A survey recently reported that the mean national annual expenditure for inpatient and outpatient services of all persons over 64 years of age was $5,423 with a standard deviation of $979. A random sample of 352 persons over age 64 living in Sudbury had an average expense of $5,516. We want to test whether the mean inpatient and outpatient expense of all Sudbury residents over age 64 is higher than the national average of $5,423. Calculate the P-value for this test.

Answers

Answer 1

Using the z-distribution, it is found that the p-value for this test is of 0.0375.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the expenses are the same as the national average, that is, of $5,423. Hence:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 5423[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if it is higher, hence:

[tex]H_1: \mu > 5423[/tex]

We have the standard deviation for the population, thus, the z-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

The parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean. [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis. [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the sample. n is the sample size.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are: [tex]\overline{x} = 5516, \mu = 5423, \sigma = 979, n = 352[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{5516 - 5423}{\frac{979}{\sqrt{352}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.78[/tex]

The p-value is the probability of finding a sample mean above $5,516, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z = 1.78.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.78 has a p-value of 0.9625.

1 - 0.9625 = 0.0375

Hence, the p-value for this test is of 0.0375.

Amanda's family is taking a road trip. Their car can travel no more than 352 miles without needing to refill the gas tank. They have
traveled 108 miles since they last filled the gas tank.
Amanda knows that the inequality representing this situation is 108 + x < 352.
Select from the drop-down menu to correctly interpret the solution of this inequality.

Answers

Amanda family cannot travel more than 244 miles without needing to refill the gas tank.

Inequality is the non equal comparison of numbers or variables.

Let x represent the number of miles that they can travel before filling their gas tank.

Their car can travel no more than 352 miles without filling their tank. Also, they have traveled 108 miles since they last filled the gas tank. Hence:

x + 108 < 352

x < 244

This means that Amanda family cannot travel more than 244 miles without needing to refill the gas tank.

X^+17x+72=12 factoring quadratic equation

Answers

Answer:

The first term is, x2 its coefficient is 1 .

The middle term is, -17x its coefficient is -17 .

The last term, "the constant", is +60

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant 1 • 60 = 60

Step-2 : Find two factors of 60 whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is -17 .

-60 + -1 = -61

-30 + -2 = -32

-20 + -3 = -23

-15 + -4 = -19

-12 + -5 = -17 That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above, -12 and -5

x2 - 12x - 5x - 60

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

x • (x-12)

Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

5 • (x-12)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

(x-5) • (x-12)

Which is the desired factorization

Equation at the end of step

1

:

(x - 5) • (x - 12) = 0

STEP

Theory - Roots of a product

2.1 A product of several terms equals zero.

When a product of two or more terms equals zero, then at least one of the terms must be zero.

We shall now solve each term = 0 separately

In other words, we are going to solve as many equations as there are terms in the product

Any solution of term = 0 solves product = 0 as well.

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.2 Solve : x-5 = 0

Add 5 to both sides of the equation :

x = 5

Solving a Single Variable Equation:

2.3 Solve : x-12 = 0

Add 12 to both sides of the equation :

x = 12

Supplement : Solving Quadratic Equation Directly

Solving x2-17x+60 = 0 directly

Earlier we factored this polynomial by splitting the middle term. let us now solve the equation by Completing The Square and by using the Quadratic Formula

Parabola, Finding the Vertex:

3.1 Find the Vertex of y = x2-17x+60

For any parabola,Ax2+Bx+C,the x -coordinate of the vertex is given by -B/(2A) . In our case the x coordinate is 8.5000

Plugging into the parabola formula 8.5000 for x we can calculate the y -coordinate :

y = 1.0 * 8.50 * 8.50 - 17.0 * 8.50 + 60.0

or y = -12.250

Parabola, Graphing Vertex and X-Intercepts :

Root plot for : y = x2-17x+60

Axis of Symmetry (dashed) {x}={ 8.50}

Vertex at {x,y} = { 8.50,-12.25}

x -Intercepts (Roots) :

Root 1 at {x,y} = { 5.00, 0.00}

Root 2 at {x,y} = {12.00, 0.00}

Solve Quadratic Equation by Completing The Square

3.2 Solving x2-17x+60 = 0 by Completing The Square .

Subtract 60 from both side of the equation :

x2-17x = -60

Now the clever bit: Take the coefficient of x , which is 17 , divide by two, giving 17/2 , and finally square it giving 289/4

