Independent random samples of released prisoners in the fraud and firearms offense categories yielded the given information on time served in months. At the 1% significance level, do the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the meantime served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses? Assume that populations standard deviations are the same for both groups. (i.e., we assume σ1 = σ2 .)
Answer:
Since the computed value of t= -4.654 does not fall in the critical region we therefore accept the null hypothesis . We conclude that there is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the means time served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.
Step-by-step explanation:

11.2 15.8 20.4 9.8
7.2 5.2 13.1 13.5
7.7 4.9 20.7 23.1
7.4 9.8 10.4 22.2
∑ 93.6 169
Fraud (X1i)² Firearm(X2j)²
231.04 84.64 404.01 246.49
125.44 249.64 416.16 96.04
51.84 27.04 171.61 182.25
59.29 24.01 428.49 533.61
54.76 96.04 108.16 492.84
∑1003.79 3079.66
We formulate the null and alternative hypothesis as
H0: μ1 - μ2 ≤ 0 i.e. the fraud meantime is less than that for firearms offenses.
Ha: μ1- μ2 > 0 i.e. the fraud meantime is greater than that for firearms offenses.
We set the significance level at ∝= 0.01
The test statistic, if H0 is true , is
t= x1`1- x`2/ Sp√1/n1+ 1/n2
which has a student t- distribution with ν= n1+ n2 -2 = 18 degrees of freedom
The critical region consists of all t- values which are greater than or equal to t> t(0.01)(18)= 2.522
Computations :
X1`= ∑X1i/n1 = 93.6/10= 9.36
X2`=∑X2j/n2=169/10 = 16.9
∑( X1i- x`1)² = ∑X1i²- (∑X1i)²/n1
= 1003.79 - 876.096/10
= 100.379- 87.6096
=12.7694
∑( X2j- x`2)² = ∑X2j²- (∑X2j)²/n2
= 3079.66 - 28561/10
= 3079.66- 2856.1
=223.56
Sp²= 12.7694+223.56/18= 13.129
Sp = √13.129 =3.623
t= 9.36-16.9/ 3.623√0.1+0.1
t= -7.54/ 1.62
t= -4.654
Conclusion: Since the computed value of t= -4.654 does not fall in the critical region we therefore accept the null hypothesis . We conclude that there is sufficient evidence to indicate a difference in the means time served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.
The meantime served for fraud is less than that for firearms offenses.
The cost of painting a wall that is 5 meters wide and 2 1/2 meters tall is $50. How many square meters can be painted for $1?
please answer asap
Answer: If the a and b of your formula mean how many hours it takes each
person, like a = 2 and b = 1, then the formula gives 3/2 or 1 hour and
30 minutes. This is not reasonable, since one of the painters alone
could do it in 1 hour.
Actually, your formula is UPSIDE DOWN. It should be (a*b)/(a+b).
Here's why.
Let h be the number of hours it takes for the two of them to do it
together. The first person could do it all in a hours, but can paint
only a fraction of the wall working h hours. Assuming a constant rate
of painting, that fraction is h/a. That is, the first painter will
paint h/a of the wall in h hours.
Similarly, the second painter will paint h/b of the wall in that time.
So, when will they be done? When the whole wall is painted, which
happens whenever those 2 fractions add up to 1.
You need to solve the following equation:
(h/a) + (h/b) = 1
h*b + h*a = a*b Multiplying through by a*b
h*(b+a) = a*b Factoring out h
h = (a*b)/(a+b) Dividing both sides by b+a
Okay, now say 3 painters could do it in a hours, b hours or c hours,
respectively. Let h be the number of hours they all must work to get
it all painted. The first painter finishes h/a of the wall in that
amount of time. The other 2 painters manage to paint h/b of the wall
and h/c of the wall in that time. Since h is the time to finish the
job, all 3 of these fractions must add up to the whole wall, or 1.
So you have the equation:
h h h
--- + --- + --- = 1
a b c
Solve this for h (start by multiplying through by a*b*c) and you will
get the generalized formula for 3 painters. It's not the formula you
wrote above but I think you can finish it off.

