Answer:

14 is the smallest

Step-by-step explanation:

x= the smallest number

x+x+2 +x+4 = 48

3x +6 = 48

3x =42

x= 14

14, 16, 18

Another way to find the middle number 48/3 = 16

Data is collected to compare two different types of batteries. We measure the time to failure of 12 batteries of each type. Batt

-Dominant- [34]

Using the t-distribution, it is found that since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that Battery B outlasts Battery A by more than 2 hours.

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if it does not outlast by more than 2 hours, that is, the subtraction is not more than 2:

$H_0: \mu_B - mu_A \leq 2$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if it outlasts by more than 2 hours, that is:

$H_1: \mu_B - \mu_A > 2$

The sample means are: $\mu_A = 8.65, \mu_B = 11.23$

The standard deviations for the samples are $s_A = s_B = 0.67$

Hence, the standard errors are:

$s_{Ea} = S_{Eb} = \frac{0.67}{\sqrt{12}} = 0.1934$

The distribution of the difference has mean and standard deviation given by:

$\overline{x} = \mu_B - \mu_A = 11.23 - 8.65 = 2.58$

$s = \sqrt{s_{Ea}^2 + s_{Eb}^2} = \sqrt{0.1934^2 + 0.1934^2} = 0.2735$

The test statistic is given by:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}$

In which $\mu = 2$ is the value tested at the hypothesis.

Hence:

$t = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{s}$

$t = \frac{2.58 - 2}{0.2735}$

$t = 2.12$

The critical value for a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the subtraction is greater than a value, with a 0.05 significance level and 12 + 12 - 2 = 22 df is given by $t^{\ast} = 1.71$

Since the test statistic is greater than the critical value for the right-tailed test, it is found that there is enough evidence to conclude that Battery B outlasts Battery A by more than 2 hours.

3500ca = 1fp

MAXImum [283]

Answer: 1fp = 525 minutes

35fp = 18,375 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve this using conversions

$\dfrac{30\ minutes}{200\ ca } \times \dfrac{3500\ ca}{1\ fp}= 525\ minutes\ per\ fp$

For 35 fp, multiply 35 fp by 525 minutes per 1 fp = 18,375

Randi earned a profit of $60.00 on her last snow shoveling and salting job. Write an equation that can be solved to find how man

notka56 [123]

Answer:

Profit earned by Randi on her last snow shoveling and salting job= $ 60

Let number of hours spent by Randi on that day while working as a shoveler and salter = x hours

Writing the statement in terms of inequality

→ Number of hours worked= Amount of profit earned

→ x=60

→If profit is less than $60.00, then Number of hours will be less.

→If Profit is more i.e greater than $60.00, Number of hours will be more.
