An appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W. From pre

vious studies, it is believed that power consumption for microwave ovens is normally distributed with a population standard deviation of 15 W. A consumer group has decided to try to discover if the claim appears true. They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W. The appropriate hypotheses to determine if the manufacturer's claim appears reasonable are

Answer:

Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 250 W  

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 250 W    

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that an appliance manufacturer claims to have developed a compact microwave oven that consumes a mean of no more than 250 W.

They take a sample of 20 microwave ovens and find that they consume a mean of 257.3 W.

<u><em>Let </em></u>\mu<u><em> = mean power consumption of microwave ovens.</em></u>

So, Null Hypothesis, H_0 : \mu \leq 250 W  

Alternate Hypothesis, H_A : \mu > 250 W    

Here, <u>null hypothesis states tha</u>t the mean power consumption of microwave ovens is no more than 250 W.

On the other hand, <u>alternate hypothesis sates that</u> the mean power consumption of microwave ovens is more than 250 W.

The test statistics that would be used here is <u>One-sample z test statistics</u> as we know about the population standard deviation;

                       T.S. =  \frac{\bar X-\mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }  ~ N(0,1)

Hence, this would be the appropriate hypotheses to determine if the manufacturer's claim appears reasonable.

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer:

A = 10.27cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's represent the width as x,

therefore since the length is 4 more than 3 times the width, it can be represent as 3x + 4,   Perimeter = 18.4cm

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2(L + B)

18.4= 2(3x+4+x)\\18.4= 6x+8+2x\\18.4-8=6x+2x\\10.4=8x\\x=\frac{10.4}{8}\\x=1.3

width = 1.3cm

Length = 3x + 4 = 3*1.3 + 4 = 7.9cm

Area of a rectangle = length x width

A = 7.9 * 1.3 = 10.27cm²
