Let
be the population mean.
As per given , we have

Since the alternative hypothesis is right-tailed , so the test is a right-tailed test.
Also, population standard deviation is given
, so we perform one-tailed z-test.
Test statistic : 
, where
= Population mean
= Population standard deviation
n= sample size
= Sample mean
For n= 18 ,
,
,
, we have

P-value (for right tailed test): P(z>2.12) = 1-P(z≤ 2.12) [∵ P(Z>z)=1-P(Z≤z)]\
=1- 0.0340=0.9660
Decision : Since P-value(0.9660) > Significance level (0.01), it means we are failed to reject the null hypothesis.
[We reject null hypothesis if p-value is larger than the significance level . ]
Conclusion : We do not have sufficient evidence to show that the goal is not being met at α = .01 .
Its 37 and yea its an easy question lol
Answer:
It is, indeed, a reduction. But, the scale factor of the dilation should be a fraction instead of a whole number, since the shape has shrunk.
Instead of
, it should be
. That would make it (4 - 2) / (8 - 4) = 2 / 4 = 1/2.
Hope this helps!
Given:
The function is

(-5,n) is an ordered pair of the function rule.
To find:
The value of n.
Solution:
If (-5,n) is an ordered pair of the function rule, then the function must be satisfied by the point (-5,n). It means f(-5)=n.
Substitute x=-5 in the given function.



We know that,
. So,

Therefore, the value of n is 10.
