An oil company claims that the sulfur content of its diesel fuel is at most .15 percent. To check this claim, the sulfur content

s of 40 randomly chosen samples were determined; the resulting sample mean and sample standard deviation were .162 and .040.
(a) Calculate the p-value needed to test whether the company’s claim is valid.
(b) Use part (a) to conclude the test at the 5 and 10 percent levels of significance.

Answer:

No, it would have to have been greater than .192 to invalidate the claim.

A weather station in a major city in the Northwest kept data about the weather conditions over the past year. The probabilities
Black_prince [1.1K]
It is important to note that all the information's required are already given in the question

Probability that a day will be hot = 0.15 + 0.10
                                                   = 0.25
Probability that a day will be sunny = 0.15 + 0.30 + 0.10
                                                        = 0.55
Adding the above two probabilities, we get = 0.25 + 0.55
                                                                     = 0.80
Now
Probability that a day will be both hot and sunny = 0.15
So
Probability that a day was hot or sunny = 0.80 - 0.15
                                                               = 0.65
I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand.

The following diagram shows parallel lines cut be a transversal. What is the measure of Angle 2?
Crank
2x + 100 = 5x + 55
3x = 45
x = 15

2(15) + 100 = 130

180-130 = 50

so angle 2 is 50 degrees

The flight path of a golf ball is modeled by the function, F (X) = -0.0 2X^2 Plus 6X, we are X represents the horizontal distanc
umka2103 [35]
Let's solve this problem. We know the equation of <span>the height of the ball that is:

</span>f(x)=-0.02x^{2}+6x
<span>
Where x represents </span><span>the horizontal distance in yards the ball has traveled in the air. We know that a distance is always positive, so we conclude that x must be greater or equal than 0, so:

</span>x \geq 0<span>

The horizontal plane represents the zero of the function, given that there is no possibility for the ball to get negative values, then f(x) is also positive. Finally, from the graph, the appropriate domain is:

</span>\boxed{0 \leq x \leq 300}<span>
</span><span>
</span>

Sue has a crate, open at the top, in the shape of a cuboid. The internal dimensions of the crate are 36cm long by 36cm wide by 6
kondaur [170]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When the stick is placed along the diagonal  of the cuboid , shortest possible length will extend out above top of the crate .

Length of the diagonal

= \sqrt{36^2+36^2+60^2}

= 78.69 cm

the length of the stick that extends out of the crate

= 90 - 78.69

= 11.31 cm

If θ be the angle made by stick with the base

cosθ = hypotenuse of base / diagonal of cuboid

=\frac{\sqrt{2}\times36 }{78.69}

= \frac{50.90 }{78.69}

θ = 50°
