Answer:

The claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average is wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Sample size = 64

           Standard deviation = 112

           Mean = 505

           Average score = 477

To Find : Test the claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average at the 0.05 level of significance.

Solution:

Sample size = 64

n > 30

So we will use z test

H_0:\mu \geq 477\\H_a:\mu < 477

Formula : z=\frac{x-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

z=\frac{505-477}{\frac{112}{\sqrt{64}}}

z=2

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.9772

α=0.05

p value > α

So, we accept the null hypothesis

Hence The claim that the scores of UT students are less than the US average is wrong

Which expression is equivalent to 73 ⋅ 7−5? 72 77 1 over 7 to the 2nd power 1 over 7 to the 7th power
Rasek [7]

Answer:

  1/7^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The applicable rules of exponents are ...

  (a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)

  a^-b = 1/a^b

__

Then your expression simplifies to ...

  7^3\cdot 7^{-5}=7^{3-5}=7^{-2}=\boxed{\dfrac{1}{7^2}}

Using only whole numbers, how can you draw three rectangles with perimeter of 12 units
Assoli18 [71]
Perimeter means the sides add up to 12. 
Rectangles have two pairs of equal sides. 

2(one side) + 2(another side) = 12
2 (one side + another side) = 12 
(one side + another side) = 6 

To draw a rectangle with a perimeter of 12 units, the two adjacent sides must add up to 6. 
1 + 5
2 + 4 
3 + 3

A rectangle sand box has a length of 5 and 1/3 feet and a width of 3 and 3/4 feet. What is the perimeter?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

Perimeter of rectangle = ⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of a rectangular sand box = 5\frac{1}{3}\ feet

Width of the box = 3\frac{3}{4}\ feet

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(l+w)

where l represents length of rectangle and w represents width of the rectangle.

Substituting values given for length and width.

Perimeter of sand box = 2(5\frac{1}{3}+3\frac{3}{4})\ feet

Simplifying by adding fractions:

⇒  2(5+3+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4})\ feet (Adding whole numbers and fractions separately)

⇒  2(8+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4}) feet

Whole number 8 can be written as \frac{8}{1}

⇒  2(\frac{8}{1}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{3}{4}) feet

To add fractions we take LCD for the denominators 3,4,1.

LCD for 3 and 4 = 12 as its the least common multiple of 3,4,1.

Making denominators =12 by multiplying numerator an denominator with the corresponding numbers

⇒  2(\frac{8\times 12}{1\times 12}+\frac{1\times 4}{3\times 4}+\frac{3\times 3}{4\times 3}) feet

⇒  2(\frac{96}{12}+\frac{4}{12}+\frac{9}{12}) feet

Then we simply add numerators.

⇒  2(\frac{96+4+9}{12}) feet

⇒  2(\frac{109}{12}) feet

⇒  2\times \frac{109}{12} feet

⇒  \frac{218}{12} feet

Writing fraction as a mixed number by dividing 218 by 12 and writing quotient as whole number and remainder as numerator with divisor as denominator.

⇒ 18\frac{2}{12} feet

Simplifying fractions to simplest form.

⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet

Perimeter =⇒ 18\frac{1}{6} feet  (Answer)
