Lead in Medicine Listed below are the lead concentrations (in μg/g) measured in different Ayurveda medicines. Ayurveda is a trad

itional medical system commonly used in India. The lead concentrations listed here are from medicines manufactured in the United States (based on data from "Lead, Mercury, and Arsenic in US and Indian Manufactured Ayurvedic Medicines Sold via the Internet," by Saper et al., Journal of the American Medical Association, Vol. 300, No. 8. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean lead concentration for all such medicines is less than 14 μg/g.

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by calculating mean and standard deviation

Mean = sum of all values/total number of values

= 110.5/10

= 11.05

Standard deviation = √375.725/9

= √41.7472

= 6.46

Null hypothesis =

h0: μ = 14

Alternate hypothesis =

H1: μ < 14

Alpha is set at 0.05

Test statistic

T = mean - (μ)/(sd/√n)

=(11.05-14)/(6.46/√10)

= -2.95/2.0428

= -1.4441

P value calculator

df = n-1 = 10 -1 = 9

P Value = trust(x,df,tails)

= trust(1.4441,9,1)

= 0.0913

In conclusion our pvalue is greater than alpha level at 0.05 so we do not have sufficient evidence to reject the null hypothesis. We do not have enough evidence to accept the alternate so we reject claim that mean lead concentration for all such medicine is < than 14μg/g

4. A sports car accelerates from rest to a final velocity of 64 m/s at a rate of 12.3
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

t = 5.2\ s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

a= 12.3m/s^2 --- acceleration

v = 64m/s --- final velocity

u =0m/s --- initial velocity (it is 0, because the car starts from rest)

Required

Determine the time taken

This will be solved using Newton's first equation of motion:

v = u + at

Substitute values for v, u and a

64 = 0 + 12.3*t

64 = 12.3t

12.3t = 64

Make t the subject

t = \frac{64}{12.3}

t = 5.2\ s

<em>Hence, the time taken is approximately 5.2 seconds</em>

One leg of a right triangle has length 7, and the triangle's hypotenuse has length 9. What is the length of the other leg, expre
musickatia [10]
<h2>Length of the other leg, expressed in radical form is 4\sqrt{2}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

We have Pythagoras theorem,

      Hypotenuse² = Base² +  Perpendicular²

Here we have

        Hypotenuse = 9

        Base = 7

Substituting

      9² = 7² +  Perpendicular²    

      Perpendicular² = 81 - 49

      Perpendicular² = 32

      \texttt{Perpendicular = }\sqrt{32}\\\\\texttt{Perpendicular = }\sqrt{16\times 2}\\\\\texttt{Perpendicular = }4\sqrt{2}

Length of the other leg, expressed in radical form is 4\sqrt{2}
