Explanation on How to answer what is the density of an object that has a mass of 73,430 and the volume of 7 m3
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Density = 10,490 g/m³

Tema [17]

Answer:

a) P value = 0.0013

b) No, it is not plausible that the silicon content of the water is no greater than it was 10 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis here is “Mean is equal to 5” while alternate hypothesis is that “Mean is greater than 5”

Given  

Mean = 5, x’ = 5.4 and sigma = 1.2 and n = 85

Z = x-u’/sigma/sqrt n

Substituting the given values, we get –  

Z = 3.02

A) P value = 0.0013 which is less than 0.05 and thus we will reject the null hypothesis

B) There is enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis
