The correct interpretation of the p-value is given by:
B If the average battery life really is 5 hours, then a sample of 10 observations having a sample mean of 4.25 hours or lower would only occur about 3.8% of the line.
<h3>How to find the p-value of a test?</h3>
It depends on the test statistic z, as follows:
- For a left-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the left of z, which is the p-value of z.
- For a right-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the right of z, which is 1 subtracted by the p-value of z.
- For a two-tailed test, it is the area under the normal curve to the left of -z combined with the area to the right of z, hence it is 2 multiplied by 1 subtracted by the p-value of z, which means that the p-value for a two-tailed test is twice the p-value of a one-tailed test.
In this problem, a left-tailed test is used, as we are testing if the mean is less than 5 hours.
The sample mean from the 10 times was of 4.25, and the p-value is of 0.038, which means that the area to the left of Z under the normal curve is of 0.038, that is, a sample mean of 4.25 hours or lower would only occur about 3.8% of the line, hence option B is correct.

The answer is A, as I calculated the difference using Pythagora's Theorem. Which I then did 7.6-6.3= 1.29122, which rounds to 1.0 cm^2
Answer:
y<1
Step-by-step explanation:
-8y+3>-5
-8y>-8
y<1
First, we have to find the length of each side of triangle. Equilateral triangle means 3 sides r in same length, so each side will be 21 ÷ 3 = 7
Now we need to calculate the height of the triangle. We can do this by Pythagoras theorem
Let the height be h
(7/2)^2 + x^2 = 7^2
The area should be 6.0621778265
Or u can say 6.06 corrected to 3 sig fig
Let's solve this system of equations through substitution.
We have these two equations.
-7x-2y=14
6x+6y=18
Now let divide the second equation by 6.
6x+6y=18 ----> x+y=3
Next, let us move y to the right side of the equation.
x+y=3 -------> x=3-y (x equals 3-y)
Because we found out that what x is in terms of y, we can input that in for every instance of x in this equation below.
-7x-2y=14 becomes -7(3-y)-2y=14 (Why? Because x equals 3-y!)
We have a one variable equation now and can solve for y.
-7(3-y)-2y=14
-21+7y-2y=14
5y=35
y=7
Plug in 7 for y in any equation to find x.
x+y=3
x+7=3
x=-4
answer: x=-4, y=7
