The accuracy of a coin-counter machine is gauged to accept nickels with a mean diameter of millimeters 21.21 mm. A sample of 45 nickles was drawn from a reported defective coin-counter machine located near a school. The sample had a sample mean of 21.214 mm and sample standard deviation 0.013 mm. Test the claim that the mean nickel diameter accepted by this coin-counter machine is greater than 21.21 mm. Test at the 0.05 significance level. (a) Identify the correct alternative hypothesis Ha: Ομ= 21.21 Ομ< 21.21 Ομ> 21.21 Give all answers correct to 4 decimal places. (b) The test statistic value is: (c) Using the Traditional method, the critical value is: (d) Based on your answers above, do you:
Inverse Normal Distribution
The method used for finding the corresponding z-critical value in a normal distribution using the known probability is said to be an inverse normal distribution. The inverse normal distribution is a continuous probability distribution with a family of two parameters.
Mean, Median, Mode
It is a descriptive summary of a data set. It can be defined by using some of the measures. The central tendencies do not provide information regarding individual data from the dataset. However, they give a summary of the data set. The central tendency or measure of central tendency is a central or typical value for a probability distribution.
Z-Scores
A z-score is a unit of measurement used in statistics to describe the position of a raw score in terms of its distance from the mean, measured with reference to standard deviation from the mean. Z-scores are useful in statistics because they allow comparison between two scores that belong to different normal distributions.
![(e) Explain your choice in the box below.
(f) Based on your work above, choose one of the following conclusions of your test:
O The sample data supports the claim
O There is sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim
O There is not sufficient evidence to warrant rejection of the claim
O There is not sufficient evidence to support the claim
(g) Explain your choice in the box below.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F99db74cb-a52b-4540-9e19-530fc4ba7537%2F6f6502cd-ecbc-46af-8433-a6f0c551f401%2Fwl1mqk_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
