Answer:

7/12.

Step-by-step explanation:

=x/x+5.

x-5/x+5+4=⅛

x-5/x+9=⅛

x-5=⅛(x+9)

x-5=⅛x+1⅛

x-⅛x=1⅛+5

⅞x=49/8

7x=49

x=7

thus the initial fraction is x/x+5= <u>7</u><u>/</u><u>1</u><u>2</u>

A rational number is a fraction

Congress regulates corporate fuel economy and sets an annual gas mileage for cars. A company with a large fleet of cars hopes to
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

There is sufficient evidence that fuel economy goal has been attained.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ < 30.2

H1 : μ ≥ 30.2

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

xbar = 32.12 ; s = 4.83 ; n = 50

Test statistic :

(32.12 - 30.2) ÷ (4.83/√(50))

1.92 ÷ 0.6830651

T = 2.811

Using the Pvalue from test statistic calculator :

Since we used the sample standard deviation, we use the T distribution

df = n - 1 = 50 - 1 = 49

Pvalue(2.811, 49) ; one tailed = 0.00354

At α = 0.05

Pvalue < α ; then we reject the null and conclude that there is sufficient evidence that fuel economy goal has been attained
