A study of pollutants showed that certain industrial emissions should not exceed 2.3 parts per million. You believe a particular

company may be exceeding this average. To test this supposition, you randomly take a sample of nine air tests. The sample average is 3.3 parts per million, with a sample standard deviation of 0.4. Does this result provide enough evidence for you to conclude that the company is exceeding the safe limit? Use α = 0.05. Assume emissions are normally distributed.

Answer:

t=\frac{3.3-2.3}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{9}}}=7.5    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=9-1=8  

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{(8)}>7.5)=0.0000346  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 2.3 ppm the safe limit

Step-by-step explanation:

Information provided

\bar X=3.3 represent the sample mean in ppm

s=0.4 represent the sample standard deviation

n=9 sample size  

\mu_o =2.3 represent the value to verify

\alpha=0.05 represent the significance level

t would represent the statistic  

p_v represent the p value

System of hypothesis

We want to verify if the true mean is higher than 2,3 ppm, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 2.3  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 2.3  

The statistic for this case is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

t=\frac{3.3-2.3}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{9}}}=7.5    

The degrees of freedom are given by:

df=n-1=9-1=8  

And the p value would be:

p_v =P(t_{(8)}>7.5)=0.0000346  

Since the p value is lower than the significance level we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly higher than 2.3 ppm the safe limit

A film ends at 1.05 a.m and lasts for 1 hour 45 min. At what time does the film start?
Ad libitum [116K]

u will have to add the two

1hr 45mins + 1:05

remember add hrs to hrs and minutes to minutes

1+1 =2

45+5=50

which means the movie started at 2:50 am

and to verify ur answer subtract 2:50 from 1:05

= 1hrs 45 mins

<em>Answer</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>2</em><em>:</em><em>5</em><em>0</em><em> </em><em>am</em><em> </em>

The lines are parallel. Find the slope-intercept form of the equation y₂.
Bas_tet [7]
Since the lines are parallel and you know the slope of y_{1} is -2, you know the slope of line y_{2} will also be -2. You can see on the coordinate grid that line y_{2} crosses the y-axis at -1. When you piece all of these facts together into slope-intercept form you get y_{2} = -2x - 1.
