Solution Steps

Step 1: Isolate the variable term

To isolate the variable term, we rearrange the inequality to get \(ax > c - b\).

Step 2: Solve for \(x\)

Dividing both sides of the inequality by \(a\) gives us \(x > \frac{c - b}{a}\).

Step 3: Calculate the solution

Substituting the given values into the formula, we calculate \(k = \frac{7 - (-2)}{3} = 3\), leading to \(x > 3\).

Final Answer:

The solution to the inequality is x > 3.

To test for any significant difference in the number of hours between breakdowns for four machines, the following data were obtained. Machine 1 Machine 2 Machine 3 Machine 4 ------------ 6.7 8.8 10.9 9.9 8.0 7.5 10.0 12.8 5.6 9.5 9.5 12.0 7.7 10.3 9.9 10.7 8.8 9.2 8.8 11.3 7.6 9.9 8.5 11.7 (a) At the α=0.05 level of significance, what is the difference, if any, in the population mean times among the four machines? State the null and alternative hypotheses. H0: μ1=μ2=μ3=μ4 Ha: Not all the population means are equal. Find the value of the test statistic. (Round your answer to two decimal places.) Find the p-value. (Round your answer to three decimal places.) p-value = State your conclusion. - Do not reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time between breakdowns is not the same for the four machines. - Reject H0. There is sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time between breakdowns is not the same for the four machines. - Do not reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time between breakdowns is not the same for the four machines. - Reject H0. There is not sufficient evidence to conclude that the mean time between breakdowns is not the same for the four machines.
