Answer:

4 18/12 - (2 8/12+ 3/12)= 2 7/12

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to know that you want to subtract the bird seed Jackie got (2 2/3 and 1/4) by the total Jackie bought (5 1/2).

Now set up the equation as 5 1/2 - (2 2/3+ 1/4). Now you need to realize that the fractions are not the same and need to be changed to similar denominators. 2 can be changed to any even denominator so it matters less to what we change it to, so let's focus on the bird seed Jackie used and convert it. 2/3 and 1/4 can be changed into 12's so multiply on the numerator and denominator to get these values. 2/3 would then become 8/12 and 1/4 would become 3/12. 1/2 would then also become 6/12.

Now that we have changed the fractions you want to change the expression to 5 6/12 - (2 8/12+ 3/12). Now add the values in the parentheses to get 5 6/12 - (2 11/12). Now to make this easier add more 12's to 5 6/12 by putting it to 4 18/12. the new equation will be 4 18/12 - 2 11/12, finally subtract from from the same types of numbers: 4-2= 2 18/12-11/12= 7/12. The answer would be 2 7/12.

A company has developed a new ink-jet cartridge for its printer that it believes has a longer life-time on average than the one
Mila [183]

Answer:

The test hypothesis is :

H_0: \mu=1502.5\\ H_a: \mu>1502.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Null hypothesis refer the population parameter is equal to the claimed value.

If there is no statistical significance in the test then it is know as the null which is denoted by H_0, otherwise it is known as alternative hypothesis which denoted by H_a.

The historical average lifetime for cartridges produced by the current process is 1502.5 pages.

Hence, the test hypothesis is :

H_0: \mu=1502.5\\ H_a: \mu>1502.5
