An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, µ, of 13.7 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times is 1.3 minutes. It is claimed that, under new management, the mean completion time has decreased. To test this claim, a random sample of 90 completion times under new management was taken. The sample had a mean of 13.3 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.01 level of significance, the claim that the mean completion time has decreased under new management? Assume that the standard deviation of completion times has not changed. Perform a one-tailed test. Then fill in the table below. Carry your intermediate computations to at least three decimal places, and round your responses as specified in the table. (If necessary, consult a list

In a random sample of 75 eighth grade students scores on a national mathematics assessment test has a mean score of 266. The test result prompts a state school administration to declare that the mean score for the stated eighth graders on this exam is more than 260. Assume the population standard deviation is 34. At a=0.09, is there enough evidence to support the administrations claim? Write the claim mathematically and identify Ho and Ha Find the standardized test statistic z, and its corresponding area

The mean consumption of water per household in a city was 1244 cubic feet per month. Due to a water shortage because of a drought, the city council campaigned for water use conservation by households. A few months after the campaign was started, the mean consumption of water for a sample of 96 households was found to be 1164 cubic feet per month. The population standard deviation is given to be 257 cubic feet. a. Find the p-value for the hypothesis test that the mean consumption of water per household has decreased due to the campaign by the city council. Would you reject the null hypothesis at a = 0.025? Round your answer to four decimal places. p-value = We i b. Make the test of part a using the critical-value approach and a = 0.025. Zobserved Round your answer for z to two decimal places.

A clinic took temperature readings of 250 flu patients over a weekend and discovered the temperature distribution to be Gaussian, with a mean of 101.10 °F and a standard deviation of 0.9070 °F. Use this normal error curve area table to calculate each value. What is the fraction of patients expected to have a fever greater than 103.46 °F? What is the fraction of patients expected to have a temperature between 100.19 °F and 101.73 °F?
A coin-operated drink machine was designed to discharge a mean of 6 fluid ounces of coffee per cup. In a test of the machine, the discharge amounts in 19 randomly chosen cups of coffee from the machine were recorded. The sample mean and sample standard deviation were 5.92 fluid ounces and 0.24 fluid ounces, respectively. If we assume that the discharge amounts are approximately normally distributed, is there enough evidence, to conclude that the population mean discharge, μ, differs from 6 fluid ounces?

Before changes to its management staff, an automobile assembly line operation had scheduled mean completion time of 14.2 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times was 1.3 minutes. An analyst at the company suspects that, under new management, the mean completion time, μ, is now less than 14.2 minutes. To test this claim, a random sample of 100 completion times under new management was taken by the analyst. The sample had a mean of 13.9 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.10 level of significance, the claim that the population mean completion time under new management is less than 14.2 minutes?

A chain of restaurants has historically had a mean wait time of 5 minutes for its customers. Recently, the restaurant added several very popular dishes back to their menu. Due to this, the manager suspects the wait time, μ, has increased. He takes a random sample of 35 customers. The mean wait time for the sample is 5.1 minutes. Assume the population standard deviation for the wait times is known to be 1.1 minutes. Can the manager conclude that the mean wait time is now greater than 5 minutes?

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 160160 engines and the mean pressure was 7.17.1 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 1.01.0. If the valve was designed to produce a mean pressure of 6.96.9 psi, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.010.01 level that the valve performs above the specifications? Step 4 of 6 : Find the P-value of the test statistic. Round your answer to four decimal places.
