A manufacturer of air conditioners seeks to ensure that their air conditioners are efficient enough that they will use no more than 2800 watt/hr under typical usage.The quality control department has tested a sample of 63 air conditioner units and found an average energy use of 7000 watts/hr. From previous tests, it can safely be assumed that the population standard deviation is 10000 watts/hr. Use the p-value approach and a 0.01 level of significance to test to see if the air conditioners are using too much energy. What is the P value?
While performing a strenuous task, the pulse rate of 25 workers increased on the average by 18.4 beats per minute with a standard deviation of 4.9 beats per minute. Use the 0.05 level of significance to test the null hypothesis that = 30.0 for such increases in the pulse rate (while performing the given task) against the alternative hypothesis that < 30.0. Also construct a 95% confidence interval for the corresponding population standard deviation.
The bottlers of the new soft drink “Guzzle” are experiencing problems with the filling mechanism for their 16 floz bottles. To estimate the standard deviation of the fill volume, the filled volume for 20 bottles was measured, yielding a sample standard deviation of 0.1 floz. Compute a 95% confidence interval for the standard deviation σ.
The mean height of 50 male students who showed above-averageparticipation in college athletics was 68.2 inches (in) with a standarddeviation of 2.5 in, while 50 male students who showed no interest in suchparticipation had a mean height of 67.5 in with a standard deviation of2.8 in. Test the hypothesis that male students who participate in collegeathletics are taller than other male students at 0.1 level.
The local police department attempted to estimate the average vehicle speed along a strip of the main street. Using a hidden radar, the speed of a random group of 32 vehicles was measured, yielding a sample average of 36 mph. Assume a population standard deviation of 4 mph Police are adding a new warning sign on Main Street, which they assume will reduce average speeds. The null hypothesis is that the new speed has not changed, with an average content of 36 mph and a standard deviation of 4 mph. After the sign is raised, the average speed of 4 vehicles is measured at 34 miles per hour. i. What is the z score of this change, under the sampling distribution of the null? ii. Should we use a one - tailed or two - tailed test? iii. What is the p value for this z score under this test?
A simple random sample of 40 inner city gas stations shows a mean price for regular unleaded gasoline to be $3.45 with a standard deviation of $0.05, while a simple random sample of 120 suburban stations shows a mean of $3.38 with a standard deviation of $0.08. Create a 98% confidence interval for the difference of means for gas prices in the inner city versus the suburbs.
A STAT130 student who uses a laptop issued by ICS, believes that the average speed at which it downloads lecture slides is slower than the required speed of 25 kilobits per second (Kb/s). He would like to conduct a hypothesis test, using a 1% level of significance, to see if his belief could be correct. This student collects a random sample of 15 ICS issued laptops and checks their download speed. The sample average speed obtained is 24 Kb/s with a standard deviation of 3 Kb/s. When will the null hypothesis be rejected? When the test statistic is less than -2.624 When the test statistic is less than -2.326 or greater than 2.326 When the test statistic is less than -2.624 or greater than 2.624 When the test statistic is greater than 2.624. When the test statistic is less -2.326 The student constructs the following 95% confidence interval for the average speed at which the ICS issued laptops download lecture slides: ( 22.3; 25.7 ) Thus, the student can say with 95% confidence, that…
a consumer group clamins that the mean minimum time it takes for a sedan to travela quarter mile is greater than 14.7 seconds. A random sample of 22 sedans has a mean minimum time to travel a quarter mile of 15.4 seconds and a standard deviation of 2.10 seconds. At alpha= 0.10, do you have enough evidence to support the consumer group's claim?
An engineer who is studying the tensile strength of a steel alloy intended for use in golf club shafts knows that tensile strength is approximately normally distributed with a standard deviation of 60 psi. A random sample of 12 specimens has a mean tensile strength of 3,250 psi. Test the hypothesis that the mean strength is 3,250 psi. Use a 0.05 significance level. Null and Alternative Hypothesis is?
A sample of 5 water speciments selected for treatment found a sample mean of arsenic concentration of 24.3 and sample standard deviation of 4.1. Using the t-distribution and assuming a normal population distribution, calculate a 90% upper confidence bound for the standard deviation of the arsenic concentration.
A company which produces batteries claims that the life expectancy of their batteries is at least 90 hours. Totest the claim, a consumer interest group tested a random sample of 40 batteries. The test resulted to a mean life expectancy of 87 hours. Using a 0.05 level of significance, can it be concluded that the life expectancy of their batteries is less than 90 hours? Assume that the population standard deviation is known to be 10 hours.
A survey of nonprofit organizations showed that online fundraising has increased in the past year. Based on a random sample of 50 nonprofits, the mean one-time gift donation in the past year was $31, with a standard deviation of $7. Construct a 90% confidence interval estimate for the population one-time gift donation. __ ≤μ≤ __ (Type integers or decimals rounded to two decimal places as needed.)
