An educational researcher claims that the average GPA of graduate students at FIU is less than 3.5 . To test his claim he collected data on 81 graduate students . The sample mean GPA was 3.25 with a standard deviation of 0.3 . What is the value of the test statistic to test this claim

Answers

Answer 1

The value of the test statistic to test the claim of comparison of average GPA is found to be -0.83 approximately.

How to find the z score (z statistic) for the sample mean?

If we're given that:

Sample mean = [tex]\overline{x}[/tex]Sample size = n Population mean (hypothesized)= [tex]\mu[/tex]Sample standard deviation = s

Then, we get:

[tex]z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}[/tex]

If the sample standard deviation is not given, then we can estimate it by:

[tex]s = \dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}[/tex]

where [tex]\sigma[/tex] = population standard deviation

For this case, since the sample size is 81 > 30, and we want to compare the mean (population mean) with some hypothesized mean (3.5 here), therefore, we can use one-sample z-test, which has the aforesaid test statistic.

We're provided that:

n = sample size = 81sample mean = [tex]\overline{x}[/tex] = 3.25sample standard deviation = s  = 0.3hypothesized population mean with which comparison is done = [tex]\mu= 3.5[/tex]

Thus, we get:

[tex]z = \dfrac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s} = \dfrac{3.25 - 3.5}{0.3} \approx -0.83[/tex]

Thus, the value of the test statistic to test the claim of comparison of average GPA is found to be -0.83 approximately.

Assume the radius of a circle is
unit

What is the area of the circle? What is the circumference?

How many radii are needed to wrap completely around the circle? Express your answer as a decimal approximation and as an exact value.

Does the size of the circle matter? That is, does the number of radii needed to wrap completely around the circle change as the radius of the circle gets larger or smaller? Why does this make sense?

Exactly how many radians are in
? In

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

They want you to see how radius is important.  Just remember that one radian is one radius,  that should help  you see why radius is important.

They ask for the unit circle ,  that is a circle of one unit for the radius,  which makes it super easy to calculate things for it,  they ask what is the area, which is that famous formula, π[tex]r^{2}[/tex] ,  then they ask what's its circumference.  which is that other famous formula  2πr

so to go all the way around a circle of one unit radius,  it's  2π  exactly or about 6.28..... units,   call it meters, or feet or inches, it doesn't mater here.

the size of the circle doesn't matter here either,  b/c we are using the radius ,  that relaationship doesn't change ,  all circles,  what ever size , have this same relationship between the radius and radians.    :P  this is handy.

Judging by appearance, is it reasonable to say that the figures below are similar? How do you know?

Answers

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

the proportions all seem to stay the same, so while the second figure is smaller, all parts of the figures seem to follow the same scaling factor.

there are 8 isoceles triangle "rays" emanating from a central circle in both figures. so, also the main characteristics are the same.

the smaller figure appears rotated compared to the other.

so, it was rotated and then dilated (or vice versa, as the sequence of these 2 operations is irrelevant).

Your friend asks you to help him study and will pay you 5 dimes the first time you help him. You agree to help if he multiplies your payment by 5 for each study session. After 2 study sessions, you will receive 25 dimes, and after 3 study sessions, you will receive 125 dimes.

Complete and solve the equation that finds the number of dimes he will pay you after the 7th study session.

Answers

Answer:

78125 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

The payment for sessions makes a series

5 dimes, 5*5 = 25 dimes, 25*5 = 125 dimes, ...

This series is GP with the first term of 5 and common ratio of 5.

The nth term would be

[tex]t_n=5*5^{n-1}[/tex]

Use the equation above and find the 7th term

[tex]t_7=5*5^6 = 5^7 = 78125[/tex]

Answer:

[tex]a_7=5(5)^{6}[/tex]

78125 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

The given scenario can be modeled as a geometric sequence.

A geometric sequence has a common ratio (multiplier) between each term, so each term is multiplied by the same number.

General form of a geometric sequence:

   [tex]a_n=ar^{n-1}[/tex]

where:

n is the nth terma is the first termr is the common ratio

Given:

The friend will pays 5 dimes the first time you help him.

Therefore, a = 5

Given:

The friend multiplies your payment by 5 for each study session.

Therefore, r = 5

Substitute these values into the formula to create an equation for the nth term.

[tex]\implies a_n=5(5)^{n-1}[/tex]

To find the number of dimes he will pay after 7 sessions, simply substitute n = 7 into the found equation:

[tex]\implies a_7=5(5)^{7-1}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=5(5)^{6}[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=5 \cdot 15625[/tex]

[tex]\implies a_7=78125[/tex]

Therefore, the friend will pay 78125 dimes after the 7th study session.

The average monthly temperature in New Orleans, LA has a mean absolute deviation of 43.5*F what conclusion can you make about the average monthly temperatures in New Orleans, La.

Answers

The average monthly temperature in New Orleans, LA  varies on average about 43.5°F from its monthly mean temperature.

How to find the mean absolute deviation of a discrete data?

Suppose the data specified is of n sized as

[tex]x_1, x_2, \cdots , x_n[/tex]

Let this data's mean be  [tex]\bar{x}[/tex]

Then, the mean absolute deviation of this data is the mean of the absolute differences of the observations from the mean of the data they belong to.

It is calculated as:

[tex]M.A.D = \dfrac{\sum_{i=1}^n|x_i-\bar{x}|}{n}[/tex]

So, Mean Absolute deviation is the average of the deviation (not caring if its above or below the mean) of the data values.

Since it is given that:

Mean absolute deviation of the temperatures (monthly) in New Orleans = 43.5°F, therefore, it means, the temperature averagely varies  43.5°F from its monthly average value.

where mean shows the average monthly temperature in New Orleans, LA.

Thus, the average monthly temperature in New Orleans, LA  varies on average about 43.5°F from its mean temperature.
