Explanation & Answer
Hey there! So for this question, you are going to let sin theta=x (or whatever variable you like)
So we get:
7x^2-22x+3=0
Look familiar now? So we can apply the quadratic formula to find x.
x=(22+-(22^2-4(7)(3))^1/2)/14
We get:
x=1/7 and x=3
Now, we back-substitute and get
sin theta=1/7
sin theta=3
So solving for theta we get:
theta=0.1433475689053653575950742801566183260989392131334643 (thanks to wolfram alpha for all the digits)
and, for 3, it is a special case where we get an imaginary number which is better when put into polar but I have the standard form as well:
theta=
1.57079632679489661923132169163975144209858469968755291048747... - 1.76274717403908605046521864995958461805632065652327082150659... i (result in radians)
r = 2.36108 (radius), theta = -48.2955° (angle)
Again thank you wolfram for copyable digits.
Let me know if you have any questions!

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# For today's lab, let's start by reading in our datafile
# 'brfss09_lab7.txt' into an object called mydata
mydata=read.table('brfss09_lab7.txt', header=T)
#This file contains:
dim(mydata)#100 Subjects, 11 variables
#With the following variables:
names(mydata)
# We have collected this data and would like to know
#if the values we have found in our sample are different
#from the reported values in the literature.
# For example, it has been reported that the average BMI
# in the population is 27.5. We would like to know if the
#values in our sample are somehow different than this value.
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. Formulating Hypotheses
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Step 1 of determining if our BMI values differ from the
#national average of 27.5 is to formulate our hypotheses
#We have TWO hypotheses
#1) The Null Hypothesis: H0: mu = 27.5
#2) The Alternative Hypothesis: HA: mu != 27.5
#NOTE: mu=Population Mean
#The above hypotheses are Two-Sided.
#By this I mean that we are looking to see if our sample values of
#BMI are greater than (>) OR less than (<) 27.5.
# A one-sided hypothesis test would look like:
#H0: mu < 27.5
#HA: mu > 27.5
#OR
#H0: mu > 27.5
#HA: mu < 27.5
#We will always use two-sided tests in this class,
#and similarly in the real world two-sided tests dominate.
#Once we have our hypotheses we will evaluate them
#and determine one of two outcomes:
# A) Reject the Null Hypothesis
# B) Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 2. T-statistics by Hand (well..with help from the computer)
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Recall from the last lab, that the formula for a T-statistic is:
# T = (SampleMean - PopMean) / (SampleSD/sqrt(N))
#Another way to write this would be:
# T = (xbar - mu) / (s/sqrt(N))
#In this instance PopMean (mu) is the NULL hypothesis
#value we are testing against.
#We can solve for the other values that we don't yet know:
mu=27.5
xbar=mean(mydata$bmi) #28.22
s=sd(mydata$bmi) #6.32
N=100
T = (xbar - mu) / (s/sqrt(N))
T #1.14
#We end up with a T value of ~ 1.14
#But how does this tell us if our mean is different from 27.5 ???!!!
#Before we move on, I want us to think about why we need
#to evaluate if our mean of 28.22 is different from 27.5.
#Certainly we can see that these are different numbers,
#so what are we really asking here?
#One way to think about it is that we are asking if our
#sample mean of 28.22 is different from 27.5 simply due to chance.
#Think of a coin tossing example:
#Your friend tosses a coin in the air and it lands on heads
#3 times in a row!
#While, kinda cool, seems like that is probably random chance.
#What about if it landed on heads 100 times in a row?!
#You would probably think she was cheating somehow!
#Though it is possible to have 100 heads in a row
#by chance alone, it is very unlikely
#The point at which we say that something is random vs not
#is determined by our alpha level.
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 3. Alpha Level
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The alpha level is determined a priori (a head of time)
#and used to set the threshold by which we consider something
#to be random chance
# A common alpha level is 0.05.
# We typically reject the null (think something is not chance)
#when the result we have (eg. 28.22) would only be
#that extreme < 5% of the time by chance.
#Recall from Lab 6, that we use the alpha level
#to help figure out critical values (c)
# c=qt(1-(alpha/2), df)
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 4. Evaluating our Results
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# There are 3 ways to evaluate if our mean of 28.22
# is different from the null of 27.5
# All three ways will yield the same conclusion.
#1) Compare T to a critical value (c)
#2) Evaluate the Confidence interval
#3) Compare the p value to our alpha level
###########################################################
#1) Compare T to a critical value (c)
#In order to compute the critical value (c),
#we must know the alpha level.
#We will choose a value of 0.05 (which is standard)
alpha=0.05
df=100-1
c=qt(1-(alpha/2), df)
#We can then compare the abosulte value of T (|T|)
#to the critical value c
#A) If |T| > c, then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If |T| < c, then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at T can c
abs(T)
c
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????
###########################################################
#2) Evaluate the Confidence interval
#Rather than compare T to c,
#we could instead compute the confidence interval.
#Recall the formula for the Confidence interval is:
#LB= xbar - c*(s/sqrt(N))
#UB= xbar + c*(s/sqrt(N))
LB = xbar - c*(s/sqrt(N))
UB= xbar + c*(s/sqrt(N))
#A) If mu is not within the Confidence Interval,
#then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If mu is within the Confidence Interval,
#then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at LB and UB
LB
UB
mu
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????
###########################################################
#3) Compare the p value to our alpha level
#Lastly, we could find the probability value (or p-value)
#for the T statistic we created.
#We can do this by using the pt() function we learned
#about last week in lab 6.
#There is a forumla for computing P values from T-statitics:
# pval = 2*(1-pt(abs(T), df))
pval = 2*(1-pt(abs(T), df))
#We then compare the p-value to our alpha level
#A) If pval < alpha, then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If pval > alpha, then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at our p-value.
pval
alpha
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????

