1. A researcher believes that university students weigh more than the population. The researcher reasons that more time spent on

studying for exams means having less time to exercise. The researcher selects an alpha level of 0.10 (or CL = 90%). Upon looking at census data, the average American weighs 170lbs with a standard deviation of 35lbs.
The researcher takes a random sample of 225 CSU students and finds that the mean weight of CSU students is 180lbs with a sample standard deviation of 45.

Is there enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis?

Answer:

The null and alternative hypotheses are:

H_{0}: \mu = 170

H_{a}: \mu >170

Under the null hypothesis, the test statistic is:

z=\frac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}} }

         =\frac{180-170}{\frac{35}{\sqrt{225}} }

         =\frac{10}{2.33}

         =4.29

Now, we have to find the right tailed z critical value at 0.10 significance level. Using the standard normal table, we have:

z_{critical} = 1.28

Since the test statistic is greater than the z critical value, we therefore, reject the null hypothesis and conclude that there is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the university students weigh more than the population.

The equation of the line CD is (y-3)=-2(x-4). what is the scope of the line perpendicular to line CD
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

y=-1/2x-5

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to put (y-3)=2(x-4) in slope intercept form.

we need to do order of operations....

so we need to first do the parenthesis

x*2= 2x

2*-4= -8

y-3=2x-8

add 3 on both sides to isolate y

y= 2x-5

so now we know the y=mx+b form

this is one line...

now we need to find out what line is perpendicular.

Perpendicular lines have opposite reciprocals slopes.

y=-1/2x-5

Calculate the lateral area of the cube if the perimeter of the base is 12 units
Brums [2.3K]

The lateral area of the cube is 36 sq units

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u />

Given:

Perimeter of the base of the cube = 12 units

Base of the cube has 4 sides

So, the perimeter of the base = 4a

where,

a is the length of one side

Thus,

4a = 12 units

a = 3 units

Lateral surface area of the cube = 4a²

A = 4 X (3)²

A = 36 sq units

Therefore, the lateral area of the cube is 36 sq units

On any given day, the number of users, u, that access a certain website can be represented by the inequality 125-4530
Masteriza [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Our inequality is |125-u| ≤ 30. Let's separate this into two. Assuming that (125-u) is positive, we have 125-u ≤ 30, and if we assume that it's negative, we'd have -(125-u)≤30, or u-125≤30.

Therefore, we now have two inequalities to solve for:

125-u ≤ 30

u-125≤30

For the first one, we can subtract 125 and add u to both sides, resulting in

0 ≤ u-95, or 95≤u. Therefore, that is our first inequality.

The second one can be figured out by adding 125 to both sides, so u ≤ 155.

Remember that we took these two inequalities from an absolute value -- as a result, they BOTH must be true in order for the original inequality to be true. Therefore,

u ≥ 95

and

u ≤ 155

combine to be

95 ≤ u ≤ 155, or the 4th option
