Of all of the individuals who develop a certain rash, suppose the mean recovery time for individuals who do not use any form of

treatment is 30 days with standard deviation equal to 8. A pharmaceutical company manufacturing a certain cream wishes to determine whether the cream shortens, extends, or has no effect on the recovery time. The company chooses a random sample of 100 individuals who have used the cream, and determines that the mean recovery time for these individuals was 28.5 days. Does the cream have any effect

Answer:

z(s) is in the rejection  region. We reject  H₀. We dont have enought evidence to support that the cream has effect over the recovery time

Step-by-step explanation:

Sample information:

Size     n = 100

mean   x = 28,5

Population information

μ₀  =  30

Standard deviation  σ   = 8

Test Hypothesis

Null Hypothesis          H₀                x =  μ₀

Alternative Hypothesis   Hₐ           x <  μ₀

We assume CI = 95 %   then α = 5 %    α = 0,05

As the alternative hypothesis suggest we should develop a one tail-test on the left ( we need to find out if the cream have any effect on the rash), effects on the rash could be measured as days of recovery

A z(c) for 0,05 from z-table is:  z(c) = - 1,64

z(s) = ( x - μ₀ ) / σ/√n

z(s) = ( 28,5 - 30 ) / 8/√100

z(s) = - 1,5 * 10 / 8

z(s) =  - 1,875

Comparing z(s)  and z(c)

|z(s)| < |z(c)|        1,875  > 1,64

z(s) is in the rejection  region. We reject  H₀. We dont have enought evidence to support that the cream has effect over the recovery time

Which table represents a direct variation function?
sineoko [7]

Answer:

Option C is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

A direct variation function is

y/x = k

i.e. we can say that the ratio of y and x is equal to a constant value k.

We will check for each Option given.

Option A

7/2 = 7/2

8/3 = 8/3

9/4 = 9/4

10/5 = 2

11/6 = 11/6

Option D is incorrect as y/x ≠ k as ratio of y/x for each value of table doesn't equal to constant

Option B

-3/2 = -3/2

-5/4 = -5/4

-6/6 = -1

-7/8 = -7/8

-8/10 = -4/5

Option B is incorrect as y/x ≠ k as ratio of y/x for each value of table doesn't equal to constant

Option C

10/-5 = -2

8/-4 = -2

6/-3 = -2

4/-2 = -2

2/-1 = -2

Option C is correct as y/x = k as ratio of y/x for each value in table c is equal to constant value -2

Option D

-3/-2 = 3/2

-3/1 = -3

-3/0 = 0

-3/1 = -3

-3/2 = -3/2

Option D is incorrect as y/x ≠ k as ratio of y/x for each value of table doesn't equal to constant .

SO, Option C is correct.

The length of a rectangle is 4 centimeters more than twice its width of the perimeter of the rectangle is 86centimeters find the
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

Width= 13 cm

length=30cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the length of the rectangle be 'L'

And the width of the rectangle be 'W'

Perimeter= 86 cm

According to the statement:

        Length= 2*Width+4\\L=2W+4

Perimeter of a rectangle= 2(Length+Width)

86=2(2W+4+W)\\86/2=3W+4\\43=3W+4\\3W=43-4\\3W=39\\W=39/3\\W=13 cm\\\\Length(L)=2W+4\\=2(13)+4=26+4=30 cm\\Length=30 cm

                               Width= 13 cm

                                length=30cm

Given f(x) = 3 and g(x) = 5x + 7, find (f + g)(-8).
levacccp [35]

Answer:

-30

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 3 so f(-8) = 3;

g(x) = 5x + 7, so g(-8) = 5(-8) + 7 = -33

Then (f + g)(-8) = 3 - 33 = -30

This is the sum of two functions both evaluated at x = -8.
