Minute Maid states that a bottle of juice contains 473 mL. Consumer groups are interested in determining if the bottles contain

less than the amount stated on the label. To test their claim, they sample 30 bottles. The sample mean was 472mL and the standard deviation is 0.2.
What does mu represent here?
A. The average contents of all bottles of juice in the sample, which is unknown.
B. The average contents of all bottles of juice in the population, which is unknown.
C. The average contents of all bottles of juice in the population, which is 472mL.
D. The average contents of all bottles of juice in the sample, which is 472mL.

Answer:

Option C) The average contents of all bottles of juice in the population, which is 473 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 473 mL

Sample mean, \bar{x} = 472 mL

Sample size, n = 30

Sample standard deviation, σ = 0.2

First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

H_{0}: \mu = 473\text{ mL}\\H_A: \mu < 473\text{ mLinches}

Representation of \mu

  • \mu is the population parameter that represents the population mean.

Thus, for the given situation \mu represents:

Option C) The average contents of all bottles of juice in the population, which is 473 mL

Suppose that the duration of a particular type of criminal trial is known to be normally distributed with a mean of 21 days and
Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

0.33411

The probability that a particular criminal trial lasted atleast 24 days is 0.33411

Step-by-step explanation:

The random variable X is normally distributed with a mean of 21 and standard deviation of 7

;

X ~ N(μ = 21 ; σ = 7)

X ~ N(21, 7)

Probability that a trial lasted atleast 24 days :

P(X ≥ 24) :

The standardized score :

Z = (x - μ) / σ ; (24 - 21) / 7 ; 3 / 7 = 0.4286

Hence,

P(Z ≥ 0.4286) = 0.33411

The probability that a particular criminal trial lasted atleast 24 days is 0.33411

One way to measure whether the trees in the Wade Tract are uniformly distributed is to examine the average location in the north
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

Null hypothesis be H₀ : μ = 100

Alternative hypothesis Hₐ : μ < 100

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the average location of Wade Tract is 100

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have;

Let our null hypothesis be H₀ : μ = 100 Average location of trees in the Wade Tract is 100

Our alternative hypothesis becomes Hₐ : μ < 100 at 95% confidence level

Proposed average location in Wade Tract, μ = 100

Sample mean, \bar x = 99.74

Standard deviation, s = 58

Sample size, n = 584

The t test formula is therefore;

t=\frac{\bar{x}-\mu }{\frac{s }{\sqrt{n}}}

Therefore, with df = 584 -1 = 583, and α = (1 - 0.95)/2 = 0.025

We have t_{\alpha /2} = -1.65

Plugging in the values into the t test formula, we have t = -0.108338, from which the p-value is given as p = 0.4569 which is much more than the value of α, therefore, we accept the null hypothesis as follows;

There is sufficient statistical evidence to suggest that the average location of Wade Tract = 100.

In the roof truss, line BG bisects ∠ABC and ∠DEF, m∠ABC= 112°, and ∠ABC≅∠DEF.
Dennis_Churaev [7]

In the given diagram,  line BG bisects ∠ABC and ∠DEF, m∠ABC= 112°, and ∠ABC≅∠DEF.  So the measure of angles are :

1. m∠DEF=  112° because ∠ABC≅∠DEF

2. m∠ABG=  56° because a straight line BG is bisecting ∠ABC in two equal parts. So, \frac{112}{2} = 56

3. m∠CBG=  56° because ∠ABG and ∠CBG are equal.

4. m∠DEG=  56° because ∠ABG ≅ ∠DEG

The national average for mathematics SATs in 2011 was 514 and the standard deviation was approximately 40. a) Within what bounda
blondinia [14]

Answer:

0.75 = 1-\frac{1}{k^2}

If we solve for k we can do this:

\frac{1}{k^2}= 1-0.75=0.25

\frac{1}{0.25}= k^2

k^2 =4

k =\pm 2

So then we have at last 75% of the data withitn two deviations from the mean so the limits are:

Lower = \mu -2\sigma = 514- 2*40=434

Upper = \mu +2\sigma = 514 + 2*40=594

Step-by-step explanation:

We don't know the distribution for the scores. But we know the following properties:

\mu = 514 , \sigma =40

For this case we can use the Chebysev theorem who states that "At least 1 -\frac{1}{k^2} of the values lies between \mu -k\sigma and \mu +k\sigma"

And we need the boundaries on which we expect at least 75% of the scores. If we use the Chebysev rule we have this:

0.75 = 1-\frac{1}{k^2}

If we solve for k we can do this:

\frac{1}{k^2}= 1-0.75=0.25

\frac{1}{0.25}= k^2

k^2 =4

k =\pm 2

So then we have at last 75% of the data withitn two deviations from the mean so the limits are:

Lower = \mu -2\sigma = 514- 2*40=434

Upper = \mu +2\sigma = 514 + 2*40=594
