A lab technician is tested for her consistency by making multiple measurements of the cholesterol level in one blood sample. The

target precision is a standard deviation of 1.2 mg/dL or less. If 12 measurements are taken and the standard deviation is 1.8 mg/dL, is there enough evidence to support the claim that her standard deviation is greater than the target, at = .01? (Show the answers to all 5 steps of the hypothesis test.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given precision is a standard deviation of s=1.8, n=12,  target precision is a standard deviation of σ=1.2

The test hypothesis is

H_o:σ <=1.2

Ha:σ > 1.2

The test statistic is

chi square = \frac{(n-1)s^2}{\sigma^2}

=\frac{(12-1)1.8^2}{1.2^2}

=24.75

Given a=0.01, the critical value is chi square(with a=0.01, d_f=n-1=11)= 3.05 (check chi square table)

Since 24.75 > 3.05, we reject H_o.

So, we can conclude that her standard deviation is greater than the target.

Tony will be x because they are comparing Mauricio to Tony so 4x+20 so then we know x=4 because it says Tony’s hits 4 balls on Saturday so 4x4+20 = 16+20= 36 balls hit by Mauricia

Use the lim f(x)-f(a)/x-a to find the derivative.
Tresset [83]
Hello,

f(x)-f(a)= -3x²-5x+1-(-3a²-5a+1)=-3(x²-a²)-5(x-a)=-3(x-a)(x+a)-5(x-a)
=-(x-a)(3(x+a)+5)
=-(x-a)(3x+3a+5)

lim (f(x)-f(a))/(x-a)=- lim (3x+3a+5)=3a+3a+5=-6a-5
if a=1==>-6*1-5=-11

Otherwise
f'(x)=-6x-5
f'(1)=-6-5=-11
