A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 436.0 gram setting. It

is believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 40 bag sample had a mean of 429.0 grams. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled? Assume the standard deviation is known to be 23.0. What is the conclusion?

Answer:

We conclude that the machine is under filling the bags.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 436.0 gram

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 429.0 grams

Sample size, n = 40

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 23.0 grams

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 436.0\text{ grams}\\H_A: \mu < 436.0\text{ grams}

We use one-tailed(left) z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{429 - 436}{\frac{23}{\sqrt{40}} } = -1.92

Now, z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = -1.64

Since,  

z_{stat} < z_{critical}

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, we conclude that the machine is under filling the bags.

Answer: x = 21°

Step-by-step explanation:

37 + 4x + (3x - 4) = 180°   Original Equation

37 + 4x + 3x - 4 = 180°   Commutative Property of Addition

7x + 33 = 180°   Combine like terms

7x = 148°  Subtract 33 from both sides

x = 21°   Divide both sides by 7

a)  Unit rate  =  24 oz / 10lb   = 2.4 oz /  lb

This means that we  need 2.4 oz of seasoning for every pound of crawfish

 

b) For  30 lbs....we need    30 * 2.4 =  72 oz of seasoning

 

c)  With 36 oz of seasoning...we can cook      36 / 2.4  =  15 lbs of crawfish

Scrat [10]
Mike has 78 feet of fencing available for his garden, this is the perimeter (P) of the rectangle:
Perimeter: P=78 feet

The formula of Perimeter is:
P=2(W+L), where W is the width and L is the length, then:

P=78→2(W+L)=78
Dividing both sides of the equation by 2:
2(W+L)/2=78/2
W+L=39

If the shape is of a golden rectangle, we know:
L=1.6W
Replacing this above:
W+1.6W=39
Adding similar terms:
2.6W=39
Solving for W
2.6W/2.6=39/2.6
W=15 feet

L=1.6W=1.6(15)→L=24 feet

Answer: T<span>he dimensions of the garden are: Width=15 feet and Length=24 feet. </span>
