The federal government would like to test the hypothesis that the average age of men filing for Social Security is higher than the average age of women with the following data: Men Women Sample mean 64.5 years 63.6 years Sample size 35 39 Population standard deviation 3.0 years 3.5 years If Population 1 is defined as men and Population 2 is defined as women, the 90% confidence interval for the difference in population means is (closest to) ________. Group of answer choices

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The 90% confidence interval is  [tex] -0.3433<  \mu_1 - \mu_2 < 2.1433[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample mean for men is  [tex]\= x_1 = 64.5 \ years[/tex]

    The sample mean for women is  [tex]\= x_2 = 63.6 \ years[/tex]

     The sample size for men  is   [tex]n_1 = 35[/tex]

      The sample size for women is  [tex]n_2 = 39[/tex]

      The standard deviation for men is [tex]s_1 = 3.0[/tex]

       The standard deviation for women is  [tex]s_2 = 3.5[/tex]

From the question we are told the confidence level is  90% , hence the level of significance is    

      [tex]\alpha = (100 - 90 ) \%[/tex]

=>   [tex]\alpha = 0.10[/tex]

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value  of  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] is  

   [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.645 [/tex]

Generally the standard error is mathematically represented as

     [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{s_1^2 }{n_1} + \frac{s_2^2}{n_2} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]SE = \sqrt{\frac{3^2 }{35} + \frac{3.5^2}{39} }[/tex]

=>  [tex]SE = 0.7558[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

       [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * SE[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 1.645 * 0.7558[/tex]

=>     [tex]E = 1.2433[/tex]

Generally 90% confidence interval is mathematically represented as  

      [tex](\= x_1 - \= x_2) -E <  \mu_1 - \mu_2 <  (\= x_1 - \= x_2) -E [/tex]

=>    [tex](64.5 - 63.6) -1.2433<  \mu_1 - \mu_2 <(64.5 - 63.6) +1.2433[/tex]

=>    [tex] -0.3433<  \mu_1 - \mu_2 < 2.1433[/tex]

8of Paulina's suitcase. How many pounds does Rebecca's suitcase weigh?

Answers

Answer:

4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Paulina has a suitcase full of clothes that weighs 4 4/7pounds. Rebecca has a suitcase full of clothes that weighs

7/8 of Paulina's suitcase. How many pounds does Rebecca's suitcase weigh?

Weight of Paulina's suitcase = 4 4/7 pounds = 32/7 pounds

Weight of Rebecca's suitcase = 7/8 of Paulina's suitcase

Hence, the weight of Rebecca's suitcase in pounds = 7/8 of 32/7 pounds

= 7/8 × 32/7

= 4 pounds

Therefore, Rebecca's suitcase weighs 4 pounds.

The proportions of blood types O, A, B, and AB in the general population of a particular country are known to be in the ratio 49:38:9:4, respectively. A research team, investigating a small isolated community in the country, obtained the following frequencies (i.e. observed number of cases) of blood type.
Blood type O A B AB
Frequency 87 59 20 4
Test the hypothesis that the proportions in this community do not differ significantly from those in the general population.

Answers

Answer:

The proportions differ significantly from those in the general population.

Step-by-step explanation:

We state our null and alternative hypotheses as

H0: p1= 49/100, p2= 38/100, p3= 9/100 and p4= 4/100 for a multinomial distribution involving four categories and n= 170

against

Ha: pi≠ pi0 for at least one value of i= 1,2,3,4

The significance level is set at ∝= 0.05

The test statistic under H0 is

χ² = ∑ (Oi- ei)²/ei

which has approximate chi square distribution with 3d.f  (n-1)

Computations: Under H0 the expected frequencies are

np10= Blood type O = 170 * 49/100= 83.3

np20 = Blood type A = 170 * 38/100= 64.6

np30 = Blood type B = 170 * 20/100= 11.76

np40 = Blood type AB = 170 * 4/100= 2.35

The value of χ² is computed as follows

Cell       Observed         Estimated        (Oi-ei)            (Oi-ei)²   (Oi-ei)²/ei

             Frequency      Frequency  

               Oi                    ei

1             87                        83.3               3.7               13.69        0.157

2            59                      64.6              -5.6                 31.36       0.531

3             20                     34                  -14                   196           9.8

4               4                      6.8                -2.8                  7.84         1.96      

∑             170                    188.7                                                  χ²= 12.43  

The critical region is χ²≥ χ²(0.05,3) = 7.82 for alpha = 0.05 and

χ²≥ χ²(0.01,3) = 11.34  for alpha = 0.01

As the calculated value lies in the critical region for both value of alpha we reject our null hypothesis and accept our alternate hypothesis. The proportions differ significantly from those in the general population.

3rd night, he reads 16 pages.

4th night he reads 19 pages.

5th night, he reads 22 pages.

Shirabi spent $208 on a sewing machine to make purses. She spends a total of $10 on thread, fabric, and accessories for each purse and plans to charge $36 for each purse. The equation represents her break-even point, when x represents the number of purses sold.

208 + 10x = 36x

How many purses must she sell in order to break even?

A. 5
B. 6
C. 7
D. 8

Answers

Answer:

The correct answer is: Option D: 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that she spent $208 on the sewing machines

And

the equation for profits to break even is:

208 + 10x = 36x

In order to find the number of purses to break even, we have to find the value of x

So,

[tex]208+10x=36x[/tex]

Subtracting 10x from both sides

[tex]208+10x-10x = 36x-10x\\208 = 26x[/tex]

Dividing both sides by 26

[tex]\frac{208}{26} = \frac{26x}{26}\\x = 8[/tex]

The number of purses is 8

Hence,

The correct answer is: Option D: 8

Answer:

D is correct.
