4. Hydrocarbons in the cab of an automobile were measured during trips on the New Jersey Turnpike and trips through the Lincoln

pochemuha

Answer:

No these these result do not differ at 95% confidence level

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The first concentrations is $c _1= 30.0 \ g/m^3$

The second concentrations is $c _2 = 52.9 \ g/m^3$

The first sample size is $n_1 = 32$

The second sample size is $n_2 = 32$

The first standard deviation is $\sigma_1 = 30.0$

The first standard deviation is $\sigma_1 = 29.0$

The mean for Turnpike is $\= x _1 = \frac{c_1}{n} = \frac{31.4}{32} = 0.98125$

The mean for Tunnel is $\= x _2 = \frac{c_2}{n} = \frac{52.9}{32} = 1.6531$

The null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu _1 - \mu_2 = 0$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu _1 - \mu_2 \ne 0$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$t = \frac{\= x_1 - \= x_2}{ \sqrt{\frac{\sigma_1^2}{n_1} +\frac{\sigma_2^2}{n_2} }}$

$t = \frac{0.98125 - 1.6531}{ \sqrt{\frac{30^2}{32} +\frac{29^2}{32} }}$

$t = - 0.0899$

Generally the degree of freedom is mathematically represented as

$df = 32+ 32 - 2$

$df = 62$

The significance $\alpha$ is evaluated as

$\alpha = (C - 100 )\%$

=> $\alpha = (95 - 100 )\%$

=> $\alpha =0.05$

The critical value is evaluated as

$t_c = 2 * t_{0.05 , 62}$

From the student t- distribution table

$t_{0.05, 62} = 1.67$

So

$t_c = 2 * 1.67$

=> $t_c = 3.34$

given that

$t_c > t$ we fail to reject the null hypothesis so this mean that the result do not differ

How much heavier is a 9 1/8 pound box than a 2 5/6 pound box?

tatuchka [14]

<span>So let’s simplify the given situation.
We need to find out how much heavier is 91/8 lbs. compare to 2 5/6 lbs.
Since, it’s a combination of whole number and fraction; we cannot directly subtract this given equation. We need to convert the two given number into a fraction.
9 1/8 = 8 x 9 = 72 + 1 = 73, 73 is our numerator and 8 is our denominator
=> 73/8
2 5/6 = 6 x 2 = 12 + 5 = 17, 17 is our numerator and 6 is our denominator
=> 17/6

Now, we have 2 fractions with unlike denominator. In order to get a common denominator, we have to find their least common factor.

=> <u>73</u> - <u>17 </u> = <u>73 x 6 </u> - <u>17 x 8 </u> <u>
</u>       8      6        8 x 6      6 x 8</span><span>
=> <u>438</u> – <u>136 </u> Now, we have the same denominator, subtract</span><span>
      48       48
=> <u>302 </u> or <u>151</u>
       48          24
=> 6 <u>7</u>
       24
Therefore 9 1/8 lbs. is 6 7/24 lbs. heavier than 2 5/6 lbs.</span>

Ariana has $1.40 worth of nickels and dimes. She has twice as many nickels as dimes. Determine the number of nickels and the num

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

14 nickels

7 dimes

Step-by-step explanation:

1. find out how many dimes there has to be to get $1.40

1 dime= .10

1.40/.10=14 dimes

14/2=7

so there are 7 dimes

since a nickel is half the amount of a dime there will be twice as many to make up the other half which is $0.70

.70/.05=14

there are 14 nickels

proof:

$0.10(7)+$0.05(14)= $1.40

hope this helps!
