Debnil have 2 tablespoons to salt.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Number of teaspoons of salt = 6

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 3:1

Let,

x be the number of tablespoon of salt for 6 teaspoons.

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons = 6:x

Using proportion

Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons :: Ratio of teaspoons to tablespoons

$3:1::6:x$

Product of mean = Product of extreme

$6*1=3*x\\6=3x\\3x=6$

Dividing both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}=\frac{6}{3}\\x=2$

Debnil have 2 tablespoons to salt.

Answer:

The 4th answer, at the bottom.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first answer is proportional, because y is equivalent to .5x.

The second answer is also proportional, because the ratios are equivalent.

The third answer is also proportional, because the line goes through the origin.

The fourth answer isn't proportional, because the ratios aren't equivalent.

Answer:

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is $n = 13$

The sample mean is $\= x = 9.63$

The standard deviation is $s = 0.585$

The significance level is $\alpha = 0.05$

The Null Hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = 0$

The Alternative Hypothesis is $H_a = \mu < 10$

The test statistic is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x - \mu }{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} } }$

Substituting values

$t = \frac{9.63 - 10 }{\frac{0.585}{\sqrt{13} } }$

$t = - 2.280$

Now the critical value for $\alpha$ is

$t_{\alpha } = 1.645$

This obtained from the critical value table

So comparing the critical value of alpha and the test value we see that the test value is less than the critical value so the Null Hypothesis is rejected

The conclusion is that the researcher was correct
