Answer:

12/30

Step-by-step explanation:

So we know that the denominator-numerator=18

And we also know that it's equal to 4/10 or 2/5.

Soooooooooooooo the most easiest is just to trial and error: 12/30

But I don't really know the more complex formula...

The time needed for all college students to complete a certain paper-and-pencil maze follows a normal distribution with a popula
oee [108]

Answer:

The correct option is a

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  \mu = 30\ seconds

    The standard deviation is  \sigma = 3 \ seconds

     The sample size is  n  = 9

    The null hypothesis is H_o: \mu  = 30

     The alternative hypothesis is  H_a  :  \mu \ne 30

    The level of significance is  \alpha = 0.01

    The sample mean is  \= x = 31.2

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

      z = \frac{ \= x - \mu }{ \frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n} } }

=>   z = \frac{ 31.2 - 30}{ \frac{3}{\sqrt{9} } }

=>   z = 1.2

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to  1.2  is    

         P(Z >  1.2) =  0.11507

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

         p-value = 2 * P(Z >  1.2)

=>       p-value = 2 *0.11507

=>       p-value = 0.230

From the value obtained w can see that

         p-value  > \alpha hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is there is not enough evidence to support the claim
