Income tax returns show that the mean income of self-employed persons in a particular year was £15,000, with a standard deviatio

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

Yes, There is significant difference.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null Hypothesis , H0 : Mean income = 15000

Alternate Hypothesis , H1 : Mean income ≠ 15000

t = (x - u) / ( s / √n)

x = sample mean = 14500 here, u = population mean = 15000 here , s = standard deviation = 975 here , n = sample size

t = (14500 - 15000) / (975 / √169)

-500 / 75 = - 6.66

As calculated t value in absolute terms is > 1.96 , ie tabulated value at 95% significance level (two sided). So we reject the null hypothesis in favor of alternate hypothesis. Hence, we state that 'Mean Income ≠ 15000'

It took a car 6 hours to cover the distance between points A and B with the speed of 50 mph. How long will it take a bus to cove

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

7hours and 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

given a car travels with a speed of 50 miles -------->1hour

x miles -------->6hours

on cross multiplying we get the value of 'x'

x = 50×6 = 300

x=300miles

Now ,

40mls------->1h

300mls------->xh

x= 300/40

x=(3/4)×10

x= 7.5hours

x= 7½hours

Solve for b.<br> 7<br> b<br> 12<br> b= ✓ [?]<br> Pythagorean Theorem: a2 + b2 = c2<br> Enter

fomenos

Answer: $b=\sqrt{95}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for b, we want to use the Pythagorean Theorem as given.

b and 7 are the legs, and 12 is the hypotenuse.

$7^2+b^2=12^2$ [exponent]

$49+b^2=144$ [subtract both sides by 49]

$b^2=95$ [square root both sides]

$b=\sqrt{95}$

Now we know $b=\sqrt{95}$ .
