An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 140 engines an pressure was 5.4 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 1.0. If the valve was designed to produce a m of 5.6 psi, is there sufficient evidence at the 0.01 level that the valve performs below the specifications? Step 3 of 6: Specify if the test is one-tailed or two-tailed.

Matthew wants to estimate the mean fat content of a pack of potato chips manufactured by UniBee Foods. He wants to be 90% confident that the estimate is accurate within 0.5 mg. Old records showed a 1.2 mg standard deviation. What should be the minimum sample size that he needs to construct this estimate?
A sample of 14 small bags of the same brand of candies was selected. Assume that the population distribution of bag weights is normal. The weight of each bag was then recorded. The mean weight was 2 ounces with a standard deviation of 0.12 ounces. The population standard deviation is known to be 0.1 ounce. x = σ = sx = n = n − 1 =
Biological oxygen demand (BOD) is a pollution index that is monitored in the treated effluent of paper mills. A certain paper mill has taken 31 samples over the past 3 months. The mean and standard deviation for the sample data are 3.42 and 0.728 ppm respectively. The mill would like to see if this sample indicates that the true average BOD in their treated effluent exceeds the targeted 3.00 ppm. Let ? = 0.05. A) The test statistic, (ttest), for this data set is: Note: Round your answer to the nearest hundredth.B) The p-value is: C) The statistical decision and corresponding English interpretation for this study are: Fail to reject Ha: conclude that the true BOD in treated effluent exceeds 3 ppmFail to reject Ho: we cannot conclude that the true BOD in treated effluent exceeds 3 ppm Reject Ha: we cannot conclude that the true BOD in treated effluent exceeds 3 ppmReject Ho: conclude that the true BOD in treated effluent exceeds 3 ppm

Attenuation is the reduction of the amplitude of a signal, electric current, or other oscillation. With maximum attenuation, a scanner will not be able to read a bar code at a fixed distance. After substantial amount of data collection, a group of instrumentation engineers decided to model a variation of maximum attenuation of scanners as a normal distribution with a mean of 10.1 decibels and standard deviation of 2.7, same unit. What proportion of the products have maximum attenuation greater than 15.1 dB? 0.0718 none of these 0.0322 0.0214

The director of research and development is testing a new medicine. She wants to know if there is evidence at the 0.05 level that the medicine relieves pain in more than 399 seconds. For a sample of 10 patients, the mean time in which the medicine relieved pain was 406 seconds with a standard deviation of 18. Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5: Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places. Kenad
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 7.9 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 24 samples is 8.1 ppm with a variance of 0.25. Does the data support the claim at the 0.1 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 5 of 5: Make the decision to reject or fail to reject the null hypothesis.
The level of calcium in the blood of healthy young adults follows a normal distribution with mean u = 10 milligrams per deciliter and standard deviation s = 0.4. A clinic measures the blood calcium of 100 healthy pregnant young women at their first visit for prenatal care. The sample mean of these 100 measurements is X = 9.8. Is this evidence that the mean calcium level in the population from which these women come is less than 10? To answer this question, we perform the following hypothesis test: H0: u = 10, Ha: u < 10. What is the test statistic? (use two decimal places in your answer) What is the p-value equal to? At the 10% significance level, do you accept or reject the null hypothesis? Answer ACCEPT or REJECT t the 5% significance level, do you accept or reject the null hypothesis? Answer ACCEPT or REJECT
Our environment is very sensitive to the amount of ozone in the upper atmosphere. The level of ozone normally found is 4.6 parts/million (ppm). A researcher believes that the current ozone level is at an excess level. The mean of 14 samples is 4.9 ppm with a variance of 1.2 Does the data support the claim at the 0.01 level? Assume the population distribution is approximately normal. Step 2 of 5 : Find the value of the test statistic. Round your answer to three decimal places.

The average price of a sample of 12 bottles of diet salad dressing taken from different stores is $1.43. The standard deviation is $0.09. The average price of a sample of 16 low-calorie frozen desserts is $1.03. The standard deviation is $0.10. At α = 0.05, is the price of salad dressings significantly higher than the price of frozen desserts?
