To compute a student's Grade Point Average (GPA) for a term, the student's grades for each course are weighted by the number of credits for the course. Suppose a student had these grades: 3.7 in a 5 credit Math course 1.8 in a 3 credit Music course 2.8 in a 5 credit Chemistry course 2.8 in a 4 credit Journalism course What is the student's GPA for that term
Answer:
2.89, rounded to the nearest hundredth
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that GPA is weighted by credits, we must first multiply each grade by its credit amount and sum those up to weigh the credits. Then, we divide by the total amount of credits to get the GPA per credit.
So, we start with math,
3.7 *5 + 1.8 *3 + 2.8 * 5 + 2.8 * 4 = 49.1 as the total GPA weighted per credit.
Then, to find the average per credit, we divide by the total amount of credits, which is 5 + 3 + 5 + 4 = 17.
Our answer is 49.1/17 = 2.89, rounded to the nearest hundredth

A manufacturer claims that the mean lifetime,u , of its light bulbs is 51 months. The standard deviation of these lifetimes is 7 months. Sixty bulbs are selected at random, and their mean lifetime is found to be 53 months. Can we conclude, at the 0.1 level of significance, that the mean lifetime of light bulbs made by this manufacturer differs from 51 months?
Perform a two-tailed test. Then fill in the table below.
Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places, and round your responses as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
the null hypothesis:
The alternative hypotehsis:
The type of test statistic (choose Z, t, Chi-square, or F)
The value of the test statistic (round to at least three decimal places:
Can we conclude that the mean lifetime of the bulbs made by this manufacture differ from 51 months?
Answer:
We reject H₀, and conclude thet the mean lifetime of the bulbs differ from 51 month
Step-by-step explanation:
Manufacturing process under control must produce items that follow a normal distribution.
Manufacturer information:
μ = 51 months mean lifetime
σ = 7 months standard deviation
Sample Information:
x = 51 months
n = 60
Confidence Interval = 90 %
Then significance level α = 10 % α = 0.1 α/2 = 0,05
Since it is a manufacturing process the distribution is a normal distribution, and with n = 60 we should use a Z test on two tails.
Then from z- table z(c) for α = 0,05 is z(c) = 1.64
Hypothesis Test:
Null Hypothesis H₀ x = μ
Alternative Hypothesis Hₐ x ≠ μ
To calculate z statistics z(s)
z(s) = ( x - μ ) / σ /√n
z(s) = ( 53 - 51 ) / 7 /√60
z(s) = 2 * 7.746 / 7
z(s) = 2.213
Comparing z(s) and z(c)
z(s) > z(c) then z(s) is in the rejection region
We reject H₀, and conclude thet the mean lifetime of the bulbs differ from 51 month
Assume that both populations are normally distributed.
a. Test whether u1≠ u2 at the alpha=0.05 level of signifigance for the given sample data. (u= population mean, sorry couldnt insert the symbol). Determine p value. Should the null hypothesis be rejected?
b. Construct a 95% confidence interval about μ1−μ2. at the alphα=0.05 level of significance for the given sample data.
Population 1 Population 2
n 18 18
x 12.7 14.6
s 3.2 3.8
Answer:
Fail to reject the null hypothesis
[tex]CI = (-4.278, 0.478)[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
[tex]n_1=n_2 = 18[/tex]
[tex]\bar x_1 = 12.7[/tex] [tex]\bar x_2 = 14.6[/tex]
[tex]\sigma_1 = 3.2[/tex] [tex]\sigma_2 = 3.8[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Solving (a): Test the hypothesis
We have:
[tex]H_o : \mu_1 - \mu_2 = 0[/tex]
[tex]H_a : u1 - u2 \ne 0[/tex]
Calculate the pooled standard deviation
[tex]s_p = \sqrt\frac{(n_1-1)\sigma_1^2 + (n_2-1)\sigma_2^2}{n_1+n_2-2}}[/tex]
[tex]s_p = \sqrt\frac{(18-1)*3.2^2 + (18-1)*3.8^2}{18+18-2}}[/tex]
[tex]s_p = \sqrt\frac{419.56}{34}}[/tex]
[tex]s_p = \sqrt{12.34}[/tex]
[tex]s_p = 3.51[/tex]
Calculate test statistic
[tex]t = \frac{x_1 - x_2}{s_p*\sqrt{1/n_1 + 1/n_2}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{12.7 - 14.6}{3.51 *\sqrt{1/18 + 1/18}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-1.9}{3.51 *\sqrt{1/9}}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-1.9}{3.51 *1/3}[/tex]
[tex]t = \frac{-1.9}{1.17}[/tex]
[tex]t = -1.62[/tex]
From the t table, the p value is:
[tex]p = 0.114472[/tex]
[tex]p > \alpha[/tex]
i.e.
[tex]0.114472 > 0.05[/tex]
So, the conclusion is that: we fail to reject the null hypothesis.
Solving (b): Construct 95% degree freedom
[tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]
Calculate the degree of freedom
[tex]df = n_1 + n_2 - 2[/tex]
[tex]df = 18+18 - 2[/tex]
[tex]df = 34[/tex]
From the student t table, the t value is:
[tex]t = 2.032244[/tex]
The confidence interval is calculated as:
[tex]CI = (x_1 - x_2) \± s_p * t * \sqrt{1/n_1 + 1/n_2}[/tex]
[tex]CI = (12.7 - 14.6) \± 3.51 * 2.032244 * \sqrt{1/18 + 1/18}[/tex]
[tex]CI = (12.7 - 14.6) \± 3.51 * 2.032244 * \sqrt{1/9}[/tex]
[tex]CI = (12.7 - 14.6) \± 3.51 * 2.032244 * 1/3[/tex]
[tex]CI = -1.90 \± 2.378[/tex]
Split
[tex]CI = (-1.90 - 2.378, -1.90 + 2.378)[/tex]
[tex]CI = (-4.278, 0.478)[/tex]
Which side lengths form a right triangle?
Answer: A and C
Step-by-step explanation: To see if it can be the side lengths of a right triangle we have to use the Pythagoras Theorem which is [tex]a^2 +b^2 = c^2\\[/tex]
C is always the largest length. Now we can sub the numbers in
[tex]5^2+\sqrt{6} ^2=\sqrt{31} ^2[/tex]
The squares and the square roots cancel each other out so we end up with
25+6=31
this is true so those are possible sides for a right triangle
Now for b:
[tex]\sqrt{5}^2 + \sqrt{5}^2 =50^2[/tex]
Again the squares and square roots cancel each other out
5+5=2500
This isn't true so it isn't the possible sides for a right triangle
Finally option C:
[tex]9^2+12^2=15^2[/tex]
81+144=225
225=225
This is true so it can be the side lengths that form a right triangle

