Sam and Liam raced each other up and then down the hill. Sam's average speed up the hill was 1 mph, and his average speed down t

he hill was 9 mph. Liam ran up the hill and down the hill with the same speed, 2 mph. If the path from the bottom to the top of the hill is 1 mile long, how much time did it take each of the boys to finish - and who was the winner?

So, we know that it takes Sam 1 mph up and 9 mph down and it takes Liam both 2 mph down and up the hill. So if we divide the 2 mph for Liam by 2 miles (the whole length of the hill)  we will get 1 or 1 hour. Then we do 1/1 (i don't know how to explain this part of why we do that, sorry) and than we do 1 / 9 and we get 1/9 so we add them and get 1 1/9 so that's Sam's time.

      So, Liam took one hour and Sam took 1 and 1/9 hours, in conclusion liam was faster

Complete Question

Answer:

The null hypothesis is rejected this means that \mu \ne  0.5025

The 95% confidence interval is 0.5045608 <  \mu  < 0.5046392

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The standard deviation is s= 0.0001

The sample size is n = 25

The sample mean is \= x =  0.5046 \ in

The population mean is \mu  =  0.5025 \ in

The null hypothesis is H_o  :  \mu =  0.5025

The alternative hypothesis is H_a  :  \mu \ne  0.5025

The test statistics is mathematically represented as

t =  \frac{0.5046 -  0.5025}{ \frac{0.0001}{\sqrt{25} } }

t =  105

So the p-value from the z-table is mathematically represented as

p-value  =  2 *  P( z >  105)

p-value  = 0.000

seeing that

p-value <  \alpha we reject the null hypothesis

The critical value of

\frac{\alpha }{2} obtained from the normal distribution table is

Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } =  1.96

The margin of error is mathematically represented as

E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} }*\frac{s}{\sqrt{n} }

=> E = 1.96 *\frac{0.0001}{\sqrt{25} }

=> E =3.92 *10^{-5}

The 95% confidence level is mathematically represented as

\= x  -  E  <  \mu  < \= x  + E

=> 0.5046  -  3.92 *10^{-5}  <  \mu  < 0.5046  +  3.92 *10^{-5}

=> 0.5045608 <  \mu  < 0.5046392
