Exercise 6.38 (page 364) describes a survey to assess whether a newly designed dining court is viewed more favorably than the old design. The organizers are considering randomly surveying n = 100 student patrons but would like some statistical advice. they've decided they want adequate power to detect a mean of at least 4.25.

a) The organizers have no idea of σ. You suggest a small pilot study, which gives s = 1.73. Based on this result, you decide to use σ = 2. Provide an explanation for this choice to the organizers.
b) Given α = 0.05, for what values of ¯x will you reject H₀?

why can't you?

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is; biodiversity resulting from few ancestors

adaptive radiation occurs when a population is subjected to a large natural environment with spatial ecological variations. the parts of the population in the different ecologies begin to adapt to their local environments. due to non-random mating across the large populations, this causes the different populations from the large population to speciate within their local environments. they, therefore, diverge to different species sharing a common ancestor.  

option c) graph of line going through 1, 4 and 3, 10

step-by-step explanation:

let y equal to margo's coin collection

let x equal to number of years

at the begining x=0, y=1 → point=(x,y)→point=(0,1)

she adds 3 coins per year, then y=1+3x

at x=1, y=1+3(1)=1+3→y=4→point=(x,y)→point=(1,4)

at x=3, y=1+3(3)=1+9→y=10→point=(x,y)→point=(3,10)

the graph of line going through (1, 4) and (3, 10), then the option c is the correct.
