Answer:
e. The probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less, or of 5.29 or more, is 0.018 if the true mean is 5.2.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have a two-tailed one sample t-test.
The null hypothesis claims that the pH is not significantly different from 5.2.
The alternative hypothesis is that the mean pH is significantly different from 5.2.
The sample mean pH is 5.11, with a sample size of n=50.
The P-value of the test is 0.018.
This P-value corresponds to the probability of observing a sample mean of 5.11 or less, given that the population is defined by the null hypothesis (mean=5.2).
As this test is two-tailed, it also includes the probability of the other tail. That is the probability of observing a sample with mean 5.29 or more (0.09 or more from the population mean).
Then, we can say that, if the true mean is 5.2, there is a probability P=0.018 of observing a sample of size n=50 with a sample mean with a difference bigger than 0.09 from the population mean of the null hypothesis (5.11 or less or 5.29 or more).
The right answer is e.
1/2 : 1
2 : 4
3 : 6
Notice that every ratio consists of a number and double the number.
For 1/2 cup lemon juice, use 1 cup sugar.
The amount of sugar is twice the amount of lemon juice.
The ratio is 1:2
Since you are told the ratio is 1:r, that means r is 2.
The unit rate is 2 cups sugar per cup of lemon juice.
The correct answer is 18 sides.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Here, the first term is .48 and the common ratio is 1/100 (since each new 48 is 1/100 th of the previous 48). a
Use the formula s = sum of geometric series = -----------
1 - r
0.48 48
which in this case is s = --------------- = ------------ = 48/99 = 16/33
1 - 1/100 100 - 1
Check this result by finding 16/33 on a calculator. Is the result equal to 0.484848484848.... ? Yes
b) Here we have the bar over the 8 only. 0.48 with the bar over the 8 is equivalent to 0.4888888888 ...
0.08
or 0.4 + 0.0888888888 ... or 0.4 + ------------
1 - 1/10
0.08 8
and this simplifies to 0.4 + ------------ = 0.4 + ---------
9/10 90
Evaluating this last result on a calculator results in 0.488888888 ...
c) 0.48 expressed as a fraction is 48/100 = 12/25
Answer:
It takes 1.77 hours for the population to double.
Step-by-step explanation:
Equation for population growth:
The equation for population growth, after t hours, with a growth rate parameter of r, as a decimal, is given by:
Growth rato parameter of 48% per hour
This means that 
. So
How many hours does it take the size of the sample to double?
This is t for which P(t) = 2P(0). So
It takes 1.77 hours for the population to double.
