In developing a new gasoline additive, researchers randomly select 10 cars and drive them both with and without the additive. Th

e sample mean difference in gas mileage (mpg with additive - mpg without additive) is 0.41 mpg with a sample variance of 0.16. Assume the differences are from an approximately normal distribution. We want to test the hypothesis that the fuel additive has mean mpg less than the mean mpg without the additive. Calculate the test statistic.

Answer:

The test statistic is t = 3.24.

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to test the hypothesis that the fuel additive has mean mpg less than the mean mpg without the additive.

This means that the null hypothesis is that the difference is less than 0, while the alternate hypothesis is that the difference is 0 or more.

The test statistic is:

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

In which X is the sample mean, \mu is the value tested at the null hypothesis, s is the standard deviation of the sample and n is the size of the sample.

0 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that \mu = 0

Randomly select 10 cars

This means that n = 10

The sample mean difference in gas mileage (mpg with additive - mpg without additive) is 0.41 mpg with a sample variance of 0.16.

This means that X = 0.41, s = \sqrt{0.16} = 0.4

Calculate the test statistic.

t = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}

t = \frac{0.41 - 0}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{10}}}

t = 3.24

The test statistic is t = 3.24.

Write the expression using a single exponent.
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:  D.  7^11

Reason:

The rule we use is a^b*a^c = a^{b+c}

When multiplying exponentials of the same base, we add the exponents.

The exponents 5 and 6 add to 5+6 = 11

So,

7^5 \times 7^6 = 7^{5+6} = 7^{11}

The base stays the same the entire time.

Simplify 6^7/6^5 in index form
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

6²

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the rule of exponents

\frac{a^{m} }{a^{n} } ⇔ a^{(m-n)} , then

\frac{6^{7} }{6^{5} }

= 6^{(7-5)}

= 6²

In ΔTUV, the measure of ∠V=90°, VT = 64 feet, and UV = 43 feet. Find the measure of ∠U to the nearest tenth of a degree.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

47.8°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first outline the important parameters

--- <V = 90°

Vt = 64

UV = 43

The angles in a triangle sums up to 180,but we don't have up to 2 angles given so as to find the third one. What we have to is to find the second angle,in this case T,using the sine rule.

Sin v/v = sin t/t

(Sin 90)/64 = sin t/43

Cross multiply and we have

43 sin 90 = 64 sin t

Sin t = 43 sin 90 ÷ 64

Sin t = 0.6719

Sine inverse of t = 42.2°(the second angle)

Angle U = 180 -( 90 + 42.2)

180 - 132.2

= 47.8°
