Using proportions, it is found that Juan spends 15 minutes on each 5-point problem.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and is solved using a rule of three.

In this problem, the amount of time is proportional to the amount of points the problem is worth. Hence, for a 5-point problem, in a 75-minute time, the time is given by:

t = 75/5 = 15 minutes.

A study is conducted to determine whether a new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by at least 30 days for a certain t
anygoal [31]

Answer:

H0: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days

Ha: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 or more than 30 days.

If fail to reject H0 (the null hypothesis), the conclusion is that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is a statement from a population parameter which is either rejected or accepted (fail to reject) upon testing. It is expressed using the equality sign.

The alternate hypothesis is also a statement from a population parameter which negates the null hypothesis and is accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. It is expressed using any of the inequality signs.

The test is a two-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using more than or equal to.

If I fail to reject H0, it means the test statistic falls within the region bounded by the critical values.

It would therefore be concluded that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.

What is the reciprocal of<br> of 1/5?
irga5000 [103]

The reciprocal of 1/5 is 5.

Reciprocals are numbers than when multiplied equal a product of 1.  In this question, 1/5 * 5 = 1.  An easy trick for finding reciprocals is flipping a fraction.

Hope this helps!!