Charlie threw a ball up in the air modeled by the function f(x)=−x2+2x+4. Elizabeth release a balloon at the same time, represented by g(x)=2x. At what time do the paths cross and at what height?
Answer:
after 2 secsStep-by-step explanation:
The paths crossed at when the height are equal i.e when f(x) = g(x)
Given
f(x)=−x^2+2x+4
g(x) = 2x
IF f(x) = g(x), then;
−x^2+2x+4 = 2x
−x^2+2x+4 - 2x = 0
−x^2+4 = 0
-x^2 = -4
x^2 = 4
x = ±√4
x = 2 and -2
Time cannot be negative
Hence x = 2
The path crossed after 2 seconds

If the store paid $75 for a clarinet and sold it for $100, did the store mark up the price by 30%?
Answer:
No
Step-by-step explanation:
30% of $75 is $22.50 (0.3×75=22.5)
$75+$22.50=$97.50, not $100
So, the store did not mark up the price by 30% because the original price ($75) plus 30% more does not equal $100.

There are 3 white counters and 1 black counter in a bag.
I take one of the counters at random.
Put a cross on the probability scale to show the probability
that I have chosen the black counter.
Answer:
0.25
Step-by-step explanation:
3 white counters and 1 black counter,
3+1 = 4
the chances of you choosing the black counter is 1/4
1/4 can also be written as 0.25.
Answer:
The probability of choosing a black counter is 0.25.
Also the picture is attached for the mark on scale.
Step-by-step explanation:
Probability is the likeliness of occurrence of an event.
Given
There are three white and 1 black counter in the bag which means our sample space contains 3+1 = 4 elements
n(S) = 4
Let B be the event that the drawn out counter is black. As there is only one black counter
n(B) = 1
The probability of choosing a black counter is:
[tex]P(B) = \frac{n(B)}{n(S)}\\P(B) = \frac{1}{4} = 0.25[/tex]
Hence,
The probability of choosing a black counter is 0.25.
Also the picture is attached for the mark on scale.
9.6x10^85/3x10^63 in scientific notation
Answer:
3.27*10^22
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the expression 9.6x10^85/3x10^63, we are to write it on scientific notation as shown:
9.6x10^85/3x10^63
= (9.8/3) * (10^85/10^63)
= (9.8/3) * 10^{85-63}
= (9.8/3) *10^22
= 3.27 *10^22
Hence the expression in scientific notation is 3.27*10^22

Identify the graph that displays the speed of a car accelerating onto a highway until it reaches the speed limit, and then continuing on the highway at the speed limit.
Answer: D
Step-by-step explanation:
Graph D shows the car increasing speed over time, then, the flat line shows the car remains at a constant speed. In order for the scenario to apply, there needs to be a line parallel to the x-axis which shows a speed remaining the same over a given amount of time. D is the only graph which has this feature, thus this graph displays the scenario.
Write the decimal equivalent for 6 1/9
Answer: 6.11
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Multiply the whole number by the denominator:
6 × 9 = 54
Step 2: Add the product you got in Step 1 to the numerator:

Find the smallest positive four-digit number that is divisible by each of the four smallest prime numbers.
Answer:
It might be 1,050. Also can't believe thats a college question-
It was very easy to solve! Help from an 8th grader here.
Step-by-step explanation:
The smallest four-digit number that is divisible by each of the four smallest prime numbers is 1050.
What is the divisibility rule?The divisibility rule states that " Divisible By, implies that when two numbers are divided, the result would be a whole number.
The four smallest prime numbers are 2, 3, 5, and 7.
To find the smallest four-digit number that is divisible by each of these numbers, we can start by finding the least common multiple (LCM) of these numbers. The LCM of a set of numbers is the smallest number that is divisible by all of the numbers in the set.
To find the LCM of 2, 3, 5, and 7, we can start by listing the prime factorization of each number:
2 = 2 x 1
3 = 3 x 1
5 = 5 x 1
7 = 7 x 1
Then, we can find the LCM by taking the highest power of each prime that appears in any of the numbers:
LCM(2, 3, 5, 7) = 2¹ x 3¹ x 5¹ x 7¹ = 210
Since we want the "smallest 4-digit number", then it is:
210 x 5 =1050
Therefore, each of the four lowest prime numbers may be divisible by the smallest four-digit number, which is 1050.
