A random sample of 8 cigarettes of a certain brand has an average nicotine content of 4.2 milligrams and a standard deviation of 1.4 milligrams. Is this in line with the manufacturer’s claim that the average nicotine content does not exceed 3.5 mg? Use a 0.01 level of significance and assume the distribution of nicotine contents to be normal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0793 > 0.01, which means that we have a result in line with the manufacturer's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

Manufacturer’s claim that the average nicotine content does not exceed 3.5 mg

This means that the null hypothesis is given by:

[tex]H_{0}: \mu = 3.5[/tex]

And the alternate hypothesis is:

[tex]H_{a}: \mu > 3.5[/tex]

The test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

In which X is the sample mean, [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis, [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation and n is the size of the sample.

3.5 is tested at the null hypothesis

This means that [tex]\mu = 3.5[/tex]

A random sample of 8 cigarettes of a certain brand has an average nicotine content of 4.2 milligrams and a standard deviation of 1.4 milligrams.

This means that [tex]n = 8, X = 4.2, \sigma = 1.4[/tex]

Value of the z-statistic:

[tex]z = \frac{X - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{4.2 - 3.5}{\frac{1.4}{\sqrt{8}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = 1.41[/tex]

Pvalue of the test:

We are testing if the mean is higher than 3.5.

The sample mean found is of 4.2, and we have to find the probability of finding a sample mean at least as large as this, which is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of z = 1.41.

z = 1.41 has a pvalue of 0.9207

1 - 0.9207 = 0.0793

0.0793 > 0.01, which means that we have a result in line with the manufacturer's claim.

Step-by-step explanation:

The answer is D. 6 is the whole number with no decimal after it so it goes before the decimal. Then we add the numbers after the decimal. 0.2 is the same as 0.20 so we add 0.20 plus 0.09 which gets us 0.29. Lastly, we add this all together and get a total of 6.29. Hope this helps!

Answers

Answer:

you will pay $60

Step-by-step explanation:

25% (1/4) of 80 is 20

subtract 20 from the total (80)

80 - 20 = 60

$60

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

So if you get 25% off, you're basically paying 75%.

So first, convert the percentage to a decimal:

75% = 75/100 = 0.75

Now just multiply the decimal by the total cost:

80$ (0.75) = $60

l = √(144x²)

l = 12x

x²+z = 103

x² = 103-z

x = √(103-z)

for x = -9 and 9    (103-z) must equal 81

z = 103 - 81 = 22

x = √(103-22)

x = √81

x = -9 , 9

1. Subtract 11 from both sides

x + 11 = 35

x = 24

Answer:

x is 24

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's write it down as an equation

If number x is increased by 11, we'll write is as x+11 and the result of that is 35, so x + 11 = 35

x + 11 = 35 implies that

x = 35 - 11

35 - 11 = 24

x = 24

Answer:

C = 4.94   M = 18.38

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way is to graph both equaitons and see where they intersect,

see the image

or solve by substitution

6C + 47M=893.50           C = (893.50 - 47M)/6

25C + 22M=527.86

25((893.50 - 47M)/6)  + 22M = 527.86

25/6 [(893.50) - 47M] + 22M = 527.86

25/6 [ - 47M] + 22M = 527.86 - 25/6 [(893.50)

22M - 25(47M)/6  = -3195.06

22M - 195.83M  = -3195.06

      -173.83M   =   -3195.06

One day last summer, Tommy decided to take a drive into the countryside.

After a few hours' drive he arrived at a farm stand. Tommy was so excited by the sight of all those fresh fruits and veggies, that he tripped getting out of his MG and knocked over a huge basket of eggs. And of course they all broke!

He asked the farmer how many eggs were in the basket because he obviously wanted to compensate her for them. She said she didn't know exactly.

"But I do know,' she said, "that this morning I decided the eggs would be easier to sell if they weren't in a big basket but if they were in little paper bags.

"So when I took all my eggs and placed two in each bag I had one left over. I didn't like that so I took the eggs and I put three in each bag. And when I did that, I also had one left over.
"When I put four in each bag, I had one left over. When I put five in a bag or six in a bag, I had one left over. And when I put seven in a bag, I had none left over."


So here's the question: what's the smallest number of eggs that Tommy should have to pay for?

Answers

Answer:

  301

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for the remainder to be 1 when the number is divided by 2, 3, 4, 5, or 6, it must be 1 more than a common multiple of those numbers. The least common multiple is ...

  3·4·5 = 60

So, we want a number that is 1 more than a multiple of 60 and is divisible by 7. This gives us the Diophantine equation ...

  7m -60n = 1 . . . . . where m and n are integers

Perhaps the easiest way to solve this is to try values of n between 0 and 6. We find that n=5 and m=43 will be the smallest positive value of m that satisfies this equation. This makes the number of eggs be 7×43 = 301.

Tommy should have to pay for 301 eggs.
