claim: the mean pulse rate (in beats per minute) of adult males is equal to 69 bpm. for a random sample of 140 adult males, the mean pulse rate is 70.4 bpm and the standard deviation is 11.1 bpm. find the value of the test statistic.

93.19%

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the mean (m) is equal to 70.4, the standard deviation (sd) 11.1 and the sample size (n) = 140

They ask us for P (x =69)

For this, the first thing is to calculate z, which is given by the following equation:

z = (x - m) / (sd / (n ^ 1/2))

We have all these values, replacing we have:

z = (69 - 70.4) / (11.1 / (140 ^ (1/2)))

z = 1.49

With the normal distribution table (attached), we have that at that value, the probability is:

P (z <1.49) = 0.9319

The probability is 93.19%

answer: c, the green line

step-by-step explanation:

there is no black line, eliminate b.

simple interest implies periodic payments, but the red line shows no payments, eliminate d.

simple interest has equal payments. if paid say every day, the graph is about a straight line (actually a stairstep).

the yellow line is not straight, eliminate a.

check: the green line is straight, answer is c.

simple interest with positive interest rate gives a straight line sloping up to the right. green line:

g(t) = $100 + ($200-$100) ÷ (20 years) × (t years)

= $100 + (4%/year) × ($100)(t years)

incidentally, the yellow line curving upward represents continuously compounded interest

y = $100 × 2^(t years / (14 assuming the yellow line hits $200 at 14 years. 2^0 is 1, so y(0) = $100; 2^(14/14) is 2, so y(14) = $200.
