Answer:

Part 1) The value of y=6

Part 2) ED=36, DB=36 and EB=72

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem we know that

ED=DB -----> equation A

EB=ED+DB -----> equation B

The point D is the midpoint ED

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

step 1

Find the value of y

Substitute the given values in the equation A

$5y+6=y+30$

solve for y

$5y-y=30-6$

$4y=24$

$y=6$

step 2

Find the value of ED,DB and EB

$ED=5y+6$

substitute the value of y

$ED=5(6)+6=36$

Remember that

ED=DB

therefore

$DB=36$

Find the value of EB

EB=ED+DB

$EB=36+36=72$

Answer:

a. z = 2.00

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The study variable is "Points per game of a high school team"

The hypothesis is that the average score per game is greater than before, so the parameter to test is the population mean (μ)

The hypothesis is:

H₀: μ ≤ 99

H₁: μ > 99

α: 0.01

There is no information about the variable distribution, I'll apply the Central Limit Theorem and approximate the sample mean (X[bar]) to normal since whether you use a Z or t-test, you need your variable to be at least approximately normal. Considering the sample size (n=36) I'd rather use a Z-test than a t-test.

The statistic value under the null hypothesis is:

Z= X[bar] - μ = 101 - 99 = 2

σ/√n 6/√36

I don't have σ, but since this is an approximation I can use the value of S instead.

I hope it helps!
