An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 180180 engin

tiny-mole [99]

Answer:

$z=\frac{4.6-4.8}{\frac{0.9}{\sqrt{180}}}=-2.98$

$p_v =P(Z$

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis,and we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is significantly lower thn 4.8 at 10% of signficance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=4.6$ represent the sample mean

$\sigma=0.9$ represent the population standard deviation

$n=180$ sample size

$\mu_o =4.8$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha=0.1$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

z 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.

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to check if thetrue mean is below the specifications, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu \geq 4.8$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu < 4.8$

If we analyze the size for the sample is > 30 and we know the population deviation so 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".

Calculate the statistic

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

$z=\frac{4.6-4.8}{\frac{0.9}{\sqrt{180}}}=-2.98$

P-value

Since is a one sided test the p value would be:

$p_v =P(Z$

Conclusion

If we compare the p value and the significance level given $\alpha=0.1$ we see that $p_v$ so we can conclude that we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis,and we have enough evidence to conclude that the true mean is significantly lower thn 4.8 at 10% of signficance.

What is the volume of the square pyramid with base edges 12 cm and height 12 cm?

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

V=144

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of a pyramid, use the formula V=B•h, B being the base and h the height. So 12•12=144.

Which statement is true about the domain of y = 3(2^-x)? Explain.

SVEN [57.7K]

We want to determine the domain of ${y=3 \cdot 2^{-x}=3 \cdot ({2^{-1}})^x=3 \cdot ({ \frac{1}{2}})^x$

any function of the form $y=f(x)=a \cdot b^x$ is called an "exponential function",
the only condition is that b is positive and different from 1, and a is a nonzero real number.

The domain of such functions is all real numbers.

That is for any x, the expression <span>3(2^-x) "makes sense".

Answer: </span><span>The domain is all real numbers</span>

Triangle DEF has sides with lengths of 6, 11, and 13 units. Determine whether this triangle is a right triangle. Show all work n

mario62 [17]

Answer:

Triangle DEF is not a right triangle ; possible lengths are 20 & 15

Step-by-step explanation:

For right triangle;

the sum of the square of the two adjacent sides must equal the square of the hypotenus.

Therefore, (6^2)+(11^2)≠(13^2).

the possible length are 20 & 15 because

(20^2)+(15^2)=(25^2)
