Answer 1

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The following is based on information from The Wolf in the Southwest: The making of an Endangered Species by David E. Brown ( University of Arizona Press). Before 1918the proportion of female wolves in the general population of all southwestern wolves was about 50%. However, after 1918, southwestern cattle ranchers began a widespread effort to destroy wolves. In a recent sample of 34 wolves, there were only 10 females. One theory is that male wolves tend to return sooner than females to their old territories where their predecessors were exterminated. Do these data indicate that the population proportion of female wolves is now less than 50% in the region? Use ∝ = 0.01

Answer:

Since p-value (0.0082) < ∝ ( 0.01 ), we reject null hypothesis.

Therefore, at 0.01 significance level, we have sufficient evidence that the population proportion of female wolves is now less than ( 0.5 ) 50% in the region.

 

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Hypothesis;

H₀ : p ≥ 0.5   { 50% }

H₁ : p < 0.5

This is a lower tailed test { H₁ : p < 0.5 }

sample size n = 34

number of female wolves x = 10

sample proportion p" = x / n = 10 / 34 = 0.2941176

claimed proportion P = 0.5

significance level ∝ = 0.01

we determine the standard deviation of p"

σ[tex]_{p"[/tex] = √[ (p(1 - p)) / n ] = √[ (0.5(1 - 0.5)) / 34 ]

= √[ (0.5 ×0.5) / 34 ]

σ[tex]_{p"[/tex] = 0.08575

Test statistics

[tex]z_{observed[/tex] = (p" - 0.5) / σ[tex]_{p"[/tex]

[tex]z_{observed[/tex] = (0.2941176 - 0.5) / 0.08575

[tex]z_{observed[/tex] = -2.40

so

Test statistic : -2.40  

Since its a lower tailed test;

P-value = P( Z < [tex]z_{observed[/tex] ) = P( Z < -2.40 ) = 0.0082

Rejection criteria: Reject H₀ if p-value < ∝

Decision:

Since p-value (0.0082) < ∝ ( 0.01 ), we reject null hypothesis.

Therefore, at 0.01 significance level, we have sufficient evidence that the population proportion of of female wolves is now less than ( 0.5 ) 50% in the region.

A store made 96 lb of peppermint bark for the holidays. The peppermint bark was split into 3/8 lb portions and boxes. 3/4 of the boxes were sold for $6 each before the holidays. The rest were sold at 2/3 of the pre-holiday price. How much money did the shop receive from the sales of the peppermint bark?

Answers

Answer: The shop has received $ 1724 from the sales of the peppermint bark.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Total quantity of peppermint bark = 96 lb

Number of [tex]\dfrac38[/tex] portions = [tex]96\div\dfrac38 =96\times\dfrac83=256[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac34[/tex] of boxes = [tex]\dfrac34\times256=[/tex] $192

These were sold for $6 each before the holidays.

i.e. Cost of [tex]\dfrac34[/tex]  of boxes = [tex]192\times 6=\$1152[/tex]

2/3 of the pre-holiday price = [tex]\dfrac23\times6=\$9[/tex]

Rest of boxes = 256-192 = 64

Cost of rest of boxes = [tex]9\times64=\$ \ 576[/tex]

Total money received = $1152 + $572

= $ 1724

Hence, the shop has received $ 1724 from the sales of the peppermint bark.

Two angles are supplementary. The larger angle is 6 degrees less than twice the smaller angle. What is the degree measure of the larger angle?​

Answers

Let x = the smaller angle
then 2x + 6 = the larger angle
Since they are comlementary, then their sum is 90°
smaller angle + larger angle = 90°
(x) + (2x+6) = 90
3x + 6 = 90
3x = 84
x = 28 (this is the smaller angle)
the larger angle is 2x + 6 = 2(28) + 6 = 56 + 6 = 62

At a plant that manufactures bars of steel, a machine is used to cut the bars to specific lengths. The machine has a dial that sets the length of the bars to be cut. However, the dial is currently out of alignment and the plant manager is collecting data to assess the situation. The following table shows 8 trials at different dial settings along with the actual output length of the bars that were cut. All measurements are in millimeters.
(a) Use the following grid to construct a scatterplot in which dial setting is the explanatory variable and output length is the response variable. Based on your graph, does a linear model seem appropriate? Justify your answer.
(b) Use the data to construct a least-squares regression line to predict output length from dial setting.
(c) Assume that all conditions for inference are met. Indicate the hypotheses appropriate to test whether there is a linear relationship between output length and dial setting
(d) The test statistic for the appropriate test is t=9.018. Do the data provide convincing statistical evidence that there is a linear relationship between output length and dial setting?

