A hypothesis test is to be performed to test the equality of two population means. The sample sizes are large and the samples are independent. A 95% confidence interval for the difference between the population means is (1.4, 8.7). If the hypothesis test is based on the same samples, which of the following do you know for sure: A: The hypothesis µ1 = µ2 would be rejected at the 5% level of significance.
B: The hypothesis µ1 = µ2 would be rejected at the 10% level of significance.
C: The hypothesis µ1 = µ2 would be rejected at the 1% level of significance.
A) A and B
B) A and C
C) A only
D) A, B, and C

C) A only

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the null hypothesis is the default hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis is  the research hypothesis. The alternative hypothesis usually comes in place to challenge the null hypothesis in order to determine if the test is statistically significant or not.

Similarly,

In hypothesis testing, the confidence interval consist of all reasonable value of the population mean. Values for which the null hypothesis will be rejected .

Given that:

At 95% confidence interval for the  difference between the population means is (1.4, 8.7).

The level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05  = 5%

So , If the hypothesis test is based on the same samples, The hypothesis µ1 = µ2 would be rejected at the 5% level of significance.

-14 is the answer

hope this : ))

d. $180

step-by-step explanation:

if the dimensions of the room is 9ft by 12 ft, we have the area of the floor as,

so the area of the floor is 108 square feet, converting that into square yards we get,

the cost of carpet is $15 per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 12 square yards is,

hence, the cost of carpet is $180.

assuming the dimensions of the room be,

15 ft by 12 ft

so, the area of the floor of that room is,

we can convert 180 square feet into square yards, we know that,

1 sq ft = 0.111 sq yard

so, 180 square feet is,

so the area of floor is 20 square yards.

now, the cost of carpet is 15 dollars per square yard, therefore the cost of carpet for 20 square yards is,

so, it will cost $300.
