company is developing a new​ high-performance wax for cross country ski racing. In order to justify the price marketing​ wants,

the wax needs to be very fast.​ Specifically, the mean time to finish their standard test course should be less than 55 seconds for a former Olympic champion. To test​ it, the champion will ski the course 8 times. The​ champion's times are 59.5​, 64.7​, 46.6​, 54.8​, 47.1​, 46.1​, 52.2​, and 41.6 seconds to complete the test course. Complete parts a and b below. ​a) Should they market the​ wax? Assume the assumptions and conditions for appropriate hypothesis testing are met for the sample. Assume alphaequals0.05. What are the null and alternative​ hypotheses? Choose the correct answer below. A. H0​: muless than55 vs. HA​: muequals55 B. H0​: muequals55 vs. HA​: mugreater than55 C. H0​: mugreater than55 vs. HA​: muequals55 D. H0​: muequals55 vs. HA​: muless than55'

Answer:

Correct option: (D) <em>H₀</em>: <em>μ</em> =  55 vs. <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>μ</em> < 55.

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case we need to test whether the new​ high-performance wax price is justifiable or not.

It is provided that the wax needs to be very fast specifically the mean time to finish their standard test course should be less than 55 seconds for a former Olympic champion, for the price to justifiable.

So, to test this a sample of <em>n</em> = 8 champion's times are recorded.

A one-sample <em>t</em>-test will be used to perform the test.

The hypothesis to test this is defined as follows:

<em>H₀</em>: The mean time to finish their standard test course is 55 seconds, i.e. <em>μ</em> =  55.

<em>Hₐ</em>: The mean time to finish their standard test course is less than 55 seconds, i.e. <em>μ</em> < 55.

Thus, the correct option is (D).

The perimeter of a stop sign is 96
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

x = 44

Step-by-step explanation:

4+4+2x+2x= 96

-(add like terms)

8+4x=96

-(subtract 8 from both sides)

4x=88

-(divide by 4 on both sides to get you x alone)

x=44

Okay, so your first one, number six. You have two shapes there, a cone and a circle. Now you have a full cone and a half of a circle. Let's start with the cone. The formula for the volume of a cone is πr²h/3. You have your height, that is 12, so get your paper out and plug that in. H = 12. Now, your radius is where it gets a bit tricky. Have you ever heard of the Pythagorean theorem? It's a²+b²=c². Look at the cone, but look at it like it's a two-dimensional shape. You see the triangle in the middle, ignore the rest and pretend it's only that triangle. You now have a right triangle, You know your height is 12, and by looking at the triangle adjacent to it, and know it's equal, you know that your hypotenuse (the longest side of your triangle) is 15. So plug that into the Pythagorean theorem. Now you have 12²+b²=15². Use algebra to work that out, and you're left with 9. So your radius is 9. Now plug that into your volume of a cone equation. The volume of the cone is about 1017.88. Now find the circle or sphere. The formula is 4/3πr³. Just plug in your radius and get your answer, which is 3053.63. Now cut that in half, as you've only got half a circle. Now you've got 1526.82. Now add that to the volume of your cone, and you've got your final answer. 2544.7, or about that. I used π on a calc, and not 3.14, so it might be a little different.

Do you think you can do the next one? Just look at your triangle in there. You've already got one side and a hypotenuse, so plug it into the Pythagorean theorem and get your last side. Then look at the little marks on there and you can see if places are the same. If you need help with it don't hesitate to ask. I'm staying up all night anyway. Homeschooled and behind, so I'm not going anywhere.
