The results of a mathematics placement exam at two different campuses of Mercy College follow: Campus Sample Size Sample Mean Po

Leona [35]

Answer:

$z=\frac{(33-31)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{8^2}{330}+\frac{7^2}{310}}}}=3.37$

$p_v =P(Z>3.37)=1-P(Z$

Comparing the p value with a significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the mean for the Campus 1 is significantly higher than the mean for the group 2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

Campus Sample size Mean Population deviation

1 330 33 8

2 310 31 7

$\bar X_{1}=33$ represent the mean for sample 1

$\bar X_{2}=31$ represent the mean for sample 2

$\sigma_{1}=8$ represent the population standard deviation for 1

$\sigma_{2}=7$ represent the population standard deviation for 2

$n_{1}=330$ sample size for the group 1

$n_{2}=310$ sample size for the group 2

$\alpha$ Significance level provided

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean for Campus 1 is higher than the mean for Campus 2, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu_{1}-\mu_{2}\leq 0$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu_{1} - \mu_{2}> 0$

We have the population standard deviation's, and the sample sizes are large enough we can apply a z test to compare means, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{(\bar X_{1}-\bar X_{2})-\Delta}{\sqrt{\frac{\sigma^2_{1}}{n_{1}}+\frac{\sigma^2_{2}}{n_{2}}}}$ (1)

z-test: Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine whether the means of two groups are equal to each other.

With the info given we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{(33-31)-0}{\sqrt{\frac{8^2}{330}+\frac{7^2}{310}}}}=3.37$

P value

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z>3.37)=1-P(Z$

Comparing the p value with a significance level for example $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can say that the mean for the Campus 1 is significantly higher than the mean for the group 2.

The spring has a stiffness k=200n/m and is unstretched when the 25 kg block is at

g100num [7]

To solve this we are going to use the formula fro the force applied to a spring: $F=ks$
where
$k$ is the spring constant
$s$ is the extension

Since we know the $F=ma$ , we can replace that in our formula and solve for $a$ :
$ma=ks$
$a= \frac{ks}{m}$
where
$a$ is the acceleration
$k$ is the spring constant
$s$ is the extension
$m$ is the mass

We know for our problem that $k=200$ , $s=0.4$ , and $m=25$ . So lets replace those values in our formula to find $a$ :
$a= \frac{ks}{m}$
$a= \frac{(200)(0.4)}{25}$
$a=3.5 \frac{m}{s^2}$

We can conclude that the acceleration of the block when s=0.4m is $3.5 \frac{m}{s^2}$ .
