Answer:
H0: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days
Ha: The new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 or more than 30 days.
If fail to reject H0 (the null hypothesis), the conclusion is that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.
Step-by-step explanation:
The null hypothesis is a statement from a population parameter which is either rejected or accepted (fail to reject) upon testing. It is expressed using the equality sign.
The alternate hypothesis is also a statement from a population parameter which negates the null hypothesis and is accepted if the null hypothesis is rejected. It is expressed using any of the inequality signs.
The test is a two-tailed test because the alternate hypothesis is expressed using more than or equal to.
If I fail to reject H0, it means the test statistic falls within the region bounded by the critical values.
It would therefore be concluded that the new cancer drug increases the mean survival time by 30 days.
We want to get x by itself
First we will multiply both sides by 6 to cancel out the 6 on the left
5x = 120
We then divide by 5 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 24
Answer:
19
Step-by-step explanation:
The triangle inequality tells you the possible values of x are ...
24 -10 < x < 24 +10
14 < x < 34
There are 19 integer values of x in this range.
