An orange juice manufacturer advertises a new orange juice product that contains 50% less sugar. This new product is expected to

increase profits substantially because they create the 50% less sugar product by replacing 50% of the juice with water while selling it for the same price. An inspector wants to investigate whether the actual percentage of water in the product is within 5% of the intended 50%.
He selects a random sample of 500 containers of orange juice and determined the percentage of each that is water. He plans to conduct a significance test at the a = 0.01 level to see if there is convincing evidence that the proportion of water added is different from 0.50. What is the probability that the inspector makes a Type I error?
(A) 0.01
(B) 0.05
(C) 0.10
(D) 0.45
(E) 0.50

Answer: A. 0.01

Step-by-step explanation:

Type I error are refered to as false positives and it means that when a statistically significant difference is validated by the researcher even though the results aren't statistically significant.

Type I error is when one rejects the null hypothesis even though it's actually true. In this case, the inspector rejects the hypothesis which was that the proportion of water that is contained the product is 0.5.

The probability of type 1 error will then be equal to the hypothesis level of significance and this will be 0.01.

Whould anyone mind helping please. The first box says 6.25x+12x=30.75 the second box says 6.25x+12=30.75 3rd box says 6.25x+30.7
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

The correct equation is: 6x+12 = 30.75

And 3 people went to the movies

Step-by-step explanation:

We will write the equation to represent this scenario.

Let x be the number of people who went for movies.

Then the price of ticket for x people will be: 6.25x

They spent $12 on refreshments and a total of $30.75 so the equation will be:

6.25x+12=30.75

solving the equation will give us total number of people

So,

6.25x+12 = 30.75\\6.25x = 30.75-12\\6.25x = 18.75\\\frac{6.25x}{6.25} =\frac{18.75}{6.25}\\x = 3

Hence,

The correct equation is: 6x+12 = 30.75

And 3 people went to the movies

If ln(2x=y)=x=1 then dy/dx =
umka21 [38]
N(2x+y) = x +1 

Differentiate both sides, using the Chain Rule on the left side. 
(1 / (2x + y)) * d(2x + y)/dx = 1 
(1 / (2x + y)) * (2 + dy/dx) = 1 

<span>Rearrange to isolate dy/dx.
