A bottled water distributor wants to determine whether the mean amount of water contained in 1-gallon bottles purchased from a n

ationally known water bottling company is actually 1 gallon. You select a random sample of 100 bottles, the mean amount of water per 1-gallon bottle is 0.994 gallon, and standard deviation of the amount of water per bottle is 0.03 gallon.
You select a random sample of 50 bottles, and the mean amount of water per 1-gallon bottle is 0.995 gallon.
a. Is there evidence that the mean amount is different from 1.0 gallon? (Use α-0.01.)
b. Compute the p-value and interpret its meaning
c. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean amount of water per bottle.
d. Compare the results of (a) and (c). What conclusions do you reach?

Answer:

We fail to reject H0; Hence, we conclude that there is no significant evidence that the mean amount of water per gallon is different from 1.0 gallon

Pvalue = - 2

(0.98626 ; 1.00174)

Since, 1.0 exist within the confidence interval, then we can conclude that mean amount of water per gallon is 1.0 gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ= 1

H1 : μ < 1

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) / (s / sqrt(n))

(0.994 - 1) / (0.03/sqrt(100))

-0.006 / 0.003

= - 2

The Pvalue :

Pvalue form Test statistic :

P(Z < - 2) = 0.02275

At α = 0.01

Pvalue > 0.01 ; Hence, we fail to reject H0.

The confidence interval :

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 99% confidence level = 2.58

Margin of Error = 2.58 * 0.03/sqrt(100) = 0.00774

Confidence interval :

0.994 ± 0.00774

Lower boundary = (0.994 - 0.00774) = 0.98626

Upper boundary = (0.994 + 0.00774) = 1.00174

(0.98626 ; 1.00174)

Let A = {1, 2, 3} and R be the following relation on A;
Amanda [17]

Answer:

The relation is reflexive as

(1,1),(2,2),(3,3)∈R

(2,1)∈R will not imply (1,2)∈R,

hence R is not symmetric

(2,1),(1,3)∈R doesn't imply (2,3)∈R, hence R is not transitive

Step-by-step explanation:

hope this helps if not let me know have a blessed day

Answer:

The statements that are true are:

  • 1.575 was the coffee yield , in thousands of kilograms,before the honeybees were introduced.
  • 1.16 represents the growth factor that reveals the rate at which the coffee yield increases.
  • 2 is the number of times the coffee yield was compounded per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function that models The coffee yield, in thousands of kilograms, t years after the introduction of the honeybees.

Also, the coffee yield increases according to a model where the exponential change is compounded semiannually .

The function is given by:

f(t)=1.575(1.16)^{2t}

Here when t=0, i.e. before the honeybees were introduced we have:

f(0)=1.575

Also, the rate of increase i.e. the growth rate is denoted by : 1.16

Also, 2 represents the number of times the coffee yield is compounded per year.

HELP!!! THIS IS DUE TODAY! I WILL MARK BRAINLIEST
balandron [24]

Answer:

With replacement

probability \ of \ spade = \frac{13}{52} = \frac{1}{4} \\\\ probability \ of red\ card = \frac{26}{52} =\frac{1}{2}

probability \ of \ spade \ then \ red\ card\ without\ replacement =\frac{1}{4} \times  \frac{1}{2}  = \frac{1}{8}

Without replacement

probability \ of\ spade = \frac{13}{52}  = \frac{1}{4} \\\\probability \ of \ spade\ again =\frac{12}{51}  = \frac{4}{17}

probability \ of \ spade \ then \ red\ card\ without\ replacement = \frac{1}{4} \times\frac{4}{17} =\frac{1}{17}
