Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The summary of the given statistics data include:

sample size n = 400

sample mean \overline x = 6.86

standard deviation = 4.37

Level of significance ∝ = 0.01

Population Mean \mu = 6.00

Assume that a simple random sample has been selected. Identify the null and alternative​ hypotheses, test​ statistic, P-value, and state the final conclusion that addresses the original claim.

To start with the hypothesis;

The null and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as :

H_o: \mu = 6.00 \\ \\  H_1 : \mu \neq 6.00

The test statistics for this two tailed test can be computed as:

z= \dfrac{\overline x - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt {n}}}

z= \dfrac{6.86 - 6.00}{\dfrac{4.37}{\sqrt {400}}}

z= \dfrac{0.86}{\dfrac{4.37}{20}}

z = 3.936

degree of freedom = n - 1

degree of freedom = 400 - 1

degree of freedom = 399

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.01

P -value = 2 × (z < 3.936)  since it is a two tailed test

P -value = 2 × ( 1  - P(z ≤ 3.936)

P -value = 2 × ( 1  -0.9999)

P -value = 2 × ( 0.0001)

P -value =  0.0002

Since the P-value is less than level of significance , we reject H_o at level of significance 0.01

Conclusion: There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the original claim that the mean of the population of earthquake depths is  5.00 km.

A PAIR OF JEANS MARKED AT R450 IS SOLD AT DISCOUNT OF 25%.​
Stolb23 [73]

Original price is the jeans = Rs450

Discount = 25%

Discount amount

= 25% of 450

= 25%(450)

= 25/100 × 450

= 25/10 × 45

= 5/2 × 45

= 225/2

= Rs112.5

Price after discount

= original price - discount amount

= 450 - 112.5

= Rs337.5
