An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 47.2 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted t

o test the actual MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 47.0. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 1.9. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to two decimal places.

Answer:

Test statistic = 1.664

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis :

H0 : μ = 47.2

H1 : μ ≠ 47.2

Given that :

Sample mean, xbar = 47

Sample size, n = 250

Standard deviation, σ = 1.9

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ (σ/√(n))

T = (47 - 47.2) ÷ (1.9/√(250))

T = (0.2 / 0.1201665)

Test statistic = 1.664

masha68 [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a rectangle is constructed with its base on the x axis and two of its vertices on the parabola

y=100-x^2

This parabola has vertex at (0,100) and symmetrical about y axis.

Any general point above x axis can be written as (a,b) (-a,b) since symmetrical about yaxis.  

Hence coordinates of any rectangle are

(a,0) (-a,0), (a, 100-a^2), (-a, 100-a^2)

Length of rectangle = 2a and width = 100-a^2

Area of rectangle = lw = 2a(100-a^2)=200a-400a^3

To find max area, use derivative test.

A' = 200-800a^2\\A"=-1600a

Hence maxima when first derivative =0

i.e. when a =2

Thus we find dimensions of the rectangle are l =4 and w = 96

Maximum area = 4(96) = 384

a silkworm winds its cocoon out of one long silk fiber. to make silk thread, 3 to 10 of these silk fibers are unwound from their
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the silk fiber = x yards.

Let the number of silk fibres = a.

It is given that the silk fibers between 3 to 10 yards are combined to form a silk thread of 300 yards.

So, we get the equation,

ax=300, where 3\leq a\leq 10

i.e. x=\frac{300}{a}, 3\leq a\leq 10

So, the possible values of 'a' are 3, 4, 5, 6 an 10.

Thus, the possible lengths of the silk fibre 'x' are 100, 75, 60, 50 and 30 yards respectively.
