On each trial of a digit span memory task, the participant is asked to read aloud a string of random digits. The participant mus

t then repeat the digits in the correct order. If the participant is successful, the length of the next string is increased by one. For instance, if the participant repeats four digits successfully, he will hear five random digits on the next trial. The participant's score is the longest string of digits he can successfully repeat.
A professor of cognitive psychology is interested in the number of digits successfully repeated on the digit span task among college students. She measures the number of digits successfully repeated for 49 randomly selected students. The professor knows that the distribution of scores is normal, but she does not know that the true average number of digits successfully repeated on the digit span task among college students is 7.06 digits with a standard deviation of 1.63 digits.

a. The expected value of the mean of the 49 randomly selected students, M, is:_____
b. The standard error of M is:______

Answer:

a) The expected value of the mean of the 49 randomly selected students, M, is 7.06 digits

b)

The Standard error of the mean is 0.2328

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Explanation</em></u>:-

Given sample size 'n' = 49

The Expected value of the mean of 49 randomly selected students

μₓ = μ =7.06 digits  

b)

<em>The Standard error of the mean determined by</em>

<em></em>S.E = \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }<em></em>

Given sample size 'n' = 49

<em>The Standard deviation 'σ' = 1.63 digits</em>

<em>The Standard error </em>

S.E = \frac{S.D}{\sqrt{n} }

S.E = \frac{1.63}{\sqrt{49} } = 0.2328

<u><em>Final answer</em></u>:-

a) The expected value of the mean of the 49 randomly selected students, M, is 7.06 digits

b)<em> The Standard error of the mean is 0.2328</em>

What are equivalent equations? How do you find them? Write a few sentences describing them.
lbvjy [14]
Equivalent equations are equations that have exactly the same solution. To find equivalent equations, it is best to solve them individually to find the solutions. The ones with the same solution in the end are considered equivalent equations.

Sindrei [870]

Answer:

(i) The estimated regression equation is;

\hat y ≈ 1.6896 + 0.0604·X

The coefficient of 'X' indicates that \hat y increase by a multiple of 0.0604 for each million dollar increase in sales, X

(ii) The estimated earnings for the company is approximately $4.7096 million

(iii) The standard error of estimate is approximately 29.34

The high standard error of estimate indicates that individual mean do not accurately represent the population mean

(iv) The coefficient of determination is approximately 0.57925

The coefficient of determination indicates that the probability of the coordinate of a new point of data to be located on the line is 0.57925

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data is presented as follows;

\begin{array}{ccc}Sales \ (\$million)&&Earning \ (\$million) \\89.2&&4.9\\18.6&&4.4\\18.2&&1.3\\71.7&&8\\58.6&&6.6\\46.8&&4.1\\17.5&&2.6\\11.9&&1.7\end{array}

(i) From the data, we have;

The regression equation can be presented as follows;

\hat y = b₀ + b₁·x

Where;

b₁ = The slope given as follows;

b_1 = \dfrac{\Sigma(x_i - \overline x) \cdot (y_i - \overline y)}{\Sigma(x_i - \overline x)^2}

b₀ = \overline y - b₁·\overline x

From the data, we have;

{\Sigma(x_i - \overline x) \cdot (y_i - \overline y)} = 364.05

\Sigma(x_i - \overline x)^2} = 6,027.259

\overline y = 4.2

\overline x = 41.5625

∴ b₁ = 364.05/6,027.259 ≈ 0.06040059005

b₀ = 4.2 - 0.06040059005 × 41.5625 ≈ 1.68960047605 ≈ 1.69

Therefore, we have the regression equation as follows;

\hat y ≈ 1.6896 + 0.0604·X

The coefficient of 'X' indicates that the earnings increase by a multiple of 0.0604 for each million dollar increase in sales

(ii) For the small company, we have;

X = $50.0 million, therefore, we get;

\hat y = 1.6896 + 0.0604 × 50 = 4.7096

The estimated earnings for the company, \hat y = 4.7096 million

(iii) The standard error of estimate, σ, is given by the following formula;

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{\sum \left (x_i-\mu  \right )^{2} }{n - 1}}

Where;

n = The sample size

Therefore, we have;

\sigma =\sqrt{\dfrac{6,027.259 }{8 - 1}} \approx 29.34

The standard error of estimate, σ ≈ 29.34

The high standard error of estimate indicates that it is very unlikely that a given mean value within the data is a representation of the true population mean

(iv) The coefficient of determination (R Square) is given as follows;

R^2 = \dfrac{SSR}{SST}

Where;

SSR = The Sum of Squared Regression ≈ 21.9884

SST = The total variation in the sample ≈ 37.96

Therefore, R² ≈ 21.9884/37.96 ≈ 0.57925

The coefficient of determination, R² ≈ 0.57925.

Therefore, by the coefficient of determination, the likelihood of a new introduced data point to located on the line is 0.57925

Jalil and Victoria are each asked to solve the equation ax – c = bx + d for x. Jalil says it is not possible to isolate x becaus
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Give the expression ax – c = bx + d, we are isolate x i.e we are to make x the subject of the formula.

ax – c = bx + d

Step 1: subtract bx from both sides

ax – c = bx + d

ax-bx = d+c

Step 2: Factor out x in the left hand side of the resulting expression

x(a-b) = d+c

Step 3: Divide both sides by the coefficient of i.e (a-b)

\frac{x(a-b)}{a-b} = \frac{d+c}{a-b}

x = \frac{d+c}{a-b}

Hence Victoria can justify the step 3 of her work by dividing both sides of the expression in 2 by a-b
