How many tissues should the kimberly clark corporation package of kleenex contain? researchers determined that 60 tissues is the

mean number of tissues used during a cold. suppose a random sample of 100 kleenex users yielded a mean of 52 tissues used during a cold with a standard deviation of 22. suppose the alternative you wanted to test was h1: µ < 60. if the critical value in this situation at an α = .05 is -1.6604, when should we reject the null?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

For the null hypothesis,

µ = 60

For the alternative hypothesis,

h1: µ < 60

This is a left tailed test

Since the population standard deviation is not given, the distribution is a student's t.

Since n = 100,

Degrees of freedom, df = n - 1 = 100 - 1 = 99

t = (x - µ)/(s/√n)

Where

x = sample mean = 52

µ = population mean = 60

s = samples standard deviation = 22

t = (52 - 60)/(22/√100) = - 3.64

We would determine the p value using the t test calculator. It becomes

p = 0.00023

We would reject the null hypothesis if α = 0.05 > 0.00023

The base of an aquarium with given volume V is made of slate and the sides are made of glass. If the slate costs seven times as

lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the volume of the box with V and the dimensions with l, b and h.

The volume (V) is:

$V = l * b * h$

Make h the subject of the formula

$h = \frac{V}{lb}$

The surface area (S) of the aquarium is:

$S = lb + 2(lh + bh)$

Where lb represents the area of the base (i.e. slate):

The cost (C) of the surface area is:

$C = 7 * lb + 1 * 2(lh + bh)$

$C = 7lb + 2(lh + bh)$

$C = 7lb + 2h(l + b)$

Substitute $\frac{V}{lb}$ for h in the above equation

$C = 7lb + 2*\frac{V}{lb}(l + b)$

$C = 7lb + \frac{2V}{lb}(l + b)$

$C = 7lb + \frac{2V}{b} + \frac{2V}{l}$

Differentiate with respect to l and with respect to b

$C_l=7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}$ $=0$

$C_b=7l - \frac{2V}{b^2}$ $=0$

To solve for b and l, we equate both equations and set l to b (to minimize the cost)

$7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}=7l - \frac{2V}{b^2}$

$7l - \frac{2V}{l^2}=7b - \frac{2V}{b^2}$

By comparison:

$l =b$

$C_l=7b - \frac{2V}{l^2}$ $=0$ becomes

$7l - \frac{2V}{l^2}=0$

$7l = \frac{2V}{l^2}$

Cross Multiply

$7l^3 = 2V$

Solve for l

$l^3 = \frac{2V}{7}$

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$

Recall that: $l =b$

$b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$

Also recall that:

$h = \frac{V}{lb}$

$h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}*\sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}}$

$h = \frac{V}{\sqrt[3]{\frac{4V^2}{49}}}$

Apply law of indices

$h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V^3}{4V^2}}$

$h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

The dimension that minimizes the cost of material of the aquarium is:

$l = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $b = \sqrt[3]{\frac{2V}{7}}$ $h = \sqrt[3]{\frac{49V}{4}}$

Martin puts two bowls of fruit out for his friends.The bowl of grapes has 9 green grapes and 16 red grapes. The bowl of tangerin

Anarel [89]

Answer:

27/250

Step-by-step explanation:

P(a green grape and a seedless tangerine)

=P(green grape) x P(seedless tangerine)

The bowl of grapes has 9 green grapes and 16 red grapes.

P(green grape)=green grapes / total grapes

=9/(9+16)

=9/25

The bowl of tangerines has 7 seeded and 3 seedless tangerines.

P(seedless tangerine)=seedless / total

=3/(3+7)

=3/10

P(a green grape and a seedless tangerine)

=9/25 x 3/10

=27/250
