Answer:

(A)129 Pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of 23% zink alloy

Therefore:

Since the total result is 516 pounds

The number of pounds of 42% zink alloy =516-x pounds

We then have the resulting equation:

0.23x+0.42(516-x)=0.3725*516

0.23x+216.72-0.42x=192.21

Colect like terms

0.23x-0.42x=192.21-216.72

-0.19x=-24.51

Divide both sides by 129

x=129 pounds

Therefore, the number of pounds of 23% zink alloy that must be mixed is 129 pounds.

babunello [35]

Answer:

No, we cannot conclude anything about 0.10

Yes, they have made the same decision.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Part (A)

They based this conclusion on a test using α = 0.05. Would they have made the same decision at α = 0.10

A significance level of 0.05 indicates a 5% risk of concluding that a difference exists

From the normal table the critical value is Z(0.05) = 1.645 and we accept null hypothesis.

If α = 0.1, the critical value is Z(0.1)=1.28

1.28 is less than 1.645.

Therefore, we cannot conclude anything about 0.10

Part (B)

α = 0.01, the critical value is Z(0.01)=2.33

The critical value of α = 0.05 is 1.645 which is less than 2.33,

So we would again reject the null hypothesis.

Hence, they have made the same decision.
