"D" size batteries produced by MNM Corporation have had a life expectancy of 87 hours. Because of an improved production process

, it is believed that there has been an increase in the life expectancy of its "D" size batteries. A sample of 80 batteries showed an average life of 88.5 hours. Assume from past information that it is known that the standard deviation of the population is 9 hours. Conduct a hypothesis test to determine whether there is statistically significant evidence to support that the life expectancy of batteries have improved. What is the p-value associated with the sample results?

Answer:

As p-value = 0.0.68 > 0.05   the null hypothesis could not be rejected

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the p-value is shown below:

Given that

Average life = \bar x = 88.5

Standard deviation = \sigma = 9

Sample = n = 80

Based on the above information

Null and alternative hypothesis is

H_o : u = 87\\\\H_a : u > 87

Now for the level of significance \alpha = 0.05 and the critical value for a right talied test is z_c = 1.64

Now the test statistic is

z = \frac{\bar x  - u_o}{\sigma/\sqrt{n} }\\\\= \frac{88.5-87}{9/\sqrt{80} }

= 1.491

Now it is observed that

Z = 1.49≤z_ c = 1.64

So by this the null hypothesis could not be rejected

So,

P -value = 1 - P(z<1.491)

P-value = 0.068

As p-value = 0.0.68 > 0.05   the null hypothesis could not be rejected

okay so ive got a ton of piecewise function things and I really suck at them so maybe someone wants to help me? :D thanks giving

[] signs mean that the number is included in the domain and () mean that the number is not included. Now,

1. [-1,5)
Because x is greater than or equal to -1 (included) but less than 5 (excluded

2. [-5,13)
When we plug in x = -1, we get the minimum value of -5, which is included because its x-value was included. The, we plug in x = 5 to find the range's maximum and this is excluded because its x-value was excluded.

3. 218
x = 6 lies in the domain of the first function so we will use it to evaluate the value of x = 6. We do this by simply substituting x into the function.

4. 12
x = 9 is included in the domain of the second function and the value of the second function at all  points is 12.

5. 103
x = 10 is included in the domain of the second function so we will use it to evaluate the value of x = 10. This is done by substituting x into the equation.

Answer:

1) 5 2) 6 3) 1.25 or -1.75

Step-by-step explanation:

1. x^2 - 25 = 0

x^2 - 25 = 0

First, add 25 to both sides!

x^2 = 25

Now square root both sides.

x = 5

2.  (x-2)^2 = 16

First, square root both sides.

(x-2) = 4

Add 2 on both sides.

(x) = 6

x = 6

3. Quadratic Formula = -b ± \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } / 2a

Substitute in:

-6 ±\sqrt{7^{2} -4(2)(6)} / 2(2)

-6±\sqrt{49 - 48} / 4

Both forms:

-6 + \sqrt{1} / 4

5 / 4 = 1.25

Negative:

-6 - 1 / 4

-7 / 4 = -1.75
