The answer would be 10 to the third because if you divide that it would equal 1,000

An advertisement for a popular weight-loss clinic suggests that participants in its new diet program lose, on average, more than

Sedbober [7]

Testing the hypothesis, it is found that:

The null hypothesis is: $H_0: \mu \leq 10$

The alternative hypothesis is: $H_1: \mu > 10$

The critical value is: $t_c = 1.74$

The decision rule is:

If t < 1.74, we do not reject the null hypothesis.
If t > 1.74, we reject the null hypothesis.

Since t = 1.41 < 1.74, we do not reject the null hypothesis, that is, it cannot be concluded that the mean weight loss is of more than 10 pounds.

Item a:

At the null hypothesis, it is tested if the mean loss is of at most 10 pounds, that is:

$H_0: \mu \leq 10$

At the alternative hypothesis, it is tested if the mean loss is of more than 10 pounds, that is:

$H_1: \mu > 10$

Item b:

We are having a right-tailed test, as we are testing if the mean is more than a value, with a significance level of 0.05 and 18 - 1 = 17 df.

Hence, using a calculator for the t-distribution, the critical value is: $t_c = 1.74$ .

Hence, the decision rule is:

If t < 1.74, we do not reject the null hypothesis.
If t > 1.74, we reject the null hypothesis.

Item c:

We have the standard deviation for the sample, hence the t-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

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

The parameters are:

$\overline{x}$ is the sample mean.
$\mu$ is the value tested at the null hypothesis.
s is the standard deviation of the sample.
n is the sample size.

For this problem, we have that:

$\overline{x} = 10.8, \mu = 10, s = 2.4, n = 18$

Thus, the value of the test statistic is:

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

$t = \frac{10.8 - 10}{\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{18}}}$

$t = 1.41$

Since t = 1.41 < 1.74, we do not reject the null hypothesis, that is, it cannot be concluded that the mean weight loss is of more than 10 pounds.

A restaurant with two locations buys twelve bags of flour and eight large bags of sugar. Location A receives seven bags of flour

Alborosie

You want to solve this set of linear equations by the elimination method.

Let x=price of bag of flour and y=price of bag of sugar

Multiply the first equation by -3.

-3(7x+5y=584)
Multiply the second equation by 5.
5(5x+3y=384)

Solve by elimination.

X=42

Substitute value of x into one of the original equations.

Y=58
