Answer:

405

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use a ratio to solve

3 infected           x infected

------------------ = ----------------

50 sampled     6750 population

Using cross products

3*6750 = 50x

Divide each side by 50

3*6750/50 = x

Kay [80]

Solution :

The normal body temperature of any human body is considered to be 98.6$^\circ \ F$. But there is a constant debate about the body temperature of a long held standard to the body temperature.

It is given that :

Null hypothesis and alternate hypothesis :

$H_0 : \mu = 98.6$

And $H_A : \mu > 98.6$

n is given as = 180

Test statistics = 3.64

Prove = 0.018 < α = 0.05 (let reject null hypothesis for α = 0.05 )

Therefore, their results are statistically significant and the result is unlikely due to chance alone.
