The mean breaking strength of a ceramic insulator must be at least 10 psi. The process by which this insulator is manufactured must show equivalence to this standard. If the process can manufacture insulators with a mean breaking strength of at least 9.5 psi, it will be considered equivalent to the standard. A random sample of 50 insulators is available, and the sample mean and standard deviation of breaking strength are 9.32 psi and 0.21 psi, respectively. a. State the appropriate hypotheses that must be tested to demonstrate equivalence.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

H0: u ≥ 9.5

Ha:  u < 9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The null hypothesis and the alternate hypothesis are reverse of each other.

The claim is either set as the null or alternate hypothesis

The null hypothesis  is : H0: u ≥ 9.5  the mean breaking strength of a ceramic insulator is at least 9.5 which is considered equivalent to the standard.

The alternate hypothesis is: Ha:  u < 9.5 the mean breaking strength of a ceramic insulator is less than 9.5 which is  not considered equivalent to the standard.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because when two angles of a traiangle are equal, it is obvious that the third angle of the triangles is equal too. Therefore, when all three angles of a triangle are equal, they are similar with the third-angle theorem.

A rock falls off a balcony. It's height (in feet) is given by the formula f(x)=-16t^2+13.4t+120, where t is measured in seconds. How long will it take the rock to hit the ground? Round your answers to the nearest three decimal places.

Answers

Answer:

  3.189 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

You want f(t) = 0, so ...

  0 = -16t^2 +13.4t +120

  0 = t^2 -0.8375t -7.5 . . . . divide by -16

  0 = (t^2 -0.8375t +0.41875^2) -7.5 -0.41875^2 . . . . complete the square*

  0 = (t -0.41875)^2 -7.6753515625 . . . . write as a square

  √7.6753515625 = t -0.41875 . . . . . . . . add 7.67... and take positive root

  t = 0.41875 +√7.6753515625 ≈ 3.189192 . . . . add 0.41875

It will take the rock about 3.189 seconds to hit the ground.

_____

* We complete the square by adding the square of half the coefficient of the linear term (= (-0.8375/2)^2) inside parentheses and subtracting the same amount outside parentheses. This gives a form inside parentheses that is ...

  (t^2 -2at +a^2) = (t -a)^2

Completing the square is complicated a little bit by a leading coefficient that is not 1. That is why we divided by -16 first.

The probability of finding a broken cookie in a bag of chocolate chip cookies is P = .03. Find the probability of getting at least 2 broken cookies in a bag containing 36 cookies

Answers

P(at least 2 broken cookies) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

How to find the  probability of getting at least 2 broken cookies in a bag containing 36 cookies

To find the probability of getting at least 2 broken cookies in a bag containing 36 cookies, we need to calculate the probability of getting 2, 3, 4, ..., up to 36 broken cookies and then sum up those probabilities.

The probability of getting exactly 2 broken cookies can be calculated using the binomial probability formula:

P(X = k) = C(n, k) * p^k * (1 - p)^(n - k)

Using the formula, we can calculate P(X = 2):

P(X = 2) = C(36, 2) * (0.03)^2 * (1 - 0.03)^(36 - 2)

Similarly, we can calculate P(X = 3), P(X = 4), and so on, up to P(X = 36).

Once we have calculated all these probabilities, we can sum them up to find the probability of getting at least 2 broken cookies:

P(at least 2 broken cookies) = P(X = 2) + P(X = 3) + P(X = 4) + ... + P(X = 36)

P(at least 2 broken cookies) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

To calculate P(X = 0), we can use the binomial probability formula with k = 0, and for P(X = 1), we can use the formula with k = 1.

Once we have calculated P(X = 0) and P(X = 1), we can substitute them into the equation:

P(at least 2 broken cookies) = 1 - P(X = 0) - P(X = 1)

This will give us the probability of getting at least 2 broken cookies in a bag containing 36 cookies.

From the records of a health-insurance companies in Pennsylvania, it is known that 58% of the accounts include dental coverage. A researcher would like to take a random sample of 500 accounts to review. Find the standard deviation of the sample proportion in this situation. Give your answer to 4 decimal places. For help on how to input a numeric answer, please see "Instructions for inputting a numeric response."

Answers

Answer: 0.0221

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the formula to find the standard deviation of the sample proportion is :

\sigma_p=\sqrt{(p(1-p))/(n)}

, where p = proportion of success.

n= sample size.

As per given , we have

p=0.58

n= 500

Then, the standard deviation of the sample proportion in this situation would be :

\sigma_p=\sqrt{(0.58(1-0.58))/(500)}\n\n=\sqrt{(0.2436)/(500)}\n\n=√(0.0004872)\n\n\approx0.0221

Hence, the standard deviation of the sample proportion in this situation is 0.0221 .
