An advertisement for a popular weight-loss clinic suggests that participants in its new diet program lose, on average, more than

10 pounds. A consumer activist decides to test the authenticity of the claim. She follows the progress of 18 women who recently joined the weight-reduction program. She calculates the mean weight loss of these participants as 10.8 pounds with a standard deviation of 2.4 pounds. Which of the following are appropriate hypotheses to test the advertisement’s claim?

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The consumer activist wants to prove that participants of the new diet program, on average, lose more than 10 pounds. Then the null hypothesis would be

H0: μ= 10

The null hypothesis indicates that a population parameter (in this case, mu represents the population mean) is equal to a hypothetical value. And the alternative hypothesis is what she expects to prove:

H1: μ> 10

A gas has weight of 5 pounds and a volume of 100 cubic feet. what's the specific volume of this gas
Leya [2.2K]

In thermodynamics, specific volume is considered to be an intrinsic property of matter. What we meant by intrinsic property is that, the value of this property does not change no matter the size of the sample. This is opposite to weight or volume which changes depending on the size of the sample.

By mathematical definition, specific volume is the ratio of the substance’s volume to its mass. Or in other words, this is the reciprocal of density.

The formula for density is:

density = mass / volume

Since specific volume is reciprocal so:

Specific volume = 1 / density = volume / mass

 

Calculating:

Specific volume = 100 ft^3 / 5 pounds

Specific volume = 20 ft^3 / pound

 

Or when asked in units of m^3 / kg, we convert:

Specific volume = (20 ft^3 / pound) (2.2 pound / kg) (1 m^3 / 35.3147 ft^3)

Specific volume = 1.246 m^3 / kg

What is the solution to the linear equation? 2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y – 14 y = –10 y = –1 y = 1 y = 10
svp [43]

2.8y + 6 + 0.2y = 5y – 14

Simplify the left side:

3y +6 = 5y-14

Subtract 3y from both sides:

6 = 2y -14

Add 14 to each side:

2y =20

Divide both sides by 2:

y = 20 / 2

y = 10
