A manufacturer of chocolate 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 15 bag sample had a mean of 409 grams with a standard deviation of 22. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Determine the decision rule for rejecting the null hypothesis. Round your answer to three decimal places.

Answer:

We reject the null hypothesis, and accept the alternative hypothesis.

So, it means that the machine is under filling the bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Null Hypothesis

H_0:\mu = 419 --- works correctly at 419g

Alternate Hypothesis

H_0:\mu < 419 --- under fills the bag

n =15 --- the sample

\bar x = 409 --- the mean

\sigma = 22 --- the standard deviation

\alpha = 0.05 --- the significance level

Required

What is the decision rule

Since n is less than 30, we make use of t test

t = \frac{\bar x - \mu}{\sigma/\sqrt n}

t = \frac{409 - 419}{22/\sqrt{15}}

t = \frac{-10}{22/ 3.87}

t = \frac{-10}{5.58}

t = -1.792

Calculate df

df = n-1

df = 15-1

df = 14

Calculate the p value from the Student's t-distribution  at df = 14 and t = -1.792

p =0.047  

Given that: \alpha = 0.05

Since p < \alpha

So, it means that the machine is under filling the bags

On a morning of a day when the sun will pass directly​ overhead, the shadow of a 60​-ft building on level ground is 25 ft long.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The shadow is decreasing at the rate of 3.55 inch/min

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the building = 60ft

The shadow of the building on the level ground is 25ft long

Ѳ is increasing at the rate of 0.24°/min

Using SOHCAHTOA,

Tan Ѳ = opposite/ adjacent

= height of the building / length of the shadow

Tan Ѳ = h/x

X= h/tan Ѳ

Recall that tan Ѳ = sin Ѳ/cos Ѳ

X= h/x (sin Ѳ/cos Ѳ)

Differentiate with respect to t

dx/dt = (-h/sin²Ѳ)dѲ/dt

When x= 25ft

tanѲ = h/x

= 60/25

Ѳ= tan^-1(60/25)

= 67.38°

dѲ/dt= 0.24°/min

Convert the height in ft to inches

1 ft = 12 inches

Therefore, 60ft = 60*12

= 720 inches

Convert degree/min to radian/min

1°= 0.0175radian

Therefore, 0.24° = 0.24 * 0.0175

= 0.0042 radian/min

Recall that

dx/dt = (-h/sin²Ѳ)dѲ/dt

= (-720/sin²(67.38))*0.0042

= (-720/0.8521)*0.0042

-3.55 inch/min

Therefore, the rate at which the length of the shadow of the building decreases is 3.55 inches/min
