Answer:
The pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05 means that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance
Step-by-step explanation:
The null hypothesis is:
![H_{0} = 28](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=H_%7B0%7D%20%3D%2028)
The alternate hypotesis is:
![H_{1} < 28](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=H_%7B1%7D%20%3C%2028)
The test statistic is:
![z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7Bn%7D%7D%7D)
In which X is the sample mean,
is the value tested at the null hypothesis,
is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.
A recent survey of 50 executives who were laid off during a recent recession revealed it took a mean of 26 weeks for them to find another position.
This means that ![n = 50, X = 26](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=n%20%3D%2050%2C%20X%20%3D%2026)
Assume the population standard deviation is 6.2 weeks.
This means that ![\sigma = 6.2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Csigma%20%3D%206.2)
Does the data provide sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance
We have to find the pvalue of Z, looking at the z-table, when
. It if is lower than 0.05, it provides evidence.
![z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7BX%20-%20%5Cmu%7D%7B%5Cfrac%7B%5Csigma%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7Bn%7D%7D%7D)
![z = \frac{26 - 28}{\frac{6.2}{\sqrt{50}}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%20%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B26%20-%2028%7D%7B%5Cfrac%7B6.2%7D%7B%5Csqrt%7B50%7D%7D%7D)
![z = -2.28](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=z%20%3D%20-2.28)
has a pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05.
The pvalue of 0.0113 < 0.05 means that there is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time to find another position is less than 28 weeks at the 5% level of significance
Same sign add different sign subtract that means if their both positive you add and if one is positive and the other is negative you subtract
Alternative form =6.28319
Answer:
Total number of peanuts =n
He shared with 5 people = 6 people
Each person had at least 18
n/6>=18
Step-by-step explanation:
When question like this is given , the English is very important. He shares with his friends is different from he shares among his friends. Then also, at least means greater than or equal to.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Using the Remainder theorem
If f(x) is divided by (x - h) then f(h) = remainder, thus
f(3) = 3³ + a(3)² + b(3) + 4 = 10, that is
27 + 9a + 3b + 4 = 10
9a + 3b + 31 = 10 ( subtract 31 from both sides )
9a + 3b = - 21 → (1)
f(- 1) = (- 1)³ + a(- 1)² + b(- 1) + 4 = 6, that is
- 1 + a - b + 4 = 6
a - b + 3 = 6 ( subtract 3 from both sides )
a - b = 3 → (2)
Rearrange (2) expressing a in terms of b
a = 3 + b → (3)
Substitute a = 3 + b into (1)
9(3 + b) + 3b = - 21 ← distribute and simplify left side
27 + 9b + 3b = - 21
12b + 27 = - 21 ( subtract 27 from both sides )
12b = - 48 ( divide both sides by 12 )
b = - 4
Substitute b = - 4 into (3)
a = 3 - 4 = - 1
Hence a = - 1 and b = - 4
