An automobile assembly line operation has a scheduled mean completion time, µ, of 15.2 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 70 completion times under new management was taken. The sample had a mean of 15 minutes. Can we support, at the 0.05 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 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.) (a) State the null hypothesis H, and the alternative hypothesis H1- H, :0 H :0 |(b) Determine the type of test statistic to use. (Choose one) O=0 Oso D20 (c) Find the value of the test statistic.

The breaking strengths of cables produced by a certain manufacturer have historically had a mean of 1775 pounds and a standard deviation of 60 pounds. The company believes that, due to an improvement in the manufacturing process, the mean breaking strength, μ, of the cables is now greater than 1775 pounds. To see if this is the case, 90 newly manufactured cables are randomly chosen and tested, and their mean breaking strength is found to be 1788 pounds. Can we support, at the 0.05level of significance, the claim that the population mean breaking strength of the newly-manufactured cables is greater than 1775 pounds? Assume that the population standard deviation has not changed. 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. a. State the null hypothesis H0 and the alternative hyposthesis H1. b. Find the value of the test statistic. c. Find the p-value. d. Can we…

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.
On a measure of running speed on a 100 meter dash, students received timed scores ranging from 12 seconds to 24 seconds. The distribution of running times is normative with a mean of 16 seconds. Transferring this ratio data to standard scores for comparison with the results of classes from other departments, the mean score is assigned a standard score of 100 with a standard deviation of 10. From this example, a standard score of 99 would mean the actual value in seconds for an individual would be about a. 16 b. 12 c. 19 d. 24

The breaking strengths of cables produced by a certain manufacturer have historically had a mean of 1800 pounds and a standard deviation of 90 pounds. The company believes that, due to an improvement in the manufacturing process, the mean breaking strength, μ, of the cables is now greater than 1800 pounds. To see if this is the case, 100 newly manufactured cables are randomly chosen and tested, and their mean breaking strength is found to be 1818 pounds. Can we support, at the 0.05 level of significance, the claim that the population mean breaking strength of the newly- manufactured cables is greater than 1800 pounds?

IQ scores among the general population have a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 14. A researcher claims that the standard deviation, o, of IQ scores for females is not equal to 14. A random sample of 24 IQ scores females had a mean of 98 and a standard deviation of 11.
