A researcher is interested in estimating the mean time it takes adults to learn a certain task. He wants to be 99% confident that the mean time for a sample of adults is within 0.6 minutes of μ. In a small pilot study, the standard deviation of learning times was 6.9 minutes. How large a sample of adults should be tested?
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.
Before changes to its management staff, an automobile assembly line operation had a scheduled mean completion time of 14.2 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times was 1.5 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 50 completion times under new management was taken by the analyst. The sample had a mean of 14.1 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? Assume that the population standard deviation of completion times has not changed under new management. Perform a one-tailed test. Then complete the parts below. Carry your intermediate computations to three or more decimal places, and round your responses as specified below. (If necessary, consult a list of formulas.)
Before changes to its management staff, an automobile assembly line operation had a scheduled mean completion time of 13.3 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times was 1.8 minutes. An analyst at the company suspects that, under new management, the mean completion time, μ, is now less than 13.3 minutes. To test this claim, a random sample of 80 completion times under new management was taken by the analyst. The sample had a mean of 12.8 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.01 level of significance, the claim that the population mean completion time under new management is less than 13.3 minutes?

Assume that an internet provider monitors the amount of time that every customer accesses their home internet connection each day. The amount of time that all of their customers access their home internet connection is normally distributed. They access it for an average of 8.9 hours per day with a standard deviation of 2.1 hours. What proportion of samples of 100 will spend less than an average of 9 hours on their home internet per day? Your answer should have 4 decimal places.

The breaking strengths of cables produced by a certain manufacturer have a mean, μ , of 1850 pounds, and a standard deviation of 50 pounds. It is claimed that an improvement in the manufacturing process has increased the mean breaking strength. To evaluate this claim, 100 newly manufactured cables are randomly chosen and tested, and their mean breaking strength is found to be 1864 pounds.

The mean length of steel bolts from a manufacturing process is advertised as 15.1 mm. An inspector believes that this value is not correct. To investigate the inspector's claim, the lengths of a random sample of size 280 bolts are measured and found to have a sample mean of 15.6 mm. We will assume that the population of bolt lengths is normally distributed with standard deviation of 5.0 mm. Test whether the mean population length has changed at a level of significance of 10%. Show your relevant steps below. Step 1: Hypotheses: • The null hypothesis Ho is (choose one): = 5.0 u = u = 15.1 OH = 15.6 u = 280.0 • For the alternative hypothesis H. 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 value(s) =
Before changes to its management staff, an automobile assembly line operation had a scheduled mean completion time of 12.7 minutes. The standard deviation of completion times was 1.4 minutes. An analyst at the company suspects that, under new management, the mean completion time, μ , is now less than 12.7 minutes. To test this claim, a random sample of 80 completion times under new management was taken by the analyst. The sample had a mean of 12.6 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the population mean completion time under new management is less than 12.7 minutes?

During the busy season, it is important for the shipping manager at ShipMundo to be able to estimate the time it takes the loading crew to load a truck. The shipping manager has found that she can model the load times using a normal distribution with a mean of 152 minutes and a standard deviation of 15 minutes. Use this table or the ALEKS calculator to find the percentage of load times between 116 minutes and 149 minutes according to the model. For your intermediate computations, use four or more decimal places. Give your final answer to two decimal places (for example 98.23%).
