Answer:
We conclude that the plant should shut down.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Population mean, μ = 60
Sample mean, = 61.498
Sample size, n = 100
Alpha, α = 0.05
Population standard deviation, σ = 6
a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis such that the power plant will be shut down when the null hypothesis is rejected.
We use One-tailed(right) z test to perform this hypothesis.
b) Formula:
Putting all the values, we have
Now,
Since,
We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.
Calculating the p-value from the z-table:
P-value = 0.0063
Since,
P-value < Significance level
We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.
The rule for the sequence is S(n) = 2S(n-1) - S(n-2)
Alternative form: S(n) = S(n-1) + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem, we know the first two terms of the sequence:
S(1) = 2
S(2) = 5
We are told that each term after the second is created by subtracting the term before the previous term from twice the previous term. In other words, if we call:
S(n) the current term
S(n-1) the previous term
S(n-2) the term before the previous term
This statement translates into the following sequence:
S(n) = 2S(n-1) - S(n-2)
Because we are subtracting the term before the previous term, S(n-2), from twice the previous term, 2S(n-1).
We can apply now the rule to find the first few terms of the sequence after S(1) and S(2):
We notice also that each term of the sequence is just equal to the previous term plus 3, so the sequence can also be written as
S(n) = S(n-1) + 3
