Answer:
<em>8 more men are needed to complete the job</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Proportions</u>
This problem can be solved by step-by-step reasoning applying proportions:
- 16 men working 9 hrs a day complete the job in 14 days
- 16 men working 1 hr a day complete the job in 14*9 days
The above statement stands because the fewer hours of work, the more time the job needs to be completed. Let's continue.
- 1 man working 1 hr a day complete the job in 14*9*16 days
The same reasoning applies here, fewer men=more days.
Now for the second condition. Increase the hours/day:
- 1 man working 7 hrs a day complete the job in 14*9*16/7 days
More hours/day=less days to complete the job
- x men working 7 hrs a day complete the job in 14*9*16/(7*x) days
We know this last time is 12 days, thus:

Solving for x:

24 men are needed now, this is an increase of 24-16=8 more men
8 more men are needed to complete the job
Answer: Rejecting the mean weight of each cake as 500 gram when H subscript 0 equals 500
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Null hypothesis : H0 =500
Alternative hypothesis : Ha < 500
Type 1 Error: Type 1 error simply occurs when we reject the Null hypothesis when the Null is true. Alternatively, type 11 error occurs when we fail to reject a false null hypothesis.
Hence, in the scenario above, a type 1 error will occur when we reject the mean weight as 500 even though the Null hypothesis is True.
30 miles for a single gallon.
first we find out how many gallons would be used.
number of gallons = 1020/30
gallons = 34.
and since 1 gallon costs $4.06
34 gallons would cost = 34 x 4.06 = $138.04

Answer is 2000 (after rounding to nearest thousands).
