The desired percentage of SiO2 in a certain type of aluminous cement is 5.5. To test whether the true average percentage is 5.5

for a particular production facility, 16 independently obtained samples are analyzed. Suppose that the percentage of SiO2 in a sample is normally distributed with and that . a. Does this indicate conclusively that the true average percentage differs from 5.5

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a test of mean where σ, the population standard deviation is known. The null hypothesis H₀ : µ =  µ₀ = 5.5; the alternative H₁ : µ ≠ µ₀. Since σ is known, z =  (x − µ₀

)/(σ/√n)   is normally distributed for all n and so,  for a two-tailed test, we reject H₀ if z ≥ z(α/2) or z ≤ −z(α/2). In this case, α = 0.05 so z(α/2) = z(.025) = 1.960.

P = 2P (Z ≥ |z|) = 2P

*(Z ≥  (x − µ₀)/(

σ/√

n))

⇒  P = 2P

*(Z ≥  (5.25 − 5.5)/(

0.32/√16))  = 2P

*(Z ≥  -3.125)  = 2*(0.9991) = 1.9982

We reject the null hypothesis that the true average is 5.5.

Answer:

since p value < x(0.05) so we reject the null hypothesis

step 5 ( conclusion)

reject the null hypothesis and there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the true average percentage differs from 5.5.

Answer:

1.1 : C - x^2 + x - 2

1.2 : A - 4a^2 - 6b^2 + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have the expression p(x) - q(x), we can substitute those functions in:

(x^2 + 2x - 5) - (x - 3)

We can distribute:

x^2 + 2x - 5 - x + 3

and then combine like terms(2x & -x, -5 & 3)

x^2 + x - 2

This is the same as C.

We can start by distributing:

a^2 - 2b^2 + 3 - 4b^2 + 5 + 3a^2 + 4

Now, we can combine all the a^2 terms(a^2 & 3a^2):

4a^2 - 2b^2 + 3 - 4b^2 + 5 + 4

Then, we can combine the b^2 terms(-2b^2 & -4b^2):

4a^2 - 6b^2 + 3 + 4 + 5

and lastly, all the constants:

4a^2 - 6b^2 + 12

This aligns with option A

How do you solve a problem involving squeeze theorem?
nadezda [96]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

if two functions are squeezed together at a particular point , then any function trapped between them will get squeezed to that point. the squeeze theorem deals with limit value , rather than function value. the squeeze theorem sometimes called Pinch Theorem.
