A publishing company claims that in fall 2019, the average price of college textbooks for a single semester is $385. Suppose you

decide to collect data from a random sample of students to assess whether the publisher's claim is reasonable, and you find that in a random sample of 22 college students, the mean price of textbooks for the fall 2019 semester was $433.50 with a standard deviation of $86.92. At the 0.01 significance level, is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean price of college textbooks for a single semester is different from the value claimed by the publisher?

Answer:

We accept H₀ . We don´t have enough evidence to express the publisher claim is not true

Step by Step explanation:

We must evaluate if the mean of the price of college textbooks is different from the value claimed by the publisher

n < 30 then we must use t - distrbution

degree of freedom   n  - 1     df = 22 - 1     df = 21

As the question mentions " different " that means,  a two-tail test

At 0,01 significance level     α  = 0,01       α/2  =  0,005

and t(c)  = 2,831

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis                      H₀          μ  =  μ₀

Alternative hypothesis           Hₐ          μ  ≠  μ₀

To calculate t(s)

t(s)  =  (  μ  -  μ₀ ) /σ/√n

t(s)  =  (  433,50 - 385 ) / 86,92 / √22

t(s)  =  2,6171

Comparing   t(c)   and t(s)

t(s) < t(c)

Then  t(s) is in the acceptance region we accept H₀. We don´t have enough evidence to claim that mean price differs from publisher claim

So volue of a cone=1/3 times (area of base[which is a circle]) times height

area of base=area of circle=pi time radius^2
area=pi times 5^2
area=pi times 25=25pi

1/3 times 25pi times 18
25pi times 18 times 1/3
25pi times 18/3
25pi times 6=150pi


the answer is 150π in^3 or 150π cubic inches or C

( to solve, aprox pi to 3.141592 an multiply 150 by 3.141592=471.239 in^3)
