a. State the null and alternative hypotheses.
b. Report the value of the test statistic. Round answer to 2 decimal places. (Either calculate or use software such as minitab)
c. Using the p-value, do you reject the null hypothesis or fail to reject the null hypothesis? Explain your decision.
d. Based on your decision in part (c), write a conclusion within the context of the problem.
Answer:
Kindly check explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
H0 : μ = 15.7
H1 : μ < 15.7
This is a one sample t test :
Test statistic = (xbar - μ) ÷ (s/√(n))
n = sample size = 33
Using calculator :
The sample mean, xbar = 15.41
The sample standard deviation, s = 0.419
Test statistic = (15.41 - 15.70) ÷ (0.419/√(33))
Test statistic = - 3.976
Using the Pvalue calculator :
Degree of freedom, df = n - 1 ; 33 - 1 = 32
Pvalue(-3.976, 32) = 0.000187
Decison region :
Reject H0 if Pvalue < α
Since Pvalue < α ; we reject H0
There is significant evidence to conclude that the true average height of the seedlings treated with an extract from Vinca minor roots is less than 15.7 cm.

This is a classic find the vertex of a parabola question.
if this was a calculus class the solution would be to take the derivative and set it equal to zero... -32t+ 105 = 0
BUT i assume that you are not in a calculus class..
so we try plan "B" the highest (or lowest) point of parabola is it's vertex
the vertex formula is [-b/2a,f(-b/2a)]
in your problem a = -16, b=105, c= 5
so the "X" (TIME) is located at -(105)/(2*-16) = 3.28
plug in 3.28 into -16(3.28)^2 + 105(3.28) + 5 = 177.27
and you will get
Step-by-step explanation:
Point D is 8 units away from the origin along the x-axis, and is 6 units away along the y-axis. Which of the following could be the coordinates of Point D
Answer:
The distance between two points (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) is given by:
[tex]d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2}[/tex]
Now we know that point D, which we can write as (x, y), is at a distance of 8 units from the origin.
Where the origin is written as (0, 0)
We also know that point D is 6 units away along the y-axis.
Then point D could be:
(x, 6)
or
(x, -6)
Now, let's find the x-value for each case, we need to solve:
[tex]8 = \sqrt{(x - 0)^2 + (\pm6 - 0)^2}[/tex]
notice that because we have an even power, we will get the same value of x, regardless of which y value we choose.
[tex]8 = \sqrt{x^2 + 36} \\\\8^2 = x^2 + 36\\64 - 36 = x^2\\28 = x^2\\\pm\sqrt{28} = x\\\pm 5.29 = x[/tex]
So we have two possible values of x.
x = 5.29
and
x = -5.29
Then the points that are at a distance of 8 units from the origin, and that are 6 units away along the y-axis are:
(5.29, 6)
(5.29, -6)
(-5.29, 6)
(-5.29, -6)

You plan to charge $1 for each time a student plays, and the payout for a win is $5. According to your calculations, the probability of a win is .05. What is your expected value for this game? The expected value
Answer:
- $0.75Step-by-step explanation:
For each game played the chance of winning is 0.05 and losing is 0.95.
If the student wins, they get $5 -$1 = $4, but they lose $1.
Expected value is:
4*0.05 - 1*0.95 = -0.75It means you will make $0.75 per average game.

4 t-shirts and a hat costs £31.00
2 t-shirts and a hat costs £17.00.
How much does a t-shirt cost?
How much does a hat cost?
Answer:
t- shirt cost £7, hat cost £3
Step-by-step explanation:
let t represent cost of t- shirt and h represent cost of hat , then
4t + h = 31 → (1)
2t + h = 17 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate h
(4t - 2t) + (h - h) = 31 - 17 , that is
2t = 14 ( divide both sides by 2 )
t = 7
Substitute t = 7 into either of the 2 equations and solve for h
Substituting into (1)
4(7) + h = 31
28 + h = 31 ( subtract 28 from both sides )
h = 3
t- shirt cost £7 and hat cost £3

Answer:
35 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant relation is ...
distance = speed × time
The total distance the trolley traveled is ...
d = (20 mi/h) × (3.5 h) = 70 mi
The distance is the same in both directions, so the trolley traveled half this distance in one direction.
The trolley traveled 35 miles in one direction.

