company with a large fleet of cars hopes to keep gasoline costs down and sets a goal of attaining a fleet average of at least 26

miles per gallon. To see if the goal is being met, they check the gasoline usage for 50 company trips chosen at random, finding a mean of 25.02 mpg and a standard deviation of 4.83 mpg. Is this strong evidence that they have failed to attain their fuel economy goal

Answer:

t=\frac{25.02-26}{\frac{4.83}{\sqrt{50}}}=-1.435    

p_v =P(t_{(49)}  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 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 lower than 26 so then the specification is satisfied.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation  

\bar X=25.02 represent the sample mean

s=4.83 represent the sample standard deviation

n=50 sample size  

\mu_o =26 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)  

State the null and alternative hypotheses.  

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean is at least 26 mpg, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 26  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 26  

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 but 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{25.02-26}{\frac{4.83}{\sqrt{50}}}=-1.435    

P-value

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

df=n-1=50-1=49  

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

p_v =P(t_{(49)}  

Conclusion  

If we compare the p value and the significance level assumed \alpha=0.05 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 lower than 26 so then the specification is satisfied.

Help<br> Find the volume of this cone.<br> Use 3 for TT.
natima [27]

Answer:

180ft^{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cone:

V=\pi r^{2} \frac{h}{3}

Take \pi as 3, as mentioned in the question

'r' is 'radius' ⇒ {diameter is given so divide by 2: 12/2 = 6}

'h' is 'height'

V=(3)(6)^{2} (\frac{5}{3} )

V=(3)(36)(\frac{5}{3} )

V=108(\frac{5}{3} )

{multiply 108 with 5 and then divide the answer by 3}

V=108 × 5

V=540

V=540/3

V=180ft^{3}

Find the value of x. Then find the missing angle measures of the polygon
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

x=10

5x=50

2x=20

Step-by-step explanation:

110+5x+2x = 180  combine like terms and move the constants to the same side

7x=70

x = 10

5(10) = 50

2(10) = 20

Alan mixes 1 1/3 cups of milk with a can of condensed soup. He makes a total of 2 5/8 cups of soup. How many cups of condensed s
Alborosie
Subtract 2_5/8 minus 1_1/3:
First, get the fractions to have a common denominator by multiplying the denominators together: 8*3 = 24
Rewrite both fractions with this new denominator:
5/8 needs to be multiplied by 3 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
5/8 * 3/3 = 15/24
1/3 needs to be multiplied by 8 on top and bottom to make it have a denominator of 24:
1/3 * 8/8 = 8/24
Now that the fractions have been rewritten with the same denominator, subtract the mixed numbers:
2_15/24 - 1_8/24
Whole numbers:
2 - 1 = 1
Fractions:
15/24 - 8/24 = 7/24.
The can of condensed soup contains 1_7/24 cup
