The strength of paper used in the manufacturing of cardboard boxes (y) is related to percentage of hardwood concentration in the original pulp (x). Under controlled conditions, a pilot plant manufactures 16 samples, each from differential batch of pulp, and measures the tensile strength. Determine if there is significance relationship between x and y. y = 101, 117, 117, 106, 132, 147, 147, 134, 111, 123, 125, 145, 134, 145, 144, 146.9
x = 1.0, 1.5, 1.5, 1.5, 2.0, 2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.5, 2.5, 2.8, 2.8, 3.0, 3.0, 3.2, 3.3

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.

P-value = 0.003.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we perform a regression analysis relating x and y, we get the best fitting line with equation:

and a correlation coefficient r:

We have to test the hypothesis, where the alternative hypothesis claims that there is a relationship between these two variables, and the null hypothesis claiming there is no relationship (meaning that the correlation is not significantly different from 0).

This can be written as:

where ρ is the population correlation coefficient for x and y.

The significance level is assumed to be 0.05.

The sample size is n=16.

The degrees of freedom are df=14.

The test statistic can be calculated as:

For a test statistic t=2.05 and 14 degrees of freedom, the P-value is calculated as:

The P-value (0.003) is smaller than the significance level (0.05), so the effect is significant enough.

The null hypothesis is rejected.

At a significance level of 0.05, there is enough evidence to claim that there is a significant relationship between x and y.

i believe the correct answer is option 4.principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

which statement correctly defines principalities in northern asia in the 1200s? principalities were small territories that were run by russian rulers.

hope i could ! : )

the total estimated nappy use.=10,500,000

step-by-step explanation:

given that on an average the average baby uses 3528 napkins.

in a particular year 2014, the number of births were 299697 in new south wales.

rounding off the number of births to the nearest hundred thousand we have

no of birtsh = 300000

also rounding off the average usage to nearst thousand we get

average use of a baby = 3500

hence total number of nappy estimated to be used = 3500x300000

= 10,500,000

answer is 10,500,000 nappies
