Consider the population of "last-minute" filers who mail their tax return during the last five days of the income tax period (typically April 10 to April 15).

a. A researcher suggests that a reason individuals wait until the last five days is that on average these individuals receive lower refunds than do early filers. Develop appropriate hypotheses such that rejection of H0 will support the researcherâs contention.
b. For a sample of 400 individuals who filed a tax return between April 10 and 15, the sample mean refund was $910. Based on prior experience a population standard deviation of Ï = $1600 may be assumed. What is the p-value?
c. At α = .05, what is your conclusion?
d. Repeat the preceding hypothesis test using the critical value approach.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Solution:

Develop hypothesis:

H₀ : µ ≥ 1056

H₁ < 1056

Given:

n = 400

ẋ = 910

∂ = 1600

a = 0.05

The sampling distribution of sample means µ and standard deviation ∂ / √n.

Z = ẋ-µ /∂ / √n.

  = 910 – 1056 / 1600 /√400.

 = - 1.83

Probability: p = p(z< -1.83) = 0.033

At a = 0.05

If p value is smaller than significance level a, then hypothesis is rejected.

P < 0.05 its means H0 rejected.

Hypothesis test using critical value:

The critical value corresponding to probability of 0.05:

Z = -1.645

The rejection region, then contains all values smaller than -1.645.

If value of test statistics is within the rejection region, then null hypothesis rejected.

-1.83 < -1.645

Rejected H

Find m\angle Am∠Am, angle, A. Note that m\angle Am∠Am, angle, A is acute. Round to the nearest degree. \Large{^\circ} ∘ degrees

Answers

Answer:

The answer is that the measure of ∠α is ≈ 20° when rounded to the nearest °

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the measure of ∠α you need to use the reciprocal of the formula for the law of sine which says that a/Sinα = b/Sinβ = c/Sin C. The reciprocal of this gives the new equation that states Sinα/a = Sinβ/b = Sin C/c, and this will help you to find the measure of the missing angle in °'s.

In the triangle line segment BC = 5units is opposite to point A & ∠α. Line segment AC = 7units  is opposite of point and ∠β which is = 28°. And finally, the hypotenuse length and the values of point C & ∠C are unknown, so they aren't important to solving the problem. Knowing all this you can plug in all the known values into the new formula, and start working on figuring things out.

To find the measure ∠α, you first write down everything, putting things into their proper places, so since you're solving for sinα you want the equation to look like this:

sinα/5 = sin28°/7

Then for the second step, you want to isolate the sinα. (To get it by itself × both left and righthand sides by 5 to begin simplifying).

This leaves you with :

sinα = sin28°÷7 · (5)    [And allows you to now solve for the right side of the equation, bringing us to our third step which is to once again simplify. So what you want to do is whip out your calculator and set it to degree mode, so you can find the of sin28° which is = 0.46947156278. Then ÷ that by 7, which will get you a number = 0.06706736611. Finally, take 0.06706736611 × 5,  and you will get the value = 0.33533683056, as your final answer in the third step]

Your equation should now look something like this :

sinα = 0.06706736611 × 5 or 0.33533683056

Moving onto the fourth step, you need to use the inverse of the trig function of sin to get your absolute value. (remember the inverse of sine or acrsin = sin^-1) Here you will need to multiply sin^-1 by 0.33533683056.

And also by now, you'll want to stop writing the equation as sinα = sin^-1 ×

0.33533683056, otherwise you won't get an answer, instead, you'll need to write:

α = sin^-1 × 0.33533683056

So once you do that for the fifth and final step, you'll need to simplify the equation on the righthand side one last time, and you should get the answer of α = 19.5930217327°. Which when rounded to the nearest ° is ≈ 20°.

HURRY!!!!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation: C. 2x+3=1/2(4x+2)+2 hopes this helps:)

The equations that are identities are option B x – 4(x + 1) = –3(x + 1) + 1 and option C 2x + 3 = 1/2(4x + 2) + 2.

To check which equation is an identity, we need to simplify each equation and see if it is true for all values of x.

