The population of a city is 451,400. The population is expected to decrease at a rate of 3.2% each year.
blondinia [14]

Answer:

Find out the what function equation represents the population of the city after t years .

To prove

The population of a city is 451,400. The population is expected to decrease at a rate of 3.2% each year.

This can be represented by exponential decreasing function.

f(t) = a (1 - r)^{t}

Where a is the initial value.

r is the rate in decimal form

t is the time.

Here

a = 451,400

3.2 % is written in the decimal form.

= \frac{3.2}{100}

= 0.032

Put in the formula

f(t) = 451400 (1 - 0.032)^{t}

f(t) = 451400 (0.968)^{t}

Therefore the decrease in the population of the city after t years is represented by

f(t) = 451400 (0.968)^{t}

Hypothesis Testing for Means with Small Samples
Scorpion4ik [409]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

The variable of interest is

X: volume of root beer in a Windsor Bottling Company can.

A sample of n=24 cans was taken and their contents measured, resulting:

X[bar]= 11.4 oz

S= 0.62 oz

Assuming that the variable has a normal distribution X~N(μ;σ²), the parameter of interest is the average contents of the root beer cans of the Windsor Bottling Company (μ)

The claim is that the population mean content of the cans is different from 12 oz, symbolically: μ ≠ 12

The statistical hypothesis (Null and alternative) have to be complementary, exhaustive and mutually exclusive. The null hypothesis is the "no change" hypothesis and always carries the "=" sign.

If the claim is μ ≠ 12, its complement is μ = 12, the expression carrying the "=" sign will be the null hypothesis and its complement will be the alternative hypothesis:

H₀: μ = 12

H₁: μ ≠ 12

α: 0.05

To test the population mean of this normal population, you have to apply a one sample t-test, with statistic:

t= \frac{X[bar]-Mu}{\frac{S}{\sqrt{n} } } ~t_{n-1}

t_{H_0}= \frac{11.4-12}{\frac{0.62}{\sqrt{24} } } = -4.74

This test is two-tailed, using the critical value approach, you have to determine two rejection regions. Meaning, you'll reject the null hypothesis to small values of the statistic or to high values of the statistic.

t_{n-1;\alpha /2}= t_{23;0.025}= -2.069

t_{n-1;1-\alpha /2}= t_{23;0.975}= 2.069

The decision rule is:

If t_{H_0} ≤ -2.069 or if t_{H_0} ≥ 2.069, then you reject the null hypothesis.

If -2.069 < t_{H_0} < 2.069, then you do not reject the null hypothesis.

The value is less than the left critical value, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Then you can say that with a 5% significance level, there is significant evidence to reject the null hypothesis, then the average amount of root beer of the Windsor Bottling Company is different from 12 oz, this means that the claim about the amount of root beer in the cans is correct.

I hope it helps!

in a box of chocolates, 1/5 of the chocolates contain nuts. the rest of the chocolates do not contain nuts. write down the ratio
valina [46]

Answer:

The ratio of the number of chocolates that contain nuts to the number of chocolates = 1:4

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

Proportion of the box of chocolates that contain nuts = 1/5

Proportion of the box of chocolates that do not contain nuts = 1 - 1/5 = 4/5

Therefore, we have in a box of chocolates with five chocolates;

The number of chocolates that contain nuts = 1

The number of chocolates that do not contain nuts = 4

Which gives the ratio of the number of chocolates that contain nuts to the number of chocolates as 1:4.

This pencil cup is made out of plastic. It is 5 inches tall and has a radius of 1.75 inches. How many square inches of plastic w
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

To make the cup 64.57 square inches of plastic were used.

Step-by-step explanation:

A cup has the format of a cylinder with a open top. The surface area of the cup is given by the area of it's base (a circle) and the area of it's walls, wich can be seen as rectangle where the width is the length of the circle at the base and the height is the height of the cylinder. So we have:

area of the base = pi*r^2 = 3.14*(1.75)^2 = 3.14*3.0625 = 9.616 square inches

area of the walls = 2*pi*r*h = 2*3.14*(1.75)*5 = 54.95 square inches

surface area of the cup = area of the base + area of the walls = 9.616 + 54.95

surface area of the cup = 64.57 square inches

To make the cup 64.57 square inches of plastic were used.
