A manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 419 gram setting. It is

believed that the machine is underfilling the bags. A 19 bag sample had a mean of 412 grams with a variance of 784. A level of significance of 0.025 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Is there sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Answer:

The calculated t- value = 1.09 > 3.19 at 0.025 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Step(i)</em></u>:-

Given the mean of the Population(μ)  = 419 grams

The sample size 'n' =19

Given mean of the sample x⁻ = 412

Given variance of the sample S² = 784

                                                 S = √784 = 28

<u><em>Step(ii)</em></u>:-

<u><em>Null hypothesis: H₀</em></u>: There is no sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled.

<u><em>Alternative hypothesis: H₁:</em></u>

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled.

Test statistic

                     t = \frac{x^{-} -mean}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } }

                    t = \frac{412 -419}{\frac{28}{\sqrt{19} } }

                   t = -1.09

                 |t| = |-1.09|

<em>Degrees of freedom   ν = n-1 = 19-1 =18</em>

<em>t₀.₀₂₅ =  3.19</em>

<u><em>Final answer:</em></u><em>-</em>

The calculated t- value = 1.09 > 3.19 at 0.025 level of significance

Null hypothesis is rejected

There is sufficient evidence to support the claim that the bags are underfilled

An isosceles triangle has a perimeter of 18 cm. Find a function that models its area A in terms of the length of its base b.
IgorLugansk [536]
So.... notice the picture below

now, we know what the "height" or "altitude" is
now, we also know the perimeter is 18cm

so, k + k + b = 18
or 2k + b = 18
thus  \bf k=\cfrac{18-b}{2}

so... one can say that \bf \textit{area of a triangle}=A=\cfrac{1}{2}bh\qquad &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;b=b&#10;\\\\&#10;h=\sqrt{k^2-\left( \frac{b}{2} \right)^2}&#10;\\\\&#10;h=\sqrt{k^2-\frac{b^2}{4}}\\&#10;--------------\\&#10;k=\frac{18-b}{2}\qquad thus\\&#10;--------------\\&#10;h=\sqrt{\left( \frac{18-b}{2} \right)^2-\frac{b^2}{4}}&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-----------------------------\\\\&#10;A=\cfrac{1}{2}\cdot b\cdot \sqrt{\left( \frac{18-b}{2} \right)^2-\frac{b^2}{4}}

and you can simplify it if you wish.. not sure you have to

From our lesson, what is your difficulty in dealing with exponential expressions?
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

From the said lesson, the difficulty that I have been trough in dealing over the exponential expressions is the confusion that frequently occurs across my system whenever there's a thing that I haven't fully understand. It's not that I did not actually understand what the topic was, but it is just somewhat confusing and such. Also, upon working with exponential expressions — indeed, I have to remember the rules that pertain to dealing with exponents and frequently, I will just found myself unconsciously forgetting what those rule were — rules which is a big deal or a big thing in the said lesson because it is obviously necessary/needed over that matter. Surely, it is also a big help for me to deal with exponential expressions since it's so much necessary — it's so much necessary but I keep fogetting it.. hence, that's why I call it a difficulty. That's what my difficulty. And in order to overcome that difficulty, I will do my best to remember and understand well the said rules as soon as possible.

There are 26.2 miles in a marathon.write the number of miles using fraction
Alja [10]
You can write it in two types of fractions:
1) ur answer will be 26 and 2/10 which can be simplified to 26 and 1/5
2) ur answer will be 262/10 which can be simplified to 131/5
The first is the more recommended way of writing your answers.
