Answer:

a) Confidence interval 95% = Mean ±Margin of error

= (-1.7974, 2.7026)

b) since 3 is not contained in the interval, we reject null hypothesis.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ms. Fitness-Buff, a high school gym teacher, wants to propose an after-school fitness program. To get an idea of the fitness level of the students at her school, she takes a random sample of 75 students and records the number of hours the students exercised in the past week. Her sample mean is 2.25 hours and she knows from past research that the population standard deviation is 2 hours.

She wants to know if this varies from a population mean of 3 hours/week.

H_0: \bar x = 3\\H_a: \bar x\neq 3

(Two tailed test at 5% significance level)

Sample mean = 2.25 hours

Since sigma is known, we use Z critical value for 95% i.e. 1.96

Margin of error = 1.96*\frac{2}{\sqrt{75} } \\=0.4526

a) Confidence interval 95% = Mean ±Margin of error

= (-1.7974, 2.7026)

b) since 3 is not contained in the interval, we reject null hypothesis.

Answer:

8 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{h1}{2ft} =\frac{h2}{3ft} \\\\

area of ABC is:

A= \frac{(3ft)(h2)}{2}

area of ABC is 18 square ft, then

h2 = \frac{(area)(2)}{3ft} = \frac{(18 ft^2)(2)}{3ft} =12ft

now you can find h1 and the area for EFG

The figure shows a large triangle divided into two smaller triangles what is the value of x in the figure
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the other missing angle, which is supplementary to 100 first.

Supplementary angels are a sum of 180

The missing angle is 180-100 = 80

Now use that to find missing angle x

All angles in the triangle have a sum of 180

180 = 60+80+x

180-60-80=x

40 = x

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2-gallon bucket. How much more water can be added to reach the bucket's 2-g
Romashka [77]

Answer: 3 quart

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Jason poured 1 gallon 1 quart of water into an empty 2 gallon bucket

1 gallon can be written as 4 quart

So, 2 gallon can be written as 8 quart

Subtract 1 gallon 1 quart(5 quart) from 2 gallon(8 quart) to get the volume added

\Rightarrow 8-5\\\Rightarrow 3\ \text{quart}

So, 3 quart of water must be added to reach 2 gallon capacity.

-5x^2-6=-4x using the Quadratic Formula.
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

-5x² - 6 = -4x

-5x² + 4x - 6 = 0

a = -5  ; b = 4  ; c = -6

Discriminant = b² - 4ac

                     = 4² - 4*(-5)*(-6)

                     = 16 - 120

                     = -104

roots = \dfrac{-b+\sqrt{D}}{2a} \ ; \   \dfrac{-b-\sqrt{D}}{2a}

=\dfrac{-4+\sqrt{-104}}{2*(-5)};\dfrac{-4-\sqrt{-104}}{2*(-5)}\\\\=\dfrac{-4+2i\sqrt{26}}{-10} ; \dfrac{-4-2i\sqrt{26}}{-10}\\\\=\dfrac{(-2)[2-i\sqrt{26}]}{-10} \ ; \ \dfrac{(-2)[2+i\sqrt{26}]}{-10}\\\\=\dfrac{2-i\sqrt{26}}{5} \ ; \ \dfrac{2+i\sqrt{26}}{5}
