Batteries produced by a manufacturing company have had a life expectancy of 135 hours. Because of an improved production process

, the company believes that there has been an increase in the life expectancy of its batteries. A sample of 42 batteries showed an average life of 140 hours. From past information it is known the standard deviation of the population is 24 hours. Test to determine whether there has been an increase in the life expectancy of batteries. What is the test statistic and what conclusion can be made at the.10 level of significance? a. z =.208; Do not reject the null hypothesis b. z =.088; Do not reject the null hypothesis c. z = 1.35; Reject the null hypothesis d. z = 2.33; Reject the null hypothesis

Answer:  c. z = 1.35; Reject the null hypothesis

Step-by-step explanation:

Let \mu be the average life expectancy of its batteries.

As per given , we have

Null hypothesis : H_0 : \mu =135

Alternative hypothesis : H_a : \mu >135

Since H_a is right-tailed and population standard deviation is also known, so we perform right-tailed z-test.

Test statistic : \dfrac{\overlien{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

where, n= sample size

\overlien{x}= sample mean

\mu= Population mean

\sigma=population standard deviation

For n=42,\ \overline{x}=140\ \&\ \sigma=24, we have

z=\dfrac{140-135}{\dfrac{24}{\sqrt{42}}}=1.35015431217\approx1.35

Critical one-tailed test value for 0.10 significance level :

z_{0.1}=1.28

 Decision : Since critical z value (1.28) < test statistic (1.35), so we reject the null hypothesis .

[When critical value is less than the test statistic value , we reject the null hypothesis .]

C. 9 square roots of 2

To answer this question, it's super important that you understand the ratio of sides for special triangles. This triangle in particular, a 45-45-90 triangle, has a ratio between the legs and hypotenuse of 1:1:

Since we are given the value of the hypotenuse, we know that the value of the two sides multiplied by \sqrt{2} will be 18. Knowing this, we can write out an equation:

u*\sqrt{2} = 18

u = \frac{18}{\sqrt{2} }

<u>Multiply both sides by </u>\sqrt{2}<u> in order to get rid of the root in the denominator:</u>

u = \frac{18*\sqrt{2}}{\sqrt{2} * \sqrt{2}}

u = \frac{18*\sqrt{2} }{2}

u = 9\sqrt{2}

If you'd like me to explain how I got to the answer any further, just ask!

What is the value of z?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
Georgia [21]

Answer:

23

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the angles of a triangle always add up to 180°, you can set up an equation like this.

62+95+z=180

157+z=180

157-157+z=180-157

z=23

PLEASE HELP WILL MARK BRAINLIEST The frequency f​ (in waves per​ second) and the wavelength w​ (in meters) of a sound traveling
marshall27 [118]

You gave us the speed and the frequency, and you need the wavelength.

You were also nice enough to remind us that (fqy)x(lng) = speed.

So . . . F x W = 343 m/s

Divide each side by F :

W = (343 m/s) / F

W = (343 m/s) / (240 / s)

W = (343/240) m

<em>W = 1.429 meters</em>
