Milk has a pH of 6.7, which is slightly acidic. Cheesemakers add culture to milk to lower the pH, making it more acidic and turn

ing it into cheese. A manufacturer is experimenting with a new culture that claims to produce a pH of 5.2, which is perfect for cheddar cheese. A set of 50 test batches resulted in an average pH of 5.11. A one-sample t-test was conducted to investigate whether there is evidence that the mean pH is different from 5.2. The test resulted in a p-value of 0.018. Which of the following is a correct interpretation of the p-value?
a. The probability that the true pH is equal to 5.2 is 0.018.
b. The probability that the true pH is different from 5.2 is 0.018.
c. The probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less is 0.018 if the true mean is 5.2.
d. The probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or more is 0.018 if the true mean is 5.2.
e. The probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less, or of 5.29 or more, is 0.018 if the true mean is 5.2.

Answer:

e. The probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less, or of 5.29 or more, is 0.018 if the true mean is 5.2.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a two-tailed one sample t-test.

The null hypothesis claims that the pH is not significantly different from 5.2.

The alternative hypothesis is that the mean pH is significantly different from 5.2.

The sample mean pH is 5.11, with a sample size of n=50.

The P-value of the test is 0.018.

This P-value corresponds to the probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less, given that the population is defined by the null hypothesis (mean=5.2).

As this test is two-tailed, it also includes the probability of the other tail. That is the probability of observing a sample with mean 5.29 or more (0.09 or more from the population mean).

Then, we can say that, if the true mean is 5.2, there is a probability P=0.018 of observing a sample of size n=50 with a sample mean with a difference bigger than 0.09 from the population mean of the null hypothesis (5.11 or less or 5.29 or more).

The right answer is e.

What is the difference between dash and hyphen
UNO [17]
Hyphens and Dashes. A hyphen joins two or more words together while a dash separates words into parenthetical statements. The two are sometimes confused because they look so similar, but their usage is different. Hyphens are not separated by spaces, while a dash has a space on either side.

Complete this table to show the sample space for each roll in the game
leva [86]

I'm assuming you only need help with part B. If that's the case, then all we do is add up the values outside of the table to get the inner cell results. For example, in row 1, column 1, we have 1's outside. They add to 1+1 = 2. So we'll have 2 in the first row and first column of the table. The other cells are computed in this way. In figure 1 (see attached image), I show the intermediate step of adding. Then in figure 2, I actually add up the values and show the final result of what the table will look like when all said and done. Take note of the color coding to help see how the values match up for each inner cell of the table. The color coding is optional.

Part C -- Part 1) Probability of rolling double sixes


There are five copies of "6" in the table (see figure 2 of the attached image) out of 36 total possibilities. How did I get 36? It's the result of multiplying 6*6. This is because there are 6 faces per die. As the table shows, there are 6 rows and 6 columns giving 36 cells total.


So we divide the number of times "6" shows up (5 times) out of the number of total possibilities (36 total) to get: 5/36 = 0.1389 = 13.89%


Answer as a fraction: 5/36

Answer as a decimal: 0.1389

Answer as a percent: 13.89%

The decimal and percent forms are approximate

---------------------------------------------


Part C -- Part 2) Probability of rolling doubles


To roll doubles, all we need to do is roll the same number twice on each die. In other words, we have "twin values" so to speak. Back in part 1 above, we dealt with just '6's showing up twice. There are other doubles as well


The doubles possibilities are: 

1 and 1

2 and 2

3 and 3

4 and 4

5 and 5

6 and 6


Each combo listed above only shows up once. So we have 6 instances where we have doubles (one instance per side of the die). This is out of 36 total


Divide the values mentioned: 6/36 = 1/6 = 0.1667 = 16.67%


Answer as a fraction: 1/6

Answer as a decimal: 0.1667

<span>Answer as a percent: 16.67%</span>
