A brochure claims that the average maximum height a certain type of plant is 0.7 m. A gardener suspects that this estimate is not accurate locally due to soil conditions. A random sample of 43 plants is taken. The mean height of the plants in the sample is 0.65m. Using a 1% level of significance, perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the population mean is different from 0.7m. Assume that the population standard deviation is 0.2 m.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

We accept the null hypothesis, that is, that the population mean is not different from 0.7.

Step-by-step explanation:

A brochure claims that the average maximum height a certain type of plant is 0.7 m.

This means that the null hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 0.7[/tex]

A gardener suspects that this estimate is not accurate locally due to soil conditions.

Hypothesis test to determine whether the population mean is different from 0.7m, which means that the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu \neq 0.7[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

0.7 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 0.7[/tex]

A random sample of 43 plants is taken. The mean height of the plants in the sample is 0.65m.

This means, respectively, that [tex]n = 43, X = 0.65[/tex]

Assume that the population standard deviation is 0.2 m.

This means that [tex]\sigma = 0.2[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{0.65 - 0.7}{\frac{0.2}{\sqrt{43}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.64[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

Since we are testing that the mean is different of a value, and z is negative, the pvalue of the test is 2 multiplied by the pvalue of z = -1.64

z = -1.64 has a pvalue of 0.0505

2*0.0505 = 0.101

Using a 1% level of significance, perform a hypothesis test to determine whether the population mean is different from 0.7m.

0.101 > 0.01, which means that we accept the null hypothesis, that is, that the population mean is not different from 0.7.

.

Answers

Answer:

Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is  

Solution:

Given that, the dress is on sale for 35 % off the regular price

Let the regular price of dress be "w"

To find: Expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress

Let "s" be the sale price of wedding dress

Sale price = Regular price - discount price

Discount price is given as:

Discount price = 35 % of regular price

Discount price = 35 % of w  

Thus discount price = 0.35w

Expression for the sale price of the wedding dress:

Sale price = Regular price - discount price

s = w - 0.35

s = 0.65

s= 0.65

Thus expression that represents the sale price of the wedding dress is

s=0.56

Answers

Answer:

Let me know if there is anything you don't get

∠3 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠3 are supplementary and 102 + 78 = 180

∠4 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠4 are consecutive interior angles

∠5 = 78 because ∠1 and ∠5 are corresponding angles

∠6 = 133 because ∠2 and ∠6 are supplementary angles

∠7 = 47 because ∠2 and ∠7 are vertical angles

∠8 = 47 because ∠2 and ∠8 are opposite interior angles

∠9 = 133 because ∠8 and ∠9 are supplementary, and we just saw ∠2=∠8

∠10 = 102 because ∠1 and ∠10 are supplementary

You could have used a whole bunch of different relations, but I wanted to focus on ∠1 and ∠2 since those were told to us

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question you need to know several parts of geometry.  Let me know if anything doesn't make sense.

First, parallel lines are two or more lines which are angles in such a way that no matter how long they are they will not cross.  In other words they are slanted at the same angle.  you can see this with lines a and b in this picture.

Second, a transversal is a line that crosses through two or more parallel lines.  A transversal creates a number of angles that have special properties.  I would like you to look specifically at line c as I describe these angles.  line c is a transversal to Ines a and b.  Also line d is also a transversal.

There are seven special angles to know.

The easiest is supplementary angles.  This you don't need parallel lines, but if any two lines ever cross this creates 4 angles.  you can actually look at where lines c and b intersect in your problem.  Angles 2. 6 and 7 are labeled but there is one more unlabeled one.  Now, 180 degrees is a straight line.  With angles you can see angles 6 and 7 add together to be a straight line.  Similarly 2 and 6 do as well.  These are two sets of supplementary angles.  

To list off the supplementary angles here 9 and 8 are supplementary, as are  2 and 6, 6 and 7, 1 and 3, 1 and 10, and finally 4 and 5.

From supplementary angles comes vertical angles.  Again, if you look at angles 2, 6 and 7 we already know ∠2 + ∠6 = 180 and ∠6 + ∠7 = 180.  Well lets say ∠6 = 133.  Well then, we could use algebra to see that both ∠2 AND ∠7 are 47 degrees.  This is the property of vertical angles.  if you have two lines intersecting, any two angles that have a third in between the are called vertical angles, and are equal.

some examples of vertical angles are ∠2 and ∠7as well as ∠3 and ∠10,  

Finally we go into parallel line specific angles.  If you have two or more parallel lines with a transversal, so in particular look at a and b as the parallel lines and c as the transversal.  The transversal creates some special angles.  in particular, the transversal crosses a and b at the same angle, so angles 8 and 7 have the same value.  These are known as corresponding angles, since they correspond tot he same position with a transversal crossing through parallel lines.  

the corresponding angles in the picture are ∠8 and ∠7, ∠3 and ∠4 and finally ∠1 and ∠5.  the last two using line d as a transversal.