For the plant which manufactures bars of steel, the conclusions are as follows;

A.  The scatter graph is shown.

B.  The equation is y = 2.204 + 1.007x

C.  Null hypotheses (H₀); β = 0

     Alternative hypotheses (Hₐ); β ≠ 0

D.  P-value (0.0001) is less than the significance level (α = 0.05).

What are null hypotheses and alternative hypotheses?

In null hypotheses, there is no relationship between the two phenomenons under the assumption or it is not associated with the group. And in alternative hypotheses, there is a relationship between the two chosen unknowns.

At a plant that manufactures bars of steel, a machine is used to cut the bars to specific lengths.

The machine has a dial that sets the length of the bars to be cut.

The dial is currently out of alignment and the plant manager is collecting data to assess the situation.

The following table shows 8 trials at different dial settings along with the actual output length of the bars that were cut.

All measurements are in millimeters.

Dail setting    Output length

     75                     78

     77                     79

     79                     82

     80                     83

     81                      85

     82                     83

     83                     86

     85                     88

A. The scatter plot is shown below.

Based on the scatter plot, a linear model seems appropriate to the model relationships between the dial setting of the machine and the output length of the steel bar.

The scatter plot shows the strong (r = 0.965), positive, linear association. There do not appear to be any outliners.

B.  From the data to construct a least-squares regression line to predict output length from dial setting. Then

y = (a + bx)

Let x be the dial setting machine and y be the output length of steel bars (in mm).

y = 2.204 + 1.007 x

C.  All conditions for inference are met. Indicate the hypotheses appropriate to test whether there is a linear relationship between output length and dial setting.

Let β be the true slope of the population regression line relating the dial setting of the machine (x) and the output length of the steel bars (y) at the manufacturing plant.

Null hypotheses (H₀) ; β = 0

Alternative hypotheses (Hₐ) ; β ≠ 0

Appropriate test = slope of regression line t-test.

D.  The test statistic for the appropriate test is t = 9.018 with 6 degrees of freedom (7 - 1)

The normal curve is shown;

Using calculator command t-CDF, with the alternative hypotheses as β≠0, then P-value = 0.0001.

In probability notation;

P(b≥0.017) = P(t≥9.018) = 0.00005

P-value = (2) × (0.00005) = 0.0001

P-value = 0.0001

Assume α = 0.05

Since our P-value (0.0001) is less than the significance level (α = 0.05), we do not convince statistical evidence that there is a linear relationship between output length and dial setting.

As the dial setting (x) increases, the output length of the steel bar (y) increases as well.

My summary is on Happy Death Day

Basically there is this girl, she got murdered in the night but before being murdered she spent the entire day being mean and making choices she would later on regret, but when she dies she wakes up again in her room and the same exact things that happened the day the died happened, it was exactly the same. This happened over and over again and she kept dying no matter what she did, it was like a time loop that restarted whenever she was murdered. She had to solve it by killing the one who murdered her or stopping it somehow, she tried everything to avoid being killed. She even got herself sent to jail but still died there, she made a list and tried figuring out who the murderer was. She spent one day being nice to everyone, thinking she had figured out how to stop the murderer because she wanted her day to be great because she thought she wouldnt be killed that night as she thought she knew how to survive. She ate the cupcake her roommate offered her and wasnt murdered that night (the other days she ignored her roommate) Before she went to sleep she said a quote when she was making her Birthday wish (she died on her birthday, hence the name happy death day) "What do you wish for?" "Tomorrow."

"Just...Tomorrow?" "Yeah." She then woke up again in the time loop, and the day repeated. She was confused to why this happened when at the end of the day her roommate offered her the cupcake. She realized the cupcake had poison in it and killed her roommate. But she died again, still in the time loop. She was so confused, all she knew was that her killer wore a mask. Then, after research she figured out it was a mentally ill patient who was killing her. Her best friend (boy friend/guy friend) then  sacrificed himself for her taking the hit so she could live, she finally was able to escape the killer. But she realized, if she broke out of the time loop, it would continue so that her guy friend/boy friend was dead. The one who sacrificed himself for her, so she (I don't want this answer to get taken down for describing what she did, but let's say she died on purpose) And woke up again in the time loop. This time she rushed to kill the patient who had been killing her every night in the time loop, and the time loop was broken. That's the summary.

Write a system of equations that could be used to determine the price of each pound of peaches and the price of each pound of grapes. Define the variables that you use to write the system.

Answers

Answer:

34x + 45y = 192.25

47x + 16y = 208

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x stand for peaches.

Let y stand for grapes.

Since we know that yesterday he sold 35 pounds of peaches ( x ) and 45 pounds of grapes ( y ) for $192.25, we can create an equation to represent this using two variables; peaches and grapes.

We can do the same thing with the amount of peaches and grapes he sold today. Once we make this equation, we will have two equations to make the system of equations to solve for x and y.
