volume: 200 cm³surface area: 220 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

The usual formulas are useful for this.

  V = LWH

  V = (10 cm)(4 cm)(5 cm) = 200 cm³

The volume is 200 cubic centimeters.

__

  SA = 2(LW +H(L +W))

  SA = 2((10 cm)(4 cm) +(5 cm)(10 cm +4 cm)) = 2(40 +5(14)) cm² = 220 cm²

Can the company conclude that their expected distribution was accurate using a 10% level of significance?

a. Calculate the test statistic.
b. Determine the critical value(s) for the hypothesis test.
c. Conclude whether to reject the null hypothesis or not based on the test


Answers

COLOR I need help with this qeustion also pls tell me when u get the answer

a)

The test statistics is χ² = 8.31

b)

The critical value is 6.251.

c)

We reject the null hypothesis that the expected distribution is accurate.

What is hypothesis testing?

Hypothesis testing is a statistical method that is used to make decisions about a population based on a sample of data.

It involves testing a null hypothesis (H0) against an alternative hypothesis (Ha) using statistical techniques.

We have,

a.

To test whether the expected distribution was accurate, we need to perform a chi-square goodness-of-fit test.

The null hypothesis is that the expected distribution is accurate, and the alternative hypothesis is that it is not accurate.

The expected frequencies are:

Color:

White  Black  Silver  Rose  Gold

105  122.5  70  52.5

i.e

Expected Freq:

0.3 x 350 = 105

0.35 x 350 = 122.5

0.2 x 350 = 70

0.15 x 350 = 52.5

Using the formula for the chi-square goodness-of-fit test statistic:

χ² = ∑ (Observed Frequency - Expected Frequency)² / Expected Frequency

χ² = [(99-105)²/105] + [(135-122.5)²/122.5] + [(89-70)²/70] + [(27-52.5)²/52.5]

χ² = 8.31

b.

The critical value for the chi-square test with 3 degrees of freedom (4 categories - 1) and a significance level of 0.10 is 6.251.

c.

Since the calculated test statistic (8.31) is greater than the critical value (6.251), we reject the null hypothesis that the expected distribution is accurate.

Therefore, the company cannot conclude that their expected distribution was accurate using a 10% level of significance.

Thus,

a)

The test statistics is χ² = 8.31

b)

The critical value is 6.251.

c)

We reject the null hypothesis that the expected distribution is accurate.

The new developments in communication, transportation, and agriculture gave great impetus to industrial production. Other factors, however, also had considerable effect on the growth of industry.In 1807, while England and France were engaged in war, President Thomas Jefferson convinced Congress that all United States trade with foreign countries should be stopped. The president thought this move was necessary because both England and France were interfering with United States ships that traded with the other country. Congress agreed and acted. This act of Congress, the Embargo Act, meant that the United States could no longer buy goods manufactured in England. This act greatly increased the growth of factories in the United States. Items that were manufactured in England now had to be produced in the United States. Increased production introduced strong competition among American businesses, which in turn provided the incentive to search for better ways of production.Progress does not always come about by desirable means. War is certainly one of the less desirable means. With all of its destruction and grief, war proves advantageous to those involved in certain industries. Demands on industry in time of war are great and constant. The production of weapons, ammunition, warships, and other military equipment keeps factories busy and profits high during war efforts. As soldiers leave their jobs to fight, many positions are left open. Not only does unemployment decrease, but many workers labor overtime to meet the production demands of the war.
