A particular brand of tires claims that its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced. From past

studies of this tire, the standard deviation is known to be 8,000. A survey of owners of that tire design is conducted. Of the 31 tires surveyed, the mean lifespan was 46,800 miles with a standard deviation of 9,800 miles. Using alpha Do the data support the claim at the 5% level?

<h2><u>Answer with explanation</u>:</h2>

Let \mu be the distance traveled by deluxe tire .

As per given , we have

Null hypothesis : H_0 : \mu \geq50000

Alternative hypothesis : H_a : \mu

Since H_a is left-tailed and population standard deviation is known, thus we should perform left-tailed z-test.

Test statistic : z=\dfrac{\overlien{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

where, n= sample size

\overline{x}= sample mean

\mu= Population mean

s=sample standard deviation

For n= 31,\ \sigma=8000,\ \overline{x}=46,800\ \&\ s=46,800, we have

z=\dfrac{46800-50000}{\dfrac{8000}{\sqrt{31}}}=-2.23

By using z-value table,

P-value for left tailed test : P(z≤-2.23)=1-P(z<2.23)   [∵P(Z≤-z)=1-P(Z≤z)]

=1-0.9871=0.0129

 Decision : Since p value (0.0129) < significance level  (0.05), so we reject the null hypothesis .

[We reject the null hypothesis when p-value is less than the significance level .]

Conclusion : We do not have enough evidence at 0.05 significance level to support the claim that t its deluxe tire averages at least 50,000 miles before it needs to be replaced.

Any value of x makes this equation true or all real numbers


-2(3x+12) is the same this as -6x-24 when distributed 
so it's -6x-24=-24-6x
her -6x just disappeared so she is wrong :)

Answer:

  y = 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

A proportional relation has the equation ...

  y = kx

To write the desired equation, you need to know the value of k. That can be found from the given information:

  for x = 2, y = 6

  6 = k·2

  3 = k . . . . divide by 2

Now, we know the equation can be written ...

  y = 3x

A video game has the following formula: For every 1,333 in attack power, you gain 3 levels. You get one bonus star per every 38
aleksley [76]

Answer:

Rounded to a whole number, the player has 12 bonus stars.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the video game establishes that for every 1,333 points of attack power 3 levels are gained, and that the player has a total of 0.21 million attack points, to determine the number of levels that player has it is necessary to perform the following calculation :

0.21 million = 210,000

210,000 / 1,333 x 3 = Levels

472.6 = Levels

Now, every 38 levels, the game awards a bonus star. To determine the amount of bonus stars that the player has, the following division must be made:

472.6 / 38 = X

12.43 = X

Thus, rounded to a whole number, the player has 12 bonus stars.

Which exponential function is represented by the
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

C, f(x) = 3(2)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the y-intercept is 3, the function will have 3 multiplying by some number to the power of x.

As x increases by 1, we notice that y multiplies by 2 every time.

This leads us to believe that the equation is 3 * 2^x
