Answer:

318.2 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie has 100 ml of a 50% isopropyl alcohol solution.

She wants to prepare a solution of 85% by adding 96% solution of isopropyl alcohol solution.

Let the amount of 96% solution required = x ml

Final amount of 85% isopropyl alcohol solution = (100 + x) ml

Therefore, equation for this situation will be,

100 × (50%) + (x) × (96%) = (100 + x) × (85%)

100(0.5) + 0.96x = 0.85(100 + x)

50 + 0.96x = 85 + 0.85x

0.96x - 0.85x = 85 - 50

0.11x = 35

x = $\frac{35}{0.11}$

x = 318.18 ml

≈ 318.2 ml

Therefore, she will require 318.2 ml of 96% isopropyl alcohol solution.

Answer:

1) We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is higher than 5 gpm, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 5$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 5$

2) $df=n-1=8-1=7$

Since is a one sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}>2.233)=0.0304$

3) For this case is we use a significance level of 1% or 99% of confidencewe see that $p_v >\alpha$ and we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the specification is satified. But if we use a value of significance $\alpha=0.05$ or 95% of confidence we see that $p_v$ and we have enough evidence to conclude that the specification is satisfied.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=6.5$ represent the sample mean

$s=1.9$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=8$ sample size

$\mu_o =5$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

Part 1: State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is higher than 5 gpm, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 5$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 5$

If we analyze the size for the sample is <30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-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".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{6.5-5}{\frac{1.9}{\sqrt{8}}}=2.233$

Part 2: P-value

The first step is calculate the degrees of freedom, on this case:

$df=n-1=8-1=7$

Since is a one sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(t_{(7)}>2.233)=0.0304$

Part d: Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.01$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to fail reject the null hypothesis, so we can't conclude that the height of men actually its significant higher compared to the height of men in 1960 at 1% of signficance.

Part 3

For this case is we use a significance level of 1% or 99% of confidencewe see that $p_v >\alpha$ and we don't have enough evidence to conclude that the specification is satified. But if we use a value of significance $\alpha=0.05$ or 95% of confidence we see that $p_v$ and we have enough evidence to conclude that the specification is satisfied.

Need help please our math teacher didn’t have enough time to give us the notes to learn this so I am confused

Fudgin [204]

Answers with step-by-step explanation:

1. (7x + x) + 7x

= 7x + 7x + x

= 14x + x

= 15x

2. 5 * (4 * x)

= 5*4x

= 20x

3. 15y + (x + 9y)

= 15y + 9y + x

= 24y + x

4. (6x + 21) + 14

= 6x + 21 + 14

= 6x + 35

5. 3x + 2 + 11x

= 11x+ 3x + 2

= 14x + 2

6. (x + 13y) + 8y

= 13y + 8y + x

= 21y + x

7. (12y + 2x) + 4y

= 12y + 4y + 2x

= 16y + 2x

8. 8 (x4)

= 32x

9. 3 (5x)

= 15x

10. 3x + (7x + 10)

= 3x + 7x + 10

= 21x + 10

11. 5x + (2 + x)

= 6x + 2

12. 4 * x * 10

= 4 * 10 *x

= 40x

13. (x * 12) * 3

= 36x

14. 14x + 9y + 6x

= 20x + 9y

15. 5x + (24 + 14x)

= 19x + 24

If the life in years of a television set is normally distributed with a mean of 36 years and a standard deviation of 8 years wha

TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

The company should guarantee a lifetime of less than equal to 20.95 years so that less than 3% of the television sets fail while under warranty.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Mean, μ = 36 years

Standard Deviation, σ = 8 years

We are given that the distribution of life of television sets is a bell shaped distribution that is a normal distribution.

Formula:

$z_{score} = \displaystyle\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

We have to find the value of x such that the probability is 0.03.

$P( X < x) = P( z < \displaystyle\frac{x - 36}{8})=0.03$

Calculation the value from standard normal z table, we have,

$\displaystyle\frac{x - 36}{8} =-1.881\\\\x = 20.952\approx 20.95$

Thus, the company should guarantee a lifetime of less than or equal to 20.95 years so that less than 3% of the television sets fail while under warranty.
