Suppose that the quality control manager for a cereal manufacturer wants to ensure that bags of cereal are being filled correctl

y. The equipment is calibrated to fill bags with a mean of 17 oz of cereal with a standard deviation of 0.2 oz. The quality control inspector selects a random sample of 52 boxes and finds that the mean amount of cereal for these boxes is 17.04 oz. He uses this data to conduct a one-sample z ‑test with a null hypothesis of H 0 : μ = 17 against the alternative hypothesis H 1 : μ ≠ 17 , where μ is the mean amount of cereal in each box. He calculates a z ‑score of 1.44 and a P -value of 0.1499 .
Are these results statistically significant at a significance level of 0.05?
No, these results are not statistically significant because p>0.05,
No, these results are not statistically significant because p < 0.05.
Yes, these results are statistically significant because p < 0.05.
Yes, these results are statistically significant because p > 0.05.

Answer: No, these results are not statistically significant because

p > 0.05

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis is

H0 : μ = 17

The alternative hypothesis is

H 1 : μ ≠ 17

where μ is the mean amount of cereal in each box.

The p value that he got is 0.1499. This is greater than alpha = 0.05 which is the given level of significance.

If the level of significance is lesser than the p value, we would accept the null hypothesis.

Therefore, the correct option is

No, these results are not statistically significant because p>0.05

Answer:

B) 4

Step-by-step explanation:

There is an outbuilding that has an area of 80 square feet. The rectangle on the blueprint that represents the outbuilding has an area of 20 square inches. If the actual outbuilding has a wall length of 10 feet, what is the length of that wall on the blueprint . A) 3 B) 4 C) 5 D) 6

The length of the wall on the blue print can be calculated as:

20 square feet ÷ 5

= 4 feet

What is the inverse of the function below?<br><br> f(x) = 2^x + 6
Helen [10]

The inverse of this function would be f(x) = \frac{Log(x - 6)}{Log2}.



You can find the value of any inverse function by switching the f(x) and the x value. Then you can solve for the new f(x) value. The end result will be your new inverse function. The step-by-step process is below.



f(x) = 2^{x} - 6 ----> Switch f(x) and x



x = 2^{f(x)} - 6 ----> Add 6 to both sides



x + 6 = 2^{f(x)} -----> Take the logarithm of both sides in order to get the f(x) out of the exponent



Log(x + 6) = f(x)Log2 ----> Now divide both sides by Log2



\frac{Log(x + 6)}{Log2} = f(x) ----> And switch the order for formatting purposes.



f(x) = \frac{Log(x + 6)}{Log2}



And that would be your new inverse function.

A student solved 6x+4=2(x−8) in four steps as shown:
mr_godi [17]
The first thing you should do is solve the equation yourself.

1) Distribute the 2.  
6x + 4 = 2x – 16

2) Next, you'll want to get the x's on one side. So add -2x to both sides.
6x + 4 + -2x = 2x + -2x - 16
4x + 4 = -16

3) Now subtract 4 from both sides
4x + 4 – 4 = -16 – 4
4x = -12

4) Finally, divide both sides by 4
4x/4 = -12/4
x = –3

To solve this problem all you need to do is look back out you work, and figure out the correct solution. The answer the question is The student made an error in Step 1.