A. 3(x – 1) = x + 2(x + 1) + 1


Expanding the right side:
3(x – 1) = x + 2x + 2 + 1
3x – 3 = 3x + 3-3 = 3

This is a contradiction and cannot be true for any value of x. Therefore, option A is not an identity.

B. x – 4(x + 1) = –3(x + 1) + 1
Expanding both sides:
x – 4x – 4 = –3x – 3 + 1
-3x – 3 = -3x – 3

This equation simplifies to -3x - 3 = -3x - 3, which is true for all values of x. Therefore, option B is an identity.

Similarly,

Option C is an identity.

Option D is not an identity.

A store is having a sale on almonds and jelly beans. For 2 kilograms of almonds and 3 kilograms of jelly beans, the total cost is $11. For 6 kllograms of almonds and 5 kilograms of jelly beans, the total cost is $23. Find the cost for each kilogram of almonds and each kilogram of jelly beans.
Find cost for each kilogram of almonds :?
Ans find the cost for each kilogram of jelly beans :?

Answers

Answer:

The cost of each kg of almonds is $1.75

The cost of each kg of jelly beans is $2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use the system of linear equations to solve the question

Assume that the cost of 1 kg of almonds is $x, and the cost of 1 kg of jelly beans is $y

∵ For 2 kilograms of almonds and 3 kilograms of jelly beans,

   the total cost is $11

→ Multiply 2 by x and 3 by y, then equate their sum by 11

2x + 3y = 11 ⇒ (1)

∵ For 6 kilograms of almonds and 5 kilograms of jelly beans, the

   total cost is $23

→ Multiply 6 by x and 5 by y, then equate their sum by 23

6x + 5y = 23 ⇒ (2)

Now we need to solve this system of equations to find the values of x and y

→ Multiply equation (1) by -3 to make the coefficient of x in it equals

  the coefficient of x in equation (2) in values and differences in signs

∵ -3(2x) + -3(3y) = -3(11)

-6x + -9y = -33 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3) to eliminate x

∵ (6x + - 6x) + (5y - 9y) = (23 + -33)

∴ -4y = -10

→ Divide both side by -4 to find the value of y

∵  [tex]\frac{-4y}{-4}=\frac{-10}{-4}[/tex]

y = 2.5

→ Substitute the value of y in equation (1) to find x

∵ 2x + 3(2.5) = 11

∴ 2x + 7.5 = 11

→ Subtract 7.5 from both sides

∵ 2x + 7.5 - 7.5 = 11 - 7.5

∴ 2x = 3.5

→ Divide both sides by 2 to find the value of x

∵ [tex]\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{3.5}{2}[/tex]

x = 1.75

∵ x represents the cost of 1 kg of almonds

The cost of each kg of almonds is $1.75

∵ y represents the cost of 1 kg of jelly beans

The cost of each kg of jelly beans is $2.5

A researcher wants to test to see if husbands are significantly older than their wives. To do this, he collects the ages of husbands and pairs them with the ages of their respective wives for a random set of married couples. Suppose that data were collected for a random sample of 12 couples, where each difference is calculated by subtracting the age of the wife from the age of the husband. Assume that the ages are normally distributed. The test statistic is t≈1.434, α=0.05, the corresponding rejection region is t>1.796, the null hypothesis is H0:μd=0, and the alternative hypothesis is Ha:μd>0. Which of the following statements are accurate for this hypothesis test in order to evaluate the claim that the true mean difference between the age of the husband and the age of the wife is greater than zero?

Answer:

The correct option are option 2 and option 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  n = 12  

    The test statistics is  [tex]t \approx 1.434[/tex]

    The level of significance is  [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

    The  rejection region is    t>1.796

   The null hypothesis [tex]H_o: \mu_d=0[/tex]

    The alternative hypothesis is  [tex]H_a : \mu_d >0[/tex]

 From the given values we see that t <  1.796(i.e   1.434 < 1.796 ) which implies that t is not within the rejection region

  Hence we fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is that there is insufficient evidence to suggest that that the husbands are significantly older than the wife.

When it fails, its failure will be a type 1 failure with probability 0.7 and a type 2 failure with probability 0.3. Type 1 failures take an exponential amount of time with mean 1 hour to repair. Type 2 failures take an exponential amount of time with mean 1.25 hours.
