Answer:

-7°F

Step-by-step explanation:

At first, you might think that the answer is -9 because 9 > 7, right? Actually, the "rules" for numbers are switched when you are dealing with negative numbers. Therefore, -7 > -9 so -7°F is the correct answer.

An electric bulb is sold in a box measuring 5 cm by 4 cm by 4 cm. If the shopkeeper receives them in a carton measuring 50 cm by

katen-ka-za [31]

Answer:

250

Step-by-step explanation:

Bulb box and carton both are of cuboidal shape.

For bulb box the dimensions are:

l = 5 cm, w = 4 cm, h = 4 cm

$V_{Bulb\: box} =lwh$

$\implies V_{Bulb\: box} =5(4)(4)$

$\implies V_{Bulb\: box} =80\: cm^3$

For Carton the dimensions are:

l = 50 cm, w = 20 cm, h = 20 cm

$V_{Carton} =lwh$

$\implies V_{Carton} =50(20)(20)$

$\implies V_{Bulb\: box} =20,000\: cm^3$

To find the number of bulbs packed in the carton, divide the $V_{Carton}$ by $V_{Bulb\: box}$

$Number \:of \:bulbs =\frac{V_{Carton}}{V_{Bulb\: box}}$

$\implies Number \:of \:bulbs =\frac{20,000}{80}$

$\implies Number \:of \:bulbs = 250$

So, 250 bulbs will be packed in one carton.

If you use a 0.10 level of significance in a two-tail hypothesis test, what is your decision rule for rejecting a null hypothesi

Dovator [93]

Answer:

Our decision rule will be to reject The null hypothesis H0 if the test statistic is less than -1.645, or if it is greater than +1.645.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotheses would be;

Null hypothesis;H0: μ = 500

Alternative hypothesis;Ha: μ ≠ 500

Since it's two - tailed at 0.1 level of significance, then each tail will contain 5% or 0.05. From the z-table attached, the corresponding critical value of 0.05 is approximately 1.645 standard deviations from the mean.

Thus, our decision rule will be to reject The null hypothesis H0 if the test statistic is less than -1.645, or if it is greater than +1.645.
