An automobile manufacturer has given its jeep a 26.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this jeep since it is believed that the jeep performs over the manufacturer's MPG rating. After testing 240 jeeps, they found a mean MPG of 26.7. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 2.5. Is there sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to support the testing firm's claim? Step 1 of 6: State the null and alternative hypotheses.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_0: \mu = 26.5[/tex]

The alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_a: \mu > 26.5[/tex]

The pvalue of the test is 0.1075 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to support the testing firm's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

An automobile manufacturer has given its jeep a 26.5 miles/gallon (MPG) rating. An independent testing firm has been contracted to test the actual MPG for this jeep since it is believed that the jeep performs over the manufacturer's MPG rating.

At the null hypothesis, we test that the mean is 26.5 MPG, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 26.5[/tex]

At the alternate hypothesis, we test that the mean is above 26.5 MPG, that is:

[tex]H_a: \mu > 26.5[/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.

26.5 is tested at the null hypothesis:

This means that [tex]\mu = 26.5[/tex]

After testing 240 jeeps, they found a mean MPG of 26.7. Assume the population standard deviation is known to be 2.5.

This means that [tex]n = 240, \mu = 26.7, \sigma = 2.5[/tex]

Value of the test statistic:

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

[tex]z = \frac{26.7 - 26.5}{\frac{2.5}{\sqrt{240}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.24[/tex]

Pvalue of the test and decision:

The pvalue of the test is the probability of finding a mean above 26.7, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of z = 1.24.

Looking at the z-table, z = 1.24 has a pvalue of 0.8925

1 - 0.8925 = 0.1075

The pvalue of the test is 0.1075 > 0.05, which means that there is not sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level to support the testing firm's claim.

sundip and emma have some money
the ratio of sundips money to emmas money is 3:5
emma spends £450 of her money
the ratio of sundips money to emmas money is now 2:3

found how much money sundip has

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Can you please answer the Sundip Ratio question?

£180.00

The amount of money Sundip have  £ 2700.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is a comparison between two amounts that is calculated by dividing one amount by the other. The quotient a/b is referred to as the ratio between a and b if a and b are two values of the same kind and with the same units, such that b is not equal to 0. Ratios are represented by the colon symbol (:). As a result, the ratio a/b has no units and is represented by the notation a: b.

Given:

ratio of sundips money : emmas money = 3:5

emma spends £450

ratio of sundips money : emmas money = 2:3

So, Sundip have money = 3x and Emma have money = 5x.

Now, Emma spends £450.

then she is left = (5x-450).

Now, the ratio of Sundip's money to Emma's money is given as 2:3 = 2/3.

2/3 = 3x/(5x-450).

2(5x-450) = 3*3x

10x - 900 = 9x

x = 900.

Thus, Sundip have 3x = 3 x 900 = 2700.

Karen makes $5 per hour baby-sitting and $12 per hour giving music lessons. One weekend, she worked a total of 18 hours and made $139. How many hours did she spend baby-sitting?

F)11
G)9
H)6
J)7​

Answers

Answer:

F) 11

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that she worked 18 hours, and earned $139.

Let's just say that she spent x hours baby-sitting.

If she makes $5 per hour, the total amount of money she earned from baby-sitting would be 5x.

If she spent x hours baby-sitting, that would mean that she spent 18-x hours giving music lessons.

So, the total amount of money she earned from music lessons would be 12(18-x).

Now we can plug this into an equation.

5x + 12(18-x) = 139.

5x + 216 - 12x = 139.

5x - 12x = -77

-7x = -77

x = 11.

This means that she spent 11 hours baby-sitting.

3 apples per tree

15 apples per tree

12 apples per tree

7 apples per tree

17 apples per tree

____________________

Solution :-

Given Information :-

Number of trees ➢ 12Apples produced by all 12 trees ➢ 72

To Find :-

Which of the following is the best estimate of how many apples each tree produces?

3 apples per tree

15 apples per tree

12 apples per tree

7 apples per tree

17 apples per tree

Calculation :-

Here, We will simply divide the number of apples produced by 12 trees by the number of trees and then we will round it off to it's nearest 'ones' place.