What is one way to determine if two fractions are equivalent?
Answer
Two fractions are equivalent fractions when they represent the same part of a whole. Since equivalent fractions do not always have the same numerator and denominator, one way to determine if two fractions are equivalent is to find a common denominator and rewrite each fraction with that denominator.
1. Calculate the variance of the set of data to two decimal places.
{ 1,2,4,4,5,6,6}
a. 22
b. 4
c.3.14
d. 1/7
e.2
============================================================
Explanation:
First we need the arithmetic mean
Add up the values to get 1+2+4+4+5+6+6 = 28
Divide this over the number of values (n = 7) to get 28/n = 28/7 = 4
The mean is 4.
Next, we subtract the mean from each data value and square the difference
(1-4)^2 = 9(2-4)^2 = 4(4-4)^2 = 0(4-4)^2 = 0(5-4)^2 = 1(6-4)^2 = 4(6-4)^2 = 4Add up those results: 9+4+0+0+1+4+4 = 22
Lastly, we divide over the number of items (n = 7) to get the population variance: 22/n = 22/7 = 3.14 approximately
----------
Side note:
If you wanted the sample variance, then you divide over n-1 = 7-1 = 6
22/(n-1) = 22/6 = 3.67 is the approximate sample variance

Can you help me with this question? 15 points and brainliest if right!
Answer:
3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
because it is a linear function it means it has the same slope in every point
so you have to take 2 points and find the slope
I take points (0,1) and (4,4)
m = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
note that it does not matter which points you chose to be second or first
m = (4-1) / (4-0) = 3/4
you can solve it from the graph too 3/4 is y/x it means for every 4 unit right move 3 units up

