A researcher is exploring the notion that there is an economy of scale in raising children. While having one child might add to a family's financial stress, the second or third one might not be as "expensive" since they would already be sharing one roof, could share clothing, etc. The researcher has access to a large community of parents where 15% have one child under 18 in their home, 65% of parents have two children, and 20% of parents have three or more children. Rounded to the nearest whole number, the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is ________ %?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is 85%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is as follows:

Number of Children        Probability

             1                            0.15

             2                            0.65

          > 3                            0.20

Compute the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home as follows:

P (At least 2 Children) = P (2 children) + P (More than 3 children)

                                   = 0.65 + 0.20

                                   = 0.85

Thus, the probability that any given family who is selected has two or more children at home is 85%.

Answer:

Hello!!! Princess Sakura here ^^

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you know that order pairs go like (x,y) that means that the 12 in (12,y) is the x so if we plug into the equation we can get y...

[tex]y=\frac{2}{3} (12)+ 5\\y=8+5\\y=13[/tex]

So the order pair is (12, 13).

Now for the next one it's the same concept but this time we'll plug in for y because the -2 is in the (x, y) so we have to find the x...

[tex]5x-9(-2)=3\\5x+18=3\\5x=-15\\x=-3[/tex]

So the order pair is (-3, -2).

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  7

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the digits in the given number are significant. There are 7 significant digits.

__

Comment on other cases

When there are non-zero digits to the left of the decimal point in a number with a decimal point, all of the digits are significant.

When there are no non-zero digits to the left of the decimal point, leading zeros are not significant. All digits following the leading zeros are significant.

In a number with no decimal point, the leading and trailing zeros are not significant.

If the number is written in scientific notation, all digits of the mantissa are significant. (This can be a way to ensure the correct number of significant digits is known in a number with trailing zeros.)

A researcher wants to compare the heights of males between generations to see if they differ. To do this, he samples random pairs of males who are at least 18 years old and their fathers. He then splits them into a sample of fathers and a sample of sons. Suppose that data were collected for a random sample of 11 pairs, where each difference is calculated by subtracting the height of the son from the height of the father. Assume that the heights are normally distributed. The test statistic is t≈1.971, α=0.05, the corresponding rejection regions are t<−2.228 and t>2.228, the null hypothesis is H0:μd=0, and the alternative hypothesis is Ha:μd≠0.

Select all that apply:
a. Reject the null hypothesis.
b. Fail to reject the null hypothesis.
c. The conclusion of the hypothesis test is that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that the heights of males between generations are different.
d. The conclusion of the hypothesis test is that there is insufficient evidence to suggest that the heights of males between generations are different.

Answers

Answer:

The correct option is  

Option A and Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size of paired men is  [tex]n_p   =  11[/tex]

   The test statistics is  t≈1.971

    The  significance level is  α=0.05

    The rejection region is  t<−2.228 and t>2.228

    The null hypothesis is  [tex]H_o :\mu_ d=0[/tex]

     The alternative hypothesis  is  [tex]H_a :\mu_ d \ne 0[/tex]

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

        [tex]df  =  n_1 +  n_2 - 2[/tex]

Here [tex]n_1[/tex] is the sample size of  father which is  [tex]n_1 =  11[/tex]

        [tex]n_2[/tex] is the sample size of males who are at least 18 years old  which is  [tex]n_2 =  11[/tex]

So

     [tex]df  =  11 +  11 - 2[/tex]

=>   [tex]df  =  20[/tex]

Generally the critical values of  α=0.05 from the  t- distribution table at a degree of freedom of  [tex]df  =  20[/tex]  for a two -tailed test  is  

     [tex]t_{0.05 , 20 } =  \pm 2.08596345  [/tex]

From the value  obtained we see that the critical value  is within the region of rejection hence

 The decision rule is

Reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is  

  The conclusion of the hypothesis test is that there is sufficient evidence to suggest that the heights of males between generations are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

The green line (the one at the top) does not go through the origin. This is not a proportional relationship.

Problem: It does not go through 0,0

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

The blue line (the one in the middle) is a straight line through the origin. This is a proportional relationship.

Reason: It goes through 0,0

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

The purple line (the one at the bottom) does not go through the origin. This is not a proportional relationship.

Problem: It does not go through 0,0

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

Conclusion: Since the green and purple lines are not proportional but the blue line is, this means only 1 line is proportional.

A professor of philosophy hypothesizes that an introductory course in logic will affect college students with their other studies. To test this hypothesis, a random sample of 25 first year students is selected. These students are required to complete a logic course during their first year. At the time of graduation, the final GPA is computed or each of these students. The mean GPA for this sample is 2.58 with a SS of 6.

Required:
Can the professor conclude that the grades for the sample were significantly different from the rest of the graduating class, which had an average GPA of 2.33?

Answers

Answer:

NO.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Professor's hypothesis:

An introductory course in Logic will affect college students with their other studies (will affect their Great Point Average - GPA).

25 students are used as the experimental group while the rest of the class are the control group.

The mean GPA in a sample size (SS) of 6 is = 2.58

The mean GPA in the full sample size of 25 would be = 10.75 by crossmultiplying.

This makes me believe the question was written wrongly. I assume SD (standard deviation) of 0.6 instead of SS (sample size) of 6.

Going by this, if standard deviation is 0.6 then the interval within which the GPA of the experimental group (the 25 students) falls is:

[2.58 - 0.6] to [2.58 + 0.6]

= 1.98 to 3.18

The rest of the graduating class (the control group) had a mean GPA of 2.33

Can the professor conclude that the GPA for the sample is significantly different from that of the control group?

The answer is NO because the GPA of the control group falls within the GPA interval of the experimental group!

C. An increase of 20%

Divide 50 by both sides

x  =  120

60 is 120% of 50, so there is a 20% increase

Two boxes of chocolates cost Php180. How much do 7 boxes of chocolates cost? *what proportion is that?​

Answers

Answer:

Php630

Step-by-step explanation:

2 boxes of chocolates cost Php180.

Number of boxes : price

2 : 180

How much do 7 boxes of chocolates cost?

Let x = price of 7 boxes

Number of boxes : price

7 : x

Number of boxes : price

2 : 180 = 7 : x

2/180 = 7/x

cross product

2*x = 180*7

2x = 1,260

Divide both sides by 2

x = Php630

7 boxes of chocolates cost Php630

Answers

Answer:

It will take 9.6 minutes to travel 24 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

(;;;

Answer:

9.6 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how many minutes it takes the snail to travel 1 cm.

to do this we need to divide the time it takes by the distance traveled.

4 ÷ 10 = 0.4. So, the snail takes 0.4 minutes to travel 1 cm.

Next we need to find how long it takes to travel 24 cm.

to do do that we need to multiply how long it takes the snail to travel 1 cm by the number of cm it needs to travel.

0.4 x 24 = 9.6. So, it takes the snail 9.6 minutes to travel 24 cm.