#Exercise 4-1:

#than the populatiuin mean age of 56
# A) Write down the Null and Alternative Hypotheses

# 5. Using the t.test function
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
# One Sample T-Test : t.test(data$variable, mu)
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
#It was really awesome that we figured out T by hand!
#And then figured out the confidence intervals and P values!
#From now on, let's just use a program to do all this for us.
#The function t.test will presume an alpha level of 0.05 by default.
t.test(mydata$age, mu=56)
# t.test(mydata$bmi, mu=27.5)
#Much simpler!
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#Exercise 5-1: Use the t.test function to evaluate if
#A) the mean days of physical health (physhlth) is different
# than the population mean of 10? Reject the Null?
#B) the mean fruits per day (fruit_day) is different than
# the populatiuin mean of 4? Reject the Null?
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#A)

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 6. T-test with Trimmed Means
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#To use the T-test with trimmed means,
#we will need to load in the source code 'Rallfun-v33.txt'
#The trimmed mean T-test is beneficial in that it does not
#presume a perfect Normal Distribution
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
# Trimmed Mean T-Test:
# trimci(data$variable, tr=0.2, alpha=0.05, null.value=0)
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
#For example, if I wanted to test if the age was equal to 56
#using Trimmed Means I could do:
trimci(mydata$age, null.value=56)
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#Exercise 6-1: Use the trimci function to evaluate if
#A) the 20% trimmed mean of days of physical health (physhlth) is
# different than the populatiuin mean of 10? Reject the Null?
#B) the 20% trimmed mean fruits per day (fruit_day) is different
#than the populatiuin mean of 4? Reject the Null?
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#A)
#B)
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 7. Type 1 and Type 2 Errors
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Notice that we had very different answers to the same
#questions in Ex. 5-1 and 6-1
#Depending upon the method that we used.
#This brings us to discussing Type 1 and Type 2 Error
#A Type 1 error is when our test tells us to reject the null,
#but in truth we should not have
#A Type 2 error is when our test tells us to fail to reject the
#null, but in truth we should have rejected the null
#The following 2x2 square might make this easier to see.
# Truth
#------------------------------------
#| H0 | HA |
#-------------- |-------|-----------|
#My Test: H0 | H0 Type 2|
#-------------- |-------|-----------|
#My Test: HA Type 1 | HA |
#------------------------------------
#For the next exercise, let's presume that our test of the trimmed mean is the Truth

