Pour connaître le prix moyen d’une œuvre, il faut calculer la dépense totale en livres et la diviser par le nombre total de livres achetés. La bibliothèque universitaire a dépensé : 500 € sur les livres de macroéconomie 1000 € sur les livres de microéconomie 500 € sur les livres de statistiques Les prix unitaires sont : 50 € pour les livres de macroéconomie 50 € pour les livres de microéconomie 25 € pour les livres de statistiques Pour connaître le nombre total de livres achetés dans chaque catégorie, nous divisons les dépenses par le prix unitaire. Pour les livres de macroéconomie : 500 € / 50 € = 10 livres Pour les livres de microéconomie : 1000 € / 50 € = 20 livres Pour les livres de statistiques : 500 € / 25 € = 20 livres Le nombre total de livres achetés est de 10 + 20 + 20 = 50 livres. Maintenant, pour trouver le prix moyen par livre, on divise la dépense totale par le nombre total de livres : Dépense totale = 500 € + 1 000 € + 500 € = 2 000 € Prix moyen par livre = Dépense totale / Nombre total de livres = 2000€ / 50 = 40€ Ainsi, le prix moyen d'une œuvre est de 40 €, ce qui correspond à l'option (A).

7.57 Online communication. A study suggests that the average college student spends 10 hours per week communicating with others online. You believe that this is an underestimate and decide to collect your own sample for a hypothesis test. You randomly sample 60 students from your dorm and find that on average they spent 13.5 hours a week communicating with others online. A friend of yours, who offers to help you with the hypothesis test, comes up with the following set of hypotheses. Indicate any errors you see. H0 :x ̄<10hours HA : x ̄ > 13.5 hours
