Answer:
The value of t test statistics is -2.25.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that a manufacturer of banana chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 402 gram setting. It is believed that the machine is under filling the bags.
A 25 bag sample had a mean of 393 grams with a standard deviation of 20.
<u><em>Let </em></u><u><em> = mean filling of bags by the machine.</em></u>
So, Null Hypothesis, :
402 gram {means that the the machine is not under filling the bags}
Alternate Hypothesis, :
< 402 gram {means that the the machine is under filling the bags}
The test statistics that would be used here <u>One-sample t test statistics</u> as we don't know about the population standard deviation;
T.S. = ~
where, = sample mean bag filling = 393 grams
s = sample standard deviation = 20 grams
n = sample of bags = 25
So, <u><em>test statistics</em></u> = ~
= -2.25
The value of t test statistics is -2.25.
You have the correct answer. Nice work. If you need to see the steps, then see below

First we need to find the midpoint of H and I
The x coordinates of the two points are -4 and 2. They add to -4+2 = -2 and then cut that in half to get -1
Do the same for the y coordinates: 2+4 = 6 which cuts in half to get 3
So the midpoint of H and I is (-1,3). The perpendicular bisector will go through this midpoint
---------------------
Now we must find the slope of segment HI
H = (-4,2) = (x1,y1)
I = (2,4) = (x2,y2)
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
m = (4 - 2)/(2 - (-4))
m = (4 - 2)/(2 + 4)
m = 2/6
m = 1/3
Flip the fraction to get 1/3 ---> 3/1 = 3
Then flip the sign: +3 ----> -3
So the slope of the perpendicular bisector is -3
-----------------------
Use m = -3 which is the slope we found
and (x,y) = (-1,3), which is the midpoint found earlier
to get the following
y = mx+b
3 = -3*(-1)+b
3 = 3+b
3-3 = 3+b-3
0 = b
b = 0
So if m = -3 and b = 0, then y = mx+b turns into y = -3x+0 and it simplifies to y = -3x
So that confirms you have the right answer. I've also used GeoGebra to help confirm the answer (see attached)
