In a study, researchers wanted to measure the effect of alcohol on the hippocampal region, the portion of the brain responsible for long-term memory storage, in adolescents. The researchers randomly selected 17 adolescents with alcohol use disorders to determine whether the hippocampal volumes in the alcoholic adolescents were less than the normal volume of 9.02 cm cubed. An analysis of the sample data revealed that the hippocampal volume is approximately normal with no outliers and x overbarequals8.19 cm cubed and sequals0.8 cm cubed. Conduct the appropriate test at the alphaequals0.01 level of significance.

The degrees of freedom are given by

The p value would be given by this probability:

Since the p value is lower than the significance level provided of 0.01 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly lower than 9.02 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Information given

represent the sample mean

represent the sample deviation

sample size  

represent the value to verify

represent the significance level for the hypothesis test.  

t would represent the statistic

represent the p value

System of hypothesis to check

We want to check if the true mean is less than the normal value of 9.02 cm^3, the system of hypothesis would be:  

Null hypothesis:  

Alternative hypothesis:  

The statistic for this case is given by:

 (1)  

Replacing the info given we got:

The degrees of freedom are given by

The p value would be given by this probability:

Since the p value is lower than the significance level provided of 0.01 we have enough evidence to reject the null hypothesis and we can conclude that the true mean is significantly lower than 9.02 cm^3

the rocket cannot penetrate the ground, in a contextual sense, therefore the roots of this equation should be the domain of this function. i'll let you find the roots of this quadratic equation (hint: use the quadratic formula:
