The average life of light bulbs produced by SABA Electric Co. is believed to be normally distributed with the mean service life

of 950 hours and a standard deviation of 100 hours. A random sample of 100 bulbs is tested and it has a mean life of 930 hours. Can it be concluded that the mean service life of the bulbs is less than the expectation at significant level of 0.01?

Answer:

We cannot conclude that the mean life of the bulbs is less than 950h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Be,

Sample mean (MX) = 930h

Population standard deviation (sigma) = 100h

Sample size (n) = 100

Significance level (alpha) = 0.01

Null hypothesis (H0): Mu = 950

Alternative hypothesis (Ha): Mu <950

Population mean in the null hypothesis (Mu0) = 950

Critical value (Z-alpha) = -2.32635.

The test statistic in this case is given by:

$Z_{c} = \frac{(MX - Mu0)}{\sqrt{\frac{sigma^{2}}{n} } } = -2.000$

Since $Z_{c}$ is greater than Z-alpha, it is decided not to reject H0. That is, we cannot conclude that the average life of the bulbs is less than 950h.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

12,600mg per 21 days

Step-by-step explanation:

200mg three times a day → (200mg)(3) = 600mg per a day

21 days → (21)(600mg) = 12,600mg per 21 days

For the month of June, Mae Green budgeted the following amounts: $180 for food, $475 for rent, $15 for transportation, $50 for i

ycow [4]

Question 1

Total budget = 180 + 475 + 15 + 50 + 65 + 25 + 150 + 30 = $990
Real spending = 182 + 475 + 12 + 65 + 68 + 12.50 + 150 + 36 = $1000.5

Mae Green didn't stay within the allocated budget

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

Question 2

Eleanor:
Income = 380.48
Spending = 16.50

Peter:
Income = 120 + 13.65 + 100 = 233.65

Total income = 233.65 + 380.48 - 16.50 = 597.63

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

Question 3

Total spent = 540 + 48.55 + 34.15 + 12.80 + 18.95 + 38.60 + 2 + 6.50 = 701.55

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

Question 4

Marie's new balance = 250.65 - [21.95+48.50+75.60] + 55 = $159.50

In 154 N38 what digit should be replaced to N to make the number divisible by 3,6 and 9?

JulsSmile [24]

Answer:

$N = 6$ so that number becomes divisible by 3, 6 and 9.

Step-by-step explanation:

In Number Theory there is a rule of thumb which states that sum of digits of a multiple of 3 equal 3 or a multiple of three. If we know that $n = 154N38$ , then its sum of digits is:

$x = 1 + 5+4+N+3+8$

$x = 21+N$ (Eq. 1)

We have to determine which digits corresponds to multiples of three, there are four digits:

N = 0

$x = 21+0$

$x = 21$ ( $3\times 7 = 21$ )

N = 3

$x = 21+3$

$x = 24$ ( $3\times 8 = 24$ )

N = 6

$x = 21+6$

$x = 27$ ( $3\times 9 = 27$ )

N = 9

$x = 21+9$

$x = 30$ ( $3\times 10 = 30$ )

We get the following four distinct options: 154038, 154338, 154638, 154938. Now we find which number is divisible by 6 and 9 by factor decomposition:

$154038 = 2\times 3\times 25673$

$154338 =2\times 3\times 29 \times 887$

$154638 = 2\times 3\times 3\times 11\times 11\times 71$

$154938 = 2\times 3\times 7\times 7\times 17\times 31$

It is quite evident that $N = 6$ so that number becomes divisible by 3, 6 and 9.

The equation can be used to determine the number of centimeters, y, in a given number of inches, x. The equation was used to f

Vitek1552 [10]

Answer:

25 Inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the table:

$\left|\begin{array}{c|c|c|c|c}\text{Number of Inches}&2&10&&40\\\text{Number of Centimeters}&5.08&25.04&63.5&101.6\end{array}\right|$

We want to determine the missing value on the table.

Let the missing value be x.

1 inch = 2.54 cm

x inch = 63.5

Expressing the above as a ratio

$\dfrac{1}{x}=\dfrac{2.54}{63.5} \\$Cross Multiply$\\2.54x=63.5\\$Divide both sides by 2.54$\\x=25 \:Inches$

Therefore, the missing value is 25.
