Answer:

60 weeks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount per week * Number of weeks = Total Amount

5.25 * Weeks = 315

Hence, weeks = $315/5.25=60$

It will take Ernesto 60 weeks.

Answer:

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 59.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is the same, that is:

$H_0: \mu = 59.5$

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that it is different, that is:

$H_a: \mu \neq 59.5$

The test statistic is:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

In which X is the sample mean, $\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis, $\sigma$ is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

59.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that $\mu = 59.5$

After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 59.2. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.9.

This means that $n = 250, X = 59.2, \sigma = 1.9$

Value of the test statistic:

$z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$

$z = \frac{59.2 - 59.5}{\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{250}}}$

$z = -2.5$

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a mean that differs from 59.5 by at least 0.3, which is P(|Z|>-2.5), which is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of Z = -2.5.

Looking at the z-table, Z = -2.5 has a pvalue of 0.0062

2*0.0062 = 0.0124

The pvalue of the test is 0.0124 < 0.1, which means that there is sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level to support the testing firm's claim.

A rectangular box has a square base. The combined length of a side of the square base, and the height is 20 in. Let x be the len

aniked [119]

Answer:

a. V = (20-x) $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

b . 1185.185 $in^{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

The height: 20 - x (in )
Let x be the length of a side of the base of the box (x>0)

a. Write a polynomial function in factored form modeling the volume V of the box.

As we know that, this is a rectangular box has a square base so the Volume of it is:

V = h * $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

<=> V = (20-x) $x^{2}$ $in^{3}$

b. What is the maximum possible volume of the box?

To maximum the volume of it, we need to use first derivative of the volume.

<=> dV / Dx = -3 $x^{2}$ + 40x

Let dV / Dx = 0, we have:

-3 $x^{2}$ + 40x = 0

<=> x = 40/3

=>the height h = 20/3

So the maximum possible volume of the box is:

V = 20/3 * 40/3 *40/3

= 1185.185 $in^{3}$
