The accuracy of a coin-counter machine is gauged to accept nickels with a mean diameter of millimeters 21.21 mm. A sample of 44 nickles was drawn from a reported defective coin-counter machine located near a school. The sample had a sample mean of 21.213 mm and sample standard deviation 0.008 mm. Test the claim that the mean nickel diameter accepted by this coin-counter machine is greater than 21.21 mm. Test at the 0.01 significance level.

It takes an average of 12.8 minutes for blood to begin clotting after an injury. An EMT wants to see if the average will change if the patient is immediately told the truth about the injury. The EMT randomly selected 51 injured patients to immediately tell the truth about the injury and noticed that they averaged 14.1 minutes for their blood to begin clotting after their injury. Their standard deviation was 4.48 minutes. What can be concluded at the the a = 0.01 level of significance? a. For this study, we should use Select an answer b. The null and alternative hypotheses would be: Ho: ? v Select an answer V Hj: ? v Select an answer V c. The test statistic ? v = (please show your answer to 3 decimal places.) d. The p-value = (Please show your answer to 4 decimal places.) e. The p-value is ? va f. Based on this, we should Select an answer v the null hypothesis. g. Thus, the final conclusion is that ...

To compare the dry braking distances from 30 to 0 miles per hour for two makes of automobiles, a safety engineer conducts braking tests for 35 models of Make A and 35 models of Make B. The mean braking distance for Make A is 42 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.7 feet. The mean braking distance for Make B is 45 feet. Assume the population standard deviation is 4.4 feet. At a = 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. Complete parts (a) rari rz (b) Find the critical value(s) and identify the rejection region(s). The critical value(s) is/are (Round to three decimal places as needed. Use a comma to separate answers as needed.)

An energy company wants to choose between two regions in a state to install energy-producing wind turbines. A researcher claims that the wind speed in Region A is less than the wind speed in Region B. To test the regions, the average wind speed is calculated for 60 days in each region. The mean wind speed in Region A is 13.8 miles per hour. Assume the population standard deviation is 2.8 miles per hour. The mean wind speed in Region B is 15.1 miles per hour. Assume the population standard deviation is 3.1 miles per hour. At a = 0.05, can the company support the researcher's claim? Complete parts (a) through (d) below. C.

The diameters of bolts produced in a machine shop are normally distributed with a mean of 5.79 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.07 millimeters. Find the two diameters that separate the top 7% and the bottom 7%. These diameters could serve as limits used to identify which bolts should be rejected. Round to the nearest hundredth if necessary.
The diameter of a spindle in a small motor is supposed to be 4.4 millimeters (mm) with a standard deviation of 0.11 mm. If the spindle is either too small or too large, the motor will not work properly. The manufacturer measures the diameter in a sample of 15 spindles to determine whether the mean diameter has moved away from the required measurement. Suppose the sample has an average diameter of 4.27 mm. H0: Ha: (b) Harry thinks that prices in Caldwell are lower than the rest of the country.
