Perchlorate is a chemical used in rocket fuel. People who live near a former rocket-testing site are concerned that perchlorate is present in unsafe amounts in their drinking water. Drinking water is considered safe when the average level of perchlorate is 24.5 parts per billion (ppb) or less. A random sample of 28 water sources in this area produces a mean perchlorate measure of 25.3 ppb. Which of the following is an appropriate alternative hypothesis that addresses their concern? Ha : μ < 25.3 H, a, : , μ, < 25.3 A Ha : μ > 25.3 H, a, : , μ, > 25.3 B Ha : μ < 24.5 H, a, : , μ, < 24.5 C Ha : μ > 24.5 H, a , : , μ, > 24.5 D Ha : μ ≠ 24.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

--- sample size

--- Mean

--- Average

Determine the alternate hypothesis

From the question, we understand that it is safe to drink water at 24.5 ppb or less.

This implies that the null hypothesis is:

i.e.

The opposite of is

So, the alternate hypothesis will be:

Hence: (c) is correct

the slope of the line is 60

one point on the line is (40,10)

step-by-step explanation:

in the equation outside the parenthesis the equation always tells you the slope. in this case it is 60.

in the parenthesis is also says 40 which is x because it is near the x and 10 is y because it is near y.

thats not a system of equations, that is a solution
