The recommended daily dietary allowance for zinc among males older than age 50 years is 15 mg/day. The article "Nutrient Intakes

and Dietary Patterns of Older Americans: A National Study" (J. of Gerontology, 1992: M145–150) reports the following summary data on intake for a sample of males age 65–74 years: n=115, barx =11.3, and s=6.43. Does this data indicate that average daily zinc intake in the population of all males ageing 65–74 falls below the recommended allowance?
A. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
B. Calculate the test statistic
C. Define the rejection region at ?=0.05.
D. Make a decision about the test and interpret.
E. Find the p-value corresponding to the test and based on which make a decision about the test. (The decision should be the same with D.)

Answer:

H0 : μ = 15

H1 : μ < 15

−6.170774

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

n=115, barx =11.3, and s=6.43

H0 : μ = 15

H1 : μ < 15

−0.053658 ;

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) ÷ s/sqrt(n)

(11.3 - 15) ÷ (6.43/sqrt(115))

Test statistic = −6.170774

Rejection region :

Reject Null ; if

Tstatistic < Zcritical

The P value is 0.00001 ; using the p value from Z calculator

Since,

P value < α

0.00001 < 0.05

Reject the null

An element with a mass of 550 grams decays by 18.8% per minute. To the nearest minute, how long will it be until there are 60 gr
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:  11

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential Functions:

y=ab^x

y=ab  

x

 

a=\text{starting value = }550

a=starting value = 550

r=\text{rate = }18.8\% = 0.188

r=rate = 18.8%=0.188

\text{Exponential Decay:}

Exponential Decay:

b=1-r=1-0.188=0.812

b=1−r=1−0.188=0.812

\text{Write Exponential Function:}

Write Exponential Function:

y=550(0.812)^x

y=550(0.812)  

x

 

Put it all together

\text{Plug in y-value:}

Plug in y-value:

60=550(0.812)^x

60=550(0.812)  

x

 

\frac{60}{550}=\frac{550(0.812)^x}{550}

550

60

​  

=  

550

550(0.812)  

x

 

​  

 

Divide both sides by 550

0.109091=0.812^x

0.109091=0.812  

x

 

\log 0.109091=\log 0.812^x

log0.109091=log0.812  

x

 

Take the log of both sides

\log 0.109091=x\log 0.812

log0.109091=xlog0.812

use power rule to bring x to the front

\frac{\log 0.109091}{\log 0.812}=\frac{x\log 0.812}{\log 0.812}

log0.812

log0.109091

​  

=  

log0.812

xlog0.812

​  

 

Divide both sides by log(0.812)

10.638757=x

10.638757=x

x\approx 11

x≈11
