It takes 22 hours for a hosepipe with a flow of 12 litres per minute to fill a swimming pool. How long will it take if its flow

is reduced to 5 litres per minute?

Answer:

t2 = 52.8 hours

it will take 52.8 hours if its flow is reduced to 5 litres per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the swimming pool can be written as;

Volume V = flow rate × time

V = R×t

V = R1×t1 = R2×t2

R1×t1 = R2×t2

t2 = R1×t1/R2 ........1

Given;

Flow rate R1 = 12 litres per minute

Flow rate R2 = 5 litres per minute

time t1 = 22 hours

Substituting the given values into equation 1;

t2 = R1×t1/R2 = 12×22/5

t2 = 52.8 hours

it will take 52.8 hours if its flow is reduced to 5 litres per minute.

A school authority claims that the average height of students is 178 cm. A researcher has taken a well-designed survey and his s
Hunter-Best [27]

Answer:

d) The difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given information:

Population mean = 178 cm

the sample mean = 177.5 cm

the standard deviation = 2

the sample size = 25

The null hypothesis and the alternative hypothesis can be computed as:

Null hypothesis:

H_o: \mu = 178

Alternative hypothesis:

H_1: \mu \neq 178

The t-test statistics is determined by using the formula:

t = \dfrac{X - \mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \dfrac{177.5 - 178}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{25}}}

t = \dfrac{-0.5}{\dfrac{2}{5}}}

\mathbf{t= -1.25}

Degree of freedom df = n- 1

Degree of freedom df = 25 - 1

Degree of freedom df = 24

At the level of significance ∝ = 0.05, the critical value  = 2.064

Decision rule: To reject the null hypothesis if the test statistics  is greater than the critical value at 0.05 level of significance

Conclusion: We fail to reject the null hypothesis since the test statistics is lesser than the critical value and we conclude that  the difference exists due to chance since the test statistic is small

21 lbs of potatoes cost $231. How much would 28 lbs cost?
bija089 [108]

Answer:

$308

Step-by-step explanation:
