A random sample of 225 nails in a manufacturing company is gathered. The engineer specified length of a nail must be 8 centimeters having a standard deviation of 0.04 centimeters. It shows that the average weight of the nails is 8.055 centimeters. Do the produced nails exceed the specification of the engineer at a 1% level of significance. 1. What is the decision in the hypothesis testing? 2. What is the conclusion in the hypothesis testing?

The height of seaweed of all plants in a body of water are normally distributed with a mean of 10 cm and a standard deviation of 2 cm. Use Excel to find which length separates the lowest 30% of the means of the plant heights in a sampling distribution of sample size 15 from the highest 70%? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.
I also need the standardized test statistic and whether it's required to reject or fail to reject the hypothesis and interpret the decision in the context of the original claim
Many cheeses are produced in the shape of a wheel. Because of the differences in consistency between these different types of cheese, the amount of cheese, measured by weight, varies from wheel to wheel. Heidi Cembert wishes to determine whether there is a significant difference, at the 10% level, between the weight per wheel of Gouda and Brie cheese. She randomly samples 18 wheels of Gouda and finds the mean is 1.3 lb with a standard deviation of 0.3 lb; she then randomly samples 10 wheels of Brie and finds a mean of 0.95 lb and a standard deviation of 0.21 lb. What is the df and p-value for Heidi's hypothesis of equality? Assume normality. (Give your answer correct to four decimal places.)
For a random sample of 47 high school seniors in the United States in 2019, the average of typical sleep time on a school night is 6.8 hours with a standard deviation of 1.2 hours. (Source: Data are downloaded from U.S. Census at School a) We want to test if the mean sleep time on a school night for all high school seniors in the United States is less than 7 hours.

A sample of 20 observation is selected from a normal population, the sample mean is 2.78 and the standard deviation is 0.83. Another sample of 18 observation was selected and the mean is 2.63 with standard deviation of 0.75. Test at 0.01 level of significance. What is the computed value and decision.

Consider the sample of 106 body temperatures. Assume that the standard deviation of the population is known to be 0.62°F. Use a 0.05 significance level to test the claim that the mean body temperature of the population is equal to 98.6°F, as is commonly believed. Find the statistic, p-value and the critical value (or values). Is there sufficient evidence to conclude that the common belief is wrong?

Bolts produced by a machine are acceptable provided that the length is within the range from 5.95 to 6.05 centimeters. Suppose that the bolts produced by the machine are normally distributed with a mean of 6 cm with a standard deviation of 0.02 cm. What percentage of bolts produced by the machine will be acceptable?
A professional racing team is holding tryouts at its test track. The team requires its drivers to have an average lap time of at most 133 seconds at its test track. The team will use a one sample z-test of significance to determine if they should hire a new driver. An amateur driver completes 8 timed laps of the test track with an average lap time of 136 seconds. If the standard deviation of all lap times at this track is 4.1 seconds, what is the value of the test statistic? Round your answer to two decimal places.
It is said that a person’s height changes from morning to night, possibility in response to gravity compressing the spinal columns and the joints in the legs. The height of 14 persons (an equal number of men and women) were measured in the morning and at night and it was discovered that the average height in the morning was 1.750 m and 1.735 m. The mean change in height was 1.5 cm with a sample standard deviation of 3 cm. Any height change in the human population is known to be distributed normally. Is it correct to say that the true average change in height from morning to night is 2.5 cm with a significance level of 0.1)?
