An automobile manufacturer claims that its van has a 40.3 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the MPG for this van since it is believed that the van has an incorrect manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 39.9. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 2.4. A level of significance of 0.05 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The value of the test statistic is -2.64.

Step-by-step explanation:

The test statistic is:

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

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the expected(claimed) mean, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

An automobile manufacturer claims that its van has a 40.3 miles/gallon (MPG) rating.

This means that [tex]\mu = 40.3[/tex]

After testing 250 vans, they found a mean MPG of 39.9. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 2.4.

This means, respectively, that:

[tex]n = 250, X = 39.9, \sigma = 2.4[/tex]

So

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

[tex]t = \frac{39.9 - 40.3}{\frac{2.4}{\sqrt{250}}}[/tex]

[tex]t = -2.64[/tex]

The value of the test statistic is -2.64.

Solve the system of equations by any method you choose
-4x-2y=-2
-9x+3y=3

Answers

Answer:1. Use substitution to solve the system of equations:

   -x + 2y=7

    x - 3y = 3

2. Solve the system of equations by the elimination method

a.  2x+ y = -17

   x - y = 2

b. 3x + y = -15

  x + 2y = -10

Answer:

(0, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by using the substitution or elimination method. For this problem, I'm going to use the substitution method. First, rewrite -4x-2y=-2 in slope-intercept form, which would be y=-2x+1. Substitute the y value in -9x+3y=3 (which would be -9x+3(-2x+1)=3) and solve.

-9x+3(-2x+1)=3

-9x-6x+3=3

-15x=0

x=0

Now, substitute the x value in for the x in any equation. You can do -4(0)-2y=-2 or -9(0)+3y=3. I'm going to use -9(0)+3y=3.

-9(0)+3y=3

3y=3

y=1

on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday.

What is the total number of hours Andres will practice with his band over these 6 days?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]Total = 104\ hrs[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Monday = 15\ hrs[/tex]

[tex]Tuesday = 13\ hrs[/tex]

[tex]Wednesday = 24\ hrs[/tex]

Required

Determine the hours of practice over 6 days

First, we calculate the hours for the given 3 days.

[tex]Hours = Monday + Tuesday + Wednesday[/tex]

[tex]Hours = 15\ hrs + 13\ hrs + 24\ hrs[/tex]

[tex]Hours = 52\ hrs[/tex]

The hours of practice for the other three days is also 52 hours.

So, the total is:

[tex]Total = 52\ hrs + 52\ hrs[/tex]

[tex]Total = 104\ hrs[/tex]

The Answer is 68.199

In 2009 a survey of Internet usage found that 79 percent of adults age 18 years and older in the United States use the Internet. A broadband company believes that the percent is greater now than it was in 2009 and will conduct a survey. The company plans to construct a 98 percent confidence interval to estimate the current percent and wants the margin of error to be no more than 2.5 percentage points. Assuming that at least 79 percent of adults use the Internet, which of the following should be used to find the sample size (n) needed?

a. 1.96 â0.5/n = 0.025
b. 1.96 â0.5(0.5)/n = 0.25
c. 2.33 â0.5(0.5)/n =0.05
d. 2.33 â0.79(0.21)/n= 0.025

Answers

Answer:

[tex]0.025 = 2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.79*0.21}{n}}[/tex]

Option d.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of [tex]\pi[/tex], and a confidence level of [tex]1-\alpha[/tex], we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

[tex]\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].

The margin of error is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

79 percent of adults age 18 years and older in the United States use the Internet.

This means that [tex]\pi = 0.79[/tex]

98% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.02[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.02}{2} = 0.99[/tex], so [tex]Z = 2.33[/tex].

Which of the following should be used to find the sample size (n) needed?

We have to find n for which [tex]M = 0.025[/tex]

So the equation is:

[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.025 = 2.33\sqrt{\frac{0.79*0.21}{n}}[/tex]

Which equation shows a correct relation for triangle RSQ?

Answers

Answer:

sinQ=cosR

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find out the measure of ∠R.

The sum of all the angles in a triangle add up to 180. Therefore:

∠Q+∠R+∠S=180

66+∠R+90=180

∠R=180-156

∠R=24°

Since ∠Q≠∠R, sinQ≠sinR. So the first option is incorrect - let's try the second one.

sinQ=cosR

sin66=cos24

0.9135454576=0.9135454576

So the second equation is the correct relation.

Ok so I’m going to try my best:
I’m guessing you would do $960 times 6.1 but you move the decimal point twice to the left which would be: .061
This is how we find out each month
58.56
So, we start out with $960 we keep adding 58.56 or to do faster we can multiply
Adding 58.56:
1 = 1018.56
2 = 1077.12

Multiplying 58.56 by 13:
KEEP IN MIND THAT WE START FROM $960 and we need TO GET TO $1,720
58.56 times 13 equals 761.28
Then we add
960 + 761.28
1721.28

So it would have to be 12 months since it needs to be less or “to the nearest year”
Therefore, the answer would be a year

I hope this helps! :) good luck


It’s 12 months I think I’m sorry if it’s wrong.

You are making sandwiches for a large party. Each sandwich has two slices of bread, one slice of turkey, two slices of cheese, three slices of tomato and 5 slices of cucumber. How many sandwiches will you get from ... 10 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber

Question:

You are making sandwiches for a large party. Each sandwich has two slices of bread, one slice of turkey, two slices of cheese, three slices of tomato and 5 slices of cucumber. How many sandwiches will you get from 10 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber? assuming you have plenty of everything

Answer:

4 sandwiches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

1 Sandwich contains:

[tex]Bread = 2\ slices[/tex]

[tex]Turkey = 1\ slice[/tex]

[tex]Cheese = 2\ slices[/tex]

[tex]Tomato = 3\ slices[/tex]

[tex]Cucumber = 5\ slices[/tex]

Required

Number of sandwiches from 10 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber?

Since we are to assume that every other thing is in abundance, we will only consider the unit amount of bread and cucumber

[tex]Bread = 2\ slices[/tex]

[tex]Cucumber = 5\ slices[/tex]

Express as ratio

[tex]Bread : Cucumber = 2 : 5[/tex]

When the ratio is multiplied by 5, the slice of cucumber (25) will exceed the available slices (20).

So, we multiply by 4

[tex]Bread : Cucumber = 2*4 : 5*4[/tex]

[tex]Bread : Cucumber = 8 : 20[/tex]

This implies that:

8 slices of bread and 20 slices of cucumber are used

Hence:

4 sandwiches can be made
