A manufacturer of sprinkler system in office buildings claim that the true average system activation temperature is 54°c . A sample of n-9 systems, when tested, yields a sample average activation temperature of 54.57°c. If the distribution of activation time is normal with standard deviation 0.85°c, does the data contradict manufacturer's claim at significance level.

The gasoline consumption projected for a car model is 13 km / l. After the launch of the vehicle, a specialized magazine carried out a test that showed 1300 cars, an average consumption of 12.3 km / l. The manufacturer claims that the standard deviation of consumption is 0.5 km / l. test the hypothesis that consumption is at least 13km / l.
The products that a company is exporting in the United States have an average of 3 weeks lead time and a standard deviation of 0.5 week. Seven products are measured and assumed to be normally distributed, what percentage of the products have shorter lead time than 2.8 weeks?
A company that runs a chain of quick oil change centers, tries to attract customers by claiming that it completes oil changes faster than its competition. So it periodically estimates the time taken to do oil changes at its centers. From historical records, the company knows that the population standard deviation of oil change duration is 15 minutes. Recently, 40 customers were asked how much time they spent getting an oil change at one of their centers. Based on the sample data, the chain concluded that the average oil change time for the population of all its customers was between 15 and 25 minutes. What was the confidence level at which the inference was made?
a) Soil has been improved to increase the strength of a ground. The average compressive strength of 61 samples before treatment is 45 kg / cm2 and the standard deviation is 6.75 kg / cm2; The average compressive strength of 56 samples after the improvement is 52.5 kg / cm2 and the standard deviation is 8 kg / cm2. Determine whether the improvement application changes the standard deviation of the soil strength or not at the 5% significance level .b) Find the confidence intervals at the 7% significance level of the mean compressive strength of the sample after improvement?
A study showed that females’ body temperatures are approximately normally distributed with a mean of 98.40F, and a population standard deviation of 0.700F. Find the female body temperature at the 90th percentile.
A manufacturer needs coil springs that can stand a load of at least 20.0 pounds. Among two suppliers, Supplier A can provide coil springs that can stand a load of 24.5 pounds with a standard deviation of 2.1 pounds. Supplier B’s springs can stand a load of 23.3 pounds with a standard deviation of 1.6 pounds. Assuming normal distributions, determine which of the two suppliers can provide the manufacturer with the smallest percentage of unsatisfactory springs.
An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 200engines and the mean pressure was 5.4 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 0.8 If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 5.5psi, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.05 level that the valve does not perform to the specifications?
A laboratory claims that the mean sodium level of a healthy adult male is 142 mEq per liter of blood. To test this claim, a random sample of 26 adultspatients is evaluated. The mean sodium level for the sample is 136 mEq per liter of blood. It is known that the population standard deviation of adult sodium levels is 11 mEq. Assume that the population is normally distributed. Can we conclude at the 0.01 level of significance that three population mean adult sodium level differs from that claimed by the laboratory? Perform a two tailed test, then complete the parts below.
Following maintenance and calibration, an extrusion machine produces aluminum tubing with a mean outside diameter of 2.500 inches. As the machine functions over an extended number of work shifts the combination accumulated deposits and mechanical wear causes the mean diameter to drift away from the desired 2.500 inches. For a recent random sample of thirty-four tubes, the mean diameter was 2.491 inches and the standard deviation was 0.027 inches. Does the machine appear to be in need of maintenance and calibration (use α = 0.01)? Also, determine the p-value for the test. a. Provide the hypothesis (2 Points) b. Provide the test statistics formula(s) (3 Points) c. Conduct the calculations and provide results (6 Points) d. Discuss the decision of whether or not rejecting the hypothesis (2 Points) e. Discuss the business conclusion (2 Points)
Healthy females have a mean red blood cell count of 4.8 million cells per microliter of whole blood with a standard deviation of 0.3 million cells per microliter and a mean white blood cell count of 7250 cells per microliter of whole blood with a standard deviation of 1375 cells per microliter. A female patient is given a blood test. Her red blood cell count (RBC) was found to be 4.3 million cells per microliter while her white blood cell count (WBC) was found to be 6100 cells per microliter. (a) Relatively speaking, does this patient have a lower red blood cell count or white blood cell count? (b) Classify as to the type of data and determine the level of measurement for the particular data item : blood cell type (red or white).
