aev [14]

Answer:

1. M=108

2. μ=110

3. In the explanation.

4. Test statistic t = -1.05

5. P-value = 0.1597

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete: to solve this problem, we need the sample information: size, mean and standard deviation.

We will assume a sample size of 10 matches, a sample mean of 108 points and a sample standard deviation of 6 points.

1. The mean points is the sample points and has a value of 108 points.

2. The null hypothesis is H0: μ=110, meaning that the mean score is not significantly less from 110 points.

3. This is a hypothesis test for the population mean.

The claim is that the mean score is significantly less than 110.

Then, the null and alternative hypothesis are:

H_0: \mu=110\\\\H_a:\mu< 110

The significance level is 0.05.

The sample has a size n=10.

The sample mean is M=108.

As the standard deviation of the population is not known, we estimate it with the sample standard deviation, that has a value of s=6.

The estimated standard error of the mean is computed using the formula:

s_M=\dfrac{s}{\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{6}{\sqrt{10}}=1.9

4. Then, we can calculate the t-statistic as:

t=\dfrac{M-\mu}{s/\sqrt{n}}=\dfrac{108-110}{1.9}=\dfrac{-2}{1.9}=-1.05

The degrees of freedom for this sample size are:

df=n-1=10-1=9

5. This test is a left-tailed test, with 9 degrees of freedom and t=-1.05, so the P-value for this test is calculated as (using a t-table):

\text{P-value}=P(t

As the P-value (0.1597) is bigger than the significance level (0.05), the effect is  not significant.

The null hypothesis failed to be rejected.

There is not enough evidence to support the claim that the mean score is significantly less than 110.

On average, water flows over a particular water fall at a rate of 2.05 x 105 cubic feet per second. One cubic foot of water weig
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

5.024 × 10^8 tons /day

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to deal with conversion

We are told in the question that:

On average, water flows over a particular water fall at a rate of 2.05 x 10^5 cubic feet per second.

Water flow rate = 2.05 × 10^5 ft³/s

From the question,

One cubic foot of water weighs 62.4 lb.

1 ft³ = 62.4 lb

1 ton = 2200 lb

We are to calculate the flow rate in tons per day

Hence,

1 ft³ = 62.4 lb

2.05 × 10^5 ft³ =

Cross Multiply

2.05 × 10^5 × 62.4

= 12792000lb

Hence the water flow rate = 12792000lb/s

From the question,

2200 lb = 1 ton

12792000 Ib =

Cross Multiply

12792000lb × 1 ton/2200 lb

= 5814.5454545 tons

Hence the water flow rate = 5814.5454545 tons/second

We want the flow rate to be in tons/day

1 ton / second = 86400 tons / day

5814.5454545 tons/second = x tons/ day

Cross Multiply

x = 5814.5454545 tons/second × 86400 tons /day/ 1 ton / second

= 502376727.27 tons/day

= 5.0237672727 × 10^8 tons/day

Approximately ≈ 5.024 × 10^8 tons /day

Therefore, the rate of water flow in tons of water per day is 5.024 × 10^8 tons of water /day

The hypotenuse of a 45°-45°-90° triangle measures 10 StartRoot 5 EndRoot in. A right triangle is shown. The hypotenuse has a len
suter [353]

Answer:

5\sqrt{10}\ units

5 StartRoot 10 EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The legs of a 45°-45°-90° triangle are congruent

Let

x ---->  the length of one leg of the triangle

Applying the Pythagorean Theorem

c^2=a^2+b^2

where

c is the hypotenuse

a and b are the legs

we have

c=10\sqrt{5}\ units

a=b=x\ units

substitute

(10\sqrt{5})^2=x^2+x^2

500=2x^2\\x^2=250\\x=\sqrt{250}\ units

Simplify

x=5\sqrt{10}\ units

5 StartRoot 10 EndRoot
