Weight Loss Program Suppose that a weight loss company advertises that people using its program lose an average of 8 pounds the first month, and that the Federal Trade Commission (the main government agency responsible for truth in advertising) is gathering evidence to see if this advertising claim is accurate. If the FTC finds evidence that the average is less than 8 pounds, the agency will file a lawsuit against the company for false advertising. What are the null and alternative hypotheses the FTC should use

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The null hypothesis is [tex]H_{0}: \mu = 8[/tex], and the alternative hypothesis is [tex]H_{a}: \mu < 8[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is equal to a certain value.

At the alternate hypothesis, we test if the mean is less than, more than, or different of the value tested at the null hypothesis.

Claims to lose an average of 8 pounds the first month

This means that the null hypothesis is [tex]H_{0}: \mu = 8[/tex]

If the FTC finds evidence that the average is less than 8 pounds, the agency will file a lawsuit against the company for false advertising.

FTC tests if the mean is less than 8, so the alternate hypothesis is [tex]H_{a}: \mu < 8[/tex]

You and your friend got tricked into helping another friend move stuff from a garage into moving truck. The ramp used is 12 feet long and makes a 36° angle with the horizontal ground. You discover that the incline is just too steep, so you replace the ramp with one that is 32 feet long. What angle does this replacement ramp make with the ground? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree

12.73 Degrees

I'm going to assume some things. The height of the truck is not changing, i.e. the the distance and length of the ramp is but the height stays the same.

We draw our right triangle, see photo

We really only care about finding out what side a is so

[tex]c = \frac{a}{ \sin(x) } [/tex]

Note: Let x = A

[tex]12 = \frac{a}{ \sin(36) } [/tex]

[tex]12 \sin(36) = a \\ a = 7.05342302750[/tex]

[tex] \sin(x) = ( \frac{opp}{hyp} ) \\ \sin(x) = ( \frac{7.05342302750}{12} ) \\ = 35.9999 \: degrees[/tex]

So, since I stated that height did not change, same process just using 32 for the hypotenuse.

[tex] \sin(x) = ( \frac{opp}{hyp} ) \\ \sin(x) = ( \frac{7.05342302750}{32} ) \\ = 12.73367164 \: \: degrees[/tex]

Find the area of the trapezoid. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answers

Answer:

42.50 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of the trapezoid = ½(AB + DC)×AD

AB = 6

DC = 11

AD = ?

Use trigonometric function, TOA to find AD:

Tan 45 = Opp/Adj

Opp = AD

Adj = 11 - 6 = 5

Tan 45 = AD/5

5 × tan 45 = AD

AD = 5

✔️Find Area of trapezoid.

Area = ½(AB + DC)×AD

= ½(11 + 6)×5

= 42.50 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

By saying square feet it's indicated that you mean the area of this irregular figure.

To do this you can break apart the shape into two pieces.

The first 11 x 3 rectangle then the 2 x 3 rectangle.

Next, you can find the area to be 33 square feet and 6 square feet. respectively, afterward, you add the areas together to find the area of the figure, which is 39 square feet.

Two investments totaling $15,500 produce an annual income of $1450. One investment yields 10% per year, while the other yields 5% per year. How much is invested at each rate?

Answers

Answer:10% rate:

Principal = p

Rate = 0.10

Interest = 0.10p

5% rate:

Principal = 15500 - p

Rate = 0.05

Interest = 0.05(15500 - p) = 775 - 0.05p

0.10p + (775 - 0.05p) = 1450

0.05p + 775 = 1450

0.05p = 675

p = 13500

10% rate:

Principal = p = $13,500

5% rate:

Principal = 15500 - p = 15500 - 13500 = $2000

Answers

Answer:

Line 1: zero

Line 2: negative

Line 3: undefined

Line 4: positive

Step-by-step explanation:

Line 1 => slope is horizontal. The slope of horizontal lines are always equal to 0. Therefore, the slope of line 1 is zero.

Line 2 => the line slants downwards form our left to the right, this implies there is a decline or increase. Thus, the slope would be negative.

Line 3 => the line of a vertical line is always undefined. Line 3 slope is therefore undefined.

Line 4 => the slope slants upwards from our left to the right. This indicates a rising slope or an increase. Therefore, the slope of line 4 is positive.

use the distributive property to multiply 3(-2m+1)​

Answers

Answer:

-6m+3

Step-by-step explanation:

"use the distributive property to multiply 3(-2m+1)​"

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The distributive property states that the product of an expression and a sum is equal to the sum of the products of the expression and each term in the sum. For example, a(b + c) = ab + ac. The division property of inequality states that two unequal values divided by a positive number retain the same relationship.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We can simplify this into-

3(-2m) + 3(1)

Now, we can multiply.

-6m + 3

Classic Limo, Inc., provides limousine service to Tri-Cities airport. The price of the service is fixed at a flat rate for each trip and most costs of the providing the service are stable for each trip. Marc Pence, the owner, budgets income by estimating two factors that fluctuate with the economy: the fuel cost associated with each trip and the number of customers who will take trips. Looking at next year, Marc develops the following estimates of contribution margin (price less variable cost of the trip, including fuel) and for the estimated number of customers. Although Marc understands that it is not strictly true, he assumes that the cost of fuel and the number of customers are independent. In addition to the costs of a ride, Marc estimates that other service costs are $50,000 plus $5 for each customer (ride) in excess of 6,000 rides. Annual administrative and marketing costs are estimated to be $25,000 plus 10 percent of the contribution margin.
