A manufacturer of chocolate chips would like to know whether its bag filling machine works correctly at the 448.0-gram setting. Based on a 50 bag sample where the mean is 450.0 grams, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.1 level that the bags are overfilled? Assume the standard deviation is known to be 24.0. Step 4 of 5 : Enter the decision rule.

The mean weight of shipping containers is supposed to be no more than 11.7 kg. To test whether or not this value has since increased, a random sample of size 290 containers are weighed and found to have a sample mean of 12.1 kg. We will assume that the population of container weights is normally distributed with standard deviation of 3.7 kg. Test whether the mean population weight has increased at a level of significance of 0.5%. Show your relevant steps below. Step 1: Hypotheses: • The null hypothesis Ho is (choose one): u = 3.7 OH = 11.7 OH = 12.1 u = 290.0 • For the alternative hypothesis Ha we change the equal sign in Ho to (choose one): Step 2: Rejection Region: The rejection region is bounded by the following critical values: Critical z valuete

Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 5.3 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 1030 samples is 5.4 ppm. Assume the standard deviation is known to be 1.1. Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Step 4 of 5 : Enter the decision rule.

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 140 engines and the mean pressure was 5.4 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 1.0. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 5.6 psi, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level that the valve performs below the specifications? Step 3 of 6: Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed.
