The answer is 34 you would divide 9 from 72 and get 8 then 8*2 plus 9*2

The area is found by multiplying the Length x the Width. 9 x ?=72
9x8=72 Now you know the length of each side. 9+9+8+8 =34
Adding the lengths of each side will give you the perimeter. 34 is the answer.

An automobile manufacturer who wishes to advertise that one of its models achieves 30 mpg (miles per gallon) decides to carry ou

Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

$t=\frac{29.35-30}{\frac{1.365}{\sqrt{6}}}=-1.17$

$p_v =P(t_{(5)}$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

We can say that at 5% of significance the true mean is not significantly less than 30 so then the claim that true average fuel efficiency is (at least) 30 mpg makes sense

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

The mean and sample deviation can be calculated from the following formulas:

$\bar X =\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n x_i}{n}$

$s=\sqrt{\frac{\sum_{i=1}^n (x_i -\bar X)}{n-1}}$

$\bar X=29.35$ represent the sample mean

$s=1.365$ represent the sample standard deviation

$n=6$ sample size

$\mu_o =30$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.05$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is lower than 30 or no, the system of hypothesis are :

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 30$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 30$

Since we don't know the population deviation, is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{29.35-30}{\frac{1.365}{\sqrt{6}}}=-1.17$

P-value

We need to calculate the degrees of freedom first given by:

$df=n-1=6-1=5$

Since is a one-side left tailed test the p value would given by:

$p_v =P(t_{(5)}$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.05$ we see that $p_v>\alpha$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to FAIL to reject the null hypothesis.

We can say that at 5% of significance the true mean is not significantly less than 30 so then the claim that true average fuel efficiency is (at least) 30 mpg makes sense

Assume that we want to construct a confidence interval. Do one of the following, as appropriate:_________.

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Answer:

B. z Subscript alpha divided by 2 zα/2 = 1.96.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that we want to construct a confidence interval. For this, the summary statistics for randomly selected weights of newborn girls:

n = 236, $\bar x$ = 30.3 hg, s = 7.2 hg. The confidence level is 95%.

As we can clearly see here that the population standard deviation is unknown and the sample size is also very large.

It has been stated that when the population standard deviation is unknown, we should use t-distribution but since the sample size is very large so we can use z distribution also as it is stated that at very large samples; the t-distribution corresponds to the z-distribution.

Here, $\alpha$ = level of significance = 1 - 0.95 = 0.05 or 5%
