Acertain type of stainless steel powder is supposed to have a mean particle diameter of µ = 15µm. a random sample of 87 particles had a mean diameter of 15.2 µm, with a standard deviation of 1.8 µm. a test is made of h0 : µ = 15 versus h1 : µ =! 15. a. find the p-value. b. do you believe it is plausible that the mean diameter is 15 µm, or are you convinced that it differs from 15 µm? explain your reasoning.

Time (minutes) amount of water (gallons) practice 1. jin fills up a 510-gallon pool in the backyard for her children. she fills it with the garden hose at a rate of 17 gallons per minute. after it is filled, she lets it sit for 30 minutes in order to let the water temperature rise. the children then get in and have fun for an hour. the pool loses about 5 gallon of water each minute due to their splashing and playing. at the end of the hour, they tear the pool while getting out, which causes a leak the pool then begins to lose water at a rate of 2 gallons per minute. a. complete the table to show the amount of water in the pool after each minute. b. create a graph to model the problem situation. include when the pool will be empty. c. write a piecewise function that models this problem situation. explain your reasoning for each piece of the function. d. identify the x- and y-intercept. explain what they mean in terms of the problem situation, atamantha a cul 80 100 120 150 200 ning, inc
