Answer:(x+2)(3x-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x^2 +4x-4

AC method

_×_= ac=-12

_+_=b = 4

6 and -2

But because a is multiplied by 3 you need to divide both by 3 so 6/3 is 2 and because you can not divide -2 by three you move the 3 back to the x and leave it as (3x-2)

To help consumers assess the risks they are taking, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) publishes the amount of nicotine foun

QveST [7]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean nicotine content is less than 31.7 milligrams for this brand of cigarette.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 31.7 milligrams

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 28.5 milligrams

Sample size, n = 9

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 2.8 milligrams

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 31.7\text{ milligrams}\\H_A: \mu < 31.7\text{ milligrams}$

We use One-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.

Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{28.5 - 31.7}{\frac{2.8}{\sqrt{9}} } = -3.429$

Now, $t_{critical} \text{ at 0.05 level of significance, 8 degree of freedom } = -1.860$

Since,

$t_{stat} < t_{critical}$

We fail to accept the null hypothesis and accept the alternate hypothesis. We conclude that the mean nicotine content is less than 31.7 milligrams for this brand of cigarette.
