Answer:

$Depth = 14.9\ metres$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Desc = 20.6\ metres$

$Asc = 5\frac{7}{10}\ metres$

Required

Determine the depth

The depth is the distance between the two distances as follows'

$Depth = |Desc - Asc|$

Substitute values

$Depth = |20.6 - 5\frac{7}{10}|$

Convert fraction to decimal

$Depth = |20.6 - 5.70|$

$Depth = |14.9|$

$Depth = 14.9\ metres$

The given question is incomplete. The complete question is:

Omar rented a truck for one day. There was a base fee of $17.95, and there was an additional charge of 98 cents for each mile driven. Omar had to pay $23 when he returned the truck. For how many mile did he drive the truck?

Answer: Omar drove the truck for 5.15 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Base fee = 17.95 $

Additional charge per mile = 98 cents = 0.98 $ ( 100cents = 1$)

Now Omar payed = 22 $

Let the miles he travelled = x

Now , $17.95+0.98\times x=23$

Solvimg for x :

$x=5.15miles$

Thus Omar drove the truck for 5.15 miles

Answer:

$z=\frac{25-24}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{16}}}=2$

$p_v =2*P(Z>2)=0.0455$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can conclude that the true mean differs from 24 at 5% of significance

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=25$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=2$ represent the sample population deviation for the sample

$n=16$ sample size

$\mu_o =24$ represent the value that we want to test

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

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is different from 24, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 24$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 24$

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 but we know the population deviation so is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

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

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{25-24}{\frac{2}{\sqrt{16}}}=2$

P-value

Since is a two sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(Z>2)=0.0455$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis, and we can conclude that the true mean differs from 24 at 5% of significance
