A drug company is considering marketing a new local anesthetic. The effective time of the anesthetic the drug company is currently producing has a normal distribution with a mean of 7.4 minutes with a standard deviation of 1.2 minutes. The chemistry of the new anesthetic is such that the effective time should be normally distributed with the same standard deviation, but the mean effective time may be lower. If it is lower, the drug company will market the new anesthetic; otherwise, they will continue to produce the older one. A sample size of 36 results in a sample mean of 7.1. A hypothesis test will be done to help make the decision. True or False: If the level of significance had been chosen as 0.05, the company would market the new anesthetic.

Answers

Answer 1

Testing the hypothesis using the z-distribution, it is found that the statement is False.

At the null hypothesis, we test if the mean is still of 7.4 minutes, that is:

[tex]H_0: \mu = 7.4[/tex]

At the alternative hypothesis, we test if the mean is of less than 7.4 minutes, that is:

[tex]H_1: \mu < 7.4[/tex]

We have the standard deviation for the population, thus, the z-distribution is used. The test statistic is given by:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

The parameters are:

[tex]\overline{x}[/tex] is the sample mean. [tex]\mu[/tex] is the value tested at the null hypothesis. [tex]\sigma[/tex] is the standard deviation of the sample. n is the sample size.

For this problem, the values of the parameters are as follows: [tex]\overline{x} = 7.1, \mu = 7.4, \sigma = 1.2, n = 36[/tex].

Hence, the value of the test statistic is:

[tex]z = \frac{\overline{x} - \mu}{\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = \frac{7.1 - 7.4}{\frac{1.2}{\sqrt{36}}}[/tex]

[tex]z = -1.5[/tex]

The p-value of the test is the probability of finding a sample mean of 7.1 or lower, which is the p-value of z = -1.5.

Looking at the z-table, z = -1.5 has a p-value of 0.0668.

Since the p-value of the test is 0.0668 > 0.05, there is not enough evidence to conclude that the time is lower, hence the statement is False.

Answer:

36.87

Step-by-step explanation:

Sine rules says:

. sin x = opposite / hypotenuse

We just substitute in the values

. sin x = 3 / 5

. sin x = 0.6

Now we use sin inverse to find the value of the angle

. x = sin^-1(0.6) = 36.87

[tex]\sin \angle A = \dfrac{3}{5} \\\\\implies \angle A = \sin^{-1} \left( \dfrac 35 \right) = 36.87^{\circ}[/tex]

A box contains orange balls and green balls. The number of green balls is seven more than three times the number of orange balls. If there are 103 balls altogether, then how many green balls and how many orange balls are there in the box?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = orange ball count

y = green ball count

y = 3x + 7

x + (3x + 7) = 103

4x = 96

x = 24 orange balls

y = 103 - 24 = 79 green balls

or

y = 3(24) + 7 = 79

Solve for z.
57 = –10z +7

Answers

Answer:

z = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation 57 = -10z + 7, and we want to solve for z

In order to solve an equation for a variable, we want to isolate that variable on one side; in other words, we want just z on one side of the equation.

So that means that we'll need to get rid of everything else that's also on the right side. That starts with subtracting 7 from both sides:

57 = -10z + 7

-7             -7

_____________

50 = -10z

Now on the right side, there aren't any other extra terms, but remember: we want just z (also written as 1z, with the coefficient of 1), not z written with a coefficient of -10

If you divide a number by itself, the result is 1. For example. [tex]\frac{3}{3}[/tex]= 1. So in order to get a coefficient of 1, let's divide both sides by -10

[tex]\frac{50}{-10} = \frac{-10z}{-10}[/tex]

Divide, and cancel:

The zeros cancel out, leaving the equation as:

[tex]\frac{5}{-1} = \frac{-1z}{-1}[/tex]

Dividing a number by -1 is pretty much the same as multiplying a number by -1; it simply changes the sign of the number

So 5/-1 will become -5, while -1z/-1 will become 1z, or z

Hence:

-5 = z, or written the other way: z = -5

We found z.

Hope this helps!

borrow: $21,056.60interest: $1,983.40

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between the monthly payment (A) and the principal borrowed (P) is ...

  A = P(r/12)/(1 -(1 +r/12)^-n)

where the annual interest rate is r and n is the number of monthly payments.

Then the principal P can be found as ...

  P = $384(12/0.036)(1 -(1 +0.036/12)^-60) ≈ $21,056.60 . . . loan amount

The sum of payments is ...

  $384 × 60 = $23,040.

The difference between the payments made and the loan principal amount is the interest paid:

  $23,040.00 -21,056.60 = $1,983.40 . . . total interest

The half-life of caffeine in a healthy adult is 4.8 hours. Jeremiah drinks 18 ounces of caffeinated
coffee in the morning. How long will it take for only 60% of the caffeine to remain in his body?

Answers

We want to see how long will take a healthy adult to reduce the caffeine in his body to a 60%. We will find that the answer is 3.55 hours.

We know that the half-life of caffeine is 4.8 hours, this means that for a given initial quantity of coffee A, after 4.8 hours that quantity reduces to A/2.

So we can define the proportion of coffee that Jeremiah has in his body as:

P(t) = 1*e^{k*t}

Such that:

P(4.8 h) = 0.5 = 1*e^{k*4.8}

Then, if we apply the natural logarithm we get:

Ln(0.5) = Ln(e^{k*4.8})

Ln(0.5) = k*4.8

Ln(0.5)/4.8 = k = -0.144

Then the equation is:

P(t) = 1*e^{-0.144*t}

Now we want to find the time such that the caffeine in his body is the 60% of what he drank that morning, then we must solve:

P(t) = 0.6 =  1*e^{-0.144*t}

Again, we use the natural logarithm:

Ln(0.6) = Ln(e^{-0.144*t})

Ln(0.6) = -0.144*t

Ln(0.6)/-0.144 = t = 3.55

So after 3.55 hours only the 60% of the coffee that he drank that morning will still be in his body.
