There is a sequence of four Engineering classes that a student must pass to finish her major. Each class depends primarily on material learned in the previous class. Consider a student who will maintain good standing in these classes. An experienced advisor predicts that, if the student earns an A in one of these classes, she has probability .6 of an A in the next class in the sequence, .3 of a B, and .1 of a C. If the student earns a B in one of these classes, she has probability .25 of an A in the next class in the sequence, .55 of a B, and .20 of a C. If the student earns a C in one of these classes, she has probability .05 of an A in the next class in the sequence, .40 of a B, and .55 of a C. a) Write out the Markov transition matrix for how this student is expected to do in the next class in sequence after taking one of the classes. b) Find the probability that if a student earns a

Suppose we have two thermometers. One thermometer is very precise but is delicate and heavy (X). We have another thermometer that is much cheaper and lighter, but of unknown precision (Y). We would like to know if we can (reliably) bring the lighter thermometer with us into the field. So, we set up an experiment where we expose both thermometers to 31 different temperatures and measure the temperature with each. We get the following observations

x = 0, 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56, 60, 64, 68, 72, 76, 80, 84, 88, 92, 96, 100, 104, 108, 112, 116, 120
y = 0.02, 3.99, 7.91, 12.03, 16.09, 20.00, 23.98, 28.09, 31.94, 36.03, 40.00, 44.05, 47.95, 52.00, 55.87, 59.90, 63.91, 67.95, 72.11, 76.02, 80.01, 84.10, 88.06, 91.74, 96.02, 99.95, 103.87, 108.01, 111.99, 116.04, 120.03

We want to decide if these thermometers seem to be measuring the same temperatures. Let's use the thershold α= 0.1.

Required:
Write down the appropriate hypothesis tests for β1.

Answers

Answer:

a)H0: β1= 1 and Ha: β1 ≠1

b) The test statistic is____.t= b- β/ sb

c) The p-value is____.0.999144

(d) Therefore, we can conclude that:_____. there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.    

The data provides no evidence at the 0.1 significance level that these thermometers are not consistent.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is called testing hypotheses about β, the population regression co efficient.

The null and alternate hypotheses are

H0: β1= 1 and Ha: β1 ≠1

The significance level is ∝=0.1 and ∝/2 is 0.05

The critical region at t ∝/2 (29)=  t ≤ - 1.699 , t ≥ 1.699

The test statistic is

t= b- β/ sb

which has t distribution with υ= 31-2= 29 degrees of freedom.

Calculations

Ŷ = a +bX

b = SPxy /SS x= Σ(xi-x`)(yi-y`)/Σ(xi-x`)²

b = 39671.6/39680= 0.9998

a = y` - bx`

x`= 60

y`= 59.989

a = 59.989 -0.9998*60 = 0.001734

Syx²= Σ( yi -y`)²/ n-2= 39663.3857/ 29=1367.68965

Syx= 36.9822

Sb= Syx/ √∑  (x-x`)²

The test statistic is

t= b- β/ sb

Since the calculated t=-0.0010815  does not lie in the critical region  t ∝/2 (29)=  t ≤ - 1.699 , t ≥ 1.699 we conclude that these thermometers seem to be measure temperatures.

The p-value is  ≈ 0.999144

there is not enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

13.  All equilateral triangles are acute triangles. An equilateral triangle has three sides of equal length and three equal angles of 60.~ I think it is False.

14. If a triangle has two acute angles, then the third angle must also be acute.~ I think it is true.

15.  A triangle cannot be right-angled and obtuse angled at the same time. Since a right-angled triangle has one right angle, the other two angles are acute. Therefore, an obtuse-angled triangle can never have a right angle; and vice versa. ~I think it is false.

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the following line:

(-14,1) and (13,-2)

Answers

Answer:

[tex] \large \boxed{y = - \frac{1}{9} x - \frac{5}{9} }[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find an equation of a line with two given ordered pairs. We have to find a slope first which we can do by using the formula below.

[tex] \large \boxed{m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1} }[/tex]

m-term is defined as slope in y = mx+b form which is slope-intercept form.

Now we substitute these ordered pairs (x, y) in the formula.

