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.

Circle P has a radius of 14 feet. Circle Q has a diameter of 14 feet. What is the ratio of the circumference of P to the circumf
Salsk061 [2.6K]

Answer:

2:1

Step-by-step explanation:

Circle P has radius 14 feet.

The circumference of this circle is given by:

C=2 \pi \: r

We plug in the radius to get:

C=2\pi \:  \times 14 = 28\pi

Circle Q has diameter 14 feet.

The circumference of this circle is given by

C=\pi \: d

We substitute the diameter d=14 to get,

C=\pi \:  \times 14

C=14\pi

The ratio of the circumference of P to the circumference of Q is

28 \pi: 14\pi = 2:1

The graph of f(t) = 6 x 2^t shows the value of a rare coin in year t. What is the meaning of the y-intercept?
Flauer [41]
When the graph intersects the y-axis, it means it's x-coordinate is 0, or t = 0.
Hence, f(t) = 6 × 2^0 = 6.
y = 6 at y-intercept.
