The time needed for all college students to complete a certain paper-and-pencil maze follows a normal distribution with a population mean of 30 seconds and a population standard deviation of 3 seconds. You wish to see if the mean time μ (where μ stands for population mean) is changed by vigorous exercise, so you have a group of nine college students exercise vigorously for 30 minutes and then complete the maze. It takes them an sample average of 31.2 seconds to complete the maze. Use this information to test the hypotheses:

H0: μ = 30,

Ha: ≠30

at the significance level of 0.01.

You conclude:

a) There is not enough evidence to support the claim.

b) There is enough evidence to support the claim.

The correct option is a

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The population mean is  

    The standard deviation is  

     The sample size is  n  = 9

    The null hypothesis is

     The alternative hypothesis is  

    The level of significance is  

    The sample mean is  

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

=>  

=>  

From the z table  the area under the normal curve to the right corresponding to  1.2  is    

Generally the p-value is mathematically represented as

=>      

=>      

From the value obtained w can see that

          hence

The decision rule is  

Fail to reject the null hypothesis

The conclusion is there is not enough evidence to support the claim

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%

d 25 pi/6

step-by-step explanation:

the diameter is 10 inches

the radius is 1/2 of the diameter or 5 inches

the area of the circle is

a = pi r^2

  = pi 5^2

  = 25 pi

the slice is 60 degrees of the entire circle.

60 degrees out of 360   60/360 = 1/6

the area of the slice is 1/6 of the circle

a slice = 1/6 a circle

a slice = 1/6 * 25 pi
