Answer:

The claim is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data :

13 24 21 37 15 25 18 22 40 32

The sample mean and standard deviation can ben calculated for the given sample.

Using calculator :

Sample mean, xbar = 24.7

Sample standard deviation, s = 9.04

Sample size, n = 10

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 17

H1 : μ ≠ 17

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))

(24.7 - 17) ÷ (9.04/√(10))

7.7 / 2.8586990

Test statistic = 2.694

We can obtain the Pvalue, at α = 0.05 ; df = n-1 = 9

Pvalue = 0.0246

Since Pvalue < α ; we reject the null ; Hence, there is significant evidence to conclude that an adult American does not spend average of 17 hours in leisure

Solve the right triangle ABC with right angle C if B=30 degrees and c=10.
kenny6666 [7]
C=10, C=90°, B=30°, A+B+C=180°
A+30°+90°=180°⇒A=60°

cos30°=a/c
cos30°=a/10⇒a=cos30°*10
a<span>≃8.6602


c²=a²+b²⇒b²=c²-a²
b²=10²-8.6602²⇒b²=25
b=5
