Based on a random sample of 25 units of product X, the average weight is 102 lbs., and the sample standard deviation is 10 lbs.

We would like to decide if there is enough evidence to establish that the average weight for the population of product X is greater than 100 lbs. Assume the population is normally distributed.
What are the null and alternate hypotheses?

What is the test statistic?

At ( = .05 what is the critical value?

What is the test decision and why?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that for a sample size of 25, sample mean = 102 lbs. and sample std deviation = 10 lbs.

H_0: \bar x = 100\\H_a: \bar x >100

(Right tailed test)

Given that we assume population is normally distributed

Test statistic:

Mean difference = +2

Std error of sample = \frac{10}{\sqrt{25} } =2

t = test statistic = Mean diff/Std error = 1

degree of freedom= n-1 =24

Critical value of t = 1.711

Our test statistic >1.71

Accept alternate hypothesis

Because there is significant difference between the test statistic and test statistic lies above critical value.

If the cost of a 2.5 meter cloth is $30.5. What will be the cost of 22 meters ?
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

268.40

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a ratio to solve

2.5 meters        22 meters

-----------------  = --------------

30.5 dollars       x dollars

Using cross products

2.5 * x = 30.5 * 22

2.5x =671

Divide each side by 2.5

2.5x / 2.5 = 671/2.5

x =268.4

Solve the system of equations by the addition method.<br> 1 - 3x = -5y - 8<br> 6x<br> 3y = -5
Advocard [28]

-3x = -5y -8~~~....(i) \\\\6x -3y = -5 ~~......(ii)\\\\\text{Multiply  equation (i) by 2 and do (i) + (ii):}\\\\2 \cdot (-3x) + 6x  -3y = 2(-5y-8)  + (-5)\\\\\implies -6x +6x -3y = -10y -16 -5 \\\\\implies -3y   = -10y -21\\\\\implies -3y +10y =-21\\\\\implies 7y = -21 \\\\\implies y = -\dfrac{21} 7 = -3\\\\\text{Substitute}~y =-3~ \text{in equation (ii):} \\\\6x - 3(-3) = -5\\\\\implies 6x +9  = -5\\\\\implies 6x = -5 -9 = -14\\\\\implies x = -\dfrac{14}6 = - \dfrac{7}3\\

\text{Hence}~ (x,y) = \left(-\dfrac 73, -3 \right)

Y = x —6x+8 The equation above represents a parabola in the xy-plane. Which of the following equivalent forms of the equation di
forsale [732]

Answer:

y=(x-4)(x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the given equation

y=x^2-6x+8

Factor form of a parabola: It displays the x-intercepts.

y=a(x-p)(x-q)          .... (1)

where, a is a constant and, p and q are x-intercepts.

So, we need to find the factored form of the given equation.

Splinting the middle term we get

y=x^2-4x-2x+8

y=x(x-4)-2(x-4)

y=(x-4)(x-2)         .... (2)

On comparing (1) and (2) we get

p=4,q=2

It means x-intercepts of the given parabola are 4 and 2.

Therefore, equivalent forms of the equation is y=(x-4)(x-2).
