Someone please help me

The weights of soy patties sold by Veggie Burgers Delight are normally distributed. A random sample of 15 patties yields a mean

Elden [556K]

Answer:

$t=\frac{3.8-4}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{15}}}=-1.549$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=3.8$ represent the sample mean

$s=0.5$ represent the sample standard deviation for the sample

$n=15$ sample size

$\mu_o =4$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the mean weight is less than 4 ounces, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 68$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 4$

If we analyze the size for the sample is < 30 and we don't know the population deviation so is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

Calculate the statistic

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{3.8-4}{\frac{0.5}{\sqrt{15}}}=-1.549$

Can somebody answer this (on the picture) algebra question please

zheka24 [161]

I am torn between B and D because increased means add, but I am going to go with B 1 - 3n. I choose B because in the D option it decreases not increases.

So the answer is B.) 1 - 3n
Hope this helps! - Alyssa

A car enters a turnpike 22 miles north of the town. The car travels north at an average speed of 60 miles per hour. How far is t

QveST [7]

Answer:

y = 60x + 22

262 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the car enters the turnpike at 22 miles, his initial starting point, or initial value (b) is 22. You also know the rate at which the car travels is 60 miles per hour, which is the slope (m). Using the slope-intercept formula of a linear function: y = mx + b, you can plug in your initial value and rate:

y = 60x + 22, where y = the total miles and x = the number of hours traveled

After 4 hours:

y = 60(4) + 22 = 240 + 22 = 262 miles

Put these points into an equation IN STANDARD FORM!!!!!!<br><br>(0,2) and (8,0)

zubka84 [21]

The equation of the line in standard form is x + 4y = 8

<h3>How to determine the line equation?</h3>

From the question, the points are given as

(0, 2) and (8, 0)

To start with, we must calculate the slope of the line

This is calculated using

Slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

Where

(x, y) = (0, 2) and (8, 0)

Substitute the known parameters in Slope = (y₂ - y₁)/(x₂ - x₁)

So, we have

Slope = (0 - 2)/(8 - 0)

Evaluate

Slope = -1/4

The equation of the line can be calculated using as

y - y₁ = m(x + x₁)

Where

(x₁, y₁) = (0, 2)

and

m = slope = -1/4

Substitute the known values in the above equation

So, we have the following equation

y - 2 = -1/4(x - 0)

This gives

y - 2 = -1/4x

Rewrite as

1/4x + y = 2

Multiply by 4

x + 4y = 8

Hence, the line has an equation of x + 4y = 8
