An experimental psychologist plans a study in which a crucial step is offering participants a food reward. It is important that the three food rewards be equal in appeal. Thus, a prestudy was designed in which participants were asked which of the rewards they preferred. Of the 60 participants, 16 preferred cupcakes, 26 preferred candy bars, and 18 favored dried apricots. Do these scores suggest that the different foods are differentially preferred by people in general? (Use the .05 significance level.)
You must use all five steps in hypothesis testing:
Restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations.
Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution.
Determine the cutoff sample score on the comparison distribution at which the null hypothesis should be rejected.
Determine your sample’s score on the comparison distribution.
Decide whether to reject the null hypothesis.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given:

[tex]\mathbf{H_o: there \ is \ no \ significanr \ difference \ between \ observed \ and \ expected \ value }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{H_a: there \ is \ significanr \ difference \ between \ observed \ and \ expected \ value }[/tex]

The characteristic of the comparison is a uniform distribution.

Since there are three categories from the data, then: the data obeys a U(0,3) distribution. However, supposed it happened that different food had the same appeal, thus, there will be uniform distribution in the preference score.

[tex]Degree \ of \ freedom \ df = n - 1 \\ \\ df = 3 - 1 = 2[/tex]

At 0.05;

Thus, at 0.05 and df of 2, the cutoff sample score at which [tex]H_o[/tex] will be reject is the critical value [tex]\mathbf{X_{0.05,2}^2 \ which \ is \ = 5.991}[/tex]

Prefered     Observed    Expected     Expected     (O - E)       (O - E)²/ E

                   frequency   frequency     proportions

Cup cakes           16        20                  0.333          -4.00           0.800

Candy bars          26       20                 0.333             6.00           1.800

Dried apricots      18        20                 0.333            -2.00          0.200

Total                     60       20                     1                 -2.00           2.800

Thus the sample score is [tex]\mathbf{X^2_{observed} = 2.800}[/tex]

Decision rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the observed test statistic is higher than the critical value.

Conclusion: We fail to reject the null hypothesis and conclude that different foods have the same appeal to different people.

Answers

Answer:

.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Bayes' theorem

While s = smoker

n = nonsmoker

D = died

P(s) = .13

P(n) =.87

P(D/s) =0.02

P(D/n) =0.002

P(s/D) = ??

[tex]P(s/D)=\frac{P(s)*P(D/s)}{P(s)*P(D/s)+P(n) *P(D/n)} =\frac{.13*.02}{.13*.02+.87*.002}=.6[/tex]

A scientist wanted to measure the constant rate of the current in a particular section of the river. She released a tracker into the river. The tracker sent her back the following information:
After 3.5 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 5.5 meters.
After 10.9 seconds since the tracker was released into the river the tracker had traveled 16.5 meters.
What is the constant rate of the current?

Answers

Answer:

1.486m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate of change is defined as the change in distance divided by the change in time

Rate = ∆distance/∆time

Distance = 16.5 and 5.5

Time = 10.9 and 3.5

When we put this into the formula above, we have:

Rate of change = 16.5 - 5.5 / 10.9 - 3.5

= 11/7.4

= 1.486m/s

The constant rate of change has been calculated to be equal to 1.486m/s

You can use the fact that the rate of the change of a value when some other independent value changes is the ratio of change in the dependent variable to the change in the independent variable.

The constant rate of the current is given by 1.4865 meters per second.

How to measure the rate of change of something as some other value changes?

Suppose that we have to measure the rate of change of y as x changes, then we have:

[tex]Rate = \dfrac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}[/tex]

where we have

[tex]\rm when \: x=x_1, y = y_1\\when\: x = x_2, y= y_2[/tex]

Remember that, we divide by the change in independent variable so that we get some idea of how much the dependent quantity changes as we change the independent quantity by 1 unit.

(5 change per 3 unit can be rewritten as 5/3 change per 1 unit)

How to measure the constant rate of the current for the given situation?

The distance traveled by the tracker depends on the time passed.

Let the variable "t" tracks the amount of time passed and let the variable "d" tracks the distance traveled by the tracker, then we have:

[tex]\rm At \: t = t_1 = 3.5, d=d_1 = 5.5 \: m\\At \: t = t_2 = 10.9, d = d_2 = 16.5 \: m[/tex]

Thus, the constant rate of current is obtained by

[tex]Rate = \dfrac{d_2 - d_1}{t_2 - t_1} = \dfrac{16.5 - 5.5}{10.9 - 3.5} = \dfrac{11}{7.4} \\\\Rate \approx 1.4865 \: \text{meters per second}[/tex]


Thus,

The constant rate of the current is given by 1.4865 meters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find n(C).
A) 26
B) 14
C) 30
D) 46

Answers

Answer:  D) 46

===========================================================

Explanation:

We have these 8 given facts

N(U) = 147n(A) = 48n(B) = 68n(A ∩ B) = 19n(A ∩ C) = 22n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 10n(A' ∩ B ∩ C') = 39n(A' ∩ B' ∩ C') = 36

Draw out a rectangle to represent the universal set U. Inside this rectangle, draw three overlapping circles. Refer to the diagram below (imagine that none of the values have been written down just yet). These circles are A, B, and C.

