Answer:
The F-statistic used to test the hypothesis that the miles per gallon for each fuel are the same is 4.07.
Step-by-step explanation:
There are four treatments in the data given, i.e. k = 4.
Total number of observations, n = 12.
Note: degrees of freedom is denoted as df.
For treatment, the degrees of freedom = k-1 = 4-1 =3 df.
The total degrees of freedom = n-1 = 12-1 = 11 df.
The error in degrees of freedom = df (total) - df(treatment)
The error in degrees of freedom = 11 - 3 = 8 df
At α = 0.05 level,from the F table, the F-statistic with (3 , 8)df is 4.07.
Therefore, the F-statistic used to test the hypothesis that the miles per gallon for each fuel are the same is 4.07.
Answer:
use logarithms
Step-by-step explanation:
Taking the logarithm of an expression with a variable in the exponent makes the exponent become a coefficient of the logarithm of the base.

You will note that this approach works well enough for ...
a^(x+3) = b^(x-6) . . . . . . . . . . . variables in the exponents
(x+3)log(a) = (x-6)log(b) . . . . . a linear equation after taking logs
but doesn't do anything to help you solve ...
x +3 = b^(x -6)
There is no algebraic way to solve equations that are a mix of polynomial and exponential functions.

Some functions have been defined to help in certain situations. For example, the "product log" function (or its inverse) can be used to solve a certain class of equations with variables in the exponent. However, these functions and their use are not normally studied in algebra courses.
In any event, I find a graphing calculator to be an extremely useful tool for solving exponential equations.
