 0.5389[/tex]

For the distribution of differences, the mean and the standard error are given by:

[tex]\overline{x} = \mu_R - \mu_M = 27.75 - 22.41 = 5.34[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{s_M^2 + s_R^2} = \sqrt{0.2008^2 + 0.5389^2} = 0.5751[/tex]

The test statistic is given by:

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

In which [tex]\mu = 0[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis.

Hence:

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

[tex]t = \frac{5.34 - 0}{0.5751}[/tex]

[tex]t = 9.29[/tex]

Using a t-distribution calculator, for a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is greater than a value, with a significance level of 0.05 and 40 + 24 - 2 = 62 df, the critical value is of [tex]t^{\ast} = 1.67[/tex]

Since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, there is sufficient evidence for one to claim that, in general, rugby players have a higher BMI than the multisport men.

No links please :)

Answers

Answer:

A) P(chooses a blue pencil and then a red pencil) = 5/27

B) P(chooses yellow then blue) = 5/81

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 3 red pencils, 5 blue pencils, and 1 yellow pencil in her backpack

Thus;

total number of pencils = 3 + 5 + 1 = 9 pencils

A) probability that she chooses a blue pencil and then a red pencil;

P(blue) = 5/9

Now she puts it bag after choosing which means the sum is back to 8 pencils.

Thus, if she now chooses a red pencil, then P(red) = 3/9 = 1/3

Thus;

P(chooses a blue pencil and then a red pencil) = 5/9 × 1/3

P(chooses a blue pencil and then a red pencil) = 5/27

B) probability that Chloe chooses the yellow pencil and then a blue pencil;

Similar to A above;

P(yellow) = 1/9

P(blue) = 5/9

P(chooses yellow then blue) = 1/9 × 5/9

P(chooses yellow then blue) = 5/81

Find the probability of two persons being born on the same day?

Answers

Answer:

1/365

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of being born any day of the year is 1 or more specifically: 365/365. Since Person B must be born on the same day as Person A their probability is 1/365

Answer:

Person A can be born on any day of the year since they’re the first person we’re asking. The probability of being born any day of the year is 1 or more specifically: 365/365.

Since Person B must be born on the same day as Person A their probability is 1/365.

We want both of these events to happen so multiply the probabilities:

365[tex] \frac{365}{365} . \frac{1}{365} = 0.0027[/tex]

So you have a 0.27% chance of walking up to a stranger and discovering that their birthday is the same day as yours.

perimeter =sum of all side

or, 64 - 7 = 3x

or, 57 = 3x

a population has a standard deviation of 20.2. what is the standard error of the sampling distribution if the sample size is 121? round your answer to two decimal places.
A) 1.84
B) 1.44
C) 1.55
D) 1.68

Answers

Answer:

A) 1.84

Step-by-step explanation:

I just took the quiz

The standard error of the sampling size is 121 is 1.84

What is standard error?

"a measure of the statistical accuracy of an estimate, equal to the standard deviation of the theoretical distribution of a large population of such estimates."

"In the standard error formula, the factor sqrt[ (N - n ) / (N - 1) ] is called the finite population correction or fpc. When the population size is very large relative to the sample size, the fpc is approximately equal to one; and the standard error formula can be approximated by:

σx = σ / sqrt(n)."

Given,

Standard deviation of the sample is 20.2

and sample size is = 121

Standard error is = [tex]\sigma/\sqrt(n)[/tex]

i.e. standard error = [tex]20.2/\sqrt(121)[/tex] = 20.2/ 11 = 1.84

Hence, option A is true.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 18*4^x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We want an exponential equation in the following format:

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

Point (0,18):

This means that when [tex]x = 0, y = 0[/tex]. So

[tex]y = ab^x[/tex]

[tex]18 = ab^0[/tex]

[tex]a = 18[/tex]

So

[tex]y = 18b^x[/tex]

Point (2,288):

This means that when [tex]x = 2, y = 288[/tex]. So

[tex]y = 18b^x[/tex]

[tex]18b^2 = 288[/tex]

[tex]b^2 = \frac{288}{18}[/tex]

[tex]b^2 = 16[/tex]

[tex]b = 4[/tex].

So
