For each situation, state the null and alternative hypotheses: (Type "mu" for the symbol μ , e.g. mu > 1 for the mean is grea

ter than 1, mu < 1 for the mean is less than 1, mu not = 1 for the mean is not equal to 1. Please do not include units such as "mm" or "$" in your answer.)
a) The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 2.5 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.17 mm. If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 17 spindles to determine whether the mean diameter has moved away from the required measurement. Suppose the sample has an average diameter of 2.57 mm.

Answer:

Part (A) H_0:\mu=2.5 and H_a:\mu\neq2.5

Part (B) H_0:\mu=16.35 and H_a:\mu

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Null hypothesis refers the population parameter is equal to the claimed value.

If there is no statistical significance in the test then it is know as the null which is denoted by H_0, otherwise it is known as alternative hypothesis denoted by H_a.

Part (A): The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 2.5 millimeters (mm) if the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly.

Thus, the required null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0:\mu=2.5 and H_a:\mu\neq2.5

Part (B) The nationwide average price of a certain brand of laundry detergent is $16.35 and Harry thinks that prices in Caldwell are lower than the rest of the country.

Thus, the required null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0:\mu=16.35 and H_a:\mu

A number x is greater than 7 graph line
Anettt [7]

I graphed this line below.

Start with an open dot on 7.

The reason we use an open dot is because x

does not equal 7, it is only greater than 7.

So from your open dot, draw an arrow to the right

to represent all numbers greater than 7.

Finally, state your answer in set notation if possible.

It is read as {x: x > 7}.

What are the x and y-intercepts of the line described by the equation?<br> -6x + 3y = 18.9
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

x-intercept - x = 1/2y - 3.15

y-intercept - y = 2x + 6.3

Step-by-step explanation:

For x,

-6x + 3y = 18.9

-6x = -3y + 18.9

x = -3y/-6 + 18.9/-6

x = 1/2y - 3.15

For y,

-6x + 3y = 18.9

3y = 6x + 18.9

y = 6x/3 + 18.9/3

y = 2x + 6.3
