Many track runners believe that they have a better chance of winning if they start in the inside lane that is closest to the field. For the data below, the lane closest to the field is Lane 1, the next lane is Lane 2, and so on until the outermost lane, Lane 6. The data lists the number of wins for track runners in the different starting positions. Calculate the chi-square test statistic to test the claim that the number of wins is uniformly distributed (equally likely) across the different starting positions.

Answer 1

This question is incomplete, the complete question is;

Many track runners believe that they have a better chance of winning if they start in the inside lane that is closest to the field. For the data below, the lane closest to the field is Lane 1, the next lane is Lane 2, and so on until the outermost lane, Lane 6. The data lists the number of wins for track runners in the different starting positions. Calculate the chi-square test statistic to test the claim that the number of wins is uniformly distributed (equally likely) across the different starting positions. The results are based on 240 races.

starting position:    1       2      3       4      5       6

Number of wins :  44    33     50    32    45    36

options

a) 15.541

b) 9.326

c) 6.750

d) 12.592

Answer:

the chi-square test statistic is 6.75

Option c) 6.750 is the correct answer

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

starting position:    1       2      3       4      5       6

Number of wins :  44    33     50    32    45    36

Given that we have 240 races

Using x² test.

we have to calculate the expected frequency

so

E(1) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

E(2) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

E(3) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

E(4) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

E(5) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

E(6) = 240 × 1/6 = 40

Now we know that,

x²_cal = [∑( Oi - Fi)²] / Fi

so

x²_cal  = (44-40)²/40 + (33-40)²/40 + (50-40)²/40 + (32-40)²/40 + (45-40)²/40 + (35-40)²/40

= 0.4 + 1.225 + 2.5 + 1.6 + 0.625 + 0.4

=  6.75

Therefore the chi-square test statistic is 6.75

Option c) 6.750 is the correct answer

If the object moves right, which of the following is a possible value of F?

5 N
6 N
7 N
8 N

Answers

Answer:

So you have a box, with weight Wb and you have a right force of 6N and a left force of Fl

With sum of forces you get that to maintain equilibrium the force Fl must be 6 therfore to maintain moving right the left force must be 5N

Rate positively and give brainlist

Answer:

The answer is 5n

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the force on the right would have to be greater, and the force on the right is 6n, the left force would have to be less. Therefore, the answer is 5n.

Answers

Answer: 500

Step-by-step explanation: use the equation y=mx+b.

B = cost of the plan per month

X = number of minutes

M = price per minute

The first plan is a flat rate of $25 a month. Whereas the second is $10 plus $0.05 a minute.

Plug in the answers until you get a price that is equal to $25.

Y = 0.05(300) + 10

Y = 25

therefore after 300 minutes the other plan is cheaper

Answers

The equation of the line is y = -1/3 x.

To find the equation of a line, you first have to find the gradient, which is 1--1 / -3-3


So, the gradient is -1/3


Then, substitute one five point into he equation y-y1= m(x-x1) (where m is the gradient)

sub (3,-1)


y+1= -1/3(x-3)


Expand the brackets


y+1= -1/3x+1


Take 1 to the other side as a negative number


So, the line's equation is y=-1/3x

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Split the shape into normal shapes such as a rectangle and two triangles

use there formulas for area for each shape

rectangle L x W

10 x 3 = 30

for triangles it’s side a times the base divided by 2

5 x 10 / 2 = 25

so it’s 50 because there is two triangles

add 50 and 30

so it’s 80ft so C

4(x-3)=9 what is the first step

Answers

Answer:

x= 5.25

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to get x alone, so do inverse operations.

(Basically, reverse what it is)

4(x-3)=9

divide 4 by both sides to get rid of 4 on left side

9/4 = 2.25

(x-3) = 2.25

Now add 3 to both sides, to get x alone

2.25 + 3 = 5.25

x=5.25

Check work

4(5.25-3) = 9

4(2.25) = 9

9=9

a graph represents a relation that is also a function if only and if every ___ intersects the graph ___ once

Answers

Answer:

A graph represents a relation that is also a function if only and if every vertical line intersects the graph at most once.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical line test should be used to get an idea about the nature of a graph whether it represents a function or not. A vertical line must not intersect the graph multiple times as it would violate the definition of a function.

If a vertical line intersects the graph multiple times, it means the graph is having the same repeated inputs, which is against the definition of a function. A function can not have repeated input values.

Thus, we conclude that a graph represents a relation that is also a function if only and if every vertical line intersects the graph at most once.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given vertices of a triangle:

[tex] (x_2, y_2) = (1, 0) [/tex]

[tex] (x_3, y_3) = (9, 5) [/tex]

Using the centroid formula:

[tex] (x, y) = (\frac{x_1 + x_2 + x_3}{3}, \frac{y_1 + y_2 + y_3}{3}) [/tex]

Find the area of the surface. The part of the surface z = xy that lies within the cylinder x2 + y2 = 36.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

The domain D of integration in polar coordinates can be represented by:

D = {(r,θ)| 0 ≤ r ≤ 6, 0 ≤ θ ≤ 2π) &;

The partial derivates for z = xy can be expressed  as:

[tex]y =\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x} , x = \dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y}[/tex]

Thus, the area of the surface is as follows:

[tex]\iint_D \sqrt{(\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial x})^2+ (\dfrac{\partial z}{\partial y})^2 +1 }\ dA = \iint_D \sqrt{(y)^2+(x)^2+1 } \ dA[/tex]

[tex]= \iint_D \sqrt{x^2 +y^2 +1 } \ dA[/tex]

[tex]=2 \pi \int^{6}_{0} \ r \sqrt{r^2 +1 } \ dr[/tex]

[tex]= 2 \pi \begin {bmatrix} \dfrac{1}{3}(r^2 +1) ^{^\dfrac{3}{2}} \end {bmatrix}^6_0[/tex]
