Consider the following hypothesis test: H 0: 20 H a: < 20 A sample of 60 provided a sample mean of 19.5. The population stand

viva [34]

Answer:

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, it be concluded that the population mean is less than 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 60

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 19.5

Sample size, n = 60

Alpha, α = 0.05

Population standard deviation, σ = 1.8

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 20\\H_A: \mu < 20$

We use One-tailed z test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$z_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{19.5 - 20}{\frac{1.8}{\sqrt{60}} } = -2.151$

Now, $z_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance } = -1.64$

Since,

$z_{stat} < z_{critical}$

We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, it be concluded that the population mean is less than 20.

a silo is shaped like a cylinderwith a cone on top. the radii of the bases of the cylinder and cone are both equal to 8 feet. th

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

5430.85 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Height of the cylindrical part of the cilo = 25 feet

radius of the base cylindrical part of cilo = 8 feet

Now volume of cylindrical part of cilo = $\pi r^{2} h$

Volume of cylindrical part of cilo = $\pi(8^{2})25$ = $1600\pi square feet$

Now,

Height of the conical part of cilo = 6 feet

Radius of the conical part of cilo = 8 feet

Volume of the conical part of cilo = $\frac{1}{3}\pi (8^{2})6$ = $128\pi square feet$

Volume of the entire cilo = $1600\pi + 128\pi = 1728\pi$

since $\pi =\frac{22}{7} therefore,$

volume of entire cilo = $\frac{22}{7} (1728)$ = 5430.85
