Represent Age of Time Traveler =========> X

Solve:

x = 3(x - 20 )


Step 1: Simplify Both sides of equation:

x = 3(x - 20 )

x = (3) (x) + (3) ( - 20 ) (Distribute ):

x = 3x + - 60

x = 3x - 60


Step 2: Subtract 3x from both sides:

x - 3x = 3x - 60 - 3x

- 2x = - 60


Step 3: Divide both sides by -2:

- 2x / - 2 = - 60 / - 2

x = 30



Answer: Our Time Traveler is 30 years old.




Hope that helps : )

At 13% significance level, there isn't enough evidence to prove the administrators to claim that the mean score for the​ state's eighth graders on this exam is more than 280.

<h3>How to state hypothesis conclusion?</h3>

We are given;

Sample size; n = 78

population standard deviation σ = 37

Sample Mean; x' = 280

Population mean; μ = 287

The school administrator declares that mean score is more (bigger than) 280. Thus, the hypotheses is stated as;

Null hypothesis; H₀: μ > 280

Alternative hypothesis; Hₐ: μ < 280

This is a one tail test with significance level of α  = 0.13

From online tables, the critical value at α  = 0.13 is z(c) = -1.13

b) Formula for the test statistic is;

z = (x-  μ)/(σ/√n)

z = ((280 - 287) *√78 )/37

z = -1.67

c) From online p-value from z-score calculator, we have;

P[ z > 280 ] =  0.048

d) The value for z = -1.67  is smaller than the critical value mentioned in problem statement z(c) = - 1.13  , the z(s) is in the rejection zone. Therefore we reject H₀

e) We conclude that at 13% significance level, there isn't enough evidence to prove the administrators to claim that the mean score for the​ state's eighth graders on this exam is more than 280.
