Answer from: kukisbae

$t=\frac{120-100}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{10}}}=3.16$

$p_v =2*P(t_{9}3.16)=0.012$

If we compare the p value and a significance level assumed $\alpha=0.05$ we see that p_v so we can conclude that we can reject the null hypothesis, and the true mean is significantly different from 100 at 5% of significance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

$\bar X=120$ represent the sample mean

s=20 represent the standard deviation for the sample

n=10 sample size

$\mu_o =100$ represent the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.

t would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

p_v represent the p value for the test (variable of interest)

State the null and alternative hypotheses to be tested

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to determine if the mean is different from 100, the system of hypothesis would be:

Null hypothesis: $\mu = 100$

Alternative hypothesis: $\mu \neq 100$

Compute the test statistic

We don't know the population deviation, so for this case is better apply a t test to compare the actual mean to the reference value, and the statistic is given by:

$t=\frac{\bar X-\mu_o}{\frac{s}{\sqrt{n}}}$ (1)

t-test: "Is used to compare group means. Is one of the most common tests and is used to determine if the mean is (higher, less or not equal) to an specified value".

We can replace in formula (1) the info given like this:

$t=\frac{120-100}{\frac{20}{\sqrt{10}}}=3.16$

Now we need to find the degrees of freedom for the t distirbution given by:

df=n-1=10-1=9

Conclusion

Since is a tao tailed test the p value would be:

$p_v =2*P(t_{9}3.16)=0.012$

Answer from: Romo2486

The sample mean is significantly different from the population mean.

Step-by-step explanation:

Null hypothesis: The sample mean is the same as the population mean.

Alternate hypothesis: The sample is significantly different from the population mean

Test statistic (t) = (sample mean - population mean) ÷ (sd/√n) = (120 - 100) ÷ (20/√10) = 20 ÷ 6.32 = 3.16

n = 10

degree of freedom = n - 1 = 10 - 1 = 9

From the t-distribution table, critical value corresponding to 9 degrees of freedom and 5% significance level is 2.262

The test is a two tailed, therefore the region of no rejection of the null hypothesis lies between -2.262 and 2.262.

Conclusion:

Reject the null hypothesis because the test statistic 3.16 lies outside the region bounded by the critical values.

The sample mean is significantly different from the population mean.

Submarines control how much they float or sink in the ocean by changing the volume of air and water contained in large ballast tanks. when the tanks are completely full of water, the submarine increases its overall mass and sinks down to the bottom. when the tanks are completely full of air, the submarine reduces its overall mass and floats to the surface. depending on the density of the seawater surrounding the submarine, it will pump seawater in or out of the tanks in order to achieve the same overall density as the sea water and float neutrally in the water. the volume of the submarine never changes. when the tanks are completely full of water, a submarine with a volume of 7.8\times10^3\text{ m}^37.8×10 3 m 3 7, point, 8, times, 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript has a total mass of 8\times10^6\text{ kg}8×10 6 kg8, times, 10, start superscript, 6, end superscript, space, k, g. the density of the seawater is 10^3\text{ kg/m}^310 3 kg/m 3 10, start superscript, 3, end superscript, space, k, g, slash, m, start superscript, 3, end superscript. to make that submarine float neutrally, and neither float nor sink in the ocean, what volume of water does that submarine need to subtract from its tanks?