After corresponding angles opposite interior angles I think are the next logically to look at.  Opposite means they are on two different parallel lines and on different sides of the transversal, while interior means they are between the parallel lines.  so if you look at the parallel lines a and b there are angles 8 and 2 that are interior angles.  Since 8 is against line a and 2 is against line b, and ∠8 is above transversal c while ∠2 is below it, they are opposite angles.  so 8 and 2 are opposite interior angles.  Now, if you look at ∠8 and ∠7 you know these are corresponding angles, then ∠7 and ∠2 are vertical angles.  This means opposite interior angles are equal.

A list of opposite interior angles are ∠8 and ∠2, and ∠10 and ∠4.

Alongside opposite interior, there are opposite exterior angles.  opposite means on different parallel Ines and on opposite sides of the transversal, while this time exterior means not between the parallel lines.  Now just like we figured with opposite interior angles

The only labeled pair of opposite exterior angles are ∠9 and ∠6.  Now just like we figured with opposite interior angles, let's start with ∠8 and ∠9, which are supplementary.  then ∠8 and ∠7 are corresponding angles so ∠9 and ∠7 are supplementary.  We can also see ∠7 and ∠6 are supplementary.  well, since ∠9 + ∠7 = 180 = ∠6 + ∠7 then ∠9 = 180 - ∠7 = ∠6 so ∠9 = ∠6.  This shows opposite exterior angles are  equal.

So we did two kinds of opposite angles, it might make sense there are non opposite angles.  And there are.  these are called consecutive angles.  There are consecutive exterior and consecutive interior angles.  An example of each are ∠1 and ∠4 for consecutive interior, consecutive because they are on the same side of the transversal, and interior because they are between the two parallel lines.  ∠3 and ∠5 are consecutive exterior angles.

You can use similar reasoning we have been so far to conclude all consecutive angles are supplementary

Find the value of k that makes the function continuous

Answers

Answer:

13/3

OR

4.33333

Step-by-step explanation:

For this function to be continuous, the second function must have the value of the limit as x approaches 3 of the first function.

To find [tex]\lim_{x \to 3} \frac{2x^2-3-15}{x-3}[/tex] we have to factor the top of the fraction

2x^2 - 3 -15

2x^2 - 18

2* (x^2 - 9)

2 * (x + 3) (x - 3)

this is perfect because this cancels out the x - 3 on the bottom

so the function become f(x) = 2 * (x + 3)

When 3 is plugged in it becomes 2 * (3 + 3) = 2 * 6 = 12

Now if you plug in 3 to the second function and make it equal to 12, you can find the value of k.

k*(3) - 1 = 12

k*3 = 13

k = 13/3

k = 4.33

The diameter of the washers are required to be between 1.53 millimeters and 1.65 millimeters long. Any washers that do not meet this requirement must be discarded. What percentage of washers will the factory have to discard

Answers

Answer:

32%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the mean of the values and σ their standard deviation.

Since the minimum value of the diameter of the washers is 1.53 mm, then

x - σ = 1.53 mm  (1)

Also, the maximum value of the diameter of the washers is 1.65 mm, then

x + σ = 1.65 mm  (2)

Adding (1) and (2), we have

x - σ = 1.53 mm

+

x + σ = 1.65 mm  

2x = 3.18

x = 3.18/2

x = 1.59 mm

Subtracting (1) and (2), we have

x - σ = 1.53 mm

-

x + σ = 1.65 mm  

-2σ = -0.12

σ = -0.12/-2

σ = 0.06 mm

Since the diameter of the washers are required to be between 1.53 millimeters and 1.65 millimeters long, and x - σ = 1.53 mm to x + σ = 1.65 mm are the required values, 68% of the washers lie in this range. The other values lie outside this range. The amount that the factory would have to discard is 100% - 68% = 32%

This question is based on the percentage. Thus, 32%  of washers will the factory have to discard.

Given:

The diameter of the washers are required to be between 1.53 millimeters and 1.65 millimeters long.

We need to determined the percentage of washers will the factory have to discard.

According to question,

Let x be the mean and σ be their standard deviation.

The minimum value of the diameter of the washers is 1.53 mm.

Then,

x - σ = 1.53 mm  (1)

Also, the maximum value of the diameter of the washers is 1.65 mm, then

x + σ = 1.65 mm  (2)

Adding (1) and (2), we have

   x - σ = 1.53 mm  

+  x + σ = 1.65 mm  

⇒ 2x = 3.18

We get,

x = 1.59 mm

Subtracting (1) and (2), we have

 x - σ = 1.53 mm

- x + σ = 1.65 mm  

⇒ -2σ = -0.12

We get,

σ = 0.06 mm

Therefore, the diameter of the washers are required to be between 1.53 millimeters and 1.65 millimeters long, and x - σ = 1.53 mm to x + σ = 1.65 mm are the required values, 68% of the washers lie in this range.

And the other values lie outside this range. The amount that the factory would have to discard is 100% - 68% = 32%.

Thus, 32%  of washers will the factory have to discard.
