Answer:

H0: μ = 5 versus Ha: μ < 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

μ = true average radioactivity level(picocuries per liter)

5 pCi/L = dividing line between safe and unsafe water

The recommended test here is to test the null hypothesis, H0: μ = 5 against the alternative hypothesis Ha: μ < 5.

A type I error, is an error where the null hypothesis, H0 is rejected when it is true.

We know type I error can be controlled, so safer option which is to test H0: μ = 5 vs Ha: μ < 5 is recommended.

Here, a type I error involves declaring the water is safe when it is not safe. A test which ensures that this error is highly unlikely is desirable because this is a very serious error. We prefer that the most serious error be a type I error because it can be explicitly controlled.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

3:45 PM.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that on Thursday afternoon at camp Alice played basketball and went swimming before dinner she spent 45 minutes playing basketball and one hour swimming dinner lasted for an hour. The dinner ended at 5:30 PM.

Since she spent 1 hour for swimming, so 1 hour before 5:30 PM would be 4:30 PM.

To find the time, when Alice started playing basketball, we need to find 45 minutes before 4:30 PM.

30 minutes before 4:30 PM would be 4:00 PM and 15 minutes before 4:00 PM would be 3:45 PM.

Therefore, Alice started playing basket ball at 3:45 PM.