[tex] \large{m = \frac{1 - ( - 2)}{ -14 - 13} } \\ \large{m = \frac{1 + 2}{ - 27} } \\ \large{m = \frac{3}{ - 27} = - \frac{1}{9} }[/tex]

After we calculate for slope, we substitute m-value in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form is

[tex] \large \boxed{y = mx + b}[/tex]

We already know m-value as we substitute it.

[tex] \large{y = - \frac{1}{9} x + b}[/tex]

We are not done yet because we need to find the b-term which is our y-intercept. (Note that m-term is slope while b-term is y-intercept)

We can find the y-intercept by substituting either (-14,1) or (13,-2) in the equation. I will be using (13,-2) to substitute in the equation.

[tex] \large{y = - \frac{1}{9} x + b} \\ \large{ - 2 = - \frac{1}{9} (13) + b} \\ \large{ - 2 = - \frac{13}{9} + b} \\ \large{ - 2 + \frac{13}{9} = b} \\ \large{ - \frac{5}{9} = b}[/tex]

Finally, we know b-value. Then we substitute it in our equation.

[tex] \large{y = - \frac{1}{9} x + b} \\ \large{y = - \frac{1}{9} x - \frac{5}{9} }[/tex]

Cast Iron Company, on each nondelinquent sale, receives revenues with a present value of $1,230 and incurs costs with a value of $1,065. Cast Iron has been asked to extend credit to a new customer. You can find little information on the firm, and you believe that the probability of payment is no better than 0.77. But if the payment is made, the probability that the customer will pay for the second order is 0.94. It costs $15.25 to determine whether a customer has been a prompt or slow payer in the past.
Calculate the minimum probability at which credit can be extended. (round answer 2 decimal places)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]P=0.866[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Present value of iron [tex]x_v=\$1230[/tex]

Present cost of iron [tex]x_c=\$1065[/tex]

Probability of payment [tex]P_p=0.77[/tex]

Probability that the customer will pay for the second order [tex]P_s=0.94[/tex]

Cost of knowing customer status [tex]x_k=\$15.25[/tex]

Generally the equation for Expected probability [tex]E_p[/tex] is mathematically given by

 [tex]E_p=(probability*(revenue-cost)-(1-probability)*present\ value\ of\ cost)[/tex]

 [tex]E_p=(P*(x_v-x_c)-(1-P)*X_c)[/tex]

  Where

  [tex]E_p=0[/tex]

  [tex]P=minimum\ probability\ at\ which\ credit\ can\ be\ extended[/tex]

Therefore

 [tex]0=(P*(1230-1065)-(1-P)*1065)[/tex]

 [tex]165P-1065+1065P=0[/tex]

 [tex]P=\frac{1065}{1230}[/tex]

 [tex]P=0.866[/tex]

Therefore the minimum probability at which credit can be extended is given as

 [tex]P=0.866[/tex]

 [tex]P=86.6\%[/tex]

Carl bought 24 daisies and roses. Daisies cost $0.25 each and roses cost $0.90 each. If
Carl spends a total of $16.40, how many daisies did he get and how many roses did he
get?

Answers

Answer:

Roses= $8.4

Daises= $15.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Let represent the daises and let r represent d roses

r + d= 24....equation 1

0.25r + 0.90d= 16.40.......equation 2

r= 25-d

Substitute 25-d for r in equation 2

0.25(25-d) + 0.90d= 16.40

6.25-0.25d+0.90d= 16.40

6.25+0.65d= 16.40

0.65d= 16.40-6.25

0.65d= 10.15

d= 10.15/0.65

d = 15.6

Sub 15.6 for d in equation 1

r+d= 24

r+15.6= 24

r= 24-15.6

= 8.4

Price of daises is $15.6

Roses is $8.4

C. Saying​ "data vary" means that the values of the variable change from individual to individual. In​ addition, certain variables can change over time for certain individuals. Because data​ vary, two different statistical analysis of the same variable can lead to different results.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variation in data may be explained as the non-uniformity in the values assigned to each individual variable in the data table. As a result of the non-uniformity or differences which exists in the values assigned to individual variables or changes due over time. This will usually lead to differences in the statistical result obtained when data undergoes analysis.
