Find a common denominator which is 12

1*3=3 4*3=12 so 3 3/12

then 5*2=10 6*2=12 so 2 10/12

2 10/12+3 3/12= 5 13/12

13/12= 1 1/12 plus 5= 6 1/12

so your answer would be 6 1/12

An automobile manufacturer has given its van a 47.2 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted t

7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

The test statistics is $t = -1.7$

The Null and Alternative hypothesis are

$H_o : \mu = 47.2$ and $H_a : \mu \ne 47.2$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The population mean is $\mu = 47.2 miles/gallon(MPG)$

The sample size is $n = 250 \ van$

The sample mean is $\= x = 47.0$

The sample standard deviation is $\sigma = 1.9$

The level of significance is $\alpha = 0.02$

Given that the value which the manufacturer gave the automobile is 47.2 and it is believed that this is not correct, then

The Null Hypothesis is

$H_o : \mu = 47.2$

The alternative Hypothesis is

$H_a : \mu \ne 47.2$

The test statistics can be mathematically evaluated as

$t = \frac{\= x- \mu}{\frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} } }$

substituting values

$t = \frac{\= 47- 47.2}{\frac{1.9 }{\sqrt{250} } }$

$t = -1.7$
