A = 0.9 o
so, 
o = a/0.9 = 1.111a 
so, the orange is 11% heavier than the apple.

glad i could help(:

A facilities manager at a university reads in a research report that the mean amount of time spent in the shower by an adult is

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

We conclude that the mean amount of time that college students spend in the shower is equal to 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Population mean, μ = 5 minutes

Sample mean, $\bar{x}$ = 4.61 minutes

Sample size, n = 15

Alpha, α = 0.05

Sample standard deviation, s = 0.75 minutes

a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

$H_{0}: \mu = 5\text{ minutes}\\H_A: \mu \neq 5\text{ minutes}$

We use two-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Formula:

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{\bar{x} - \mu}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}} }$

Putting all the values, we have

$t_{stat} = \displaystyle\frac{4.61 - 5}{\frac{0.75}{\sqrt{15}} } = -2.0139$

c) Now, we calculate the p-value using the standard table.

P-value = 0.0638

d) Since the p-value is greater than the significance level, we fail to reject the null hypothesis and accept the null hypothesis.

We conclude that the mean amount of time that college students spend in the shower is equal to 5 minutes.

Option a) Fail to reject the claim that the mean time is 5 minutes because the P-value is larger than 0.05.

Find the additive inverse of 6-3i.

puteri [66]

Hey there!

In order to find the additive inverse of any number, regardless if it is real or not, you can simply multiply the number by -1 or negate it.

This should look like this:
-(6-3i)
=-6+3i

Therefore, the additive inverse of 6-3i is -6+3i.

**Note: Keep in mind, when the additive inverse of a number is added to the number, the number equals 0:
(6-3i)+(-6+3i)=0

Hope this helps and have a marvelous day! :)

Translate and solve: seventy-eight times n is at least 312.

RideAnS [48]

It translates to $78n \ge 312$ which solves to $n \ge 4$ after dividing both sides by 78. This means n is equal to 4 or it can be larger than 4.
