The commercial for the new Meat Man Barbecue claims that it takes 10 minutes for assembly. A consumer advocate thinks that the c

laim is false. The advocate surveyed 50 randomly selected people who purchased the Meat Man Barbecue and found that their average time was 11.2 minutes. The standard deviation for this survey group was 3.1 minutes. What can be concluded at the 0.05 level of significance?H0: mu.gif= 10Ha: mu.gif [ Select ] [">", "<", "Not Equal to"] 10Test statistic: [ Select ] ["Chi-square", "F", "Z", "t"] p-Value = [ Select ] ["0.105", "0.009", "0.091", "0.025"] .

Answer:

There is enough evidence to make the conclusion that the population mean amount of time to assemble the Meat Man barbecue is not equal to 10 minutes (P-value=0.009).

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to perform an hypothesis test on the mean.

The null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=10\\\\H_1: \mu \neq 10

The significance level is \alpha=0.05.

The test statistic t can be calculated as:

t=\frac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{N} } =\frac{11.2-10}{3.1/\sqrt{50} }=2.737

The degrees of freedom are:

df=N-1=50-1=49

The P-value (two-tailed test) for t=2.737 and df=49 is P=0.00862.

This P-value (0.009) is smaller than the significance level, so the effect is significant. The null hypothesis is rejected.

There is enough evidence to make the conclusion that the population mean amount of time to assemble the Meat Man barbecue is not equal to 10 minutes.

Ignore my writing <br> Solve the inequality
Reil [10]

Answer:

x=1

Step-by-step explanation:

-5 - (15x-1) = 2(7x-16) -x

Distribute the negative sign

-5-15x+1 = 2(7x-16)-x

Distribute the 2

-5-15x+1 = 14x -32-x

Combine like terms

-4-15x = 13x-32

Add 15x to each side

-4-15x+15x = 13x+15x-32

-4 = 28x-32

Add 32 to each side

-4+32 = 28x-32+32

28 = 28x

Divide each side by 28

28/28 = 28x/28

1 =x

Choose whether it's always, sometimes, never 
Keith_Richards [23]

Answer: An integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true. A polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true. A polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true. A polynomial multiplied by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

Explanation:

1)

The closure property of integer states that the addition, subtraction and multiplication is integers is always an integer.

If a\in Z\text{ and }b\in Z, then a+b\in Z.

Therefore, an integer added to an integer is an integer, this statement is always true.

2)

A polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we subtract the two polynomial then the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.

3)

If a polynomial divided by a polynomial  then it may or may not be a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is higher than the degree of denominator polynomial then it may be a polynomial.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{f(x)}{g(x)}=x^2+5, which a polynomial.

If the degree of numerator polynomial is less than the degree of denominator polynomial then it is a rational function.

For example:

f(x)=x^2-2x+5x-10 \text{ and } g(x)=x-2

Then \frac{g(x)}{f(x)}=\frac{1}{x^2+5}, which a not a polynomial.

Therefore, a polynomial divided by a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is sometimes true.

4)

As we know a polynomial is in the form of,

p(x)=a_nx^n+a_{n-1}x^{x-1}+...+a_1x+a_0

Where a_n,a_{n-1},...,a_1,a_0 are constant coefficient.

When we multiply the two polynomial, the degree of the resultand function is addition of degree of both polyminals and the resultant is also a polynomial form.

Therefore, a polynomial subtracted from a polynomial is a polynomial, this statement is always true.
