Determine whether the results below appear to have statistical significance, and also determine whether the results have practical significance. In a study of a weight loss program, 77 subjects lost an average of 4141 lbs. It is found that there is about a 4040% chance of getting such results with a diet that has no effect. Does the weight loss program have statistical significance?

No, the weight loss program doesn't have statistical significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that in a study of a weight loss program, 7 subjects lost an average of 41 lbs.

It is found that there is about a 40% chance of getting such results with a diet that has no effect.

Firstly, statistical significance means that the event is sure to be happen and there is a proper statistical calculation behind it.

But here it is stated that there is a 40% chance of getting such results with a diet that has no effect which means that the event is unlikely to happen by chance and it is just a prediction so, the weight loss program is not statistically significant.

Now, practically significant means that there is a large difference in the subjects being tested.

Here, the weight loss program is considered to be practically significant because there is a large amount of weight loss of 43 lbs of the subjects which is a large amount.

graphically?   well, you graph them both, the solutions is where they both intersect each other, since there are two solutions, meaning they will meet twice, or namely the linear will run into the quadratic curve twice, and where they meet, those x,y coordinates are the solutions to the system.

1. perpendicular

2. parallel

3. perpendicular
