Answer:
Work Shown:
Explanation:
As the steps above show, the goal is to factor the expression under the root in terms of pulling out cubed terms. That way when we apply the cube root to them, the exponents cancel. We cannot factor the y term completely, so we have a bit of leftovers.
Answer:
We conclude that the plant should shut down.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following in the question:
Population mean, μ = 60
Sample mean, = 61.498
Sample size, n = 100
Alpha, α = 0.05
Population standard deviation, σ = 6
a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis such that the power plant will be shut down when the null hypothesis is rejected.
We use One-tailed(right) z test to perform this hypothesis.
b) Formula:
Putting all the values, we have
Now,
Since,
We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.
Calculating the p-value from the z-table:
P-value = 0.0063
Since,
P-value < Significance level
We reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. Thus, the temperature of waste water discharged is greater than 60°F. We conclude that the power plant will shut down.
