Question 1 - A principle at a certain high school claims that the students in her school are above average in SAT. She collects a random sample of 50 students and given an SAT test that provided with a mean score of 541. Is there sufficient evidence statistically to support the principal’s claim? The mean population SAT score is 500 with a standard deviation of 100. SAT scores are normally distributed. Please show all the steps involved in a hypothesis testing including proper statistical symbols, formula used, and report/interpret results in complete sentences. Question 2 (13 points):
Blood nicotine levels in regular cigarette smokers have a mean of 100 mg with a standard deviation of 15 mg. A smoking researcher investigates whether e-cigarettes have positive or negative effect on blood nicotine levels. He gave e-cigarettes to a random sample of 30 smokers and found a mean nicotine level of 140 mg. Test the hypothesis that e-cigarettes had an effect. Please show all the steps involved in a hypothesis testing including proper statistical symbols, formula used, and report/interpret results in complete sentences.

Question 3 (13 points):
Blood nicotine levels in regular cigarette smokers have a mean of 100 mg but standard deviation is unknown. A smoking researcher investigates whether e-cigarettes have positive or negative effect on blood nicotine levels. He gave e-cigarettes to a random sample of 30 smokers and found a mean nicotine level of 140 mg with a standard deviation of 20 mg. Test the hypothesis that e-cigarettes had an effect. Please show all the steps involved in a hypothesis testing including proper statistical symbols, formula used, and report/interpret results in complete sentences.

Cone w has a radius of 8 cm and a height of 5 cm. square pyramid x has the same base area and height as cone w. paul and manuel disagree on how the volumes of cone w and square pyramid x are related. examine their arguments. which statement explains whose argument is correct and why? paul manuel the volume of square pyramid x is equal to the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is three times the volume of cone w. this can be proven by finding the base area and volume of cone w, along with the volume of square pyramid x. the base area of cone w is π(r2) = π(82) = 200.96 cm2. the volume of cone w is one third(area of base)(h) = one third(200.96)(5) = 334.93 cm3. the volume of square pyramid x is (area of base)(h) = (200.96)(5) = 1,004.8 cm3. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. paul's argument is correct; manuel used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect formula to find the volume of square pyramid x. manuel's argument is correct; paul used the incorrect base area to find the volume of square pyramid x.

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .
