A bottled water distributor wants to determine whether the mean amount of water contained in 1-gallon bottles purchased from a nationally known water bottling company is actually 1 gallon. You select a random sample of 100 bottles, the mean amount of water per 1-gallon bottle is 0.994 gallon, and standard deviation of the amount of water per bottle is 0.03 gallon.
You select a random sample of 50 bottles, and the mean amount of water per 1-gallon bottle is 0.995 gallon.
a. Is there evidence that the mean amount is different from 1.0 gallon? (Use α-0.01.)
b. Compute the p-value and interpret its meaning
c. Construct a 99% confidence interval estimate of the population mean amount of water per bottle.
d. Compare the results of (a) and (c). What conclusions do you reach?

Answers

Answer:

We fail to reject H0; Hence, we conclude that there is no significant evidence that the mean amount of water per gallon is different from 1.0 gallon

Pvalue = - 2

(0.98626 ; 1.00174)

Since, 1.0 exist within the confidence interval, then we can conclude that mean amount of water per gallon is 1.0 gallon.

Step-by-step explanation:

H0 : μ= 1

H1 : μ < 1

The test statistic :

(xbar - μ) / (s / sqrt(n))

(0.994 - 1) / (0.03/sqrt(100))

-0.006 / 0.003

= - 2

The Pvalue :

Pvalue form Test statistic :

P(Z < - 2) = 0.02275

At α = 0.01

Pvalue > 0.01 ; Hence, we fail to reject H0.

The confidence interval :

Xbar ± Margin of error

Margin of Error = Zcritical * s/sqrt(n)

Zcritical at 99% confidence level = 2.58

Margin of Error = 2.58 * 0.03/sqrt(100) = 0.00774

Confidence interval :

0.994 ± 0.00774

Lower boundary = (0.994 - 0.00774) = 0.98626

Upper boundary = (0.994 + 0.00774) = 1.00174

(0.98626 ; 1.00174)

In Prof. Leahy's class, if a student does homework most days, the chance of passing the course is 90%. On the other hand, if a student does not do homework most days, the chance of passing the course is only 30%. Prof. Leahy claims that 70% of his students do homework on a regular basis. If a student is chosen at random from Prof. Leahy's class, find the following probabilities:

a. p(the student did not do homework and he/she passed the course)
b. p(the student did not do homework given that she/he passed the course)

Answers

Answer:

a) p(the student did not do homework and he/she passed the course) = 0.09

b) p(the student did not do homework given that she/he passed the course) = 0.125.

Step-by-step explanation:

Conditional Probability

We use the conditional probability formula to solve this question. It is

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)}[/tex]

In which

P(B|A) is the probability of event B happening, given that A happened.

[tex]P(A \cap B)[/tex] is the probability of both A and B happening.

P(A) is the probability of A happening.

a. p(the student did not do homework and he/she passed the course)

If a student does not do homework most days, the chance of passing the course is only 30%. 100 - 70 = 30% don't do homework on a regular basis.

So

0.3*0.3 = 0.09

p(the student did not do homework and he/she passed the course) = 0.09

b. p(the student did not do homework given that she/he passed the course)

Conditional probability.

Event A: Passed the course

Event B: Did not do homework.

p(the student did not do homework and he/she passed the course) = 0.09

This means that [tex]P(A \cap B) = 0.09[/tex]

Probability that the student passes the course:

90% of 70%(do homework)

30% of 30%(do not do homework).

This means that:

[tex]P(A) = 0.9*0.7 + 0.3*0.3 = 0.72[/tex]

p(the student did not do homework given that she/he passed the course)

[tex]P(B|A) = \frac{P(A \cap B)}{P(A)} = \frac{0.09}{0.72} = 0.125[/tex]

So

p(the student did not do homework given that she/he passed the course) = 0.125.

solving steps for 2/3(9+x) = -5(4-x)​

Answers

Answer:

x = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

2/3(9+x) = -5(4-x) ( 2/3times9=6, 2/3timesx=2/3x) ( -5times4=-20,-5timesx=-5x)

6 + 2/3x = -20 -5x ( add 20 on both sides)

26 + 2/3x = -5x ( minus 2/3x on both sides)

26 = -4.6x (divided -4.6x on both sides)

-5.6 = x ( round up)

-6 = x

What is the solution to this system of equations? 4x + 5y = 7
3x – 2y =-12
The solution is
(-2, 3)
(3.-1)
(18. -9)
(13,-9)​

Answers

Answer:

(-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

4x + 5y = 7

3x - 2y = -12

Let's solve this by elimination. We want to eliminate one variable at a time. This means we need to multiply the equations to create a common multiple to cancel out a variable.

