Luda [366]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean weight of coffee in its containers is at least 32 ounces which means that the data support the claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a coffee packaging plant claims that the mean weight of coffee in its containers is at least 32 ounces.

A random sample of 15 containers were weighed and the mean weight was 31.8 ounces with a sample standard deviation of 0.48 ounces.

Let $\mu$ = mean weight of coffee in its containers.

SO, Null Hypothesis, $H_0$ : $\mu \geq$ 32 ounces {means that the mean weight of coffee in its containers is at least 32 ounces}

Alternate Hypothesis, $H_A$ : $\mu$ < 32 ounces {means that the mean weight of coffee in its containers is less than 32 ounces}

The test statistics that would be used here One-sample t-test statistics as we don't know about population standard deviation;

T.S. = $\frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$ ~ $t_n_-_1$

where, $\bar X$ = sample mean weight = 31.8 ounces

s = sample standard deviation = 0.48 ounces

n = sample of containers = 15

So, the test statistics = $\frac{31.8 -32}{\frac{0.48}{\sqrt{15} } }$ ~ $t_1_4$

= -1.614

The value of t test statistics is -1.614.

Now, at 0.01 significance level the t table gives critical value of -2.624 at 14 degree of freedom for left-tailed test.

Since our test statistic is more than the critical value of t as -1.614 > -2.624, so we have insufficient evidence to reject our null hypothesis as it will not fall in the rejection region due to which we fail to reject our null hypothesis.

Therefore, we conclude that the mean weight of coffee in its containers is at least 32 ounces which means that the data support the claim.

Help me plssss its for a math test and im braindead atm

Gwar [14]

Answer:

5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 + 1/4

To add these fractions, you need a lowest common denominator. Both 4 and 8 "go into" 8, so the lowest common denominator is 8.

In order to change the denominator 4 to 8, you need to multiply both the numerator and the denominator by 2. So, 1/4 becomes 2/8.

Now, the problem is 3/8 + 2/8.

You can add the numerators, because the denominator is the same for each fraction.

3/8 + 2/8 = 5/8

brooke found the equation of the line passing through the points (-7,25) and (-4,13) in slope-intercept form as follows

Goryan [66]

Answer:

The equation of the line passing through the points (-7,25) and (-4,13) in slope-intercept form is $\mathbf{y=-4x-3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of line passing through the points (-7,25) and (-4,13) in slope-intercept form.

The general equation of slope-intercept form is: $y=mx+b$

First we need to find slope

The formula used for finding slope is: $Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

We are given: $x_1=-7, y_1=25, x_2=-4, y_2=13$

Putting values in formula and finding slope

$Slope=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}\\Slope=\frac{13-25}{-4-(-7)}\\Slope=\frac{13-25}{-4+7}\\Slope=\frac{-12}{3}\\Slope=-4$

So, slope m= -4

Now finding y-intercept

Using slope m=-4 and point (-7,25) we can find y-intercept

$y=mx+b\\25=-4(-7)+b\\25=28+b\\b=25-28\\b=-3$

So, y-intercept b =-3

Now, the equation of required line having slope m=-4 and y-intercept b=-3 is:

$y=mx+b\\y=-4x-3$

So, the equation of the line passing through the points (-7,25) and (-4,13) in slope-intercept form is $\mathbf{y=-4x-3}$
