A consumer research organization states that the mean caffeine content per 12-ounce bottle of a population of caffeinated soft d

rinks is 37.8 milligrams. You find a random sample of 48 12-ounce bottles of caffeinated soft drinks that has a mean caffeine content of 41.5 milligrams. Assume the population standard deviation is 12.5 milligrams. At α=0.05, what type of test is this and can you reject the organization’s claim using the test statistic?

Answer:

This test is z test and we reject the organization’s claim .

Step-by-step explanation:

Claim : The mean caffeine content per 12-ounce bottle of a population of caffeinated soft drinks is 37.8 milligrams.

H_0:\mu \neq 37.8\\H_a:\mu = 37.8

n = No. of samples = 48

The population standard deviation is 12.5 milligrams.

Since n > 30 and population standard deviation is given .

So, we will use z test

x = 41.5\\\sigma = 12.5 \\n = 48\\ \mu = 37.8

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

Substitute the values in the formula :

z=\frac{41.5-37.8}{\frac{12.5}{\sqrt{48}}}

z=2.050

Refer the z table for p value

p value = 0.9798

α=0.05

p value > α

So, we accept the null hypothesis.

So, we reject the organization’s claim .

Hence this test is z test and we reject the organization’s claim .

The students in the fourth and fifth grades are going to a concert. There are 178 students. Each row has 8 seats. The fifth grad
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:  So there are 148 students total and we know the fifth graders filled up 12 rows and since each row has a number of 8 seats we should multiply 8 times 12, which is equal to 96. Now in order to find the number of rows needed for the fourth graders we should first, subtract 178 minus 96; that is equal to 82. Next, we should divide 82 by the number of seats in each row since what we are trying to find id the number of rows needed for the fourth graders. So, we should divide 82 by 8 which is equal to 10. 25.

The number of rows needed is 11 since all students need to have a seat; the answer cannot be 10 because that means a few students would not have a seat.

Given the function p below, which statement correctly compares the values of p(1) and p(2)? P(x)=4 x
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

The value of P(2) is twice that of P(1).

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x) = 4x so:

P(1) = 4*1 = 4 and

P(2) = 4*2 = 8.

The polygons are similar but not necessarily drown to scale. What is the value of x?
qaws [65]

Answer: 38

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the polygons are similar, the corresponding sides are all in the same proportions.

x-2/4.5 = 16/2 = 48/6

<u>Solving for x</u>

\frac{x-2}{4.5}=\frac{48}{6}

\frac{x-2}{4.5}=8

\frac{4.5\left(x-2\right)}{4.5}=8\cdot \:4.5

x-2=36

x-2+2=36+2

x=38

Therefore, the value of x is 38
