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

a car decreased in value from $980 to $720 in one year what was the per cent of decrease to the nearest whole per cent ?
kolezko [41]

The decrease was 27%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Old value = $980

New value = $720

Decrease = Old value - New value

Decrease=980-720=\$260

Percent decrease = \frac{Decreased/ amount}{Old value}*100

Percent\ decrease=\frac{260}{980}*100\\Percent\ decrease=0.265*100\\Percent\ decrease= 26.5\%

Rounding off to near whole percent

Percent decrease = 27%

The decrease was 27%.

URGENT 30 POINTS! Solve. {y=x−75x+2y=7 Use the substitution method.
NeTakaya
Y = x - 7 ---------- (1)
5x + 2y = 7 ------ (2)

Sub (1) into (2):
5x + 2(x -7) = 7
5x + 2x - 14 = 7
7x - 14 = 7
7x = 7 + 14
7x = 21
x = 3 ----- -sub into (1)
y = x - 7
y = 3 - 7
y = -4

Ans: x = 3, y = -4
