A theory predicts that the mean age of stars within a particular type of star cluster is 3.3 billion years, with a standard devi

Luden [163]

Answer:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 3.3$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 3.3$

$z=\frac{3.4-3.3}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{50}}}=1.768$

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z>1.768)=0.039$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=3.4$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=0.4$ represent the population deviation for the sample

$n=50$ sample size

$\mu_o =3.3$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is higher than 3.3, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \leq 3.3$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu > 3.3$

Compute the test statistic

We know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a z test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$z=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

z-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$z=\frac{3.4-3.3}{\frac{0.4}{\sqrt{50}}}=1.768$

P value

Since is a one right tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(z>1.768)=0.039$

3 tomatoes cost $1.29<br><br> How much will 5 tomatoes<br> cost?

wolverine [178]

Answer:

$2.15

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 3 Tomatoes cost $1.29

Then let's first find how much is 1 Tomatoes.

To do that we have to divide Cost by # of Tomatoes

3/1.29 = 0.43

Thus, 1 Tomatoes Cost 0.43

Now, the question is: How much will 5 tomatoes cost?

Therefore, 0.43 * 5 =2.15

Hence, 5 Tomatoes cost $2.15

What is the answer to:<br><br>3(3x-4)-2(2x-1)

Tamiku [17]

Answer:

= 5x -10

Step-by-step explanation:

=(3)(3x)+(3)(−4)+(−2)(2x)+(−2)(−1)

=9x+−12+−4x+2

Combine Like Terms:

=9x+−12+−4x+2

=(9x+−4x)+(−12+2)

=5x+−10

What is the rule if the input is 17 18 _28 40 and the output numbers are 57 56 54_ 34

Mama L [17]

Your answer would be.........................................
A function is when one variable or term depends on another according to a rule. There is a special relationship between the two variables of the function where each value in the input applies to only one value in the output. These rules are called function rules<span>, because they explain how the function operates.
