A facilities manager at a university reads in a research report that the mean amount of time spent in the shower by an adult is 5 minutes. He decides to collect data to see if the mean amount of time that college students spend in the shower is significantly different from 5 minutes. In a sample of 15 students, he found the average time was 4.29 minutes and the standard deviation was 0.75 minutes. Using this sample information, conduct the appropriate hypothesis test at the 0.01 level of significance. Assume normality.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

n = 15

average = bar x = 4.29

null hypothesis

h0: μ=5

alternative hypothesis=

h1 = μ≠5

we find the test statistics

t stat = [tex]\frac{4.29-5}{0.75/\sqrt{15} }[/tex]

= -0.71/0.1936

= -3.6673

degree of freedom = 15 - 1 = 14

we find p value using excel's t distribution function

= T.DIST(3.664,14 2) this is a 2 tailed test

p value = 0.0025

alpha = 0.01

because 0.0025 < 0.01

conclusion

so we reject the claim that the time = 5 minutes  since p value is smaller than alpha.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 16° , z= 89°

Step-by-step explanation:

here's your solution

=> (11x -85)° = 91°. [ both are vertical angle]

=> 11x = 91° + 85°

=> 11x = 176°

=> x = 176°/11

=> x = 16°

now, 91° + z = 180° [ linear pair]

=> z = 180° - 91

=> z = 89°

suppose f(×) = 2^×, sketch a graph of f(×) and f^-1(×)​

Answers

Let f(x) = y

y = 2^x

x = 2^y

Solve for y.

ln x = ln(2^y)

ln x = y ln 2

ln x/ln 2 = y

Replace y with f^(-1) x.

f^(-1) x = ln x/ln 2

We now know f(x) and f^(-1) x.

Answers

Answer:

Consider the parent logarithm function f(x) = log(x)

Now,

Let us make transformations in the function f(x) to get the function g(x)

•On streching the graph of f(x) = log(x) , vertically by a factor of 3, the graph of y = 3log(x) is obtained.

•Now, shrinking the graph of y = 3log(x) horizontally by a fctor of 2 to get the grpah of y = 3log(x/2) i.e the graph of g(x)

Hence, the function g(x) after the parent function f(x) = log(x) undergoes a vertical stretch by a factor of 3, and a horizontal shrink by a factor of 2 is

g(x) = 3 log(x/2) (Option-B).

Then form equation 4/21 = 12/x ; multiply both sides of 4/21 by 3.

4/21 = 12/63

Answer: 78 floors total

Step-by-step explanation:

if 13=1/6

6 x 13=78

Answer:

13*6=78

Step-by-step explanation:

If one part of something is equal to 13, then 6 parts are equal to 13*6. Let us denote that "something" by x, and we get

Instructions require you to dilute a powder in 3 quarts of water. You only have a container that is marked in liters. How many liters would you use to dilute the powder?

Answers

Answer:

1 quart = .947 L

3 Q = 2.841 L

So you should use 2.841 L to dissolve the powder

One quartz is equal to 32 oz, then 2.88 liters of water are used to dilute the powder.

What is a conversion of units?

The unit conversion deals with the operation to change one form of the unit to another form of unit.

Instructions require you to dilute a powder in 3 quarts of water. You only have a container that is marked in liters.

We know that

1 quartz = 32 oz

3 quartz = 96 oz

Since 30 milliliters per oz

Then

30 milliliters × 96 oz = 2880 milliliters

Since 1000 milliliters per liter, then we have

[tex]\rm \dfrac{2880}{1000}=2.88\ liters[/tex]

2.88 liters are used to dilute the powder.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the time taken for Caleb to paint the room alone is given below:

Given that

Kevin paint a small room in 18 hours

And, kevin & caleb together paint the same room in 15 hours

So, time taken for Caleb to paint the room alone is

Let us assume the same be x

Kevin time taken + caleb time taken = total time taken

[tex]\frac{1}{18} + \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{15}\\\\ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{15} - \frac{1}{18}\\\\ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{6-5}{90} \\\\ \frac{1}{x} = \frac{1}{90}[/tex]

Answers

vu=15 su=square root 450 TV= square root 450 SW= squareroot 450/2

We want to find the missing measures for the given square.

VU = 15TV = 21.2SU = 21.2SW = 10.6

Working with squares.

We know that squares have the same length in all of their 4 sides, with that in mind we can see that:

TS = TU = UV = SV = 15

Then we can already complete:

VU = 15

Now we need the two diagonals, SU and TV.

The diagonal for a square of side length s is:

diagonal = (√2)s

Then the diagonals for our square are:

TV = SU = (√2)*15 = 21.2

And SW is half of the diagonal, so we have:

SW = 21.2/2 = 10.6

Answer:

x = 12

m(QS) = 52°

m(PD) = 152°

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall: Angle formed by two secants outside a circle = ½(the difference of the intercepted arcs)

Thus:

m<R = ½[m(PD) - m(QS)]

50° = ½[(12x + 8) - (4x + 4)] => substitution

Solve for x

Multiply both sides by 2

2*50 = (12x + 8) - (4x + 4)

100 = (12x + 8) - (4x + 4)

100 = 12x + 8 - 4x - 4 (distributive property)

Add like terms

100 = 8x + 4

100 - 4 = 8x

96 = 8x

96/8 = x

12 = x

x = 12

✔️m(QS) = 4x + 4 = 4(12) + 4 = 52°

✔️m(PD) = 12x + 8 = 12(12) + 8 = 152°

The number of light bulbs produced by a company can be modeled by the expression

purchasing the light bulbs is represented by 5x–3. Which is the expression representing the average number
of light bulbs purchased per company?

Answers

Answer:

Expression is 3x² + 5x - 17

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told the number of lights produced by a company is;

Number of lights = 15x^3 + 16x^2 – 100x + 51

Also, number of companies that purchased the light bulbs is 5x - 3.

Thus;

The average number of bulbs purchased per company = (15x^3 + 16x^2 – 100x + 51)/(5x - 3)

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

im so sorry this might be wrong

The probability that a exactly one chocolate contains nuts is 3/16 and probability that at least one chocolate contains nuts is 0.339.

How to calculate probability ?

Probability is calculated by dividing the number of possible outcomes by the total number of possible outcomes. Probability and odds are two distinct concepts. Odds are calculated by dividing the probability of something happening by the probability of it not happening.

When you calculate probability, you are estimating the likelihood of something occurring and representing it with a precise number.

The probability that a exactly one chocolate contains nuts

No of total chocolates = 16 chocolates

No of chocolates contain nuts = 3

The probability that a exactly one chocolate contains nuts = 3/16

Probability that  at least one chocolate contains nuts is

P(at least one contains nut) = 1 – P(given contains no nuts )^n

P(at least one contains nut) = 1 – (0.8125)^2

P(at least one contains nut) = 0.339

Probability that  at least one chocolate contains nuts = 0.339
