The average undergraduate cost for tuition, fees, and room and board for two-year institutions last year was $13,252. The following year, a random sample of 20 two-year institutions had a mean of $15,560 and a standard deviation of $3500. Is there sufficient evidence at the ?= 0.05 level to conclude that the mean cost has increased. Solve the question by traditional approach.

The p-value of the test is 0.0041 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean cost has increased.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average undergraduate cost for tuition, fees, and room and board for two-year institutions last year was $13,252. Test if the mean cost has increased.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean cost is still the same, that is:

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean cost has increased, that is:

The test statistic is:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, which means that the t-distribution is used to solve this question

In which X is the sample mean, is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

13252 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that

The following year, a random sample of 20 two-year institutions had a mean of $15,560 and a standard deviation of $3500.

This means that

Value of the test statistic:

P-value of the test and decision:

The p-value of the test is found using a t-score calculator, with a right-tailed test, with 20-1 = 19 degrees of freedom and t = 2.95. Thus, the p-value of the test is 0.0041.

The p-value of the test is 0.0041 < 0.05, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.05 significance level to conclude that the mean cost has increased.

la parábola es el lugar

geométrico en el cual los puntos tienen una distancia idéntica, equidistantes,

de un punto denominado foco, f, y una recta denominada directriz

el radio vector de una

parábola es el segmento que existe entre un punto cualquiera y el foco.

por la ecuación se observa

que la parábola abre hacia la derecha, por lo cual podemos usar las siguientes fórmulas

la ecuación ordinaria de la

parábola es y^2 = 4px, donde p es la longitud desde el vértice de la parábola al

foco.

la fórmula de la directriz

es x + p = 0

resolviendo:

y^2-9x = 0

y^2 = 9x

4p = 9, entonces p = 9/4

entonces el foco tendrá la

coordenada f(9/4,0)

la directriz vendrá

expresada por

x + p = 0

x = -p

x = -9/4

el problema indica que la

ordenada es igual a 6, entonces

(6)^2=9x

x = 36/9

x = 4

entonces el punto al cual

hay que obtener la distancia será p(4,6)

calculando se tendrá: pf = 

pf = 6,25 u
