Acredit card company claims that the mean credit card debt for individuals is greater than $5,100.
you want to test this claim. you find that a random sample of 27 cardholders has a mean credit card balance of $ 5,270 and a standard deviation of $550.
at α=0.10, can you support the claim? complete parts (a) through (e) below. assume the population is normally distributed.

(a) write the claim mathematically and identify h0 and ha.

(b) find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s).

what is(are) the critical value(s), t0?

(c) find the standardized test statistic t.

(d) decide whether to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.

(e) interpret the decision in the context of the original claim.

We conclude that that there is enough evidence to support the claim mean credit card debt for individuals is greater than $5,100.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:  

Population mean, μ = $5,100

Sample mean, = $ 5,270

Sample size, n = 27

Alpha, α = 0.10

Sample standard deviation, s = $550

a) First, we design the null and the alternate hypothesis

We use one-tailed t test to perform this hypothesis.

b) Formula:

Putting all the values, we have

c) Now,

Since,                    

d) We fail to accept the null hypothesis, and accept the alternate hypothesis.

e) We conclude that that there is enough evidence to support the claim mean credit card debt for individuals is greater than $5,100.

infinitely many solutions

step-by-step explanation:

we have been given the equation;

2(2x + 3) = -4 + 2(2x + 5)

we need to determine the value of x.

2(2x + 3), we expand this expression to obtain 4x + 6

similarly 2(2x + 5) will become 4x + 10

now we have;

4x + 6 = -4 + 4x + 10

4x + 6 = 4x + 10 - 4

4x + 6 = 4x + 6

the expression on the left hand side is identical to the one on the right hand side. therefore, we are looking at just a single straight line whose equation is;

y = 4x + 6

consequently, we shall have infinitely many solutions