Now we'll focus on the 8 facts above. To start off, we'll look at fact 6 which says n(A ∩ B ∩ C) = 10. This means there are 10 items inside all three sets. This is the middle most region where all three circles overlap with one another.

Then move to fact 4 and we see that 19 items are in sets A and B at the same time. Subtract off those 10 items in all three sets and we have 19-10 = 9 items in set A and B, but not set C. We can write this as n(A ∩ B ∩ C') = 9 if you wanted to stay consistent with this math notation. Write "9" in the overlapped region between A and B, but not inside circle C.

Now go to fact 5. We have n(A ∩ C) = 22 telling us there are 22 items in both sets A and C at the same time. Subtract off the 10 in all three sets and we're left with 22-10 = 12 items in set A and set C, but not set B. We can write this as n(A ∩ B' ∩ C) = 12. Write "12" in the region between A and C, but outside of circle B.

If you're stuck anywhere, refer to the diagram below. Imagine that not all of the values have been filled in just yet.

---------------------------

So far you should have the numbers 10, 9 and 12 written in those positions I mentioned. Circle A is mostly filled out. We're missing the region that's inside A but outside both B and C; however, we can find that to be 17. Why is this? Well because n(A) = 48 and the other values (10, 9 and 12) add to 10+9+12 = 31. Then note how 31+17 = 48. So we must have 17 items in circle A but outside the other circles. We can write this as n(A ∩ B' ∩ C') = 17

In short, all of the values in circle A must add to 48. We have 17+10+9+12 = 48.

From fact 7, we can see that n(A' ∩ B ∩ C') = 39 meaning there are 39 items in circle B and not in any other circle. So we'll fill this value in as well.

The last value to fill in is the 36 from fact 8. This goes outside all of the circles.

The venn diagram below shows all of these values filled in that I mentioned so far. The missing two blank regions in circle C can be thought of as one region for the sake of simplicity.

---------------------------

Using that diagram of filled in values, add up every number written down:

17+9+39+12+10+36 = 123

We have 123 items so far in the universal set

We're told that n(U) = 147, meaning there are 147 items total in the universal set.

This must mean that 147-123 = 24 items are in the two blank regions of circle C. We don't need to break down how the 24 splits up.

That 24 adds to the other numbers inside circle C to get to the final answer

12+10+24 = 46

Choice D is the answer.

Side note: you could use n(B) = 68 to help break down those two blank regions of circle C, but that's just unnecessary extra work.

Answers

Answer:

Probability = 0.088 ie 8.8%

Step-by-step explanation:

P (I) = 40% = 0.4

P (L) = 35% = 0.35

P (C) = 25% = 0.25

P (EV / I) = 40% = 0.4

P (EV / L) = 75% = 0.75

P (EV / C) = 65% = 0.65

P (I / EV) = [ P (EV / I) . P (I) ] / [ P ( EV) ]

[ P (EV / I) . P (I) ] / [ P (EV / I) + P (EV / L) + P (C / L)

[(0.4) (0.4)]  / [ 0.4 + 0.75 + 0.65 ]

0.16 / 1.8

= 0.088 ie 8.8%

If a cylinder with height 9 inches and radius rr is filled with water, it can fill a certain pitcher. How many of these pitchers can a cylinder with height 9 inches and radius 3r3r fill?

Answers

Answer:

9 pitchers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Cylinder 1:

[tex]Radius = r[/tex]

[tex]Height = 9[/tex]

Cylinder 2:

[tex]Radius = 3r[/tex]

[tex]Height = 9[/tex]

Required

How many pitchers' cylinder 2 can fill

First, we calculate the volume of both cylinders

Volume is calculated as:

[tex]Volume = \pi r^2h[/tex]

For A:

[tex]V_A = \pi r^2*9[/tex]

[tex]V_A = 9\pi r^2[/tex]

For B:

[tex]V_B = \pi (3r)^2 * 9[/tex]

[tex]V_B = \pi *9r^2 * 9[/tex]

[tex]V_B = 9* 9\pi r^2[/tex]

In (a): [tex]V_A = 9\pi r^2[/tex]

So, we have ve:

[tex]V_B = 9*V_A[/tex]

[tex]V_B = 9V_A[/tex]

If the first cylinder can fill 1, then the second can fill 9 pitchers
