Answer:

the most conservative hypothesis is

<em>H₀</em>: <em>p</em> = 0.18, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em> > 0.18.

Step-by-step explanation:

The researcher wants to test whether the rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is greater than the national rate of 18% or not.

The hypothesis for this test can be defined as follows:

Null Hypothesis (H_{o}): The rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is same as the national rate, i.e. <em>p</em> = 0.18.

Alternate Hypothesis (H_{a}): The rate of smoking among adults in Chicago is greater than the national rate, i.e. <em>p</em> > 0.18.

So the most conservative hypothesis is <em>H₀</em>: <em>p</em> = 0.18, <em>Hₐ</em>: <em>p</em> > 0.18.

victus00 [196]

1. Potential Energy = mgh

h = U_g / (mg) = 14 / (17 * 9.81) = <u>0.084 m above the ground.</u>

2. Kinetic Energy = 1/2 mv^2

m = 2K_e / (v^2) = <u>2.45 kg</u>

3. U_g = mgh = (1200)(9.81)(24) = <u>282528 J</u>

4. U_g = mgh = (478)(9.81)(150) = <u>703377 J</u>

5. U_g = mgh = (100)(9.81)(12.5) = <u>12262.5 J</u>

6. h = U_g / (mg) = 14 / (17 * 9.81) = <u>0.084 m above the ground.</u>

<u />

7. m = U_g / (gh) = 1500 /  (9.81 * 35) = <u>4.37 kg</u>

There are 35 more musicians in the String section of a city Symphony Orchestra than in its Brass section. There are 29 musicians
blagie [28]
X = string section
y = brass section

x = y + 35
y = 29 .....there are 29 in the brass section

x = 29 + 35
x = 64...there are 64 in the string section

for a total of : 64 + 29 = 93 total musicians <==

Aneesha travels at a rate of 50 miles per hour. Morris is traveling 3 feet per second less than Aneesha. Which is the best estim
astra-53 [7]
It would be nice to know some options, but here's Morris's speed.
Since Morris is traveling at three feet per second, we want to change it to per hour.
3 * 3600 = 10800 feet per hour
And we would want to convert that to miles per hour.
10800/5280 is about 2, more specifically 2.05 ish.
So Morris is traveling 2 mph less then 50, or about 48 mph.
