Answer:

Answer: 5/12 or approx. 0.42

Step-by-step explanation:

The ball will displace as much water as its volume.

Meaning, the volume of the ball and the volume of the increase in water in the barrel will be equal.

Volume of a sphere:

V_s=\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3

The radius is half the diameter. The diameter of the sphere is 10, thus:

r = d/2 = 10/2 = 5

5^3 = 5*5*5 = 25*5 = 125

V_s=\frac{4}{3} \pi * 5^3=\frac{4}{3} \pi * 125

The volume of a cylinder, which will be the shape of the increase in water, is the following:

V_c=\pi r^2 h

We know the radius r, as we know the diameter.

r=d/2=40/2=20

V_c=\pi r^2 h=\pi h * 20^2 = \pi h * 400

We are looking for the height of the cylinder, h, as that will be the height of the water rise.

Since we know these 2 volumes are the same, we'll set them equal to each other and solve the equation:

V_s = V_c

\frac{4}{3} * 125 * \pi = 400 * h * \pi

We can get rid of pi by dividing both sides by pi:

\frac{4}{3} * 125 = 400 * h

And now divide both sides by 400:

\frac{4}{3} * \frac{125}{400}= h

Just reversing it and putting h to the left:

h = \frac{4}{3} * \frac{125}{400} = \frac{4 * 125}{3 * 400}

I see that I can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 4:

h =\frac{125}{3 * 100}= \frac{125}{300}

I'll now divide both the numerator and the denominator by 25 to simplify the expression:

h=\frac{125}{300} =\frac{125 / 25}{300 / 25} = \frac{5}{12}

Answer: The water rises by 5/12 (five twelfths).

If I want an approximate decimal answer, I can simply run this expression in a calculator:

\frac{5}{12} ≈ 0.416666667 ≈ 0.42

Amanda [17]

Answer:

t=\frac{33.9-36}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{22}}}=-2.402    

df = n-1= 22-1=21

t_{\alpha/2}= -2.08

Since the calculated values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 2.5% and we can say that the true mean is lower than 36 years old

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given

\bar X=33.9 represent the sample mean

s=4.1 represent the sample standard deviation

n=22 sample size  

\mu_o =26 represent the value that we want to test

\alpha=0.025 represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)  

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)  

System of hypothesis

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if the true mean is less than 36 years old, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:\mu \geq 36  

Alternative hypothesis:\mu < 36  

The statistic is given by:

t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}  (1)  

And replacing we got:

t=\frac{33.9-36}{\frac{4.1}{\sqrt{22}}}=-2.402    

Now we can calculate the critical value but first we need to find the degreed of freedom:

df = n-1= 22-1=21

So we need to find a critical value in the t distribution with df =21 who accumulates 0.025 of the area in the left and we got:

t_{\alpha/2}= -2.08

Since the calculated values is lower than the critical value we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis at the significance level of 2.5% and we can say that the true mean is lower than 36 years old
