The sodium content of a popular sports drink is listed as 200 mg in a 32-oz bottle. Analysis of 20 bottles indicates a sample me

an of 211.5 mg with a sample standard deviation of 18.5 mg.
(a)
State the hypotheses for a two-tailed test of the claimed sodium content.
H0: µ = 200 vs. H1: µ ≠ 200
H0: µ ≥ 200 vs. H1: µ < 200
H0: µ ≤ 200 vs. H1: µ > 200

(b)
Calculate the t test statistic to test the manufacturer’s claim.


(c)
At the 5 percent level of significance (α = 0.05) does the sample contradict the manufacturer’s claim?
__(reject or do not reject)____ H0. The sample _____(contradict or does not contradict)______ the manufacturer's claim.


(d-1)
Use Excel to find the p-value and compare it to the level of significance.
Did you come to the same conclusion as you did in part (c)?

Answer:

The sample does not contradicts the manufacturer's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = 200 mg

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 211.5 mg

Sample size, n = 20

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 18.5 mg

a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis  for a two tailed test

H_{0}: \mu = 200\\H_A: \mu \neq 200

We use Two-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Formula:

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} } Putting all the values, we have

t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{211.5 - 200}{\frac{18.5}{\sqrt{20}} } = 2.7799

c) Now,

t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 19 degree of freedom } = \pm 2.0930

Since, the calculated t-statistic does not lie in the range of the acceptance region(-2.0930,2.0930), we reject the null hypothesis.

Thus, the sample does not contradicts the manufacturer's claim.

d) P-value = 0.011934

Since the p-value is less than the significance level, we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis.

Yes, both approach the critical value and the p-value approach gave the same results.

If the following is a polynomial function, then state its degree and leading coefficient. If it is not, then state this fact. f(
Fed [463]

By definition, a polynomial is an expression with more than one term. That is a monomial. We have names for 2-termed polynomials (binomials) and 3-termed polynomials (trinomials), but that's where the naming stops and they all are called polynomials after that. Our degree is the same as the highest exponent. So our degree is a fifth degree. The leading coefficient is the number that starts out the whole polynomial AS LONG AS IT IS IN STANDARD FORM. If our polynomial started with the -4x^4, our leading coefficient would NOT be -4 since the highest degree'd term will always come first in standard form. Your choice for your answer is the first one given. Degree: 5 Leading Coefficient: -13.

Galina-37 [17]
Lets say that Maggie works 5 hours just the same as Braxton. if we use h(x)=f(x)+g(x) they would make about $100 combined. having to split that Braxton would make less then what he originally. since 9(5)+10= 55 and 6(5)+15=45. but if say Maggie works more then 5 hours then Braxton will be more money then just working alone.
