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

The diameter of a tire is 2.5 ft. Use this measurement to answer parts a and b. Show all work to receive full credit.
konstantin123 [22]
Thank you for posting your question here. Please see below answers for the problem above:

a. to find the circumference of the tire you need to multiply 3.14 by 2.5:
 = 3.14 x 2.5
 = 7.85 to round of it will be 8

b. to get the number of times the tire have to rotate to travel 1 mile:

1 mile = 5,280 ft
1 rotation is 7.85 
5,280/7.85 = 672.611465

Solve the system using the substituiton method<br> branliest offered<br> 3x-7y=10<br> x-4y=5
fiasKO [112]
Hi there!

To solve this problem using substitution, we need to set x equal to a value and substitute it into the other equation.

Since
x - 4y = 5,
x = 5 + 4y

3x - 7y = 10
3(5 + 4y) - 7y = 10
15 + 12y - 7y = 10
15 + 5y = 10
5y = -5
y = -1

Now that we know y is -1, we can substitute it back into the equation to find x:

y = -1
x - 4y = 5
x - 4(-1) = 5
x - (-4) = 5
x + 4 = 5
x = 1

So, your answers are x = 1 and y = -1.

Hope this helps!

Write this in set notation [-13; 4 )​
juin [17]

Answer:

13\leq x

Explanation:

If a side has a bracket [] then it is less than or equal to, meaning that it can reach that exact number.

However, if a side has a parentheses () then it is simply less than. It cannot be that exact number, but it can be even slightly less than that number.

If f(x) = 4(3x - 5), find f^-1(x)
Sloan [31]

Answer:

The answer is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets call f(x)=y, so y= 4*(3*x-5), we want to find 'x', using 'y' as a the variable.

y=12x-20\\ y+20=12x\\ x=\frac{y+20}{12}

Now lets change the name of 'y' to 'x', and 'x' to f^-1(x).

f-1(x) = (x+20)/12
