Answer:

7 pots per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

A potter works 4 days a week, makes 14 pots per day and charges $24 a pot.

She earns =

4 (days) × 14 (pots) × 24 (charge) = $1,344

Now we have to find out number of pots production per day to make the same amount in a week, if she lowers her price to $16.

Let the number of pots now be x

Therefore,

$1,344 = (4) (x) (16)

1,344 = 64x

x = 1,344 ÷ 64

x = 21 pots per day

She already makes 14 pots. so the increment of the making pots would be

21 - 14 = 7 pots.

She must increase her production of 7 pots per day to make the same amount.

Answer:

The sides of ∆ABC are 30 units, 40 units, and 60 units long.

The perimeter will be = 30+40+60=130 units

Given is that ∆ABC and ∆XYZ are similar and the corresponding sides of ∆XYZ are 'r' times as long as the sides of ∆ABC.

So, perimeter of ∆XYZ will be : 130\times r=130r units.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The area of ∆ABC is n square units, so area of ∆XYZ will be :

\frac{1}{2}(r\times height)(r\times base)

= n\times r\times r

= nr^{2} square units.

Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let  individual time taken by Anthony, Brian and Chris = t1 , t2 , t3 respectively

So, total time taken by A & B  = 1 / t1  + 1 / t2 , lets suppose = 10  {i}

Total time taken by A & C = 1 / t1  + 1 / t3 , lets suppose = 15 {ii}

Total time taken by B & C = 1 / t2  + 1 / t3 , lets suppose = 20 {iii}

From {i} , 1 / t2 = 10 - 1 / t1

From {ii} 1 / t1 = 15 - 1 / t3

By above two eqtns ,  1 / t2 = 10 - (15 - 1 / t3)

1 / t2 = 1 / t3 - 5

Putting in {iii} , 1 / t3 - 5 + 1 / t3 = 20

2 / t3 = 25

t3 = 12.5

Three assembly lines are used to produce a certain component for an airliner. To examine the production rate, a random sample of
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

a) Reject H₀

b) [0.31; 3.35]

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

a) The objective of this example is to compare if the population means of the production rate of the assembly lines A, B and C. To do so the data of the production of each line were recorded and an ANOVA was run using it.

The study variable is:

Y: Production rate of an assembly line.

Assuming that the study variable has a normal distribution for each population, the observations are independent and the population variances are equal, you can apply a parametric ANOVA with the hypothesis:

H₀ μ₁= μ₂= μ₃

H₁: At least one of the population means is different from the others

Where:

Population 1: line A

Population 2: line B

Population 3: line C

α: 0.01

This test is always one-tailed to the right. The statistic is the Snedecor's F, constructed as the MSTr divided by the MSEr if the value of the statistic is big, this means that there is a greater variance due to the treatments than to the error, this means that the population means are different. If the value of F is small, it means that the differences between populations are not significant ( may differ due to error and not treatment).

The critical region is:

F_{k-1;n-k; 1-\alpha } = F_{2;15; 0.99} = 6.36

If F ≥ 3.36, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Looking at the given data:

F= \frac{MSTr}{MSEr}= 11.32653

With this value the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

Using the p-value method:

p-value: 0.001005

α: 0.01

The p-value is less than the significance level, the decision is to reject the null hypothesis.

At a level of 5%, there is significant evidence to say that at least one of the population means of the production ratio of the assembly lines A, B and C is different than the others.

b) In this item, you have to stop paying attention to the production ratio of the assembly line A to compare the population means of the production ratio of lines B and C.

(I'll use the same subscripts to be congruent with part a.)

The parameter to estimate is μ₂ - μ₃

The populations are the same as before, so you can still assume that the study variables have a normal distribution and their population variances are unknown but equal. The statistic to use under these conditions, since the sample sizes are 6 for both assembly lines, is a pooled-t for two independent variables with unknown but equal population variances.

t=  (X[bar]₂ - X[bar]₃) - ( μ₂ - μ₃) ~t_{n_2+n_3-2}

Sa√(1/n₂+1/n₃)

The formula for the interval is:

(X[bar]₂ - X[bar]₃) ± t_{n_2+n_3-2; 1 - \alpha /2}* Sa\sqrt{*\frac{1}{n_2} + \frac{1}{n_3} }

Sa^{2} = \frac{(n_2-1)*S_2^2+ (n_3-1)*S_3^2}{n_2+n_3-2}

Sa^{2} = \frac{(5*0.67)+ (5*0.7)}{6+6-2}

Sa^{2} = 0.685

Sa= 0.827 ≅ 0.83

t_{n_2+n_3-2;1-\alpha /2}= t_{10;0.995} = 3.169

X[bar]₂ = 43.33

X[bar]₃ = 41.5

(43.33-41.5) ± 3.169 * *0.83\sqrt{*\frac{1}{6} + \frac{1}{6} }

1.83 ± 3.169 * 0.479

[0.31; 3.35]

With a confidence level of 99% you'd expect that the difference of the population means of the production rate of the assemly lines B and C.

I hope it helps!
