A politician claims that the mean salary for managers in his state is more than the national mean, $83 comma 000. Assume the the population is normally distributed and the population standard deviation is $8100. The salaries (in dollars) for a random sample of 30 managers in the state are listed. At alphaequals0.02, is there enough evidence to support the claim? Use technology.

Estimate the area under the curve f(x) = 16 - x^2 from x = 0 to x = 3 by using three inscribed (under the curve) rectangles. answer to the nearest integer.

(b) suppose that consolidated power decides to use a level of significance of α = .05, and suppose a random sample of 100 temperature readings is obtained. if the sample mean of the 100 temperature readings is x⎯⎯ = 60.990, test h0 versus ha and determine whether the power plant should be shut down and the cooling system repaired. perform the hypothesis test by using a critical value and a p-value. assume σ = 5. (round your z to 2 decimal places and p-value to 4 decimal places.)

What is the value of the discriminant, b2 ? 4ac, for the quadratic equation 0 = x2 ? 4x + 5, and what does it mean about the number of real solutions the equation has?
