Answer:
Yes. The data provide enough evidence to support the claim that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
P-value=P(t>2.84)=0.0024
Step-by-step explanation:
Hypothesis test on the population mean.
The claim is that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:
The significance level is α=0.05.
The sample size is n=354. The sample mean is 25.8 pounds and the sample standard deviation is 5.3 pounds. As the population standard deviation is estimated from the sample standard deviation, we will use a t-statistic.
The degrees of freedom are:
The t-statistic is:
For a right tailed test and 353 degrees of freedom, the P-value is:
As the P-value is smaller than the significance level, the effect is significant and the null hypothesis is rejected.
There is enough evidence to support the claim that the mean weight of one-year-old boys is greater than 25 pounds.
Answer:
Pipe 1 alone fills a tank in 10 min
Pipe 2 alone fills the tank in 20 min
If both are turned on together, how long will it take to fill the tank???
Pipe 1 fills at the RATE of 1/10th tank per min
Pipe 2 fills at the RATE of 1/20th tank per min
Pipe 1 + Pipe 2 fills at the rate of 1/10+1/20 or 3/20th tank per min
Let x= time to fill the tank
(3/20)(x)=1 Where 1 denotes a full tank (Multiply both sides by 20)
3x=20
x=6 2/3 min----------both working together
NOW YOUR PROBLEM
Let x= amount of time for smaller pipe to fill the tank
Then (x-5)=amount of time for larger pipe to fill the tank
NOW HERE'S WHERE THE RECIPROCAL COMES IN:
The smaller pipe fills the tank at the RATE of 1/x cu units per min
The larger tank fills the tank at the RATE of 1/(x-5) cu units per min
Together, they fill the tank at the rate of 1/x+(1/(x-5)) cu units per min
But now we are told that together the fill the tank in 11 1/9 minutes. so our equation to solve is:
(1/x+(1/(x-5))(11 1/9)=1 where 1 denotes a full tank. In fact, in each of the above reciprocals, the 1 denotes a full tank.
So, dividing both sides by 11 1/9, we get:
1/x+(1/(x-5)=1/(11 1/9)-------------- which is your equation
I assume that you have no problems solviing this eq.