A hose is left running for 240 minutes to 2 significant figures. The amount of water coming out of the hose each minute is 2.1 litres to 2 significant figures. Calculate the lower and upper bounds of the total amount of water that comes out of the hose.
Answer:
Hello,
Step-by-step explanation:
Let say t the time the hose is left running
235 ≤ t < 245 (in min)
Let say d the amount of water coming out of the hose each minute
2.05 ≤ d < 2.15 (why d : débit in french)
235*2.05 ≤ t*d < 245*2.15
481.75 ≤ t*d < 526.75 (litres)
Answer:
Lower bound: [tex]495\; \rm L[/tex] (inclusive.)
Upper bound: [tex]505\; \rm L[/tex] (exclusive.)
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of water from the hose is the product of time and the rate at which water comes out.
When multiplying two numbers, the product would have as many significant figures as the less accurate factor.
In this example, both factors are accurate to two significant figures. Hence, the product would also be accurate to two significant figures. That is:
[tex]240 \times 2.1 = 5.0 \times 10^{2}\; \rm L[/tex] ([tex]500\; \rm L[/tex] with only two significant figures.)
Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the amount of water in liters. For [tex]x\![/tex] to round to [tex]5.0 \times 10^{2}\; \rm L[/tex] only two significant figures are kept, [tex]495 \le x < 505[/tex]. That gives a bound on the quantity of water from the hose.
Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth, if necessary.

Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf x \approx 1.9}}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
We are asked to find x, a missing side in a triangle.
This is a right triangle because there is a small square in the corner representing a 90 degree or right angle. Therefore, we can use right triangle trigonometry. The three main functions are:
sinθ= opposite/hypotenuse cosθ= adjacent/hypotenuse tanθ= opposite/adjacentExamine the triangle. We will use angle S, measuring 54 degrees, for theta. Side QR, measuring x, is opposite angle S. Side QS, measuring 2.3, is the hypotenuse because it is opposite the right angle. Since we have the opposite and hypotenuse, we will use sine.
[tex]sin \theta = \frac {opposite}{hypotenuse}[/tex]
θ= 54opposite= x hypotenuse = 2.3[tex]sin (54)= \frac{ x}{2.3}[/tex]
We are solving for x, so we must isolate the variable. It is being divided by 2.3 The inverse operation of division is multiplication, so we multiply both sides by 2.3
[tex]2.3* sin (54)= \frac{x}{2.3}*2.3[/tex]
[tex]2.3* sin (54)=x[/tex]
[tex]2.3*0.8090169944=x[/tex]
[tex]1.860739087 =x[/tex]
Round to the nearest tenth. The 6 in the hundredth place to the right tells us to round the 8 up to a 9.

x is approximately 1.9

An experiment consists of 400 observations and four mutually exclusive groups. If the probability of a randomly selected item being classified into any of the four groups is equal, then the expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is ________.
Answer:
The expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is 100.
Step-by-step explanation:
For each observation, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it will be classified into group 1, or it will not. The probability of an observation being classified into group 1 is independent of any other observation, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.
Binomial probability distribution
Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.
The expected value of the binomial distribution is:
[tex]E(X) = np[/tex]
400 observations
This means that [tex]n = 400[/tex]
Four mutually exclusive groups. The probability of a randomly selected item being classified into any of the four groups is equal.
This means that [tex]p = 0.25[/tex]
Then the expected number of items that will be classified into group 1 is
[tex]E(X) = np = 400*0.25 = 100[/tex]
100 is the answer.

Express the prime number 19 as the difference of two squares? 19 =
Answer:
The two squares are 81 and 100, and their difference is 19
Step-by-step explanation:
Hey there!
Let's take out the square of 1st ten natural numbers to find out the exact answer.
1² = 1
2² = 4
3² = 9
4² = 16
5² = 25
6² = 36
7² = 49
8² = 64
9² = 81
10² = 100
Now; You can take any of these numbers and subtract from their squares.
So, let's check 6² and 5²
36-25 = 11 which is not equal to 19
Again check for 10²-9²
100 - 81 = 19 (True value)
Therefore, 19 can be expressed as the difference of square of 10 and 9.
Hope it helps!

Calculate the minimum number of subjects needed for a research study regarding the proportion of respondents who reported a history of diabetes using the following criteria:
95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.
Answer:
The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.
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 z-score that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}[/tex].
The margin of error is:
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
95% confidence level
So [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex], z is the value of Z that has a p-value of [tex]1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975[/tex], so [tex]Z = 1.96[/tex].
95% confidence, within 5 percentage points, and a previous estimate is not known.
The sample size is n for which M = 0.05. We don't know the true proportion, so we use [tex]\pi = 0.5[/tex]
Then
[tex]M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.05 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}[/tex]
[tex]0.05\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05}[/tex]
[tex](\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.05})^2[/tex]
[tex]n = 384.16[/tex]
Rounding up:
The minimum number of subjects needed is 385.
