A battery manufacturer advertises that the mean reserve capacity of a certain battery is 1500 hours. You suspect that the batter

ies’ reserve time is less than the advertised value. To test this claim, you randomly select a sample of 20 batteries and find the mean reserve capacity to be 1320 hours. Assume that the population standard deviation is 320 hours. Do you have enough evidence to support the manufacturer’s claim? What assumption is necessary for this test to be valid? None. The Central Limit Theorem makes any assumptions unnecessary. The population of all the batteries’ reserve time is normally distributed because of the small sample size. The population variance must equal the population mean.

Answer:

The test statistic t =  2.45 > 1.729

we rejected null hypothesis so the population mean is not equal population variance

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean reserve capacity of a certain battery is(μ) 1500 hours

Given sample of  n = 20 batteries

The sample mean reserve capacity to be (x)=1320 hours.

Assume that the population standard deviation is(σ) = 320 hours

Null hypothesis:H0 = μ = 1500 hours

Alternative hypothesis:H1 = μ ≠ 1500 hours

The test statistic

t = \frac{x-u}{\frac{σ}{\sqrt{n} } }

now simplification, we get

t = \frac{1320-1500}{\frac{320}{\sqrt{20-1} } }

t = modulus(-2.45) = 2.45

Degrees of freedom γ = n-1 = 20-1 =19

By tabulated value in t- distribution at 5% level of significance

tabulated value = 1.729 ( from table)

The calculated value > tabulated value

we rejected null hypothesis .

we rejected null hypothesis so the population mean is not equal population variance

What is the value of sin-1(1)? negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction 0 startfraction pi over 2 endfraction π
mariarad [96]

The value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

<h3>What is the value of sin (π/2)?</h3>

The value of sin (π/2) is equal to the number 1. The value of the sin-1(1) has to be find out.

Suppose the value of this function is <em>x</em>. Thus,

x=\sin^{-1}(1)

Solve it further,

\sin(x)=(1)              ......1

The value of sin (π/2) and -sin (-π/2) is equal to 1 such that,

\sin\dfrac{\pi}{2}=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=1

Put this value in the equation 1,

\sin(x)=\sin\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)=-\sin\left(-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)

Thus, the range will be,

\left(\dfrac{\pi}{2},-\dfrac{\pi}{2}\right)

Thus, the value of sin-1(1) is negative startfraction pi over 2 endfraction, startfraction -pi over 2 endfraction.

In 2003 there were 1078 JC Penney stores and in 2007 there were 1067 stores.
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

a) f(s)=\frac{-11}{3}s+\frac{3245}{3} f(1)=1078 stores b) 2012, 1049 stores. 2014, 1041 stores. c) Yes it is a downsizing company.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

s=year | f(s) = number of stores per year

1 | 1078

4| 1067

m=\frac{1067-1078}{4-1}\Rightarrow m=\frac{-11}{3}\\1078=-\frac{11}{3}*1+b\Rightarrow b=\frac{3245}{3}\\f(s)=\frac{-11}{3}s+\frac{3245}{3}

s=1 in 2003

s=1 year =2003\\ Testing\\f(1)=\frac{-11}{3}(1)+\frac{3245}{3}=\frac{3234}{3}=1078\\ f(1)=1078

b) For 2012, s=9. For 2014, s=11

\\f(s)=\frac{-11}{3}s+\frac{3245}{3}\\ \\f(9)=\frac{-11}{3}(9)+\frac{3245}{3}\cong1049\\\\f(11)=\frac{-11}{3}(11)+\frac{3245}{3}\cong=1041

c) In deed. Since the function shows a decreasing amount of JC Penney stores. Maybe this is a downsizing from this company, progressively closing some stores.

Determine the required value of the missing probability to make the distribution a discrete probability distribution. x ​p(x) 3
Alisiya [41]

To get the required value of the missing probability to make the series complete is to deduct all the probability given to 1 because we know that the discrete probability distribution must be equal to 1. So doing what I have said, this will be:

P(4) = 1 - P(3) - P(5) - P(6)

= 1 – 0.3 – 0.18 – 0.21

<span>= 0.31 is the answer.</span>
