The time needed for all college students to complete a certain paper-and-pencil maze follows a normal distribution with a popula

tion mean of 30 seconds and a population standard deviation of 3 seconds.
You wish to see if the mean time μ (where μ stands for population mean) is changed by vigorous exercise, so you have a group of nine college students exercise vigorously for 30 minutes and then complete the maze. It takes them an sample average of 31.2 seconds to complete the maze. Use this information to test the hypotheses:

H0: μ = 30,

Ha: ≠30

at the significance level of 0.01.

You conclude:


a) There is not enough evidence to support the claim.

b) There is enough evidence to support the claim.

Answer:

The correct option is a

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  \mu = 30\ seconds

    The standard deviation is  \sigma = 3 \ seconds

     The sample size is  n  = 9

    The null hypothesis is H_o: \mu  = 30

     The alternative hypothesis is  H_a  :  \mu \ne 30

    The level of significance is  \alpha = 0.01

    The sample mean is  \= x = 31.2

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

      z = \frac{ \= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }

=>   z = \frac{ 31.2 - 30}{ \frac{3}{\sqrt{9} } }

=>   z = 1.2

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to  1.2  is    

         P(Z >  1.2) =  0.11507

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

         p-value = 2 * P(Z >  1.2)

=>       p-value = 2 *0.11507

=>       p-value = 0.230

From the value obtained w can see that

         p-value  > \alpha hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is there is not enough evidence to support the claim

What is the radius of a sphere with a volume of 4.5π cubic centimeters?
Snowcat [4.5K]
V=(4/3)pir^3
4.5pi=(4/3)pir^3
divide both sides by pi
4.5=(4/3)r^3
times 3/4 both sides
3.375=r^3
cube root both sides
1.5=r
radius is 1.5cm

Divide £72 into the ratio 4 : 5.
algol13

Answer:

£32 : £40

Step-by-step explanation:

sum the parts of the ratio, 4 + 5 = 9 parts

Divide the amount by 9 to find the value of one part of the ratio

£72 ÷ 9 = £8 ← value of 1 part of the ratio, then

4 parts = 4 × £8 = £32

5 parts = 5 × £8 = £40

Then

£72 in the ratio 4 : 5 is £32 : £40

In the graphic below,

The external angle is suplementary to the internal angle close to it. We also know that the sum of all the internal angles of the triangle are equal to 180 degrees, this means that the angle "a" is suplementary to the sum of the angles "b" and "c". Through this logic, we can conclude that since:

\begin{gathered} \angle d=180-\angle a \\ \angle b+\angle c=180-\angle a \end{gathered}

Then we can conclude that:

\angle d=\angle b+\angle c

Therefore the statement is true, the exterior angle is equal to the sum of its remote interior angles.

Let's use an example:

On this example, the external angle is 120 degrees, therefore the sum of the remote interior angles must also be equal to that. Let's try:

x=75+45=120

The sum of the remote interior angles is equal to the external angle.
