An automobile manufacturer has given its car a 46.7 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted t

o test the actual MPG for this car since it is believed that the car has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 150 cars, they found a mean MPG of 46.5. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.1. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

z=\frac{46.5-46.7}{\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{150}}}=-2.23    

The p value would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since th p value is lower than the significance level of0.05 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly different from 46.7 MPG

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=46.5 represent the mean

\sigma=1.1 represent the population standard deviation

n=150 sample size  

\mu_o =46.7 represent the value to verify

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

z would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value

Hypothesis to test

We want to test if the true mean for this case is 46.7, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu = 46.7  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu \neq 46.7  

Since we know the population deviation the statistic is given by:

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Replacing we got:

z=\frac{46.5-46.7}{\frac{1.1}{\sqrt{150}}}=-2.23    

The p value would be given by:

p_v =2*P(z  

For this case since th p value is lower than the significance level of0.05 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly different from 46.7 MPG

Answer:

  • If the perimeter of a square measures 32 cm, each side measures 32/4= 8 cm, because all sides are equal.
  • The diagonal that passes through the center of the square divides the square into two triangles. The triangles are formed by a <u>hypotenuse </u>(the diagonal, which is k in this case), <u>and two sides,</u> that measure 8 cm each, in this case.
  • Because of Pythagoras' theorem, we know that the <u>lenght of the hypotenuse</u> (in this case the hypotenuse is k) equals the squared root of the sum of the squared sides, which in this case can be expressed as k=\sqrt{8^2+8^2} =\sqrt{64+64}=\sqrt{128}=11.31.
  • Then, k=11.31 cm.

Answer:

im pretty sure i got it correct inverse operations since we can say. 2 2 x x. + - = . If we start with x, then add 2 and subtract 2, ... multiplication and division, squares and square roots (for positive numbers), ... The bottom line is obviously false, and so are all of the previous lines. ... 98 x. -. -. = -. 19. 3 5 3 1 x+ - = 20. 2 3 4 7 x - + = 21. (. )3. 1. 1. 8 x-. = 22
