The volume of a stock is the number of shares traded for a given day. Several years ago, a certain company's stock had a mean daily volume of 7.52 million shares, according to a reputable financial news outlet. A random sample of 40 trading days in a recent year was obtained and the volume of shares traded on those days was recorded, with the accompanying results. Required:
a. Find the test statistic:
b. Find the P-value
c. The level of significance is .05. what can be concluded from the hypothesis?

a) test statistic,

b) P-value = 0.0001

c) It can be concluded from the hypothesis that the company's stock has a mean value that is not 7.52 million shares i.e. the mean stock has changed in recent years

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 40 trading days, therefore, sample size, n = 40

Calculate the Sample mean:

Get the null and alternative hypothesis:

Null hypothesis,

Alternative hypothesis,

Calculate the sample standard deviation:

a) Calculate the test statistic:

b) Calculate the P-value

Getting the P-value using the excel function:

P-value = (=T.DIST.2T(|ts|, df))

P-value = (=T.DIST.2T(4.20, 39))

P-value = 0.0001

c) If the level of significance,

The P-value (0.0001) < α(0.05), the null hypothesis is rejected.

It can therefore be concluded from the hypothesis that the company's stock has a mean value that is not 7.52 million shares i.e. the mean stock has changed in recent years

step-by-step explanation:

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

step-by-step explanation:

formula

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

let the line segment ab with a(x1,y1) and b(x2,y2)

a point(x,y) divide ab in the ratio, 2: 3 the x coordinate can be written as

x = x1 + p/w(x2 - x1)

here p=2 and w = 2+3

therefore,

x coordinate can be written by using the formula, x= x1 + 2/5(x2 - x1)

similarly y coordinate y = y1 + 2/5(y2 - y1)
