Researchers interviewed street prostitutes in Canada and the United States. The mean age of the 100 Canadian prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 19 with a standard deviation of seven. The mean age of the 130 United States prostitutes upon entering prostitution was 21 with a standard deviation of nine. Is the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada lower than the mean age in the United States

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The null and the alternative hypothesis is:

[tex]H_o: \mu_c \ge \mu_{us}[/tex]

[tex]H_a : \mu_c < \mu_{us}[/tex]

The t- student test statistics can be computed as:

[tex]t = \dfrac{x_c- x_{us}}{\sqrt{\dfrac{\sigma_c^2}{n_c} + \dfrac{\sigma_{us}^2}{n_{us}} }}[/tex]

[tex]t = \dfrac{19- 21}{\sqrt{\dfrac{7^2}{100} + \dfrac{8^2}{130} }}[/tex]

t = -2.017  

degree of freedom = (n₁ - 1) + (n₂ - 1)  

= (100 - 1) + (130 - 1)

= 228

Using the data of t-value and degree of freedom;  

The P-value = -0.224

Decision rule: Do not reject the null hypothesis if the p-value is greater than ∝(0.01)

Conclusion: We reject the null hypothesis since the p-value is less than ∝.

Therefore, there is enough evidence to conclude that the mean age of entering prostitution in Canada is lower than that of the United States.

We can observe that the function describing the graph is linear and so the equation is of linear nature:

[tex]y=mx+n[/tex]

Numbers m and n have special names. m is called the slope, n is called y-intercept.

From the graph one can tell that the line intercepts y-axis at y = -1 that means n = -1. What about the slope you say?

The slope can be calculated using two points' coordinates that lie on the line:

[tex]m=\frac{\Delta y}{\Delta x}=\frac{-1-5}{0-5}=\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

Now our line has an equation,

[tex]y=\frac{6}{5}x-1[/tex]

Hope this helps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that 10% of all bits transmitted through a digital communication channel are erroneously received and that whether any particular bit is erroneously received is independent of whether any other bit is erroneously received. Consider sending a very large number of messages, each consisting of 20 bits.

a. What proportion of these messages will have at most 2 erroneously received bits?

b. What proportion of these messages will have at least 5 erroneously received bits?

c. For what proportion of these messages will more than half the bits be erroneously received?

Answers

Answer:

a) 0.677

b) 0.0431

c) 0

Step-by-step explanation:

For each bit, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is correctly received, or it is erroneously received. Whether any particular bit is erroneously received is independent of whether any other bit is erroneously received. This means that we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

In which [tex]C_{n,x}[/tex] is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

And p is the probability of X happening.

10% of all bits transmitted through a digital communication channel are erroneously

This means that [tex]p = 0.1[/tex]

Messages of 20 bits:

This means that [tex]n = 20[/tex]

a. What proportion of these messages will have at most 2 erroneously received bits?

This is [tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{20} = 0.1216[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{19} = 0.2702[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{18} = 0.2852[/tex]

[tex]P(X \leq 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) = 0.1216 + 0.2702 + 0.2852 = 0.677[/tex]

b. What proportion of these messages will have at least 5 erroneously received bits?

This is

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5)[/tex]

In which

[tex]P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4)[/tex]. So

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{20,0}.(0.1)^{0}.(0.9)^{20} = 0.1216[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 1) = C_{20,1}.(0.1)^{1}.(0.9)^{19} = 0.2702[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 2) = C_{20,2}.(0.1)^{2}.(0.9)^{18} = 0.2852[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 3) = C_{20,3}.(0.1)^{3}.(0.9)^{17} = 0.1901[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 4) = C_{20,4}.(0.1)^{4}.(0.9)^{16} = 0.0898[/tex]

[tex]P(X < 5) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) + P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) = 0.1216 + 0.2702 + 0.2852 + 0.1901 + 0.0898 = 0.9569[/tex]

Then

[tex]P(X \geq 5) = 1 - P(X < 5) = 1 - 0.9569 = 0.0431[/tex]

c. For what proportion of these messages will more than half the bits be erroneously received?

This is [tex]P(X \geq 11)[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 11) = C_{20,11}.(0.1)^{11}.(0.9)^{9} \approx 0[/tex]

If 11 is approximately 0, the rest(11, 12, 13,...) will also be approximately 0. So this proportion is 0.

Each person will get 3 packs of candy bars

The given parameters are:

Candy bars = 26 pack

People = 7

The number of pack each person will have is then calculated as:

Pack =Candy bars / People

So, we have:

[tex]Pack = \frac{26}{7}[/tex]

Divide 26 by 7 (remove the decimal or fractional parts)

The way I did this (and it won't make much sense I know but its just my way of doing it), is to subtract the bigger angle on the tool by the smaller angle. For example, like in the image, one arrow is at 120 degrees and another at 80 degrees, so I would just do 120-80 which equals 40, and because we talk about angles in the hood its 40 degrees, not plain 40

Given that the radius of the circle 'r' = 6 cm

Given that the central angle = [tex]\frac{3\pi }{5}[/tex]

The Arc length is defined by

                 S = r θ

                S = 6 × [tex]\frac{3\pi }{5}[/tex]

                [tex]S = \frac{18\pi }{5}[/tex]

               [tex]S = \frac{18(3.14) }{5}[/tex]      (∵ π = 3.14)

Step-by-step explanation:

"slope-intercept form" looks like y = mx + b.

We are given m = -12 and a point on the line which is (4, -5).

Substituting 4 for x, -5 for y and -12 for m, we get:

-5 = -12(4) + b.  Then b = -43, and the desired equation is y = -12x - 43.