Add 289/4 to both sides of the equation :

On the right hand side we have :

-60 + 289/4 or, (-60/1)+(289/4)

The common denominator of the two fractions is 4 Adding (-240/4)+(289/4) gives 49/4

So adding to both sides we finally get :

x2-17x+(289/4) = 49/4

Adding 289/4 has completed the left hand side into a perfect square :

x2-17x+(289/4) =

(x-(17/2)) • (x-(17/2)) =

(x-(17/2))2

Things which are equal to the same thing are also equal to one another. Since

x2-17x+(289/4) = 49/4 and

x2-17x+(289/4) = (x-(17/2))2

then, according to the law of transitivity,

(x-(17/2))2 = 49/4

We'll refer to this Equation as Eq. #3.2.1

The Square Root Principle says that When two things are equal, their square roots are equal.

Note that the square root of

(x-(17/2))2 is

(x-(17/2))2/2 =

(x-(17/2))1 =

x-(17/2)

Now, applying the Square Root Principle to Eq. #3.2.1 we get:

x-(17/2) = √ 49/4

Add 17/2 to both sides to obtain:

x = 17/2 + √ 49/4

Since a square root has two values, one positive and the other negative

x2 - 17x + 60 = 0

has two solutions:

x = 17/2 + √ 49/4

or

x = 17/2 - √ 49/4

Note that √ 49/4 can be written as

√ 49 / √ 4 which is 7 / 2

Solve Quadratic Equation using the Quadratic Formula

3.3 Solving x2-17x+60 = 0 by the Quadratic Formula .

According to the Quadratic Formula, x , the solution for Ax2+Bx+C = 0 , where A, B and C are numbers, often called coefficients, is given by :

- B ± √ B2-4AC

x = ————————

2A

In our case, A = 1

B = -17

C = 60

Accordingly, B2 - 4AC =

289 - 240 =

49

Applying the quadratic formula :

17 ± √ 49

x = —————

2

Can √ 49 be simplified ?

Yes! The prime factorization of 49 is

7•7

To be able to remove something from under the radical, there have to be 2 instances of it (because we are taking a square i.e. second root).

√ 49 = √ 7•7 =

± 7 • √ 1 =

± 7

So now we are looking at:

x = ( 17 ± 7) / 2

Two real solutions:

x =(17+√49)/2=(17+7)/2= 12.000

or:

x =(17-√49)/2=(17-7)/2= 5.000

Two solutions were found :

x = 12

x = 5

a car travels 55 miles per hour for 2 hours. How far did it travel in 1 1/2 hours

Answers

Answer:

82.5 miles in 1 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the information the question gives us we can find the appropriate answer to this question by dividing the miles per hour by two, and then add that number to the additional miles per hour.

55 miles = one hour

2 hours = 110 miles

1 1/2 hours = 55 ÷ 2 = 27.5

55 + 27.5 = 82.5 miles

82.5 miles

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is pretty simple. The first thing you want to do is come up with an algebraic equation to solve this. It will be x + 2x + 6x=846 . The first x represents the smallest part, or the first part. The second part is represented by 2x because it is twice the first, and 6x is 3 times the second part which is 6 times the first part. Combine like terms to get 9x = 846. Now isolate the variable by dividing 9 from both sides. This will give you x = 94. Now just plug in the x to find the second and third part.

Write slope intercept form of th equation of each line

Answers

Answer:

y = 8/5x + (-4) or y = 8/5x -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-intercept form is written like this:

            y = mx + b

The variable m, represents slope and b, represents the y-intercept.

To find slope, you have to find the rise/run or in other words, change of y over change of x.

From the look of the line, the slope has to be positive because the line is going up.

To go from the bottom point to the top, we have to go up 8 points and go to the right 5 points. Thus the slope is 8/5.

Now for the y-intercept. This part is easy. Just ask yourself this...

"Which of the two points is on the y-axis?"

In this case, it is the bottom point which is -4.

So your equation should look like this:

y = 8/5x + (-4)

   or y = 8/5x - 4 because when you have a plus sign and a minus sign, the result is negative.
