Answer:

Jillian is not correct

Jillian has summed up the possible number of codes for each digit instead of multiplying it

Step-by-step explanation:

The lock has a code that consists of 3 number

It is given that the number in the lock code can be used between 0 to 39

Thus, out of total 40 set of numbers (i.e 0-39), the numbers can be repeated.

This means for all three code numbers the opportunity of choosing a number is same  i.e. between  0-39

Now, the first digit of the code can be any number between  0-39

Like wise the second and third  digit of the code can be any number between  0-39

Thus. the possible number of codes with repetition allowed are

40 * 40* 40\\64000

Hence, Jillian is not correct

Jillian has summed up the possible number of codes for each digit instead of multiplying it

39*3=117 not 120 so that is why she is wrong

the bases of a trapezoid are 8 and 6 inches it's height is 5 inches what is the area of the trapezoid?​
Fantom [35]

Answer:

35 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is the average of the bases times the height.

Base 1: 8, Base 2: 6, Height: 5

(8 + 6)/2 = 7

7 * 5 = 35 in^2

An educator claims that the average salary of substitute teachers in school districts is less than $60 per day. A random sample
valentina_108 [34]

Answer:

t=\frac{58.875-60}{\frac{5.083}{\sqrt{8}}}=-0.626    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=8-1=7  

The p value would be given by:

p_v =P(t_{(7)}  

Since the p value is higher than 0.1 we have enough evidence to FAIl to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean is less than 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

60, 56, 60, 55, 70, 55, 60, and 55.

We can calculate the mean and deviation with these formulas:

\bar X= \frac{\sum_{i=1}^n X_i}{n}

s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (X_i -\bar X)^2}{n-1}}

Replacing we got:

\bar X=58.875 represent the mean

s=5.083 represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

n=8 sample size  

\mu_o =60 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.1 represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true mean is less than 60, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 60  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 60  

The statistic would be given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Replacing the info we got:

t=\frac{58.875-60}{\frac{5.083}{\sqrt{8}}}=-0.626    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=8-1=7  

The p value would be given by:

p_v =P(t_{(7)}  

Since the p value is higher than 0.1 we have enough evidence to FAIl to reject the null hypothesis and we can't conclude that the true mean is less than 60