#we will use the T-distribution for all of today's lab.
#We will primarily work with the dataset brfss09_lab7.txt:

#------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# For today's lab, let's start by reading in our datafile
# 'brfss09_lab7.txt' into an object called mydata
mydata=read.table('brfss09_lab7.txt', header=T)
#This file contains:
dim(mydata)#100 Subjects, 11 variables
#With the following variables:
names(mydata)
# We have collected this data and would like to know
#if the values we have found in our sample are different
#from the reported values in the literature.
# For example, it has been reported that the average BMI
# in the population is 27.5. We would like to know if the
#values in our sample are somehow different than this value.
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 1. Formulating Hypotheses
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Step 1 of determining if our BMI values differ from the
#national average of 27.5 is to formulate our hypotheses
#We have TWO hypotheses
#1) The Null Hypothesis: H0: mu = 27.5
#2) The Alternative Hypothesis: HA: mu != 27.5
#NOTE: mu=Population Mean
#The above hypotheses are Two-Sided.
#By this I mean that we are looking to see if our sample values of
#BMI are greater than (>) OR less than (<) 27.5.
# A one-sided hypothesis test would look like:
#H0: mu < 27.5
#HA: mu > 27.5
#OR
#H0: mu > 27.5
#HA: mu < 27.5
#We will always use two-sided tests in this class,
#and similarly in the real world two-sided tests dominate.
#Once we have our hypotheses we will evaluate them
#and determine one of two outcomes:
# A) Reject the Null Hypothesis
# B) Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 2. T-statistics by Hand (well..with help from the computer)
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Recall from the last lab, that the formula for a T-statistic is:
# T = (SampleMean - PopMean) / (SampleSD/sqrt(N))
#Another way to write this would be:
# T = (xbar - mu) / (s/sqrt(N))
#In this instance PopMean (mu) is the NULL hypothesis
#value we are testing against.
#We can solve for the other values that we don't yet know:
mu=27.5
xbar=mean(mydata$bmi) #28.22
s=sd(mydata$bmi) #6.32
N=100
T = (xbar - mu) / (s/sqrt(N))
T #1.14
#We end up with a T value of ~ 1.14
#But how does this tell us if our mean is different from 27.5 ???!!!
#Before we move on, I want us to think about why we need
#to evaluate if our mean of 28.22 is different from 27.5.
#Certainly we can see that these are different numbers,
#so what are we really asking here?
#One way to think about it is that we are asking if our
#sample mean of 28.22 is different from 27.5 simply due to chance.
#Think of a coin tossing example:
#Your friend tosses a coin in the air and it lands on heads
#3 times in a row!
#While, kinda cool, seems like that is probably random chance.
#What about if it landed on heads 100 times in a row?!
#You would probably think she was cheating somehow!
#Though it is possible to have 100 heads in a row
#by chance alone, it is very unlikely
#The point at which we say that something is random vs not
#is determined by our alpha level.
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 3. Alpha Level
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# The alpha level is determined a priori (a head of time)
#and used to set the threshold by which we consider something
#to be random chance
# A common alpha level is 0.05.
# We typically reject the null (think something is not chance)
#when the result we have (eg. 28.22) would only be
#that extreme < 5% of the time by chance.
#Recall from Lab 6, that we use the alpha level
#to help figure out critical values (c)
# c=qt(1-(alpha/2), df)
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 4. Evaluating our Results
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# There are 3 ways to evaluate if our mean of 28.22
# is different from the null of 27.5
# All three ways will yield the same conclusion.
#1) Compare T to a critical value (c)
#2) Evaluate the Confidence interval
#3) Compare the p value to our alpha level
###########################################################
#1) Compare T to a critical value (c)
#In order to compute the critical value (c),
#we must know the alpha level.
#We will choose a value of 0.05 (which is standard)
alpha=0.05
df=100-1
c=qt(1-(alpha/2), df)
#We can then compare the abosulte value of T (|T|)
#to the critical value c
#A) If |T| > c, then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If |T| < c, then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at T can c
abs(T)
c
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????
###########################################################
#2) Evaluate the Confidence interval
#Rather than compare T to c,
#we could instead compute the confidence interval.
#Recall the formula for the Confidence interval is:
#LB= xbar - c*(s/sqrt(N))
#UB= xbar + c*(s/sqrt(N))
LB = xbar - c*(s/sqrt(N))
UB= xbar + c*(s/sqrt(N))
#A) If mu is not within the Confidence Interval,
#then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If mu is within the Confidence Interval,
#then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at LB and UB
LB
UB
mu
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????
###########################################################
#3) Compare the p value to our alpha level
#Lastly, we could find the probability value (or p-value)
#for the T statistic we created.
#We can do this by using the pt() function we learned
#about last week in lab 6.
#There is a forumla for computing P values from T-statitics:
# pval = 2*(1-pt(abs(T), df))
pval = 2*(1-pt(abs(T), df))
#We then compare the p-value to our alpha level
#A) If pval < alpha, then Reject the Null Hypothesis
#B) If pval > alpha, then Fail to Reject the Null Hypothesis
#Let's look at our p-value.
pval
alpha
#What decision do we make about the Null Hypothesis????

