Answer: 97.25 milligrams

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Curt just drank a cup of coffee to help him stay awake.

The initial amour of caffeine in coffee= 130 milligrams

The rate of decay of caffeine in body = 7%= 0.07

We know that the exponential decay equation with rate r and and time t is given by :-

f(x)=A(1-r)^t, where A is the initial value.

Now, the amount of caffeine left in body after 4 hours is given by :-

f(4)=130(1-0.07)^4\\\\\Rightarrow\ f(4)=97.2467613\approx97.25\text{ milligrams}

Hence, after 4 hours 97.25 milligrams will be left.

After 4 hours, his body will have processed 28% because 7*4 = 28. But, you're trying to find what's left (so, subtract that % from 100)

100%-28% = 72%

Then multiply the percent left by the total number of milligrams of caffeine

130*.72 = 93.6 mg

Wilda can do a job in 4 hours that karla needs 5 hours to do. If wilda works 1 hour before karla joins her, how long will it tak
mezya [45]
Wilda can do the job in 4 hours ... she does 1/4 (or 0.25) of it each hour.
Karla can do it in 5 hours ... she does 1/5 (or 0.2) of it each hour.

Wilda worked alone for 1 hour ... 0.25 of the job was done before her helper
arrived.  So only 0.75 of the job remained to be done together.

Working together, they accomplish (0.25 + 0.2) = 0.45 of the job in 1 hour.

How many times do they need to do  0.45  of the job in order to finish
the  0.75  of it that remains ?  That's the number of hours it will take them,
working together.

0.75 / 0.45  =  <em>1 and 2/3</em>

After Wilda worked alone for 1 hour and Karla came along to join her, it will
take them another  <em>1 hour and 40 minutes</em> to finish the job and go for a swim.

A study is performed in San Antonio to determine whether the average weekly grocery bill per five-person family in the town is s
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

No, the sample evidence is not statistically significant (P-value = 0.125).

To reject the null hypothesis, the P-value has to be smaller than the significance level, so the significance level to reject the null hypothesis has to be 0.125 or higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the average weekly grocery bill per five-person family in San Antonio is significantly different from the national average.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=131\\\\H_a:\mu\neq 131

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=50.

The sample mean is M=133.474.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=11.193.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{11.193}{\sqrt{50}}=1.583

Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{133.474-131}{1.583}=\dfrac{2.474}{1.583}=1.563

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=50-1=49

This test is a two-tailed test, with 49 degrees of freedom and t=1.563, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

P-value=2\cdot P(t>1.563)=0.125

As the P-value (0.125) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the average weekly grocery bill per five-person family in San Antonio is significantly different from the national average.
