An appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W. From pre

vious studies, it is believed that power consumption for microwave ovens is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 15 W. A consumer group has decided to try to discover if the claim appears true. They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W. 1) The appropriate hypotheses to determine if the manufacturer's claim appears reasonable are H subscript 0 colon________ and H subscript 1 colon________. (2 points) 2) For a test with a level of significance of 0.05, the critical value would be ________. (2 point) 3) The value of the test statistic is ________. (4 points) 4) Is there evidence that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W? (2 points)

Answer:

We conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W with a population standard deviation of 15 W.

They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W.

Let \mu = <u><em>mean power consumption for microwave ovens.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 250 W     {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of no more than 250 W}

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 250 W     {means that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W}

The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample z test statistics</u> as we know about the population standard deviation;

                                T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

where, \bar X = sample mean power consumption for ovens = 257.3 W

            σ = population standard deviation = 15 W

            n = sample of microwave ovens = 20

So, <em><u>the test statistics</u></em>  =  \frac{257.3-250}{\frac{15}{\sqrt{20} } }

                                      =  2.176

The value of z test statistics is 2.176.

<u>Now, at 0.05 significance level the z table gives critical value of 1.645 for right-tailed test.</u>

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as 2.176 > 1.645, so we have sufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will fall in the rejection region due to which <u>we reject our null hypothesis</u>.

Therefore, we conclude that a compact microwave oven consumes a mean of more than 250 W.

20000*0.45 = 9000 in the bond
20000*0.15 = 3000 in the CD
20000*0.20 = 4000 in stocks
20000*0.029 = 580 in savings

A=9000(1 + 4.35%)^3 = 10,226.33
A=3000(1 + 2.90%)^3 = 3,268.64
A=4000 (1 + 8%) x (1 - 4%) x (1 + 6%) = 4,396.03
A=580(1 + 4.35%)^3 = 4,545.04
Total value = 22,436.04
Gain = 22,436.04 - 20,000 = 2,436.04

⦁ A sphere is inscribed in a cube with a volume of 27 cm3. What is the volume of the sphere?
lyudmila [28]

Answer:

≈ 14.14 cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the side length of the cube.

V=S³

27=S³

∛27=∛s³

3=S

Then the volume of the sphere.

V=\frac{4}{3} × π(pi) × r³(radius cubed)

V=\frac{4}{3} × π(pi) × (1.5³)

 =\frac{9}{2}π cm³ ≈ 14.14 cm³

What is the answer for 34-54x
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

2(17-27x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the question was incomplete this is the only answer I have for you.

If you were looking for the answer of X I would need a answer for the equation

Anyways... you want to factor out 2 from the expression since there are two numbers

Once you factored out the two (divide each number by 2) you'll get:

2(17-27x)
