If my phone bill is calculated using equation c= 50g +75 what is the value and interpretation of the slope of this equation? C=

cost and g= gigabytes of data used each month

Answer:

The value of the slope in this equation is 50

The interpretation is that the rate of change in the cost of the phone bill per unit change in gigabytes of data used each month is 50

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question, we need to compare the given equation with the equation of a straight line graph.

The equation we have is;

c = 50g + 75

comparing this with the equation of a straight line, we have

y = mx + c

where m represents the slope and c is the y-intercept

So comparing both, the slope of the equation is 50.

The slope is always the co-efficient of the value on the x-axis

So what does this mean?

The slope also called the gradient represents the rate of change of the y-term divided by the rate of change of the x-term. In simpler terms, when we talk of the slope, we mean the rate of change of the y term per the unit change of the x-term.

So what we mean in this case is the rate of change in cost of the phone bill per unit change in gigabytes of data used each month is 50

Consider the following hypothesis test: H 0: 20 H a: < 20 A sample of 50 provided a sample mean of 19.4. The population stand
goblinko [34]

Answer: p-value is 0.016.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

H_0:\mu=20\\\\H_a:\mu

Sample mean = 19.4

Sample size n = 50

Standard deviation = 2

We need to find the test statistic value which is given by

z=\dfrac{\bar{x}-\mu}{\dfrac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}\\\\\\z=\dfrac{19.4-20}{\dfrac{2}{\sqrt{50}}}\\\\\\z=\dfrac{-0.6}{0.28}\\\\z=-2.14

p-value is given by

P(Z>Z_{critical})\\\\=P(Z>-2.14)\\\\=0.016

Hence, p-value is 0.016.

What is the sum? 3k/k^2+k-7/4K
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

  \dfrac{k^2+5k}{4k^2}

Step-by-step explanation:

A suitable common denominator is 4k^2. (This eliminates the first and last choices.)

\dfrac{3k}{k^2}+\dfrac{k-7}{4k}=\dfrac{4(3k)}{4(k^2)}+\dfrac{k(k-7)}{k(4k)}\\\\=\dfrac{12k+k^2-7k}{4k^2}=\boxed{\dfrac{k^2+5k}{4k^2}}

A new dental bondlng agent. When bonding teeth, orthodontists must maintain a dry field. A new bonding adhesive(called "Smartbon
Gemiola [76]

Answer:

(a) <em>H</em>₀: <em>μ ≥ 5.70 </em><em>vs. </em><em>Hₐ</em>:<em>μ < 5.70</em>

(b) The rejection region is (<em>t₀.₀₁,₉</em> <em>≤ -2.821</em>).

(c) The value of the test statistic is -4.33.

(d) The true mean breaking strength of the new bonding adhesive is less than 5.70 Mpa.

Step-by-step explanation:

A hypothesis test should be conducted to determine that the if the true mean breaking strength of the new bonding adhesive is less than 5.70 Mpa.

(a)

The hypothesis is:

<em>H</em>₀: The true mean breaking strength of the new bonding adhesive is not less than 5.70 Mpa, i.e. <em>μ ≥ 5.70</em><em>.</em>

<em>Hₐ</em>: The true mean breaking strength of the new bonding adhesive is less than 5.70 Mpa, i.e. <em>μ < 5.70</em><em>.</em>

(b)

The alternate hypothesis indicates that the hypothesis test is left-tailed.

The rejection region for the left tailed test will be towards the lower tail of the t<em>-</em>distribution curve.

The significance level of the test is: <em>α</em> = 0.01.

The critical value is:

t_{\alpha ,(n-1)}=t_{0.01,(10-1)}=t_{0.01,9}

Use the <em>t-</em>table for the critical value.

t_{\alpha ,(n-1)}=t_{0.01,9}=-2.821

Since rejection region is in the lower tail the critical value will be negative.

Thus, the rejection region is (<em>t₀.₀₁,₉</em> <em>≤ -2.821</em>).

(c)

The test statistic value is:

t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}

Given:

\bar x=5.07\\s=0.46\\n=10\\\mu=5.70

Compute the value of the <em>t</em>-statistic as follows:

t=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{5.07-5.70}{0.46/\sqrt{10}} =-4.33

The value of the test statistic is -4.33.

(d)

The value of the test is less than the critical value.

t=-4.33

This implies that the test statistic lies in the rejection region.

Hence the null hypothesis will be rejected at 1% significance level.

<u>Conclusion:</u>

As the null hypothesis is rejected it can be concluded that the true mean breaking strength of the new bonding adhesive is less than 5.70 Mpa.

(e)

The conditions required for the <em>t-</em>test for single mean to be valid is:

  • The data should be continuous.
  • The parent population should be normally distributed.
  • The sample should be randomly selected.
