An internet provider states that, on average, the daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is 4.5 hours. A sociologist studying the behaviors of internet consumers believes the average daily amount an adult spends on the internet is different than the amount stated by the internet provider. After completing a study, the sociologist found that the average daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is 5.9 hours, on average. As the sociologist sets up a hypothesis test to determine if their belief is correct, what is their claim? a. The average daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is different than 4.5 hours.
b. The average daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is different than 5.9 hours.
c. Adults spend a majority of their time on the internet.
d. The average daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is 4.5 hours.

a. The average daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is different than 4.5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

An internet provider states that, on average, the daily amount of time an adult spends on the internet is 4.5 hours.

At the null hypothesis, it is claimed that the mean is of 4.5 hours, that is:

A sociologist studying the behaviors of internet consumers believes the average daily amount an adult spends on the internet is different than the amount stated by the internet provider.

At the alternative hypothesis, the sociologist claim, is that the mean is different of 4.5, that is:

Thus, the correct answer is given by option a.

arithmetic sequence

step-by-step explanation:

given that a sequence has terms as

19, 15, 11,

this is represented on a graph

the pattern indicates that the sequence is an arithmetic sequence with i term

a=19 and common difference d =-4

any general term

thus the sequence is reduced by 4 for each successive term starting from 1 and nth term is

24-5n.

first negative term would start after 5th term

5th term =24-25< 0

from 5th term onwards the sequence would be negative.
