The director of a state agency believes that the average starting salary for clerical employees in the state is less than $30,00

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

The test statistics is $z = -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 100

The null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = \$30000$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu < \$ 30000$

The sample mean is $\= x = \$29,750$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = \$2,500$

The level of significance is $\alpha =0.05$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

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

=> $z = \frac{29750 - 30000 }{ \frac{ 2500}{ \sqrt{100} } }$

=> $z = -1$

A band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD. The band writes and records 60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD.

scoray [572]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that a band expects to put 15 songs on their next CD and that the band writes and records 60% more songs than they expect to put on the CD. Therefore, the total songs will be:

= 15 + (60% × 15)

= 15 + (0.6 × 15)

= 15 + 9

= 24 songs.

During the editing process, 75% of the songs are removed. The total number of songs that will be there on the final CD will be:

= 24 - (75% × 24)

= 24 - (0.75 × 24)

= 24 - 18

= 6

6 songs will be there on the final CD.

Oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 mill

abruzzese [7]

Answer:

V' = -0.11552 *V\\= -0.11552(1.8)\\ \\=-0.20794 million per year

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that oil is pumped continuously from a well at a rate proportional to the amount of oil left in the well. Initially there were 3 million barrels of oil in the well; six years later 1,500,000 barrels remain.

i.e. if V stands for volume of oil, then

$V' =kV\\dv/V= kdt\\ln V = kt+C\\V = Ae^{kt}$
