Fluoxetine, a generic anti-depressant, claims to have, on average, at least 20 milligrams of active ingredient. An independent l

ab tests a random sample of 80 tablets and finds the mean content of active ingredient in this sample is 18.7 milligrams with a standard deviation of 5 milligrams. If the lab doesn't believe the manufacturer's claim, what is the approximate p-value for the suitable test

Answer:

t=\frac{18.7-20}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{80}}}=-2.326    

df=n-1=80-1=79  

p_v =P(t_{(79)}  

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

\bar X=18.7 represent the sample mean for the content of active ingredient

s=5 represent the sample standard deviation for the sample  

n=80 sample size  

\mu_o =20 represent the value that we want to test

t would represent the statistic

p_v represent the p value for the test

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean for the active agent is at least 20 mg, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 20  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 20  

The statistic would be:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

Now we can calculate the statistic:

t=\frac{18.7-20}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{80}}}=-2.326    

P value

The degrees of freedom are calculated like this:

df=n-1=80-1=79  

Since is a one left tailed test the p value would be:  

p_v =P(t_{(79)}

Whats the formula for the surface area of a triangle?
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

use the formula A = 1/2bh, where A = area, b = base, and h = height. Once you have the areas of all sides and faces, you simply add them together to get the surface area.

Hope this helps!

Find the volume of a cone with radius 28 and height 44.
Brut [27]
The volume formula for a cone is V = 1/3 pi r^2 h.  We have everything we need to find the volume. V = 1/3 pi 28^2* 44.  Doing that math and leaving it in terms of pi you have that the volume is 11,498.67 pi units cubed.  If you multiply pi in, the answer would be 36,123.06 units cubed.
