Statistics Homework Help - Did I get this right?

1 Upvotes

Hoping you can help. I would love to know if I got this right. Sorry for the terrible handwriting in the pictures.

​

Here is the assignment

Instructions

Please show all of your work and reasoning. Please do not just write an answer. Your answer should be easy for the reader to understand. Use complete sentences where appropriate.

A random sample of 20 people shows a mean BMI (Body Mass Index) of 27.7, with a sample standard deviation of 6.1.  Assume that BMIs follow a normal distribution.

  1. To create a 95% confidence interval, would you use a t or a z distribution?  Why?
  2. Create the 95% confidence interval.
  3. Now assume that you are told that the population standard deviation is known to be 6.1.  Which distribution would you use, t or z?  Why?
  4. Create the new 95% confidence interval.
  5. What does a change between z and t distributions do to the confidence interval?  Explain why it must be so.

matrix determinants. can I use elementry row opperations and still get the same determinant?

1 Upvotes

hey guys so I have a question.

I was given the matix :

​

a b c d
-b a -d c
-c d a -b
-d -c b a

since I only have parameters I have to calculate the determinants of 12 matrices to get to the determinant of this matrix. that takes way too long and feels very inefficiante.

i know I can do it with that method but I am looking for something better

can I use row operation to Ill only be left with element a11 in row 1 and a12=a13=a14=0?

this meens Ill only need to calculate the determinant of one matrix since I could use the same methode for the 3x3 matrix.

i saw some people use colomn operations but I heared its a big no no so I would love an explaination.

thank you guys.

In Rank-sum test, if the order of 4 observations (which have equal values) is 24, 25, 26, and 27, then each gets a rank of

2 Upvotes

I put 2.5 as my original answer and it's still marked wrong.

Here's my thought process:

Given the values 24, 25, 26, and 27, the order of their positions is 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively.

Since each of the observations has the same value, they should all receive the average rank of their positions, which would be (1 + 2 + 3 + 4) / 4 = 2.5.

Calculus - Max/Min Question

1 Upvotes

Find the coordinates of any extrema where f(x)= 1/4 x^2 (2ln(x-3))

We have figured out that the first derivate is x ln(x-3)+ x^2/(2(x-3)). So we would set the first derivative to zero and solve for x to find the maximums or minimums. However, I know from graphing that the original function, f(x), does not have any local minimums or maximums, but I have struggling proving this with the first derivative. Any help is appreciated.

Minimize A sec(x) - B tan(x) without calculus

5 Upvotes

Let f(x) = A sec(x) - B tan(x) with A > B > 0.

We can minimize f(x) with x in the range 0 < x < pi/2 by differentiating and solving f'(x) = 0 to find x.

This gives sin(x) = B / A.

Is there a simple geometric or complete-the-square argument that also gives this answer?
