Page < 2 of 2 - ZOOM + The set of all 3 x 3 upper triangular matrices 6) Determine whether each of the following sets, together with the standard operations, is a vector space. If it is, then simply write 'Vector space'. You do not have to prove all ten vector space axioms. If it is not, then identify one of the ten vector space axioms with its number in the attached sheet that fails and also show that how it fails. a) The set of all polynomials of degree four or less. b) The set of all 2 x 2 singular matrices. c) The set {(x, y) : x ≥ 0, y is a real number}. d) C[0,1], the set of all continuous functions defined on the interval [0,1]. 7) Given u = (-2,1,1) and v = (4,2,0) are two vectors in R³-space. Find u xv and show that it is orthogonal to both u and v. 8) a) Find the equation of the least squares regression line for the data points below.

1. A consumer group claims that the mean annual consumption of cheddar cheese by a person in the United States is at most 10.3 pounds. A random sample of 100 people in the United States has a mean annual cheddar cheese consumption of 9.9 pounds. Assume the population standard deviation is 2.1 pounds. At a = 0.05, can you reject the claim? (Adapted from U.S. Department of Agriculture) State the hypotheses: Calculate the test statistic: Calculate the P-value: Conclusion (reject or fail to reject Ho): 2. The CEO of a manufacturing facility claims that the mean workday of the company's assembly line employees is less than 8.5 hours. A random sample of 25 of the company's assembly line employees has a mean workday of 8.2 hours. Assume the population standard deviation is 0.5 hour and the population is normally distributed. At a = 0.01, test the CEO's claim. State the hypotheses: Calculate the test statistic: Calculate the P-value: Conclusion (reject or fail to reject Ho): Statistics
