(1 point) the effectiveness of a new bug repellent is tested on 18 subjects for a 10 hour period. based on the number and location of the bug bites, the percentage of exposed surface area protected from bites was calculated for each of the subjects. assume the population is normally distributed. the results were as follows: x¯¯¯=92 %, s=8% the new repellent is considered effective if it provides a percent repellency of more than 89%. using α=0.025, construct a hypothesis test with null hypothesis μ≤0.89 and alternative hypothesis μ> 0.89 to determine whether the mean repellency of the new bug repellent is greater than 89% by computing the following: (a)the degree of freedom is df= .

z=1.59

If we compare the p value and the significance level given we see that so we can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean repellency of the new bug repellent is greater than 89% at 0.025 of signficance.    

Step-by-step explanation:    

1) Data given and notation    

represent the mean effectiveness of a new bug repellent for the sample    

represent the population standard deviation for the sample    

sample size    

represent the value that we want to test  

represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)    

represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.    

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean repellency of the new bug repellent is greater than 89% or 0.89, the system of hypothesis would be:    

Null hypothesis:    

Alternative hypothesis:    

We don't know the population deviation, and the sample size <30, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:    

(1)    

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic    

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

Calculate the P-value    

First we need to calculate the degrees of freedom given by:

Since is a one-side upper test the p value would be:    

In Excel we can use the following formula to find the p value "=1-T.DIST(1.59;17;TRUE)"  

Conclusion    

If we compare the p value and the significance level given we see that so we can conclude that we fail to reject the null hypothesis, so we can conclude that the mean repellency of the new bug repellent is greater than 89% at 0.025 of signficance.    

the figures below are made out of circles, semicircles, quarter … find the area and the perimeter of each figure and give your answers as a completely simplified exact value in terms of π (no approximations). remember that we'll also have to cut whatever areas we get in half, since we're only dealing im pretty sure that is the right answer

step-by-step explanation:

{x = -1/2 ,   y = -1

step-by-step explanation:

solve the following system:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

in the first equation, look to solve for y:

{2 x + y = -2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

subtract 2 x from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 y = -2

substitute y = -2 x - 2 into the second equation:

{y = -2 x - 2

{10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = -2

10 x - 3 (-2 x - 2) = (6 x + 6) + 10 x = 16 x + 6:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

in the second equation, look to solve for x:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x + 6 = -2

subtract 6 from both sides:

{y = -2 x - 2

{16 x = -8

divide both sides by 16:

{y = -2 x - 2

{x = -1/2

substitute x = -1/2 into the first equation:

{y = -1

{x = -1/2

answer:   {x = -1/2 ,   y = -1
