The mean braking distance for Make A is 43 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.6 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 46 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.5 feet. At α=0.10, can the engineer support the claim that the mean braking distances are different for the two makes of automobiles? Assume the samples are random and independent, and the populations are normally distributed. The critical value(s) is/are Find the standardized test statistic z for μ1−μ2.A random sample of 11 size AA batteries for toys yield a mean of 2.98 hours with standard deviation, 1.19 hours.

- In the year 2033, Sarai Patterson is a leading traveling nurse. Sarai is interested in reducing the mean recovery time for patients after experiencing a serious injury (assume recovery times are normally distributed). Suppose the mean recovery time is presently 8.6 months. Sarai takes a random sample of 46 patients that have experienced serious injury to participate in a new treatment program and finds the sample mean is 8.1 months and a sample standard deviation of 1.2 months. Using α = 0.05, answer the following questions. a) What is the setup for your null and alternative hypothesis? b) What is the value of the test statistic? c) What is/are the critical value(s)?A fiber spinning process currently produces a fiber whose strength is normally distributed with a mean of 75 Pa. The minimum acceptable strength is 65Pa. If 10% of the fiber produced by the current method fails to meet the minimum specifications, what is the standard deviation of fiber strengths in the process? If the mean remains at 75 Pa, what must the standard deviation be so that only 1% of the fiber will fail to meet the specifications? Given that the standard deviation is 5Pa, to what value must be mean be set so that only 1% of the fiber will fail to meet the specifications?A consumer group claims that the mean minimum time it takes for a sedan to travel a quarter mile is greater than 14.5 seconds. A random sample of 24 sedans has a mean minimum time to travel a quarter mile of 15.4 seconds and a standard deviation of 2.09 seconds. At α=0.01 is there enough evidence to support the consumer group's claim? Complete parts (a) through (d) below. Assume the population is normally distributed.
- The average number of miles a person drives per day is 24. A researcher wishes to see if people over age 60 drive less than 24 miles per day. She selects a random sample of 40 drivers over the age of 60 and finds that the mean number of miles driven is 22.7. The population standard deviation is 2.9 miles. At =α0.01, is there sufficient evidence that those drivers over 60 years old drive less than 24 miles per day on average? Assume that the variable is normally distributed. Use the critical value method with tables. State the hypotheses and identify the claim with the correct hypothesis.A manufacturing firm has been averaging 18.2 orders per week for several years. However, during recession orders appeared to slow. Suppose the firm's production manager randomly samples 32 weeks and finds a sample mean of 15.6 orders. The population standard deviation is 2.3 orders. Test to determine whether the average numbers of orders is down by using a = 0.05, critical value = +1.96A random sample of 10 observations from population A has sample mean of 152.3 and a sample standard deviation of 1.83. Another random sample of 8 observations from population B has a sample standard deviation of 1.94. Assuming equal variances in those two populations, a 99% confidence interval for μA − μB is (-0.19, 4.99), where μA is the mean in population A and μB is the mean in population B. (a) What is the sample mean of the observations from population B? (b) If we test H0 : μA ≤ μB against Ha : μA > μB, using α = 0.02, what is your conclusion?
