The weights of soy patties sold by a diner are normally distributed. A random sample of 25 patties yields a mean weight of 4.2 o

unces with a sample standard deviation of 0.5 ounces. At the 0.05 level of​ significance, perform a hypothesis test to see if the true mean weight is less than 4 ounces. What is the correct calculated value of the test​ statistic?

Answer:

t=\frac{4.2-4}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{25}}}=2

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df =n-1=25-1=24

And the p value would be given by:

p_v = P(t_{24}>2) =0.0285

And since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly hiher than 4. And the claim for this case is not appropiate      

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided

\bar X=4.2 represent the sample mean for the weigths

s=0.5 represent the sample standard deviation

n=25 sample size      

\mu_o =4 represent the value that we want to analyze

\alpha represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.    

t would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value for the test

System of hypothesis

We want to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean weigth is less than 4 or not, the system of hypothesis would be:      

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 4      

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 4      

The statistic for this case is given by:

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

Replacing the info given we got:

t=\frac{4.2-4}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{25}}}=2  

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df =n-1=25-1=24

And the p value would be given by:

p_v = P(t_{24}>2) =0.0285

And since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean for this case is significantly hiher than 4. And the claim for this case is not appropiate

Can someone explain to me how to round to the nearest 10 dollars?
Leni [432]
Pinpoint the ten's place.
look at the one's place. It is a digit ≥5, round up. If it is digit <5, round down.
all the digits to the right of the ten's place becomes 0.
for example, if you are given $216.23, the ten's place is a 1. Look at the number to the right of it, the one's place is a 6, bigger than 5, so you round up, the 1 becomes a 2. the result is $220.00
if you are given $214.23, the 1 stays a 1 because 4 is smaller than 5, the result is $210.00

The correct scientific notation for the number 500.0 is
marishachu [46]

Answer:

The correct scientific notation for the number 500.0 is 500=5.0\times10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

While writing a large number in scientific notation we do below mentioned two things.

  • We take any number between 1 and 10
  • Then we multiply this number with an exponent of 10.

Hence, any number in scientific notation is in the form a\times10^b

Here a is any number between 1 and 10.

b is exponent of 10.

Now, writing 500 in scientific notation, we take a = 5

Hence, we have to take b = 2, since 5 multiplied by 100 equas 500.

Thus, we have

500=5.0\times10^2

+4⅚

Add integers and fractions

 5⅙

<u>+4⅚ </u>

 9⁶/₆

Convert the fraction to an integer

⁶/₆ = 1

Add the 1 to the 9

9 + 1 = 10 ft

If Madison and Jade lay end to end, they will they reach 10 ft.