The Fourier series expansion of f(x) is
[tex]\displaystyle\frac{a_0}2+\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^\infty \left(a_n\cos\left(\frac{2\pi nx}P\right)+b_n\sin\left(\frac{2\pi nx}P\right)\right)[/tex]
where P = 4 is the period of f(x), and the coefficients are
[tex]a_0=\displaystyle\frac2P\int_{-2}^2f(x)\,\mathrm dx=2[/tex]
[tex]a_n=\displaystyle\frac2P\int_{-2}^2f(x)\cos\left(\frac{2\pi nx}P\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{2\sin(n\pi)}{n\pi}=0[/tex]
[tex]b_n=\displaystyle\frac2P\int_{-2}^2f(x)\sin\left(\frac{2\pi nx}P\right)\,\mathrm dx=\frac{2(\cos(n\pi)-1)}{n\pi}=\begin{cases}0&\text{for }n=2k\\-\frac4{(2k-1)\pi}&\text{for }n=2k-1\end{cases}[/tex]
(where k is a positive integer)
The series for f(x) reduces to
[tex]\displaystyle f(x)=1-\displaystyle\sum_{k=1}^\infty \frac4{(2k-1)\pi}\sin\left(\frac{\pi(2k-1)x}2\right)[/tex]
(I've attached a plot showing the original function in blue and the Fourier expansion with k = 10 terms)

Answer:-244
Step-by-step explanation:
I think you subtract -290 from -46.
Sorry If I am wrong.
========================================================
Explanation:
Imagine reflecting everything so that location A is above location B. Effectively all you're doing is erasing the negative signs.
That would place A at 290 feet and B would be at 46 feet. The difference in elevation is 290-46 = 244 feet
Instead of reflecting, you can turn the page upside down and just ignore the negative signs, and then subtract like normal.
This trick only works if both elevations A and B are below sea level.
--------
Or you could subtract like so:
|A-B| = |-290-(-46)| = |-290+46| = |-244| = 244
The absolute value is used to ensure the result is not negative. A negative difference makes no sense. In this case, "difference" and "distance" mean the same thing more or less.

Type I error (alpha error)
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that a TYPE 1 ERROR is a type of research error often referred to as false positive or alpha error and happens when a researcher wrongly rejects a true null hypothesis. This action by the researcher verifies a statistically significant difference even though there is no difference.
Hence, considering the situation described in the question above, the correct answer to the question is "TYPE 1 ERROR"
If y = 8 cm, what is the area of the blue section of this shape?
Answer:
56 cm squared
Step-by-step explanation:
First things first: Cop one triangle off the rectangle, and attach it to the other one, so the shape looks like a L
Now I can actually solve this:
The left side is 8 cm (because y = 8 cm)
The top is 10 cm
The middle is 6 cm
The inside left is 3 cm
And the very bottom is 2 cm
First, we'll solve for the newly constructed rectangle: 3 x 2. That equals 6.
Next, solve for the longer rectangle: 10 x 5. That's 50.
Now, add the two areas, and we get 56. So the area of the whole thing is 56 cm squared.
(Please keep in mind that I could be wrong, so double check it for me, thanks!)

The ration of men to women in a community is 25:12.If there are 240 women..(i) how many men are in the community?..(ii) What is the total number of people in the community?
Answer:
500 men
740 total people in community
Step-by-step explanation:
25:12 ratio
When using a ratio both sides should go up the same amount of times to get the number you are trying to reach. Since the women's amount was 240 we need to find the times it took to get from 12 to 240. You take the 240 and divide by 12. We find that the 12 was multiplied 20 times to get to 240. So you turn to the men's side and find the amount using the 25. We use X to signify the amount we are trying to find and the amount of times that 25 goes into X will be 20 to keep the ratio of men to women as specified. When solving for X you multiply both sides of the equation by 25 to find the amount. X will equal 500 (=20*25).
Then 240 women plus 500 men equals to 740 people in the community.
Women
240/12 = 20
Men
X/25=20
X=20*25
X=500
240 women+500 men=740 people

What is the domain of the function graphed below?
Answer:
x < 7
Step-by-step explanation:
the domain of a function defines the valid x values for the function.
as we go from left to right through all possible values of x, we see all values incl. x=-1 are creating a valid function result (y) for this function. until we reach x=7.
the empty ball indicates that there is no y value defined here. and for any value x>7 there is no y value defined.
so, x < 7 is the right one.
