s 5. Conduct the following test of hypothesis using the 0.05 significance level. H0 : μ ≤ 29 H1 : μ > 29
a. Is this a one- or two-tailed test? "Two-tailed"-the alternate hypothesis is different from direction. "One-tailed"-the alternate hypothesis is greater than direction.

b. What is the decision rule? (Round your answer to 3 decimal places.) H0, when z > 1.645

c. What is the value of the test statistic? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Value of the test statistic 1.37

d. What is your decision regarding H0? Do not reject Reject There is evidence to conclude that the population mean is greater than 29.

e. What is the p-value? (Round your answer to 4 decimal places.) p-value.

Answer:

We accept the null hypothesis and reject  the alternate hypothesis. There is no evidence to conclude that the population mean is greater than 29. The population mean is less than or equal to 29.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 29

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 30

Sample size, n = 47

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 5

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu \leq 29\\H_A: \mu > 29

a) This is a one-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is in greater than direction.

We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

b) z_{stat} > z_{critical} , we reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis and if z_{stat} < z_{critical} , we accept the null hypothesis and reject  the alternate hypothesis.

c) Formula:

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

Putting all the values, we have

z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{30 - 29}{\frac{5}{\sqrt{47}} } = 1.37

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

Since,  

z_{stat} < z_{critical}

We accept the null hypothesis and reject  the alternate hypothesis. There is no evidence to conclude that the population mean is greater than 29. The population mean is less than or equal to 29.

e) P-value is 0.0853

On the basis of p value we again accept the null hypothesis.

Jack wants to share his candy with friends. Right now he has 4 1/3 pieces of chocolate. How many friends can he give 1/2 a candy
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

8 Friends

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert 4 1/3 to a mixed fraction

4 1/3 --> 13/3

Then divide by 1/2 to find how many friends per 1/2 candy bar with 13/3 candy bars

(13/3)/(1/2)

=(13*2)/(3*1)

=26/3

8.66667

Since you can't have 0.66667 of a person you get 8 friends to give candy to

Can someone explain how to get the answer if do 5 stars and have good rating
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

3:1

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the number of students who prefer cheese AND vegetable pizza is 16 cheese + 2 vegetable = 18 combined

We also know that the number of students who prefer sausage AND pepperoni pizza is 3 sausage + 3 pepperoni = 6 combined

If we take the ratio between these figures, this ratio would be 18:6 (read as 18 to 6) which simplifies to 3:1 (read as 3 to 1).

Tomas and Tasha were hiking at a speed of 3.5 mph. On their way back, they were tired and their speed was 2 mph. How long was th
Anna35 [415]

 To get the length of the route use the expression for speed,

Distance = Speed × Time

Length of the route is 7 miles.

It's given in the question,

 Speed of Tomas and Tasha initially = 3.5 mph

Therefore, distance travelled by both with the speed of 2 mph one way will be,

 Distance = 3.5t [Here, t = time ]

Speed of both while coming back = 2 mph

And the time taken = t + (1 hour 30 minutes)

                                 = (t + 1.5) hours

Therefore, distance travelled while coming back = Speed × Time

                                                                                  = 2(t + 1.5)

Since, length of the route is same both ways,

3.5t = 2(t + 1.5)

3.5t = 2t + 3

3.5t - 2t = 3

1.5t = 3

t = 2 hours

Now substitute the value of t in the expression to get the distance of the route,

Distance = 3.5t

               = 3.5 × 2

               = 7 miles

 Therefore, route was 7 miles long.
