Answer:

4.464 ml

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

mean (μ) = 5 mm, standard deviation (σ) = 0.4 ml

The z score is a score in statistics used to determine by how many standard deviation the raw score is above or below the mean. If the z score is positive then the raw score is above the mean and if the z score is negative then the raw score is below the mean It is given by:

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

From the normal distribution table, the 9th percentile (0.09) corresponds to a z score of -1.34

z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}\\\\-1.34=\frac{x-5}{0.4}\\\\x-5=-0.536\\\\x=5-0.536\\\\x=4.464

The dye amount that represents the 9th percentile of the distribution is 4.464 ml

Answer:

a. True

Step-by-step explanation:

By ∝= 5% we mean that there are about 5 chances in 100 of incorrectly rejecting a true null hypothesis. To put it in another way , we say that we are 95% confident in making the correct decision.

In the given question the null hypothesis is

H0: u ≤ 1 hour and Ha:  u > 1 hour

So there is a 5% chance that the erroneous conclusion will be made that students spend on average more than 1 hour per assignment.

The given statement is true.