Let's work with y.

5y and -2y: For these values to cancel out, we need to multiply each term to create a common multiple.

2(4x + 5y = 7)

5(3x - 2y = -12)

Multiply.

8x + 10y = 14

15x - 10y = -60

Eliminate.

23x = -46

Divide both sides by 23.

x = -2

Now that we know x, let's plug it back into one of equations to find y.

4x + 5y = 7

4(-2) + 5y = 7

Multiply.

-8 + 5y = 7

Add.

5y = 15

Divide.

y = 3

Now we know x and y; let's plug both back into the equation we have not checked yet.

3x - 2y = -12

3(-2) - 2(3) = -12

Multiply.

-6 - 6 = -12

Subtract.

-12 = -12

Your solution is correct.

(-2, 3)

(3 tan 45°)(4 sin 60°)-(2 cos 30°)(3 sin 30°)

Answers

Answer:

[tex]9\,\sin(60^\circ)[/tex], which is equal to [tex]\displaystyle \frac{9\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

An angle of [tex]45^\circ[/tex] corresponds to an isosceles right triangle: the length of the two legs (adjacent and opposite) would be equal. Accordingly:

[tex]\displaystyle \tan(45^\circ) = \frac{\text{Opposite Leg}}{\text{Adjacent Leg}} = 1[/tex].

Let [tex]A[/tex] denote the measure of an angle. Double-angle identity for sine:

[tex]2\, \sin(A) \cdot \cos(A) = \sin(2\, A)[/tex].

By this identity:

[tex]\begin{aligned}& (2\, \cos(30^\circ)) \cdot (3\, \sin(30^\circ)) \\ &= 3\, (2\, \cos(30^\circ) \cdot \sin(30^\circ)) \\ &= 3\, \sin(2 \times 30^\circ) \\ &= 3\, \sin(60^\circ)\end{aligned}[/tex].

([tex]A = 30^\circ[/tex] in this instance.)

Hence:

[tex]\begin{aligned}&(3\, \tan(45^\circ)) \cdot (4\, \sin(60^\circ)) - (2\, \cos(30^\circ)) \cdot (3\, \sin(30^\circ)) \\ &= 12\, \sin(60^\circ) - 3\, \sin(60^\circ) \\ &= 9\, \sin(60^\circ)\end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\displaystyle \sin(60^\circ) = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex]. Therefore, [tex]\displaystyle 9\, \sin(60^\circ) = \frac{9 \sqrt{3}}{2}[/tex].

The base of a right triangle is 12 cm and its area is 210 cm². What is the length of its hypotenuse?

Answers

Answer:

The length of the hypotenuse is 37cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that the area of the triangle can be found by 1/2bh. we can plug in what we know into this formula to find the height.

a=1/2bh

210=1/2(12)h

210=6h

h=35cm

now, since it's a right triangle, we can find the length of its hypotenuse by using the pythagorean theorem, using c to represent the length of the hypotenuse:

12^2+35^2=c^2

c^2=144+1225

c^2=1369

c=37

so, the hypotenuse is 37cm

The length of the hypotenuse is 21.22 cm

How to determine the hypotenuse?

The given parameters are:

Area = 210

Base = 12

Start by calculating the height using:

Height = Area/Base

This gives

Height = 210/12

Divide

Height = 17.5

The hypotenuse is then calculated using:

Hypotenuse = √(Base^2 + Height^2)

This gives

Hypotenuse = √(12^2 + 17.5^2)

Evaluate

Hypotenuse = 21.22

Hence, the length of the hypotenuse is 21.22 cm

Answer:

y = 90

Step-by-step explanation:

If y varies jointly as x and z, then;

y = kxz

If y = 18 when x = 2 and z = 3

18 = k(2)(3)

18 = 6k

k = 18/6

k = 3

To get y when x = 5 and z = 6

y = kxz

y = 3(5)(6)

y = 15*6

y = 90

Hence the value of y is 90
