A recent study suggested that 81% of senior citizens take at least one prescription medication. Amelia is a nurse at a large hos

pital who would like to know whether the percentage is the same for senior citizen patients who go to her hospital. She randomly selects 59 senior citizens patients who were treated at the hospital and finds that 49 of them take at least one prescription medication.

Null hypothesis: p = 0.81

Alternative hypothesis: p \ne 0.81

The null is based on a recent study that 81% of the population (in this case senior citizens) takes at least one medication. The alternative hypothesis is basically the flip of the claim made in the null.

If Amelia wanted to know if the percentage was less than 81%, then the alternative would be p < 0.81

If Amelia wanted to know if the percentage was larger than 81%, then the alternative would be p > 0.81

However, she wants to know if the percentage is 81%.

The question is missing the figure which is attached below.

Answer:

The last box that has dimensions 8 in × 8 in × 10 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Volume of the soil = 924 cubic inches.

There are four different types of boxes that need to be checked whether they can accommodate all of the soil or not.

The volume of the box must be at least 924 cubic inches to accommodate all of the soil.

Now, volume of the first box is given as:

V_1=l\times b\times h=20\times 5\times 10=1000\ in^3>924\ in^3

Volume of the second box is given as:

V_2=l\times b\times h=10\times 10\times 10=1000\ in^3>924\ in^3

Volume of the third box is given as:

V_3=l\times b\times h=10\times 20\times 6=1200\ in^3>924\ in^3

Volume of the fourth box is given as:

V_4=l\times b\times h=8\times 8\times 10=640\ in^3

Therefore, only the volume of the fourth box is less than the total volume of the soil. So, last box is the correct option.