#Exercise 4-1:
#Evaluate if the mean age from our sample (mydata) is different
#than the populatiuin mean age of 56
# A) Write down the Null and Alternative Hypotheses
# B) Calculate the T-statistic by hand
# C) Evaluate the Null hypothesis by using ALL 3 methods that
# we just discussed
# D) Based on the results in C, do you Reject or Fail to Reject
# the Null Hypothesis?

#Method 1: Compare T to a critical value (c)
#Method 2: Evaluate the Confidence interval

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 5. Using the t.test function
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
# One Sample T-Test : t.test(data$variable, mu)
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
#It was really awesome that we figured out T by hand!
#And then figured out the confidence intervals and P values!
#From now on, let's just use a program to do all this for us.
#The function t.test will presume an alpha level of 0.05 by default.
t.test(mydata$age, mu=56)
# t.test(mydata$bmi, mu=27.5)
#Much simpler!
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#Exercise 5-1: Use the t.test function to evaluate if
#A) the mean days of physical health (physhlth) is different
# than the population mean of 10? Reject the Null?
#B) the mean fruits per day (fruit_day) is different than
# the populatiuin mean of 4? Reject the Null?
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#

# 6. T-test with Trimmed Means
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#To use the T-test with trimmed means,
#we will need to load in the source code 'Rallfun-v33.txt'
#The trimmed mean T-test is beneficial in that it does not
#presume a perfect Normal Distribution
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
# Trimmed Mean T-Test:
# trimci(data$variable, tr=0.2, alpha=0.05, null.value=0)
#^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^#
#For example, if I wanted to test if the age was equal to 56
#using Trimmed Means I could do:
trimci(mydata$age, null.value=56)
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#
#Exercise 6-1: Use the trimci function to evaluate if
#A) the 20% trimmed mean of days of physical health (physhlth) is
# different than the populatiuin mean of 10? Reject the Null?
#B) the 20% trimmed mean fruits per day (fruit_day) is different
#than the populatiuin mean of 4? Reject the Null?
#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#*#

#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
# 7. Type 1 and Type 2 Errors
#---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
#Notice that we had very different answers to the same
#questions in Ex. 5-1 and 6-1
#Depending upon the method that we used.
#This brings us to discussing Type 1 and Type 2 Error
#A Type 1 error is when our test tells us to reject the null,
#but in truth we should not have
#A Type 2 error is when our test tells us to fail to reject the
#null, but in truth we should have rejected the null
#The following 2x2 square might make this easier to see.
# Truth
#------------------------------------
#| H0 | HA |
#-------------- |-------|-----------|
#My Test: H0 | H0 Type 2|
#-------------- |-------|-----------|
#My Test: HA Type 1 | HA |
#------------------------------------
#For the next exercise, let's presume that our test of the trimmed mean is the Truth
