-5x+y=6 -3x+6y=-12 Solving systems of equations by substitution
1 answer:
if you isolate y in the top equation to get y=5x+6 then you can substiture y for 5x+6 in the bottom equation because thats what y equals
as of now you have -3x+6(5x+6)=-12 but if you use the distrubite property you would get -3x+30x+36=-12
then if you subtract 36 from both sides you would get -3x+30x=-48 then combine like terms to get 27x=-48 then divide both sides by 27 to get or x≈1.8

Answer:
a)
The null hypothesis is
The alternative hypothesis is
b-1) The value of the test statistic is t = 1.86.
b-2) The p-value is of 0.0348.
Step-by-step explanation:
Question a:
Test if the battery life is more than twice of 5 hours:
Twice of 5 hours = 5*2 = 10 hours.
At the null hypothesis, we test if the battery life is of 10 hours or less, than is:
At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the battery life is of more than 10 hours, that is:
b-1. Calculate the value of the test statistic.
The test statistic is:
We have the standard deviation for the sample, so the t-distribution is used to solve this question
In which X is the sample mean, is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
10 is tested at the null hypothesis:
This means that
In order to test the claim, a researcher samples 45 units of the new phone and finds that the sample battery life averages 10.5 hours with a sample standard deviation of 1.8 hours.
This means that
Then
The value of the test statistic is t = 1.86.
b-2. Find the p-value.
Testing if the mean is more than a value, so a right-tailed test.
Sample of 45, so 45 - 1 = 44 degrees of freedom.
Test statistic t = 1.86.
Using a t-distribution calculator, the p-value is of 0.0348.
