Lee is a teacher at a local high school who wanted to assess whether or not dogs physically resemble their owners enough for people to be able to correctly match a dog to their owner better than if just guessing. Lee, who is also a dog owner, showed pictures of two dogs to her class of 16 students. One photo was of the teacher's dog (Yoda) and the other photo was of a dog the teacher had never met. The students were asked to guess which dog was actually the teacher's. If dogs do not physically resemble their owners, the students would get a correct match with probability 0.50. It turned out that 14 of the 16 students correctly picked out the teacher's dog.
Does it appear that the population proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner (out of two options) is better than just guessing?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner (out of two options) is better than just guessing.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test whether the proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner (out of two options) is better than just guessing.

The hypothesis can be defined as follows:  

H₀: The proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner is 50%, i.e. p = 0.50.  

Hₐ: The proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner is more than 50%, i.e. p > 0.50.  

The information provided is:  

[tex]x=14\\n=16[/tex]

The sample proportion is:

[tex]\hat p=\frac {x}{n}=\frac{14}{16}=0.875[/tex]

Compute the test statistic value as follows:  

[tex]z=\frac{\hat p-p}{\sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}}[/tex]

  [tex]=\frac{0.875-0.50}{\sqrt{\frac{0.50(1-0.50)}{16}}}\\\\=3[/tex]

The test statistic value is 3.  

The decision rule is:  

The null hypothesis will be rejected if the p-value of the test is less than the significance level.  

Compute the p-value as follows:

[tex]p-value=P(Z>3)\\\\=1-P(Z<3)\\\\=1-0.99865\\\\=0.00135\\\\\approx 0.0014[/tex]

The p-value is, p-value = 0.0014.

The p-value of the test is very small for all the commonly used significance level. The null hypothesis will be rejected.

Thus, there is not enough evidence to support the claim.

Conclusion:

The proportion of people who can correctly match a dog to their owner (out of two options) is better than just guessing.

Raul and Ivan each make a number pattern, as described.
• Raul's pattern: start with 15, add 2
• Ivan's pattern: start with 11, add 3
What number in Raul's pattern and in Ivan's pattern is the same in a pair of corresponding terms?
(A) 17
(b) 21
(C) 23
(D) 26
23
26

Answers

Answer:

Option C. 23

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the correct answer to the question given above, let us determine the sequence of Raul and Ivan. This is illustrated below:

From the question given above,

Raul's pattern: start with 15, add 2

Ivan's pattern: start with 11, add 3

For Raul:

Raul's pattern: start with 15, add 2

1st term = 15

2nd term = 15 + 2 = 17

3rd term = 17 + 2 = 19

4th term = 19 + 2 = 21

5th term = 21 + 2 = 23

6th term = 23 + 2 = 25

For Ivan:

Ivan's pattern: start with 11, add 3

1st term = 11

2nd term = 11 + 3 = 14

3rd term = 14 + 3 = 17

4th term = 17 + 3 = 20

5th term = 20 + 3 = 23

6th term = 23 + 3 = 26

Summary

Term >>>>> Raul >>>>>> Ivan

1 >>>>>>>>> 15 >>>>>>>> 11

2 >>>>>>>>> 17 >>>>>>>> 14

3 >>>>>>>>> 19 >>>>>>>> 17

4 >>>>>>>>> 21 >>>>>>>> 20

5 >>>>>>>>> 23 >>>>>>>> 23

6 >>>>>>>>> 25 >>>>>>>> 26

From the calculations made above, we can see that in the 5th term, both Raul and Ivan has the same number as 23.

Calculate the directional derivative of f(x, y) = cot-'(xy) in the direction of v = -4i + 5j at the point P = (0.5, 0.5).
Remember to normalize the direction vector.
DS(0.5, 0.5) =

Answers

Looks like f(x, y) = cot⁻¹(xy), as in the inverse cotangent.

If you're like me and you don't remember the derivative of the inverse trig functions, we can derive it as follows. Let y = cot⁻¹(x), so that for appropriate x we can write cot(y) = x. By the chain rule, differentiating both sides gives

-csc²(y) y' = 1

y' = -sin²(y) = -sin²(cot⁻¹(x)) = - 1 / (x² + 1)

Next, recall that the derivative of a function f(x, y) at a point (a, b) in the direction of a vector v is given by

f(a, b) • v

Compute the gradient ∇ f(x, y) :

f(x, y) = - y / ((xy)² + 1) i - x / ((xy)² + 1) j

At the point P, we have

f(x, y) = - 8/17 i - 8/17 j

So, the derivative of f at P along v = - 4 i + 5 j is

(- 8/17 i - 8/17 j) • (- 4 i + 5 j) = - 8/17

What is  multiplication?

In mathematics, multiplication is a method of finding the product of two or more numbers. It is one of the basic arithmetic operations, that we use in everyday life.

Here, given that,

A factory makes 20 gadgets every 1/4 hour.

So, in an hour made = 20÷1/4 machines

                                  =20×4

                                  =80

i.e. If a machine makes 20 gadgets every fourth (1/4) of an hour,

it makes 80 machines every hour (20*4).

Hence, 80 machines gadgets are made every hour.

The median in math is basicly the middle of the list. First, put the list in order from least to greatest. Then, find the middle. If there is no middle, add the two numbers in the middle. Add them together, and divide the sum by two. The quotient is the median.

In this case, there is a middle. The middle is nine. Nine is the median.

What is the measure of ZA degrees?​

Answers

Answer:

Since this is an isosceles triangle, the angles opposite to the equal sides will also be equal

Therefore,

angle ABC  = angle ACB

We are given that angle ACB  is 30 degrees

Hence, angle ABC = 30 degrees

We know that according to the angle sum property, the sum of all interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

So, angle ABC + angle ACB + angle CAB  = 180 degrees

replacing the variables with values we already know

30 + 30 + angle CAB = 180

angle CAB = 180 - 60

angle CAB = 120 degrees

Hence the measure of angle A is 120 degrees

What is an ordered pair?

An ordered pair is made up of two components isolated by a comma and put inside parentheses. (x, y) indicates an ordered pair, where 'x' is the first component and 'y' is the second component in the ordered pair.

The graph below represents the distance Manuel walks over several hours.

The first and second options are not accurate since the distance is measured in miles up to 10 miles, hence the options can't be correct

The correct answer is option D since the value at t = 1.5 is equal to 9 miles

Thus, the ordered pair is on the line (1.5, 9).

Hence, the correct answer is an option (D)
