The designer of a new sheet metal stamping machine claims that their new machine can turn out a certain product faster than the machine now in use. Nine independent trials of stamping the same item on each machine gave the following results on times to completion:.
Standard Machine: n1 = 9, x̄1 = 35.22 seconds, s1² = 24.4375 seconds²
New Machine: n2 = 9, x̄2 = 31.56 seconds, s2² = 20.0275 seconds²
Given the aforementioned data, the hypotheses H0: µ1 - µ2 ≤ 0 and H1: µ1 - µ2 > 0, α = 0.05, and assuming that the both machines have the same variance, is there evidence to substantiate the designer’s claim?

Last year, Mona Header failed the test, but claimed that this was due to the early hour. (The fitness test is traditionally given at 5 AM on a Sunday morning.) In fact, a study by the ESU Physical Education Department suggested that 48% of athletes fit enough to play on the team would fail the soccer test, although no unfit athlete could possibly pass the test. It also estimated that 42% of the athletes who take the test are fit enough to play soccer. Assuming these estimates are correct, what is the probability that Mona was justifiably dropped?

- 3. Each of a group of 20 intermediate tennis players is given two rackets, one having nylon strings and the other synthetic gut strings. After several weeks of playing with the two rackets, each player will be asked to state a preference for one of the two types of strings. Let p denote the proportion of all such players who would prefer gut to nylon, and let X be the number of players in the sample who prefer gut. Because gut strings are more expensive, consider the null hypothesis that at most 50% of all such players prefer gut. We simplify this to H0: p = .5, planning to reject H0 only if sample evidence strongly favors gut strings. (a) Is a significance level of exactly .05 achievable? If not, what is the largest α smaller than .05 that is achievable? (b) If 60% of all enthusiasts prefer gut, calculate the probability of a type II error using the significance level from part (a). Repeat if 80% of all enthusiasts prefer gut.
