A new cure has been developed for a certain type of cement that results in a compressive strength of 5,000 kilograms per square centimeter and a standard deviation of 120. To test the hypothesis that =5,000 against the alternative that<5,000, a random sample of 50 pieces of cement is tested. The critical region is defined to be x<4970. Find the probability of committing a type 1 error when H0 is true. Evaluate for the alternative =4970 and=4960

A manufacturer has developed a new fishing line, which the company claims have a mean breaking strength of 15 kilograms with a standard deviation of 0.5 kilogram. To test the hypothesis that μ = 15 kilograms against the alternative that μ< 15 kilograms, a random sample of 50 lines will be tested. The critical region is defined to be x < 14.9 a. Find the probability of committing a type I error when H, is true. b. Evaluate ß for the alternatives μ = 14.8 and μ = 14.9 kilograms.
Solve the problem and draw the normal curve with the shaded region representing the given scenario in the problem. The accountants of a known auditing firm have a mean daily salary Php 850 with a standard deviation of Php 82. Find the median and the mode, and compare it with the given mean value. Determine the intervals within 1, 2 and 3 standard deviations from the mean, that is, the µ ± 1σ, µ ± 2σ, µ ± 3σ. Verify that the empirical rule holds that is, approximately, 68%, 95%, and 99% of the data lie within ± 1σ, ± 2σ, ± 3σ units of the mean, respectively. If an accountant from the firm is chosen at random, what is the probability that he /she earning Php 950 to Php 1,000? What percentage of the accountants will fall in between the salary of Php 300 and Php 500?

A mixture of pulverized fuel ash and Portland cement to be used for grouting should have a compressive strength of more than 1,300 KN/m2. The mixture will not be used unless experimental evidence indicates conclusively that the strength specification has been met. Suppose compressive strength for specimens of this mixture is normally distributed with o = 69. Let u denote the true average compressive strength. (a) What are the appropriate null and alternative hypotheses? O Ho: H > 1,300 H: u = 1,300 Ο H,: μ= 1,300 H: u 1,300 (b) Let X denote the sample average compressive strength for n = 15 randomly selected specimens. Consider the test procedure with test statistic X itself (not standardized). What is the probability distribution of the test statistic when Ho is true? O The test statistic has a binomial distribution. O The test statistic has a gamma distribution. The test statistic has a normal distribution. O The test statistic has an exponential distribution. If X = 1,340, find the…