⇒ Total number of apples each tree produces = [tex] \sf \frac{total \: number \: of \: apples}{total \: number \: of \: trees} [/tex]

Substituting the values given, We get,

⇒ Total number of apples each tree produce = [tex] \sf \frac{72}{12} [/tex]

Total number of apples each tree produces = 6

Now, when we round it off to it's nearest 'ones' place, We get,

Round off 6 = 7

Since, We can see that, 4th option from the list of option given, is 7. Therefore 7 is the answer.

Answers

Answer:

a) [tex]Z = -2.88[/tex]

b) [tex]Z = -0.96[/tex]

c) 40 weeks gestation babies

Step-by-step explanation:

Normal Probability Distribution:

Problems of normal distributions can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean [tex]\mu[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]\sigma[/tex], the z-score of a measure X is given by:

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the p-value, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

a. Find the standardized score (z-score), relative to all U.S. births, for a baby with a birth length of 45 cm.

Here, we use [tex]\mu = 52.2, \sigma = 2.5[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{45 - 52.2}{2.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -2.88[/tex]

b. Find the standardized score of a birth length of 45 cm. for babies born one month early, using 47.4 as the mean.

Here, we use [tex]\mu = 47.4, \sigma = 2.5[/tex]. So

[tex]Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}[/tex]

[tex]Z = \frac{45 - 47.4}{2.5}[/tex]

[tex]Z = -0.96[/tex]

c. For which group is a birth length of 45 cm more common?

For each group, the probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z.

Z = -2.88 has a lower pvalue than Z = -0.96, so for Z = -2.88 the probability 1 - pvalue of Z will be greater. This means that for 40 weeks gestation babies a birth length of 45 cm is more common.

If the first term (a) is 4 and the common ratio (r) is 0.9, then the sequence diverges. Then the correct option is D.

What is a geometric sequence?

Suppose the initial term of a geometric sequence is a

and the term by which we multiply the previous term to get the next term is r

Then the sequence would look like

a, ar, ar², ar³, ...

The sequence is given below.

[tex]\rm a_n = 4 (0.9)^n[/tex]

Then the sum of the sequence will be given as

The first term (a) is 4. And the common ratio (r) is 0.9.

Then we get

[tex]\rm S_n = \dfrac{a (1 - r ^n)}{ (1 - r)}\\\\\rm S_n = \dfrac{4 (1 - 0.9 ^n)}{ (1 - 0.9)}\\\\\rm S_n = \dfrac{4 (1 - 0.9 ^n)}{0.1}\\\\\rm S_n = 40 (1 - 0.9^n)[/tex]

For n = 1, we have

S₁ = 40 (1 - 0.9)

S₁ = 40 x 0.1

S₁ = 4

For n = 2, we have

S₂ = 40 (1 - 0.9²)

S₂ = 40 x 0.19

S₂ = 7.6

For n = 3, we have

S₃ = 40 (1 - 0.9³)

S₃ = 40 x 0.271

S₃ = 10.84

If the common ratio is less than one then the sequence will diverge.

Jonah wants to construct a confidence interval using 90% confidence to estimate what proportion of silicon wafers at his factory is defective. He wants the margin of error to be no more than 3%. A previous study suggests that about 6% of these wafers are defective. If we assume p=0.06, what is the smallest sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error? 234 416 170 936

Answers

Answer:

170

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 of:

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

Assume:

[tex]\pi = 0.06[/tex]

90% confidence level

So [tex]\alpha = 0.1[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of [tex]1 - \frac{0.1}{2} = 0.95[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.645[/tex].

What is the smallest sample size required to obtain the desired margin of error?

This is n for which M = 0.03. So

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

[tex]0.03 = 1.645\sqrt{\frac{0.06*0.94}{n}}[/tex]

[tex]0.03\sqrt{n} = 1.645\sqrt{0.06*0.94}[/tex]

[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.645\sqrt{0.06*0.94}}{0.03}[/tex]

[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.645\sqrt{0.06*0.94}}{0.03})^2[/tex]

[tex]n = 169.6[/tex]
