GreenBeam Ltd. claims that its compact fluorescent bulbs average no more than 3.24 mg of mercury. A sample of 25 bulbs shows a m

ean of 3.29 mg of mercury.
(a) State the hypotheses for a right-tailed test, using GreenBeam’s claim as the null hypothesis about the mean.

Answer:

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 3.24  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 3.24  

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Previous concepts  and data given

A confidence interval is "a range of values that’s likely to include a population value with a certain degree of confidence. It is often expressed a % whereby a population means lies between an upper and lower interval".

The margin of error is the range of values below and above the sample statistic in a confidence interval.

Normal distribution, is a "probability distribution that is symmetric about the mean, showing that data near the mean are more frequent in occurrence than data far from the mean".

A right tailed test (sometimes called an upper test) is when the alternative hypothesis statement contains a greater than (>) symbol.

\bar X=3.29 represent the sample mean  

s represent the sample standard deviation

n represent the sample selected

\alpha significance level  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean for fluorescent bulbs is no more than 3.24 mg of mercury, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \leq 3.24  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu > 3.24  

IIf we know the population deviation we can apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:  

z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

A tennis ball machine serves a ball vertically into the air from a height of 2 feet, with an initial speed of 120 feet per secon
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The maximum height is reached after 3.75 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming the deceleration due to gravity is unaided by air resistance, gravity causes the ball to lose vertical speed at the rate of 32 ft/s every second. The initial vertical speed of 120 ft/s will decline to zero when t satisfies ...

... 120 ft/s - (32 ft/s²)t = 0

... (120 ft/s)/(32 ft/s²) = t = 3.75 s

The ball will not go any higher after its vertical speed is zero.
