The next two questions refer to the following information: UCLA conducted a survey of more than 263,000 college freshmen from 385 colleges in fall 2005. The results of student expected majors by gender were reported in The Chronicle of Higher Education (2/2/2006) . Suppose a survey of 5000 graduating females and 5000 graduating males was done as a follow-up last year to determine what their actual major was. The results are shown in the tables for Exercises 7 and 8. The second column in each table does not add to 100% because of rounding.

Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the actual college major of graduating females fits the distribution of their expected majors.

• Decision: Do not reject null when $a=0\text{.}\text{05}$ and $a=0\text{.}\text{01}$ ; Conclusion: There is insufficient evidence to conclude that the distribution of majors by graduating females does not fit the distribution of expected majors.

Conduct a hypothesis test to determine if the actual college major of graduating males fits the distribution of their expected majors.

A recent debate about where in the United States skiers believe the skiing is best prompted the following survey. Test to see if the best ski area is independent of the level of the skier.

U.S. Ski Area Beginner Intermediate Advanced
Tahoe 20 30 40
Utah 10 30 60

• 10.53
• 0.0324
• Decision: Reject null; Conclusion: Best ski area and level of skier are not independent.

Car manufacturers are interested in whether there is a relationship between the size of car an individual drives and the number of people in the driver’s family (that is, whether car size and family size are independent). To test this, suppose that 800 car owners were randomly surveyed with the following results. Conduct a test for independence.

Family Size Sub&Compact Mid-size Full-size Van&Truck
1 20 35 40 35
2 20 50 70 80
3 - 4 20 50 100 90
5+ 20 30 70 70

College students may be interested in whether or not their majors have any effect on starting salaries after graduation. Suppose that 300 recent graduates were surveyed as to their majors in college and their starting salaries after graduation. Below are the data. Conduct a test for independence.

Major <$50,000$50,000 - $68,999$69,000 +
English 5 20 5
Engineering 10 30 60
Nursing 10 15 15
Psychology 20 30 20

• Decision: Reject null; Conclusion: Major and starting salary are not independent events.

Some travel agents claim that honeymoon hot spots vary according to age of the bride and groom. Suppose that 280 East Coast recent brides were interviewed as to where they spent their honeymoons. The information is given below. Conduct a test for independence.

Location 20 - 29 30 - 39 40 - 49 50 and over
Niagara Falls 15 25 25 20
Poconos 15 25 25 10
Europe 10 25 15 5
Virgin Islands 20 25 15 5

find the 15th term of the geometric sequince whose first is 18 and last term of 387
I know this work

The given of f(x=x-2. then what is the value of this f(3) 5f(x+1)
hmm well what is the answer
Abhi
how do they get the third part x = (32)5/4
can someone help me with some logarithmic and exponential equations.
20/(×-6^2)
Salomon
okay, so you have 6 raised to the power of 2. what is that part of your answer
I don't understand what the A with approx sign and the boxed x mean
it think it's written 20/(X-6)^2 so it's 20 divided by X-6 squared
Salomon
I'm not sure why it wrote it the other way
Salomon
I got X =-6
Salomon
ok. so take the square root of both sides, now you have plus or minus the square root of 20= x-6
oops. ignore that.
so you not have an equal sign anywhere in the original equation?
hmm
Abhi
is it a question of log
Abhi
🤔.
Abhi
I rally confuse this number And equations too I need exactly help
salma
But this is not salma it's Faiza live in lousvile Ky I garbage this so I am going collage with JCTC that the of the collage thank you my friends
salma

hello
Sherica
im all ears I need to learn
Sherica
right! what he said ⤴⤴⤴

hii
Uday
hi
salma
what is a good calculator for all algebra; would a Casio fx 260 work with all algebra equations? please name the cheapest, thanks.
a perfect square v²+2v+_
kkk nice
algebra 2 Inequalities:If equation 2 = 0 it is an open set?
or infinite solutions?
Kim
The answer is neither. The function, 2 = 0 cannot exist. Hence, the function is undefined.

No. 7x -4y is simplified from 4x + (3y + 3x) -7y
how do you translate this in Algebraic Expressions
Need to simplify the expresin. 3/7 (x+y)-1/7 (x-1)=

preparation of nanomaterial
Yes, Nanotechnology has a very fast field of applications and their is always something new to do with it...
what is system testing
what is the application of nanotechnology?
Stotaw
In this morden time nanotechnology used in many field . 1-Electronics-manufacturad IC ,RAM,MRAM,solar panel etc 2-Helth and Medical-Nanomedicine,Drug Dilivery for cancer treatment etc 3- Atomobile -MEMS, Coating on car etc. and may other field for details you can check at Google
Azam
anybody can imagine what will be happen after 100 years from now in nano tech world
Prasenjit
after 100 year this will be not nanotechnology maybe this technology name will be change . maybe aftet 100 year . we work on electron lable practically about its properties and behaviour by the different instruments
Azam
name doesn't matter , whatever it will be change... I'm taking about effect on circumstances of the microscopic world
Prasenjit
how hard could it be to apply nanotechnology against viral infections such HIV or Ebola?
Damian
silver nanoparticles could handle the job?
Damian
not now but maybe in future only AgNP maybe any other nanomaterials
Azam
Hello
Uday
I'm interested in Nanotube
Uday
this technology will not going on for the long time , so I'm thinking about femtotechnology 10^-15
Prasenjit
can nanotechnology change the direction of the face of the world
At high concentrations (>0.01 M), the relation between absorptivity coefficient and absorbance is no longer linear. This is due to the electrostatic interactions between the quantum dots in close proximity. If the concentration of the solution is high, another effect that is seen is the scattering of light from the large number of quantum dots. This assumption only works at low concentrations of the analyte. Presence of stray light.
the Beer law works very well for dilute solutions but fails for very high concentrations. why?
how did you get the value of 2000N.What calculations are needed to arrive at it
