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

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

=17

Step-by-step explanation:

We need the slope and the y-intercept to find the equation of the linear model.

This line goes through (0,28) and (1,26), so the slope is

\frac{26 - 28}{1} = -2

1

26−28

​  =−2

The equation that best describes this model is

\widehat{y} = -2x + 28

y

​  =−2x+28

Plug in x = 5.5 in the above equation to get

​\widehat{y}

y

​   ​=−2x+28

=(−2)(5.5)+28

=−11+28

=17

Based on this equation, the date in April her flowers will bloom if the average temperature in March is

Solve for the missing piece. Round answer to the nearest tenth when necessary.
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

21.0

Step-by-step explanation:

SOHCAHTOA

In this case you would be using TOA

tan (x) = opposite/ adjacent

tan (51) = x / 17

x = 17 tan (51)

x = 20.9932

x= 21.0

Please assist me with the trapezoid problems​
White raven [17]

Problem 4

a)

MR = AG is a true statement because MARG is an isosceles trapezoid. The diagonals of any isosceles trapezoid are always the same length.

-------------------------

b)

MA = GR is false. Parallel sides in a trapezoid are never congruent (otherwise you'll have a parallelogram).

-------------------------

c)

MR and AG do NOT bisect each other. The diagonals bisect each other only if you had a parallelogram.

=================================================

Problem 5

a)

LC = AJ (nonparallel sides of isosceles trapezoid are always the same length)

x^2 = 25

x = sqrt(25)

<h3>x = 5</h3>

-------------------------

b)

LU = 25

UC = 25 because point U cuts LC in half

LC = LU+UC = 25+25 = 50

AJ = LC = 50 (nonparallel sides of isosceles trapezoid are always the same length)

AS = (1/2)*AJ

AS = (1/2)*50

<h3>AS = 25</h3>

-------------------------

c)

angle LCA = 71

angle CAJ = 71 (base angles of isosceles trapezoid are always congruent)

(angleAJL)+(angleCAJ) = 180

(angleAJL)+(71) = 180

angle AJL = 180-71

<h3>angle AJL = 109 </h3>

How many ways can 12 swimmers finish in first , second, and third place?
Burka [1]

Answer:

1320

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using something called a permutation. There are 12 possible swimmers that can be in first place. After that, there are 11 swimmers left to be in second place. Finally there are 10 swimmers left for third place. Multiplying these together, you get 12*11*10=1320 ways. Hope this helps!
